House of the ʻāmaʻu fern
The adventurer in you desires an inspiring destination someplace unique with both familiar and unfamiliar comforts. Welcome to the Volcano House hotel in Hawaii, a historic retreat of 33 guest rooms, suites, and campsites located in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience waking on the summit of a volcanic caldera and UNESCO Heritage site. You’re 4,000 feet above sea level in a novel geologic, biologic, and cultural landscape.
Located near the Kilauea volcano, our hotel has garnered praise from the likes of Mark Twain. Relax in award-winning accommodations that bring you closer to nature.
At its highest point, Mauna Loa measures 13,677 feet, a giant and one of many geological wonders that includes two of the world’s most active volcanoes.
Everything you need is right there! Perfect access to the volcano, food, and entertainment. The Hawaiian spirit and hospitality is on front and center. It's obvious the local community and park caretakers love and appreciate the land.

Great lunch & outstanding view!
My husband and I stopped at Volcano House on a whim. It was a clear day and you could see right into the Kilauea caldera while dining. I had a ginger shrimp with jasmine rice in a sweet and sour broth. My husband had the Hawaiian sampler which was beautifully presented in a bento box with poke, poi, fish, and haupia. The service was very attentive as well.

Volcano House is Open
An old-fashioned hotel with a killer view! The Halema’uma’u crater is no longer glowing red, but the recent landscape changes are fascinating post-eruption. The hotel is very safe, no worries about the lava. In fact, there's no hot lava anywhere on the island right now. But you can drive to the new Black Sand Beach at Issac Hale, and people are surfing there!
