All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Make sure the price expedia quotes you includes the cleaning fee. Expedia claims the price you pay online includes all fees. This was not the case with us and we were unexpectedly told that we had to pay a $159 cleaning fee upon arrival to our room.

Liked: Staff & service
The room itself was old and had a lot of issues, - the mini fridge, the tv, the wifi did not work. I got help getting the wifi but it is clearly a very old hotel. I was told the entire building had some new tv issue where it would only work with a new Smart Tv, but I am not really sure that is true.
The bed was very comfortable and the room was air conditioned.
The view was spectacular though!
The room was clean and well appointed, with an excellent view. The staff were courteous and helpful. I also enjoyed the 10th floor viewing deck. The location was convenient for activities and services. It was a good trip.

Staff was very nice. The room was clean, bathroom kind of small like in Asia. Great location in Waikiki, everything is close by. Easy ways to rent a car, easy way to book a Luau, sunset dinner in the ocean.
I'll be back!

The pictures were not the room we had, we paid extra for the sz. of the room including a couch. But the views were the best!!! Internet service was aweful and the small table was missing the glass in the middle & only 1 chair, but the staff were friendly & accomodating as they could be since these rooms are privately owned. We paid extra but got less!!!
The view from the shared sundeck was amazing and the staff was great and that was about the only great thing about this place.we did not have tv or internet for a week like they say they provide. They do not service your room so switch out towles bed sheets ect. You can get new bed sheets every 4 days if you go and get them as well as towels they charge a 200 cleaning feee. Dishes were dirty so we did not use the dishes. Parking is not a guarantee and expensive the room is nothing like the pictures they post. The bed was hard as a rock and squeeked every time you move. The ac was in one "room" and if you had the curtains closeed the rest of the room did not get cold
This property is actually a condo and it is not while taking care of the rooms are deplorable
The day we arrived there there was no electricity had been gone since two in the morning - and the elevators were not working.
Do not recommend this. Do not stay there.
The location was convenient and the staff were welcoming. The room, however, was not very clean and there were no services provided. Too much noise from outside while the property charged hidden fees as well, and different fees than what was communicated at the booking stage. A form of deceit there. The checking out time was changed without notice and were asked to leave earlier too. Not the best experience but the room offers independence which was appreciated.
The plus it was close to Waikiki Beach: 5 minute walk. The cons- no service to the room- no cleaning. Could only change our bath and beach towels every two days. The room has a ‘balcony window’ but sealed shut. Also extremely thin as if they were open and could hear every car, truck, and motorcycle drive by. I booked the room because it has a kitchenette, however every thing in the kitchen is old and a plug in heat burner for the stove. I chose to eat out instead use the dirty, outdated kitchen. The only thing that worked well was the air conditioning and the shower. The bed had an old mattress and older bedding. The entire room looked like a 50 year old version of the photo online and was disappointing.
Upon arrival, it was fine. We checked into the room first they try to give us a room that was hot. The AC was not working. She offered us another room where it was cold. We settled in. We go downstairs to grab something to eat. We go back upstairs and there is roaches here and there we kill them and go on about our night. We settle and put some belongings away. We go down to the beach. We’re gone for a few hours upon a return when we enter the room. The room is infested with roaches not one or two like the first time rather 10 or 20 we’re trying to kill them all but there’s just so many they’re everywhere the food that we bought are belongings on the bed on the floors and the wall. We call Castle to inform them of the roach infestation in the room. The representative told me that he would have somebody contact me. After waiting for about 20 minutes, nobody ever called. To the front desk at Waikiki grand Hotel. and informed them of what was going on. They switched us rooms, but the room they gave us was an extra room for the cleaning service. They had their at the hotel so before we could get settled in, they had to move out all the buggies and cleaning supplies so that we could sleep there. The room was clean, however very outdated with dirty carpet not to mention the reason why I booked this room.( the first room) was because it had a full kitchen. The room that they switched us to did not have a full kitchen nor a full refrigerator it did come with the hot plate.
Privately owned rooms. More like an air bnb.. the staff for our room was great. One of the lobby attendants was horrible. Parking is a commodity so make sure to call the property and book that immediately otherwise options are scarce and very expensive. The zoo is right across the street and most restaurants are pretty good.
