Recent Castle Waikiki Grand Review: "some reviews I read about this hotel were not very good before I booked with them this month. I had lived in the area before and knew the location was perfect. Right outside the lobby door and across the street is Honolulu Zoo(one of the best!). Located almost at the corner- across the street that way is Waikiki Beach(world famous sunset!). The bus stop, 2 to be exact are right outside the open air lobby doors.I strongly recommend you experience what "real Hawaii" looks like and take the bus everywhere, all over the island. We stayed(me and my 3 daughters) in#1002, its on the top floor and off your front lanai to your left are the mountains, to your right is the ocean, and from you bedroom is the city view! It was pretty much perfect. our room had a full kitchen w/o oven and every utensil you could imagine. It was clean and pretty well updated with stone tile floors and shower. New appliances and best of all....The housekeeping is not bothersome! We never once got woke up by a maid trying to come in and clean at 8am- actually never ever crossed paths with them at all. But our bed was always made and clean towels magically appeared. all in all--- it was worth every penny! Plus it has a burger joint right down stairs!"

A short guide to Waikiki

Waikiki established its reputation as a getaway when the Moana Surfrider opened its doors in 1901. Today, more than 30,000 hotel rooms are packed in the skyscrapers along the golden sands of Waikiki Beach. At the end of Waikiki, Diamond Head towers as an enduring landmark. West of Waikiki, Pearl Harbor offers a somber testament to history and the victims of World War II.
