I came to Saipan with my family for the first time, and the kids really like it, and there are a lot of kids programs and things to enjoy, so let's make good memories. I think it would be great to bring my parents next time. I will also have a good time with you
It’s located right at the centre.
Close to almost everything.
5mins walk to the Casino and 1min walk to the supermarket.
Hotel itself is very old in a Japanese style (meaning small toilet)
Balcony offers good view as it is located right next to the beach.
Stayed at the Grandvrio a night on my recent trip to Saipan. I was there 2 weeks and stayed at Hyatt but when I had to extend, Hyatt could not accommodate me the last night. The hotel is one of the largest on Saipan and grounds were really nice. Check in was easy and I was given a room in Taga tower which is the nicer rooms. Loved my room. It was spacious and view was amazing. The only problem I had was the bed and pillows were typical Japanese style which were hard and uncomfortable. Otherwise, great stay.
The hotel is a little old. But the location is very prefect, maybe the center of the west coast. It was very convient for us to go north or south .
We were so lucky to have a high-floor room. So we saw a really good view .(we saw sunset everyday lol)
Heed the other reviews. I just stayed here for two nights via a travel agent booking. Even she tried to discourage my staying here, but it was the only hotel with availability during the time I wanted to travel.
The room itself was in need of a very serious renovation. The bathroom was disgusting. I'll see if I can post pics. Yhe grout had not been properly cleaned in ages. The soap dishes had soap remnants from past guests. The toilwt room had a small sink that had remnants of something caught in the the drain. The view of the ocean was fine, but in no way made up for the poor care of the room. The pillows were semi-soft on top but hard on the bottom due to how it was sewn.
Front desk staff would not let me check in before 3pm even though I just arrived on the only Guam to Saipan flight at 8am. They wanted to charge me for an early check in even if the room was available at 1pm, which in the years I worked in the hotel industry I had never seen. Late check out charge, yes. Early check in charge, no. Sadly, I had prepaid with my travel agent and couldn't go elsewhere due to lack of rooms.
For a room where they charge over $215 per night, they should be doing better.
Stay at a better hotel if you can. The price charged doesn't match the quality of hotel.
