“Great Location & Value”
This is a condo/hotel. Some units are lived-in year round by the owners, & some are rented out by the owners. The room I stayed (516) in was in the hotel pool, & was serviced every third day. The quality & room conditions vary greatly, as the rooms are individually owned. I would stay here again, & actually am planning to next year.
“Convenience at a low price”
I will most likely go back to this hotel on our next visit. We had a small studio room which included a full kitchen with all the pots, pans, utensils, etc that we needed, it was great. Also had a futon for an extra bed. Room was very clean and simple and was only 1 block from Waikiki beach. Very convenient and great room for a great price.
“Convenient, Friendly, Economical”
Nice hotel situated at the end of the Waikiki strip...away from most of the commotion. Clean, comfortable room - small, but served its purpose. Didn't get a chance to visit the lounge on 2nd floor, but it sounded fun. Very quiet room. Proximity to beach was great - took about 2 minutes to walk to the beach. I would stay here again.
“Beautiful view”
We booked an ocean view room and were upgraded to the full kitchen rooms on the top floor. We did not have a private balcony but had the room next to the owners' suite and access to the full sundeck. This gave us an uninterrupted view of Diamondhead, Kuhio beach, the ocean and the Honolulu Zoo. It was beautiful! The room was comfortable with a large bathroom and kitchen. Convenient city location while feeling like you were in the country. The staff were very helpful and promptly fulfilled our requests. Highly recommended!
“Love the Waikiki Grand”
Great hotel and an excellent value. It is a condo hotel with a management company. All the rooms/condos are privately owned and will differ from one to the next. 901 is an excellent room and we have stayed in many others as well. The rooms are not serviced daily, but that is ok with us. Near the beach, very safe, on site parking when available for a fee, perfect location.
“the best location”
best location!!! but,terrible front desk ,and DONT HAVE INTERNET!!! NEVER WORK!!
“Can't wait to go back”
One thing I don't like is when the receptionist told me that my room will only be ready after 6 hours because the guest occupying the room will be leaving after lunch so I need to come back after and waited at the hotel lobby so I got no choice but to wait even though I was so tired and came directly from the airport. Next time they should prepare everything and make sure there are temporary rooms to be used by the guest waiting.
“Great Location, Great Rooms, Great Value!”
In the heart of Waikiki beach (beach front), this place is awesome, the rooms are huge, including kitchen ... I highly recommend this place.
“OK for the price”
The first night we have ariived we were given room # 804, which was in very bad shape and had no balcony. The furniture looked like it was just picked up from garbage, and it even smelled. I went downstairs to the front desk immidiatly and told them what I found. The hotel staff were very nice and told us we will be given another room tomorow when someone moves out. That was just what they did. We gotten a much better room with balcony. It had a great kitchen with a full fridge, granite countertops, tiled bath and balcony, and nice furniture. It was a room #501. The units are individually owned, so the hotel does not have control over which one u get. But the first room we got was way below the addvertised quality, and, if we did not get the other room we would go to another hotel right then and there. Location is great, you r 100 yards from the beach and all the acction. Do rent a car and go to Kailua beach and Waimanalo Beach- its like going to Cancun. WHite sand and no rocks in the water. We saw turtles there too! Have fun
“Nebraska Travelers”
My boyfriend and I stayed in Waikiki for the 1st time and found this hotel off of Expedia and by reading multiple reviews. Let me tell you...for the location you get and the price you pay...you can't beat it. Cute, quirky room with fridge, microwave and patio. We LOVED the hotel bar Hulas and all the staff. Perfect for the frugal traveler and I would definitely go back.
