Located within Hawaii Volanoes National Park and perched on the rim of Kilauea’s Halemaumau crater, the historic Volcano House Hotel has long captured the imagination of visitors from all over the world with its iconic location, rich cultural legacy, and warm Hawaiian hospitality.  Drawing upon a storied history dating back to 1846, Volcano House Hotel is now ready for a new era. The restored Volcano House offers 33 historic guest rooms, a dining room, snack bar, lounge, and gift shop, along with cultural events and demonstrations.

An icon of Hawaii hospitality, Volcano House is the only hotel in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Commanding Hawaii’s most unique lodging location, Volcano House overlooks Halema‘uma‘u Crater at the summit of Kilauea. Hike to the Napau Trail to view Pu‘u O‘o along the East Rift zone to witness spectacular eruptions of Kilauea, fed by the Hawaiian hotspot that formed the Hawaiian archipelago through 28 million years of volcanic activity.
