We booked our first four-night stay at the Aqua Lotus when a deal showed up on Jetsetter.com. The price was right and the location perfect to our way of thinking: a bit removed from the hustle and noise of Waikiki at the foot of Diamond Head and across the street from Kapi'olani Park. We booked our second four-night stay because... More

At first we were unable to find a condo that was not in the heart of Waikiki. I stumbled upon this hotel on the internet. Now am so glad we stayed there. Lovely views, Super Clean Spacious rooms, Friendly Staff and best of all quiet. Only a few rooms on each floor. Extra little touches that make it even more... More

First and foremost we highly recommend this hotel. It is in a quieter part of Waikiki which in our opinion was fantastic as you have a more relaxing and paradisical experience in the area. Also, for the price it is a great value as other hotels of the same quality will charge more per night for the same types of... More

20 minutes walk from the centre of Waikiki beach activity a nice, clean, pleasant place. Parking fee of 20$ is to much, but overall there is a good value for the money. Beach 250 meters away. Quiet place. More

Well located hotel ten - fiteen minutes walk from central Waikiki, so in a quiet location opposite a park. Very close to the beach, but not on it. This is a good 3 star hotel. Our room was large with two good quality double beds. The bathroom was also a good size. Everything was clean and well maintained. The room... More

I have been staying at this hotel for five years, typically every three or four times a year for a week at a time (It is a former W Hotel). I come to Honolulu for business and appreciate that it is quiet and off the beaten path, but accessible to Waikiki. Just fifty rooms, five rooms per floor and easy... More

Met my mom here for a 2 and a half week stay. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a smiling Bill, who took our bags up. The first thing I noticed when i got to the lobby, was the wonderful smell. It was calm and welcoming. Vanilla ? There are 12 floors, each floor has 5 units on it, making... More

We have enjoyed many wonderful vacations in Honolulu over the years, this time we discovered The Lotus, a gem that we were in two minds about sharing☺ Crispy clean sheets on beds from heaven, great balconies with wonderful ocean, Diamond Head and park views, rooms that have a clean Pacific/Balinese vibe that are spacious, including the bathroom. Ipod docks/wifi. We... More

Just recently stayed at this boutique hotel for a little rest and relaxation getaway. The hotel is a about a good 10 min walking distance to all of the main shops and points in Waikiki and access to your own somewhat private beach. Accommodation wise the hotel is very clean and well maintained. Staff is wonderful and friendly especially the... More
