Location is excellent in relation to the volcanos. Easy to register, easy no fuss book in and out. Loved the ambience and the surroundings. Room was fantastic, heaps of space, lots of extras, very unique style, beautiful. Would highly recommend staying. Easy off-street parking, super clean room, excellent communication throughout the entire process. My family, including 2 teenage girls, loved the stay and wish it had of been for longer.

What a surprising gem this small hotel is in the very small town of Volcano Village. There are less than 10 rooms, and each one is different. The place was very cozy and quite off the beaten path from any traffic and other activities. We had 2 rooms that each had refrigerators, microwaves, coffee makers, an electric fireplace, satellite TV, large showers and interesting stone bathrooms. It was just a fun way to add to our time spent at nearby Volcano National Park. We would strongly recommend this location to everyone. It did not matter to us that check-in was contactless, and we did not see any one either checking in or checking out. There was a telephone number to call in case we needed something, and additional towels, etc. were made available in case we wanted them.

We are frankly not sure how to explain the Chalet Kilauea. It's a little bit hippie (frayed without the charm), a bit bohemian and a bit like, well, the toilet is too fragile to use for necessities. We had a 2 room "suite" that was very cave like. No drawers or night stands. STAIRS- be prepared to carry your own bags up a couple flights of stairs. While we are happy not to be greeted with leis and $25 a night valet parking, the Chalet has reduced no contact hoteling to AWOL proprietership. Never saw a soul.

We had lovely quiet, private stay. The rooms are not the resort-style that many go to the Hawaiian Islands for (and personally, we don't like that atmosphere). We originally booked Lokahi lodge but didn't love the view in our room, so they were able to get us a beautiful, clean room at the Chalet Kilauea with no notice. Room had a nice layout, big windows and was very clean. Each room is different so its worth it to call if you have specific needs. The hot water was really hot, electric fireplace and heater worked nicely to keep us dry in the rainforest environment. I get that some recommend Hilo or other more lively towns, but this is a great choice for families with small kids who don't want to add a 40 minute commute to volcanoes park. Grounds, koi pond were nice to walk through and fun for the kids to run outside.…

We booked this hotel for one night to visit Volcano national Park because of its very positive reviews on TripAdvisor. This was a real disappointment. Though the room was clean, it was extremely small and dark. The bathroom which had stone floors in the shower was the nicest part of the room. Also, to get into the room you have to navigate several series of short flights of steps which was a nuisance. There is absolutely no one on site. So you’re completely on your own once you’re there. I wouldn’t recommend staying there.Though the room does have a small refrigerator and a microwave, if you expect a nice room that you want to hang out in, go somewhere else.

Thanks so much for the room and the service. Great place to stay if you’re want to go to Volcanoes National Park. The little town of Volcano, Hawaii, is such a nice place to visit, the people are fun and interesting. Hope to see you guys again.... thx....

Our room was in Lokahi Lodge, which is a separate house that's closer to the park entrance from the main property. The room was large and had everything we needed with a fridge, microwave and coffee maker in the room. The property was super quiet and I know there were others in the house but it felt very private. I loved the wraparound lanai, it was awesome sitting out there looking at the lush landscaping. We liked being able to use the lanai door to come and go rather than the front entrance since we could leave our shoes right next to the door as well. The only reason for 4 stars is because the mattress was super firm, but I would happily stay here again.

This was our 2nd stay in Volcano and we booked Kilauea Hospitality Group again due to our very good experience the first time. And, we again were not disappointed. There are 3 properties not very far from each other. This time we‘ve been in ‚The Bungalow‘, which was only some steps away from the reception. If you want privacy, just go there. The jungle was directly behind our place. The car could be parked right in front. The inside was very cozy and rustic with all you need apart from a place to cook. But a microwave was there. Anyway, not very many people will stay in Volcano for a long time. For us the 5 days we planned were just sufficient. Things to see: Volcano N.P. (only a few minutes to go), Mauna Loa Access Road, Hilo (around 50min away). If you want to see more check on Blue Hawaiian. They‘ll fly you with nice helicopters to the Kilauea area and some beautiful waterfalls. Best restaurant for us: Thai Thai Bistro and Bar. The prices are pretty reasonable. If you want cheaper food, you need to go to Hilo. Only around 2 minutes away you can find a grocery store where you can buy what you need (also frozen food for the microwave), though it‘s expensive. So, you better bring what you need from Hilo or Kona. The price we paid per night was also reasonable so that we‘ll come back again next time!…

This is a great place to stay for a night or two while visiting Volcano national park. It makes a nice change from staying in large resorts, and there’s no annoying resort fee or parking charge. Sitting in the hot tub one evening, which is on stilts and among the rainforest trees, was one of the highlights of our two weeks in Hawaii!
