Glad we only stayed just one night. The pictures made it look fairly decent BUT: only one wall was re-painted; the beds were so old that you were really just sleeping on the wire coils and the website made it seem like you would get at least two queens but we only got two doubles; old, disgusting bedding with bed... more

I made reservations on line after seeing the rooms and felt I was getting a good deal. I was expecting two double bed and found that there was only one bed so our son had to sleep on the floor. The carpets were stained and filthy. The room was generally dirty. The trash was never emptied in the three days... more

Details: Priceline reservation- $125/nite. [If using Priceline never give a rate over $100. That is the asking price, unless high season?] Room 502. Hotel room with small refrigerator only. Parking $17/day. Check-in: Would not let me check in earlier than 3:00pm. The “fob” for the parking garage did not work; was quickly resolved. Other than that, non-eventful. Room: The room... more

Stayed at Diamond Head Beach Hotel in 2007 NOVEMBER. Was a little worried due to the past reviews, but found the staff to be present and helpful. Front desk not only gave us directions, but also gave us detailed maps of places we wanted to go. Our room was on the third floor and it offered the best view. Parking... more

Although previous reviews mentioned the front desk's hours are 8:30am-6:00pm, it seems as if another management has taken over the front desk. They are now open from 6:00am-10:00pm. The location is amazing. I was informed by the person at the front desk that they have renovated many of the rooms. If you are expecting top-notch rooms, this is not the... more

I booked my stay at the Diamond Head Beach hotel through VRBO. I found the room to be exactly as it was pictured through the VRBO website. Most rooms at this hotel are privately owned and decorated. I called the owner to make sure I wouldn't have the experience of the "bait and switch" review. Thankfully, I was assured I... more

I rented a room for 5 nights, dealing directly with the condo owner through VRBO.com. His unit had recently been renovated and was nicely furnished, with room to sleep 4 (2 adults and 2 little kids on a queen bed and convertible sofabed) as I had requested. I arrived after a full day of travel and was shown a run-down... more

This is not the place to stay at all. The staff can't even tell you where the nearest resturant, grocery store or anything else is. We found out on our own that a bus stop was about 200 feet away, but the guy at the desk couldn't tell us that. The elevator was broke one of the days we were... more

The only good thing going for the Diamond Beach Hotel is the location..quiet end of Waikiki. Now for the problems..the room was dirty. Needed paint, the carpet was filthy. The staff could not answer any basic questions ( where is the closest bus etc.) There are no views below the 6th floor. Marc Hotels only owns 22 rooms in the... more

This is NOT a hotel - it is a timeshare that people rent out. We stayed in room 205 and it was the most disgusting place in which I have stayed in many, many years. Filthy tile, smelled like mold, dark, dank. Just awful. We would have complained but there was no one to complain to! The desk was not... more
