Hotel was very clean and staff friendly

The room was nice.

I was born and raised on Oahu and returned to attend a funeral and visit family. If you're looking for a nice hotel that is close to Waikiki and still on the beach, but away from all the congestion, this is the place. From my balcony, it was as if I could reach out and touch Diamond Head. From my bed, I had a perfect view (between two buildings) of the ocean. I left the shutters open during the night so I could awake to the view. Down below was the expanse of Kapiolani Park, birds singing and the sound of the waves. It just doesn't get much better. The restaurant has changed its hours and wasn't open during my visit. However, the Kaimana Hotel next door has a beautiful beach-front dining and bar area; you can get food early am until 9pm. I walked every morning from the hotel to Fort DeRussy, about an hour or so. If you enjoy good coffee, I suggest the Kona Coffee place at the historic Moana Hotel next to Kuhio Beach. A must for dinner is the upscale grill directly upstairs from Duke's restaurant. I had a swordfish and sunfish combo that was delectible. If you're ambitious, a walk from the hotel towards Diamond Head Beach is beautiful. Oh yes, the entire staff at the hotel is wonderfully gracious. It was worth spending the $15/day for the valet; you have in and out priviledges, so it's much easier.

No privacy. It is far away from town and not safe on the way to hotel at night and hard to find the hotel.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Nice place used to be the W and is still a great botique hotel. Has it's own little beach thats nice and quiet.

Date of Stay: May, 2009

The hotel staff was great. The view from the rooms are awesome! The location. It is a very far walk to Waikiki. Hard to get in and out even with car. No room service. Overall, this is a wonderful hotel! The staff know you by name and the view is so much better than what you would normally get for the price. Excellent value. The location is a bit away from Waikiki. And even with a car, it is inconvenient. But the service more than makes up for it. The only thing the hotel lacks is room service. It is very difficult to get food, especially in the morning. I recommend bringing your own snacks/drinks.

What a great location! A lovely small hotel with beautiful decor. Close enough to walk to Waikiki (10 minute stroll through a lovely park) yet far enough to feel away from the hustle and bustle of the Waikiki strip. Diamond Head is very near to this hotel. I highly recommend a room with a view of Diamond Head and a partial ocean view (that way you get the best of both worlds. The bed was extremely comfortable (all down bedding). Staff were excellent and willing to go the extra mile! Take a taxi if walking back to the hotel from Waikiki when dark. As in ANY place, it is never safe to walk through a park late at night especially if alone. This is not meant to give the impression that this is a bad area(quite opposite in fact). It is a very nice part of Waikiki. Many families, walkers, joggers, etc. however at night it has the potential to become dangerous due to the many large banyon trees and dimly lit lights.

The staff was amazing. So helpful and kind! Smaller but not uncomfortable rooms. My husband and I really enjoyed our time at the Lotus. The staff was amazing. They went above and beyond to be helpful. The rooms were very clean and the bed was so comfortable. The view of the ocean was not to big but diamond head was beautiful. We will come back.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Lovely hotel; great staff; decor in room attractive; nice size room; great views of Diamond Head and lesser ones of the Pacific. Boutique hotel 0 51 rooms.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Everything was wonderful. Nothing. This is a clean, courteous, classy hotel. The bed was the softest feather bed like sleeping on a cloud. The staff was tops. We didn't try the lounge and there is no pool but we wouldn't have used it any way. Staff was very helpful with anything we needed.

when we first arrived at the airport no one was familiar with the hotel because the hotel recently changed its name from "the w" to "the lotus at diamondhead". we had to call orbitz to get the address of the hotel for a driver to take us there. we paid an extra $120 for an ocean view and did not have a full view of the ocean. we had to go on the balcony to see it looking to the right. had to ask for towels a couple of times. also had to ask for soap even though housekeeping cleaned the room everday. we had checked into the hotel late at around 6pm on 4/23/09. but they charged us $1oo for a late checkout and had the nerve to rush us out of the room after we were being charged. mind you, we left in a cab that we requested at 2:30pm. the hotel had no pool or fitness center. it had no direct access to the beach. we had to go through another hotel to get to the beach. the good thing was that the hotel it was a 15 minute walk away from the main hotel strip and there was free parking on the street if you had a car instead of paying for $15 a day valet parking.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Great view of Diamond Head. No restaurant for breakfast/lunch on premises-restaurant is only open for dinner.

Date of Stay: May, 2009

Quiet, great views, big rooms, lanai was nice. Linen tired and stained. Needs a little update on basics. Right now it is about a 3.5 star hotel. It is great for honeymoon or quiet stays. It is far from Waikiki and it doesn't have very many amenities. It's a little tired for a four star hotel, linen was once nice but now stained and old. Needs a freshening up and maybe not try so hard to be trendy. Would recommend as high 3.5 star hotel but low end 4 star hotel.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Refrigerator, clean and comfortable. No pool, restaurant extremely pricey, Friday and Saturday night club, no sleep for hours. Nice hotel away from the traffic of Waikiki, but a pain when you need to get there. Lacks a pool, but has a nice beach steps away. Disco is definitely downfall, music bangs for hours Friday and Saturday.

	Date of Stay: May, 2009
Awesome views. Alittle ways from town. Beautiful, nice and quiet.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
Friendly staff, quiet area, clean and neat. No pool, sauna, or gym.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
The location was great; close enough to Waikiki to be able to walk, but far enough away to avoid the crowds and noise. Loved the adjacent beach. The lobby could use cleaning and/or redecorating.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
The bed was comfortable.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
Staff was great. Beds were ridiculously comfortable. Rooms were very clean.

	Date of Stay: April, 2009
Quiet, clean, nice staff. Not on beach, no coffee in room. This is a very pleasant stay. Staff very helpful. Not sure about 4 stars. Nice, but just above average room. Quiet.
