Find Hotels in Koror Island, Palau

Our family of 7 was supposed to be picked up at 4:00 AM from the airport after traveling 23 hours from the states. The hotel forgot and weren't helpful until a local called for us. Even though our rooms were vacant, we couldn't check in until 2:00 OR pay the rack rate plus 17%. Staff was friendly but not accommodating. Hotel food was expensive and ok. Be aware of all the hidden conservation and service fees on Palau!! $50 US per person to leave the island. $100 US per person to visit Jellyfish Lake added to your excursion charges. If you know what to expect, it's easier to deal with the added expense. Beautiful island with tons of incredible scenery. I would stay at this hotel again as it appears to be one of the nicest in Koror

Stayed in the motel for seven nights. Hotel staff anticipated my late arrival and were ready to check me in. Bed was extremely large, and rooms are really new. Extremely clean, and the air-conditioning worked a treat. Staff were friendly, and would offer immediate assistance. There is no free wifi in the hotel, and do not expect the (paid) wifi to be fast. This is a limitation of Palau, not of the hotel. The Motel is situated towards the southern end of Main Street, and is a few minutes' walk from a supermarket, as well as the various restaurants and nightlife areas of Koror. It's within walking distance of the tour operator IMPAC, and all other tour operators known DW Motel, and offer pickup and drop offs from the motel, so you always within reach of a tour company.

Complimentary transport was provided from and to the airport, though the request may need to go via a translator over their phone as the staff struggled to understand English. Hotel is in a reasonable location at the end of the main town and between two islands connected by road ways with pedestrian paths. Various mini-marts are a few hundred meters walk away. There are no particular views from the location, other than of the much more expensive hotel next door, but the room was well equipped and modern with good air-conditioning, spare powerpoints, new furniture, TV, tea making and all toiletries provided including toothpaste and a razor. Not sound proofed so can hear the other guests if they decide to make noise, but main issue for couples would be that the bathroom walls are glass with an opaque middle section, so there’s only semi privacy at best. There are ferry / diving / boat cruise terminals within a couple of hundred metres, 3am arrival normal, residentials and hotel nextdoor.

Arrived at 1:30am due to my flight arrival time. There is no elevator for people; there is one for your luggage. There are no rooms on the first floor, so anyone with a wheelchair-type disability is out of luck. There's a sign by the bathroom sink in each room that says "Do Not Drink This Water." There are also two empty plastic water pitchers in the room. I went down to the desk and informed them there is no drinking water in my room. They pointed me to a refrigerated display case full of drinks (including bottled water) and said $1 per bottle. I realize on an island like Palau running water is more expensive than electricity, but they need to rework their pricing and be more accommodating to their guests. That would include clean smelling rooms and unstaimed bed linens. Hard to believe the main industry there is tourism.

Stayed at the West Plaza by the Sea on August 2015 for 3 nights on a work trip. Went by fellow traveller reviews when picking this hotel as we were looking for options below AUD$200 per night, am very glad I did. The location is excellent in that it is not far from everything but being off the main road it is that bit quieter. The staff were lovely, Irene was excellent. You need to pay for internet access and as the island does not yet have a fiber optic connection is can be quite slow. This is the case right across the island though, and they can sell you cards at the hotel that will work in a lot of hotspot locations throughout Koror. Look to rent a car to make it easy to get around the island, be careful driving at night and especially the weekend of pay week as that is when road accidents increase significantly. I would stay at this hotel again and would happily recommend it to others.

I wasn't sure how to rate this hotel. It is overpriced, but everything is overpriced in Palau. It is located in the city (not near to the beach), but there are only 2 hotels with the access to beach. It is very basic, but clean and workers are super nice. There is a supermarket in the same building. If you are there for diving it is more then good for a few nights. But, if you are stuck there due to bad weather (happened to us) you will be super bored and you will not have other choice but to move to another (way more pricier) hotel with more facilities (there are non here).

Clean and big rooms with fine view of the ocean. 10 minute walk to the Main Street where you can eat anything good including a fruit bat suop, and where you can buy anything. Our room had a kitchen sink, frig, and micro. Kitchen drawers were nailed down. No elevators. The way from Main Street to the hotel is a bit confusing, especially when driving a rented car. In total, this hotel is strongly recommended for frugal travelers. It is nice that a dining place (Rahmen shop) is open from4:00am to 11:00pm.

Great Korean scubadiving center PPDC located just across road. Best choice if you using PPDC Has great private beach. good to snokel, good to tan.
