“Very comfortable overnight stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2013

Loved the shower and my room had all I needed for one nights stay. Mind you, I had just been on a mine site for the past 14 days! Had dinner in the restaurant - recommend you have the buffet as great selection, as much as you want and much faster than ordering off the menu. Would have loved free... More

“Good, safe haven in Port Moresby”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2013

Facilities are very nice. The room is comfortable with an adequate bathroom. The staff is friendly and tries hard but needs better training is this property aspires to become a true 4-star property. Most guests appear to be business travelers so the lack of internet access in the room is what cause me to downgrade from "very good" to average.... More

“Great place for short business trips”

Stayed here for 5 nights on a business tour. Good location in the city. Rooms very clean, great gym, professional and efficient staff at the front desk. Very safe. As a female traveller to the city never felt threatened for once. Great place however the food can be improved upon and the lack of variety in food becomes an inconvenience... More

“Excellent place for a business traveller”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2013

In summary: this is one of the top one or two places to stay in Port Moresby if you are a business traveller who cares about safety. As people keep commenting here, the Grand Papua is not cheap - but Port Moresby is a town where people value their security and the GP does that very well. It hasn't had... More

Some would say it is impossible to find true five star luxury anywhere in PNG , but alongside the Airways the Grand Papua makes a damn good effort at it , and has the advantage that it is right in the heart of he CBD. The menu ,especially at lunchtime , is rather limited but the quality of the food... More

“OK but get in early!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 April 2013

Stayed here a few times while the opening specials were on, I believe the price is astronomical now, even by POM prices. Anyway, I think this place is going to look pretty tired pretty quick, the fit and finish in the rooms has that not built to last feel about it. Plus somebody should have told the architect water runs... More

“Good quality but price is a rip-off”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 March 2013

I knoww that expatried-style hotel in emerging locations are usually expensive but this one is a real rip-off: ended paying over $600 for room only (no bakfast, no internet, no amenities). Quality is ok, rooms are standard, service is still fine-tunning, proce is crazy.
