Like most hotels in Guam, they left in the 80s, felt like I was on skid row with all the guys hanging around o every floor in the parking garage. Room looked like it was barely cleaned. No hot water in the shower. Got a flat tire after running over a broken bottle when parking. Elevators all feel like freight Elevators, camera are missing in them so feels very rapey. 1st two days the room wasn't made up and I returned from work at 330 and maids were still cleaning other rooms. Never getting to me. Emergency light never goes off, on all night

When I arrived at the hotel, front desk seemed confused about what room they were going to place me in. I had to wait in the lobby for 20 minutes before settling in. When I entered the room, it had a moldy smell and many cockroaches started coming out of the sinks. When I asked for a room change, they were kind enough to move me to a new location. However, it was not cleaned. They didn't bother to double check if the room was ready and just moved me into the room. I requested a refund and booked another hotel. Although the price was budget friendly, the hotel is run downed.

Hotel experiencing minor renovationions. Check in was a bit slow. Lobby is super warm. The room never got below 24 degrees Celsius even though I set it down to 18 trying to cool off the place. After alerting the staff about the TV & internet it was quickly addressed. Great food and party options nearby. Souvenirs available also along with snacks & all kinds of beverages. The oriental massage is expensive and they kept trying to have me purchase time with a lady of the night. Near the beach.

Despite the poor review I would consider coming back here for a (!) to stay the night if there is a correspondingly reasonable price. The hotel was among the cheapest to find in Guam, and unfortunately the value for money on Guam is generally extremely poor.
On the plus side, the reception staff was friendly, the room spacious, the beds comfortable and relatively clean, and the WiFi worked well.
Cons: quite bad is the musty smell both in the corridors and the rooms, obscured by any chemistry. Unfortunately, you can't hold your breath all the time, because it's really bad. Second negative for me was the shower, which never really got warm.
Overall, there is a large backlog of renovations (defective lamps, rusty installations, furniture that you fear will collapse).

I arrived in Guam on an overnight flight, so I stayed at this reasonable hotel for only the first few days. The area around the bed was clean, but the screws on the chair had come loose and it looked like it would break if I leaned on it, and the bathtub hadn't been cleaned so I didn't feel like getting in. The shower also had weak water pressure and it didn't feel like I'd been washed. The toilet looked new but didn't flush well, and I tried to use the toilet in the lobby, but it was only slightly better than the public toilets. It's fine for a short stay, but I think it could be a little neater. The staff were polite, and it was easy to go between the parking lot and the room as it was close by.

Royal Orchid Guam is a decent hotel in the Tumon area. The hotel is located along the hotel rows near the beach. It is also a 10 minute drive from the airport. Hotel rate is among the cheapest in the area. Paid around $120 per night. If you are looking for a fancy hotel, this is not for you. There’s a Tony Roma and an Italian restaurant inside the building. An always crowded ABC store, a convenience store is a few steps away. There’s also a Jamaican Grill restaurant nearby. KMart is a 10 minute walk away.
The hotel is old. So set your expectations at minimum level. The room is ok. Standard amenities are available (shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste and toothbrush and slippers). There’s a swimming pool at the 6F but looks old too.
If you’re looking for a decent place to sleep, then this hotel should be ok. Hotel staff are all nice and courteous.

My husband and I stayed at the Royal Orchid during a 2 day layover on a trip we took. It's close to the beach and in a great location with so many food and shopping options nearby! Beautifully renovated rooms and my husband loved the breakfast options! Staff was also very accommodating during our stay.

Hotel is not top notch especially if it’s run by Chinese. Cheap and the hotel has an uninviting feeling. Trash would be seen piling up with rats and roaches crawling. AC does not work well and you can feel the heat in lower lobby area. Hotel looks more like a housing area and the gravel area is terrible!

The Royal Orchid is not a bad hotel, but it's not much of a resort. If you're looking for a fun place to stay, I would avoid it like the plague.
The RO is theoretically across the street from the beach, but it's a pretty big street and a bit of a hike from there, so expect to drive to beaches. If you don't have a car, you're not going to enjoy your Guam vacation much with the RO as your base camp! The rooms are quite nice, much nicer than the comparatively priced Marriott. HOWEVER . . .
The RO is simply depressing. The cafe was closed (no explanation) the entire time I was there. The meeting spaces have apparently been converted into a permanent bingo hall. Ooh, classy. The "mall" that's attached to the hotel is listless and half-empty. The BBQ restaurant is overpriced and not very good.
If you have a car and plan to spend a lot of time in your room, I guess the RO might be OK. But I found the experience unpleasant and was more than happy to switch to the Marriott -- not that the Marriott was all chocolate and sunshine, but that's a different story.

Royal Orchid Hotel is a 205 room property that that is listed as a > hotel not a resort property so perhaps the wrong type of hotel was > chosen for the trip in the first place. We have never stated to be a resort property and our rates reflect this fact, we offer a nice little hotel with nice rooms at affordable prices. Unless you grew up on the beach you would find that the beach is very close to the hotel and is a seven minute walk from the front door of the hotel at a leisurely pace (maybe ten if you have a toddler in tow and they wander). No one would ever think of driving to the beach from our hotel as it would take you far longer to do so than to walk across the four lane street to the beach (see map on our web site). The cafe after breakfast was closed due to normal operating hours but Calvi House, Tony Roma's and Capriciossa Ristorante Italiano were all open all day long from lunch on so guests always have a place to eat when needed until 11:00 p.m. at night. All shuttle buses and trolleys to the malls and Pleasure Island entertainment zone stop at our front door and are no more than a ten minute ride from our door. Perhaps waiting for the trolley frustrated the guest but again this is the reason you pay a lower rate than some of our competitors which are bigger facilities and in a better location at twice+ the price so your choice; a car and a room is still cheaper from us and you can have the freedom to explore the island. This becomes a personal choice and should not be held as a negative factor to us as each traveler has their own needs and budget when traveling. We do note however that the guest liked our rooms which is what we strive to offer our guests so that they can save money to go out and explore our beautiful island and spend their money on shopping and activities not for the resort facilites only of one hotel. We offer nice attractive rooms at an affordable price with good restaurants and have many satisfied guests who stay in our hotel with many of them repeat guests we work hard on our service and promise to take care of our guests if we are the hotel of their choosing for a trip to Guam.

I together with my wife and 4 kids stayed at this hotel last December 26 to 30, 2005 and i found this hotel okay, in terms of rate, facilities and services. It's true that they don't have a beach front, but walking a few steps in front of their hotel, you already have 2 hotels with beach front. And if you don't intend to stay at the beach all the time, a few hours of sunbathing is already enough, lest you get sunburned. We came from a tropical country, and in my 5 days stay in guam, guam have more to offer than beaches alone. I highly recommend you try Seawalker, and Richard Rennie, GM of Royal Orchid did go out of his way, to make sure that we get a good rate, furthermore he even haggles the day tour rate of one of the beachfront hotel facing them on my behalf, for us to have a chance to enjoy the beach, that's what we call real personalized service. Why spend more, when you can enjoy all of these (accomodation and beach) at a much lower price. Other than the beach, Guam have more to offer, like Seawalker, Atlantis Submarine, K-mart, Micronesia Mall, Cost-U-Less, Sandcastle Magic on Ice, Greyhound Race Track, Gameworks, Underwater World, Duty Free shops and even intro flight.
By the way, i did happen to have an opportunity to see some of the renovated rooms being done on Royal Orchid, it's really nice and at par with 5 star hotel, and at their present rate, it's a bargain.
As they say, Satisfied customers is still the best form of advertisement!
