My wife and I went on a 7-day cruise of the islands. We wanted to relax for a few days prior to sailing so we spent three days at the Lotus. We fell in love with the Lotus. The rooms are excuisite, the view phenomenal and the staff could not be more accomodating and friendly. They really went out of... more

This hotel is located close to waikiki beach(10 min walk), thats the best part of it. when we arrived at the hotel, we were given 2 double beds, they didnt even offer a queen bed even after our pertinent requests. we saw a live lizard on the roof of the elevator. The corridors were dimly lit (with pink lights!). The... more

I read some of the other reviews, and they were dead on... The site was a "W" hotel until last year or so (in fact it's still on some maps that way), but not much has changed. The room I had was a 5th floor corner with two lanais and was very comfortable, very roomy, very clean, and very calming...... more

We have been to Oahu several times and really enjoy the quieter side of the strip. Lotus is a quick walk through the park to arrive at the hotel. I loved it. I unlike other contributors found the staff very friendly. They referred us to fantastic places along with maps on how to get there. Sure it didn't have stores,... more

We booked this hotel thru hotwire and wanted to be in Waikiki in a nice 4 star hotel for the last nite of our honeymoon. Now don't get me wrong - the room was lovely - and the view even better... but the service.. POOR AT BEST. When we arrived it took a LIFETIME to get checked in - the... more

I stayed at the Lotus for 2 nights in an Ocean view room on the 8th floor. The Lotus used to be a W Hotel but is now under new management. It is a small property that is not on the beach. There is a partial view of the water from between other buildings in front of the Ocean. The... more

The room felt roomy and was nicely decorated. Everything was clean. We had a tenth floor ocean view room with a private balcony looking toward Diamond Head; the view was great, especially while reading the free newspaper in the morning. The only thing that wasn't great was that the hotel was a little further from the middle of Waikiki than... more

I've been to Honolulu a few times and I absolutely love this hotel. It's far enough away that you feel a bit secluded but the walk is very easy to get to the action in town. The service was great - Michael especially made great suggestions on dinner and shopping. The rooms were clean and well decorated. The bed in... more

We are frequent travelers to Honolulu as my husband has an office there. We have stayed all over Waikiki then migrated toward Diamond Head to the New Otani. The rooms there were small, so after three stays, we decided to wander across the parking lot and check out The Lotus. We were told that the "W" went bankrupt and now... more
