W Honolulu Hotel - Diamond Head

The W Honolulu can be summed up in a nutshell by the button on your room phone that says "whatever/whenever." That's what we call service! The W's expensive, but it's worth every penny to be totally pampered in this low-key, elegantly casual hotel that caters to the business traveler but takes excellent care of vacationers, too. If you're craving peace and quiet, away from the crowds of Waikiki, but want to be close enough (about a 15-min. walk) to shops and restaurants, this is a perfect location. Formerly part of the Colony Surf (the adjacent, beachside condominium), this newly renovated hotel became part of the upscale W chain in 1999. You'll feel like you've entered a luxurious private world here: The hotel lobby looks like an elegant living room, and check-in occurs in the privacy of the guest rooms, which are decorated with handmade teak furniture from Bali. In addition to the large balconies with great views of Diamond Head, there are numerous excellent touches: from Hawaiian music CDs to dual-line cordless phones, plush robes, top-drawer bathroom amenities, twice-daily maid service (great to have clean towels when you return from the beach), and various business equipment available on request.Although the W is not on the beach, guests still have access to the small, private beach in front of the Colony Surf (great swimming here), about a 30-second walk away; Kapiolani Park is across the street, and the Waikiki Aquarium is just a few steps away. Facilities: Outstanding restaurant (Diamond Head Grill); elegant bar (entertainment nightly); outstanding concierge service; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; babysitting; coin-op washer/dryers; laundry service; dry cleaning Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.
