Beautiful location close to Volcano National ParkPleasant and helpful staff
Irene ElisabettaItalyLa posizione nel bosco. Vicinanza al parco dei vulcani. Gentilezza della host
Camera piccola, odore di ambiente umido, colazione non adeguata.
GiorgioItalyComodo.
Non hanno condizionatore e quindi era un po' umido. Non fa caldo perché è a 1200 metri di quota, quindi non serve. Però c'era un po' di umidità, comunque più che accettabile.

Questions about Aloha Crater Lodge
What time is check-in and check-out at Aloha Crater Lodge?

Does Aloha Crater Lodge have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Aloha Crater Lodge have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
