Overall very nice stay, wonderful room

Overall very nice stay, wonderful room and great nights rest, pool could be larger, but nice area 9.3/10. Hotel was very clean and rooms appeared recently updated. Stayed on the second floor and had a view of downtown and could just see the water. Had nice shower, good temperature and pressure. Stayed in king size bed and it was one of the best beds I've slept in, very comfortable with really soft sheets. Floor was not carpet and clean. Had water available and fridge. Restaurant downstairs was fairly good, mushroom pizza was my favorite. They had a very small pool with fake grass around it, but very nice ambiance with waterfall, loungers and mountain view. Very relaxing and peaceful. Overall very nice place to stay, but would consider more quaint then luxurious. Staff was very kind and remembered me. They had an airport shuttle for my late night flight and it was cheaper than a taxi.

I stayed for 1 night before starting on a dive livaboard. I was on the last flight coming into Koror from Guam which arrived at 1 am. The hotel picked me up and took me to the hotel. Hotel desk is open all night. The room was very clean and staff was very helpful. The complimentary breakfast was great. Cooked to order eggs and omelettes. I will stay here again. Bill

Thi hotel had great large rooms with a comfy bed, a bathtub and a separate shower, and even a bidet! They were super helpful with laundry and transport, when we needed it. The breakfast was really good, they made us omelettes and poached eggs on different mornings. They also granted us early check in and late check out. The spa and restaurant were also great, I had 2 massages and we had a couple of really nice meals and drinks at the Canoe House

Wonderful!

We stayed at the Palau Central for one night before a liveaboard and one night on our return and both stays were terrific. The staff were absolutely fantastic - friendly and super efficient, couldn't have asked for better. The hotel is perfectly situated to walk to various restaurants etc, would definitely stay here again.

Twice the value at half the price for me

After checking out of an emotionally cold and expensive 5 star resort, I was so happy to have experienced Palau Central Hotel. The staff are accomodating genuinely, happy and friendly. Nothing is a problem. I really appreciated the courtesy drop offs to restaurants etc, the Canoe Bar adjoining the hotel is iconic and fun. Big comfy beds great air conditioning and big rooms too. Service and culture like this are winners . Thank you for restoring my faith and enhancing my holiday

We liked our stay at Palau Central Hotel. Betty the cook made a mean omelet. The room was a little small but we liked the inroom safety deposit box. The hotel is next to Koror's hotspot- the Canoe Restaurant & Bar. They have a daily live band where the action is. Our room attendant was very nice & accommodating. There is a fee for airport transfer. The hotel is close to Koror's main shopping center where one can buy souvenirs, groceries, fresh produce, toiletries. They also have an outdoor pool. I recommend this hotel.

We arrived the morning of check-in and was able to store luggage at front desk and enjoy the pool and outdoor games while waiting for check-in. We were able to check in a few hours early which we really appreciated after long travel days. The staff are friendly, accommodating and the room and facilities are clean and comfortable. We also enjoyed the chauffer service around Koror. We would highly recommend this hotel to future travelers and can't wait to stay here our next trip to Palau!

The staff was kind and helpful. Great restaurant downstairs. The rooms and bathrooms were updated. Central to downtown and restaurants. Access to tea and water all day. Great WiFi. Hotel provides transportation to nearby locations and was helpful with great tours. All staff were very friendly. Cons: not the close ocean view that we expected. Breakfast was the same every other day, but you can order off the buffet. Far from the ocean, but the hotel can take you there. Shower didn’t get hot, only warm.

Looks can be deceiving. Out in front was a kareokee party ar the Canoe House (which is attached). Once you walk into the hotel that you go loud vibe fades. The hotel has beautiful wood work and firstly class n service My husband was in the ER and they immediately checked me into my room, helped me deliver the bags and asked how they could help. Whether you have needs or not they are always asking how they can help. They have a shared car service for free. Meaning they will drive you anywhere around the island an in a van or car free. The morning breakfast is free and can also be turned into room service for a small amount. Same with the famous Canoe House and their food can also Ben room services for a small fee. Now we did meet another couple on the island who rented a car and said the parking here wasn’t so bad they left. I don’t know aa i only used the car service. He was so nice when i needed to ho get a prescription he dropped me at the hospital and waited with me. Great hotel and would stay again!

We stayed here for three nights before a 12-day dive trip, and again for one day prior to our flight out to Guam. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, they took such great care of us. The room was spotless, beds super comfortable…breakfast daily served downstairs. The adjoining Canoe House resto/bar was a great spot to have a drink and a bite. The staff here is lovely. They helped us with dinner reservations, transportations, and even car rental for a day. The location is perfect for getting out in Korror, and it’s still very quiet. Loved the view from our room of the pool and the island greenery. Really, this place is a gem in the heart of Korror, and we cannot recommend it enough. Hopefully, one day we’ll be back to Palau, and we’ll definitely stay here again! Sulang!
