Volcano House

Frommer's Review

Volcano House has a great location -- inside the boundaries of the national park -- and that's about all. This mountain lodge, which evolved out of a grass lean-to in 1865, is Hawaii's oldest visitor accommodations. It stands on the edge of Halemaumau's bubbling crater, and although the view of the crater is still an awesome sight, don't expect the Ritz here -- rooms are very plain and heated with volcanic steam. Tip: Book only if you can get a room facing the volcano; if they are filled, don't bother -- you can do better elsewhere.

Facilities:
Restaurant w/great view; bar
