Saipan Shining Star Hotel

Nice, cost effective, clean hotel to stay. Just a minutes walk to my favorite beach in Saipan. Room was large, clean and modern, had a balcony. Would recommend hiring a car but you can manage without one for a few days as well. Positioned off a side street off the main road, there’s a very limited number of restaurant choices and a few grocery markets just a few minutes walk away. Korean chicken restaurant on the ground level of the hotel. Hot/cold water refill available in the lobby along with a microwave. Lift and stairs to access the floors to the hotel. Aircon was ok, WiFi worked very well, mini fridge in room. Can get noisy from other travelers if you’re staying on the same level but to be expected I guess. One thing to note is that a US outlet was only available in the bathroom so you need an adapter to plug your phone next to the bed, which is minor, but worth noting. Overall friendly owner/host, he speaks English and I was able to have an early check in which was more than accommodating and appreciated! I can recommend staying here and would stay again!

Hotel staff big brother Hope is really nice, though it took 2 hours for CBP to release me after I arrived at the airport, he picked me up at 4 in the morning anyway. I told him I need a quiet room, so he upgraded my rooms to the best one the hotel could offer, which is really spacious and quiet. I also bought IT&E sim cards from the hotel, and he showed me how to activate and use. Over all, the coverage is good on the island. The trip to Isleta Mañagaha was exciting, Hope contacted a local driver/guide to take me there and take me back. I'm pleased with the 2 days’ stay in the hotel.

I highly recommend this hotel. This is a great hotel located in front of a beautiful beach. Whenever you have any inquiries, the friendly staff will promptly assist you. They offer airport pick-up and drop-off services, as well as various cost-effective and excellent tours arranged by the hotel. They can also arrange taxis for you at a reasonable price. The accommodation prices are very affordable, and the hotel facilities are excellent. The Wi-Fi connection is great, and the air conditioning works well. The hot water supply is also reliable. The rooms are spacious, and you can enjoy a beautiful night sky from the balcony. I believe it would be difficult to find a hotel like this at such a price in Saipan. There are also several restaurants within walking distance of the hotel, as well as a grocery store. Great accommodation, friendly staff, and reasonable prices. I will definitely stay at this hotel when I visit Saipan again.
