Business Summary what's this?
The W Honolulu, in Honolulu, is a 3-and-one-half star luxury W Hotels. What travelers said they loved: "the view", "the beach", "the location", "the area", "the staff", and "the room". Guests can enjoy fishing and other local activities. Sleep connoisseurs described the bed as "hard", "great", and "super". The hotel is near award winning restaurants, including Bali By The Sea , Orchids , and Padovani's Restaurant And Wine Bar . Also nearby: Ampy's European Facials & Body Spa , Hawaii Convention Center , and Black Garter Cafe . Other local places to consider are Hilton Hawaiian Village Hotel and Sheraton Moana Surfrider Hotel.
Walk through the doors and into our Living Room, where we've broken down the walls of conventional lobby design. Enjoy the refreshing tropical drink and chilled face towel you will receive upon arrival. Feel the breeze and smell the aura of Oahu as you begin your journey through the W Hotel doors and into your new home. Our 51-room hotel provides "W" service with an "Aloha" touch. Set in an exclusive location at the foot of Diamond Head and Kapiolani Park, you're only a few minutes away from all the excitement of Waikiki, Honolulu, and Oahu. Who's hungry? Tempt your taste buds with the "flavors of Hawaii" cuisine at our Diamond Head Grill. Who wants a drink? Savor one of our specialty drinks as you play a game of chess in the Living Room. Soak in the scene. And soak up the rays. It's all here and it's all around you. So escape, experience, and enjoy. Pakele. 'Ike. Walea.
Several high-profile Waikiki hotels have recently been snapped up by chains geared toward executive travelers, including the former Colony Surf hotel, bought by owners so hip they only use a single letter as...

R.I.P.As of January 9, 2009, it will no longer be a W Hotel, as managment is pulling the plug. No big loss; it was mediocre at best and sort of a blemish on their brand.
