Comfortable stay with friendly staff
Pros:

Spacious comfy rooms. Uber comfy beds. Provided toiletries/shower cap/vanity kit/hair dryer. No slippers. Wonderful airport pick up and drop off - Momen was so welcoming upon arrival. Good breakfast considering small property. Very good location - walkable to a lot of spots

Cons:

Need to pay for late check out. Odd flight times result in uber late check in and uber late check out. So plan on paying 1/2 day extra if you have an early morning flight out

Good value for money if you get a room with a view and accept Palau as a pricy destination
Pros:

Amazing and helpful front desk staff, I arrived very early in the morning and was allowed to use the gym shower and lay a little in the hammock in the garden of the hotel, my corner room facing away from the street had a beautiful view over the bay of Koror. Very clean room. And complementary shuttle service were a big plus. Considering how expensive Palau is this hotel was a good deal at 250USD / night.

Cons:

Palau is a very pricy destination. Breakfast is better than at other places (I was in 3 Hotels on Palau) but there is room for improvement, funny enough everything is very available and compared to Switzerland not that much more expensive. I for example fancy salmon in the morning, so I bought it myself and brought it to the breakfast table which was perfectly fine for the staff.

Goed hotel met beetje dure luchthaven shuttle.
Pros:

De locatie is prima. midden in het centrum. Ontbijt is goed. Ze hebben een leuk zwembad met waterval.
Het hotel heeft een luchthaven shuttle. Dat heb je wel nodig.
(Ik heb geen taxi gezien op Palau en lopen ga je ook niet redden.)

Cons:

De prijs van de luchthaven shuttle. 100 dollar heen en terug (90 euro). En dat voor 9 km!!
Verder was alles prima.

Tiptop, bij een volgende bezoek aan Palau boeken we weer het Palau Central Hotel!
Pros:

We hadden een rustige kamer aan de achterzijde, met een heerlijk comfortabel kingsize bed. Goeie badkamer met alles erop en eraan: Japans toilet, zalige regendouche, koud en warm water. Leuk extraatje: ruime koelkast waar we wat drank in konden bewaren. Hoefden we niet zitten te bibberen in de bar.

Cons:

Het ontbijt was weinig gevarieerd. Wel lekkere koffie. Ook het eten in The Canoe House vonden we niet zo evenwichtig: teveel koolhydraten en vet. Restaurant en bar waren wel gezellig ingericht, maar de airco stond er veel te koud.

Pros:

I am a diver and have been to Palau -20 times over the years and my first time at Palau Central and I will be back.
People were friendly and efficient. The property is immaculate. The ac, wifi and water pressure great. 5” walk to multiple good restaurants and the restaurant/bar - Canoe is convenient option.
