| DINING |
| Diamond Head Grill - The chic and contemporary Diamond Head Grill serves "flavors-of-Hawaii" cuisine such as Macadamia-nut crusted lamb chops with guava-mustard glaze and herb-crusted opakapaka (pink snapper) with white-truffle custard. Wonder Lounge - Open to the adjacent Diamond Head Grill, this sleek place is Honolulu's famous "bar with the bed," where the W challenges guests to "take a flying leap onto the sexy W bed situated in its own little alcove." A long, sinuous bar and chic lighting complete the contemporary decor. On Friday nights, DJs in the lounge and the adjacent event room attract throngs to Honolulu's hippest nightclub for the stylish set. |
| SERVICES |
| What to expect: No aloha shirts here. Even valet parkers wear black. Their shirts and white pants are the only uniforms, however, since the "Welcome Desk" staffers wear dark, stylish business suits, as do most corporate-travel guests. Background music pulsates with contemporary rhythms. Hospitality is warm, gracious, and discreet. Amenity highlights: A hundred yards away, via a path between the two high-rise condominium towers, lies a pretty little beach offering calm-water swimming. Just another 100 yards away is a larger beach. Guests can borrow beach towels, chairs, and sunning mats from W Hotel's Welcome Desk. Insider tip: Located directly across the street, spacious Kapiolani Park is criss-crossed with jogging/walking trails through green grounds and under majestic trees. |
| Comprising just 44 rooms in a seven-floor tower, the W Hotel greets guests checking in with a cool tropical beverage and a chilled face towel.
