Lotus Honolulu at Diamond Head

The rooms are so relaxing , the design and luxury. Staff all very kings and friendly.

The restaurant was overpriced. There needs to be a breakfast and bar area.

Great location! Easy 5 min beach walk on Waikiki to all it provides, yet away from the crowds for privacy. Easy access to roads leading to Diamond Head, Hanauma Bay and the Lighthouse, as well as highways leading everywhere else. Complimentary beach chairs, towels and insulated water bottles were fabulous for exploring other beaches around the island!! On site laundry facilities we a bonus, too!

My 10-day stay at Lotus was a wonderful and memorable experience. The reception staff were always smiling and responsive. They also responded to my requests via chat. Although the building was old, I was impressed by how well-maintained it was. The room was a good size for two adults. We considered dining on the second floor a few times, but since they brought complimentary wine along with the meal, We ended up ordering room service several times instead. We enjoyed meals while taking in the view of Diamond Head and the ocean from the lanai. One thing I thought uncountable was the bed linens had a slight body odor. I was using a bath towel as a pillowcase. The linen perfume placed by the bedside was too strong for me, so unfortunately, we couldn’t use it. Even so, the warmth of the staff really left a lasting impression on me. I would love to stay here again if I have a chance.

We stayed in room 624, slightly older style. This room had a partial ocean view, but the mountain view was actually more impressive. The bathroom was nice and big and clean. The bed was comfortable and the white sheets were very clean. Loved having coffee and a fridge as well. Restaurant was phenomenal as well.

The only thing was the price, I wish it would have been a little bit cheaper. For 1 night is was fine, but if we wanted to come back for more days, might not be as affordable.

The Lotus is in a great position at the Diamond Head end of Waikīkī, which is much quieter and serene due to the fact that it is opposite a Iolani park. On my lanai I was visited by sweet tropical birds, watched the palm trees swaying, could hear and see the ocean as well as people enjoying the park. I had a corner ocean view room. Staff were so friendly and welcoming, and beaches are within easy walking distance. I ate at the restaurant one night and was really impressed with the service and quality of food. On one of my morning strolls I saw a Hawaiian Monk Seal sunning themselves and learned a bit about the population on Oahu! This was a magic moment. Room was spacious and clean, with the convenience of a microwave. Very happy with my choice and would definitely stay there again.

The staff was exceptional

The price for the room was high considering the age of the building

First time at this Hotel and pleasantly suprized with the location and amenties. The free bike and beach chairs are a nice touch. I'm not typically a huge fan of high rise hotels, but the room was very nice elevator wait was not an issue and the room and facilities were in great shape. Friendly and helpful staff too!

We experienced challenges with a Kona low and elevator issues; however, the staff was amazing. They were very friendly and always helpful. Great attitude and excellent follow through. Katie, Rhiannon, Yoobi, Ella, Nikki were a fantastic team.

Lotus Honolulu is at a bit out of the hubbub of Waikiki, which is what we wanted. Be aware, though, that this means meal options close by are a bit limited (though available). It's about a 10-15 minute walk to the main part of Waikiki. The room was big, clean, and comfy. I think this is a great more-affordable but high-quality option.

We had a nice room with a balcony and sea view. I enjoyed the morning breakfast and the evenings watching the sea skyline. 😎 The only negativ points are the elevator. It was two times not working from 4 days. Hope they will repair it soon. And Breakfast is not available, but we got our own stuff in the little fridge. Coffee machine is perfect (Illy coffee). Water for tea you have to heat in the microwave 🤪
