Hotels near Diamond Head -Leahi, Honolulu

authenticity, breezy lobby, ocean so close!

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Also, there were several amenities on site that could be used.

We stayed here to relax at the end of our holiday for birthday celebrations. The hotel upgraded our room and left champagne and chocolates for us as well. We loved the room, great view and hotel was great location.

This hotel exceeded our expectations! The price is super low, the rooms are spacious, the staff above and beyond friendly, everything was great. I highly recommend this place if you are traveling with kids or a group, or have an extended stay. Our room had a full kitchen with cookware, even a rice cooker! Full size fridge, all of the amenities one could want. The dining area was large, and the view from the balcony was amazing! The pool floor is very fun, with a clean pool and two jacuzzis, even a playground area for little kids and lots of bbq grills to use. This is a no-frills place that still keeps a nice level of comfort. I now highly recommend staying here, and we will be back! 😊

I loved how closed the beach and food spots

Super friendly and great location

The staff is amazing, the views fantastic, 30 steps from Kuhio Beach!!!! Easy to shop, eat, swim, walk. The location is perfect. Rooms are not huge but just fine when out most of the day. Fantastic shopping and restaurants close by. Sunsets, safe beach, just perfect.

Perfectly located hotel two blocks from Waikiki beach. Good clean hotel, excellent staff and provided everything you needed. Excellent customer service.

Very good stay , very good location

The staff was amazing, from dropping off the luggage to celebrating our anniversary!!!! Every in and out had smiles for days.

They give us free up grade due to TV problem of the first room. We see ocean everyday from our room.

Everything.. this place was incredible. Full sized kitchen with fridge was awesome for us as we saved a ton of money from cooking in. Free parking was a huge benefit as every other hotel in Waikiki charged $50 USD a day! The pool was great, there was always a chair available. The room was huge and just a super nice place to stay

It was far enough away from the busyness and noise of Waikiki but within walking distance of the shopping and restaurants. Just a few steps away from a secluded beach and a wonderful view of Diamond Head!

Location is unbearable, unit is beautifully designed, and staffs are wonderful

We had a very pleasant experience staying at Vive hotel Waikiki. Our first stay was for a week in a Junior Suite Ocean View room, and we were very happy with it. The size of the room was perfect! It was clean, well-maintained, and the daily housekeeping was excellent. The room had a spacious bathroom and a view of the ocean. The location of the hotel is unbeatable—you can walk to the beach in just 5 minutes, which made our stay incredibly convenient. Additionally, there’s an amazing poke place, Maguro spot, located right across the hotel, which was a delightful bonus. It’s hard to imagine a better combination of location and quality for a stay in Waikiki. The staff were friendly and always ready to assist, which added to the overall comfort of our stay. After spending a few days on the Big Island and Maui, we realized even more how great this hotel was in terms of service and overall experience. We decided to come back for a few extra days and stayed in a standard room this time. The standard room size was perfectly fine—despite some reviews mentioning it being small, we didn’t find that to be the case. It was clean, comfortable, and met all our needs. Overall, this hotel offers an excellent combination of location, cleanliness, and quality service. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Waikiki.

LOCATION: Excellent location. Central to everything. Right in front of Kuhio Beach and surrounded by restaurants, bars and stores on both the Waikiki strip and Kuhio Ave behind it. STAFF: Very friendly, kind and helpful. They remember your name and always greet you. VIBE: Although the room was very dated, for some strange reason, it felt "homey" and welcoming. Perhaps it was the partial ocean view and lots of light streaming in.

Very nice!! Excellent cost/benefit!!
