“A historic hotel set on the edge of a crater in the UNESCO world heritage site, Volcanoes National Park. Traditional and elegant rooms are simply designed with wood furniture and private lanais with fab vistas of the crater. Two restaurants offering casual and fine dining. A truly unique stay.”

Volcano House
Historic Volcano House is the only hotel inside legendary Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, a Unesco World Heritage Site. Reopened after a five-month shutdown following end of a 35-year eruption in late 2018, the summit crater glow is gone, taking with it part of the property's charm.
