Overall a nice place with great access to the beach. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The room would be nicer if it had at least a fold up table and chairs. The wicker loveseat size couch wasn’t very comfortable but was in good shape. Overall I would recommend it to my friends
The stay at this hotel was for 10 days. Very close to the beach and shopping. The premises were clean and hotel staff were wonderful. The Vrob was clean and accommodations good. Was a bit noisy because of construction next door, but other than that we were very happy with our stay there.

Room was off the street towards the back of property, and away from the bar ( open til 2am). This provided quite after 9pm. On the street side not so much—per a couple riding in the elevator. Was a good experience.
Great place to stay walking distance to so much, like the zoo, beach lots of stores and restaurants.
Pros: close to a lot of restaurants, shopping, and the beach. Temperature stayed pretty cool! The hotel staff were nice. Cons: the pictures are a false representation as the room is old and somewhat dirty. The fitted bed sheet had brown marks and no extras were provided. There is visible paint peeling and exposed wood all over. Dust has collected in the shower vent, which makes me question how long it’s been uncleaned and made showering uncomfortable. The kitchen sink kept backing up and spewing black particles. Likewise, the shower pipes kept backing up causing waster to pool at our feet. The AC unit is very noisy but effective so not really a con. You get what you pay for, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
Easy check in. The room looks like the photos. Great location across the street from the Honolulu Zoo. Easy to walk a few blocks over to Kuhio Ave to take the 2, 8, or 13 buses down the street towards the busy restaurants and shopping area. Get a daily bus card at one of the three ABC stores nearby. Waikīkī Beach is a block away for checking out the sunset. The 10th floor view of Diamond Head and the beach is fantastic. The bed and many pillows was very comfortable. Nice to have beach towels. The kitchen has lots of utensils and stuff for cooking. I appreciated the full size refrigerator and the freezer.
Location is great, 5 minutes to beach, around the corner from main street with restaurants, shopping etc..
It was a good location and had access to anything. The view from the room was stairwells, dirty building windows and cement. That was the only part that would keep me from staying in this place again.
Close to restaurants and beach, but pool was too cold to get into
The apartment was comfortable and quiet. We liked the location above all. The bathroom needs a refresh as it should have a grab bar in the tub as it is slippery. The team was very responsive.
Nice visit for UHM move in. Room was clean & the location is so easy to get around. Quick walk to the beach!
The location of the beach and shopping is top-notch. I am so glad we chose this place to stay. The bed is so comfortable, most mattresses are uncomfortable, but not this one. We slept so well. The Waikiki Beach is steps out the front door. There is food and shopping everywhere. The park over the street is amazing. Free parking is everywhere. The hotel is perfectly located. The 10th-floor deck is just perfect for a view of the ocean and a view of Diamond Head. The room was quiet and at the end of the hallway away from the elevator. The hotel employees were so helpful. The pool was like a private pool. Most of the time we were the only people using it. The volume for the TV is on the side of the remote, I didn't have experience with a Roku, but I do now. Everything was perfect, I recommend it.
Small but very nice. Complete kitchen. Half block from beach. No ocean view.
Retro, clean and quaint place to stay. Very close to beach, zoo and shopping. We were lucky enough to catch Art Festival in park outside of zoo. Experienced bus system to and from Pearl Harbor Memorial.
We loved our stay at the Waikiki Grand, everything we needed, great location, Mark was a pleasure to deal with. Only wish we could’ve stayed longer!
The place was just perfect location for our Oahu visit. I noticed the ceiling fan still hums and the refrigerator makes an intermittent low hammering noise. We were happy to stay at this place a second tine an recommended to anyone wishing a very short walk to waikiki, kapiolani park and the zoo

Location great, but room doesn't look like photo!
This place was perfect for us, small but had everything we needed and was in maybe the best location possible. Would stay here again!
Location very good close to the beach and amenities
Apartment tiny with noisy air conditioner and noisy fan that made sleeping very difficult as there is no alternative - fresh air balcony or window
A great stay! The unit is equiped with the essentials for a great get-away. Clean and convenient.
Check in was easy, quick and efficient, even while being exhausted 😊.
I would definately stay here again. Exelcellent communication.
Mahalo, Mark!
Location,location,location! Came back 40 years later! 1st time was our honeymoon. The view on 10th floor is spectacular! We utilized the kitchen usually twice a day for our meals. The Waikiki market we used for groceries was only a 6 to 10 minute walk. Zoo was nice and across the street. The beach was great with the breaker reduced the waves which worked out great for us. I would recommend this to all. Thanks Mark for being a great host!
We had an amazing vacation and all the people were nice. It started a little rough with a delayed flight and loss of 12 hours but it ended up being an amazing experience. The location of the room is amazing. We didn’t like all of the pot being smoked around the building. However that seemed to be only on the weekends. I didn’t enjoy spending $30 a day to park and feel that was overpriced but we did appreciate having a spot. The staff need to be a bit more knowledgeable about restaurants and things to do. Most of the information was inadequate and in accurate. All were super friendly and helpful. Our bathtub was plugged the first night, so I had to unplug it and we did see a few roaches. The room was clean and had shampoo and soap. The noise level were great and we were able to rest and we could here all of the birds in the morning. We had an amazing vacation and would stay here again. I always want to give constructive feedback so things could always change and improve! The entire staff was helpful and nice, thank you for the memories!
