Formerly known as The Ambassador Hotel Waikiki, the eclectic and spirited hotel will reemerge with an array of room types, programming, lively dining and entertainment at Waikiki Swim & Social Club and easy access to the island’s incredible outdoor activities. A courtyard restaurant is set to open in 2024, according to a press release.
