Excellent time spent at the Palau Central! They kept our bags safe all day and allowed us to utilize their services, eve
Pros:

Extremely helpful staff. Very clean facility with a very nice buffet breakfast each morning. Coffee all day with cookies available. The staff would go out of their way to drive you somewhere or call A. tour company for you. It’s probably one of the best places to stay on Palau and the location and amenities were great. We would stay there again when we return to Palau for another amazing vacation.

10/10 recommend this boutique hotel
Pros:

The location was perfect, right in the heart of Koror. The free breakfast was excellent and had many options including made to order eggs/omelettes. One of the best restaurants on island, The Canoe House, is located in the hotel and is open 11:30am-11:00pm with a full bar and Karaoke/live music most nights. Excellent pizzas, pasta, fish and sandwiches. The beds and pillows are top quality, very comfortable. The staff is super friendly and helpful. My room also had an oversized claw foot tub that was a perfect way to relax at the end of the night.

Cons:

The hot water side of the tub faucet had very low pressure and took really long to fill up.

Super Aufenthalt, sehr angenehm
Pros:

Zimmer war super und hatte einen Balkon. Das Hotel hat einen guten Pool und einen Fitnessraum. Der Pool schaut auf den Fotos recht klein aus, hat aber eine seichtere Seite, wo man stehen kann, und eine recht tiefe Seite, wo man reinspringen kann. Dort ist auch ein Wasserfall. Ausserden gibt es zahlreiche Liegen, Hängematten, Spiele, Schaukelstühle in dem Garten, der von Fackellichtern umrahmt ist, was nachts super aussieht. Ans Hotel angeschlossen ist auch ein Restaurant, von dem aus man ins Zimmer oder an den Pool bestellen kann.

Gegenüber vom Hotel gibt es einen kleinen Supermarkt. Dort sind die Getränke wesentlich günstiger. Hinter dem Hotel gibt es eine Wäscherei, wo man günstig waschen kann. Paar Schrtte entlang der Hauptstraße weitee gibt es genug Restaurants zur Auswahl.

Wasser und Kaffee sind im Hotel unbegrenzt und kostenlos erhältlich.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war ok, es hätte aber etwas vielfältiger sein können. Das Hotel hat - wie die meisten in Palau - keinen Strandzugang. Das hat uns aber nicht gestört, wir wussten das ja vorher schon.

Comfortable
Pros:

Was comfy and the rooms were a good size. The pool area was very nice. Breakfast was good each morning and the bar/restaurant in the hotel was great! We ate in there every night and didn’t get bored. Staff in the hotel and especially in the restaurant were very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

Strange smell coming from the drains in the bathroom that was pretty unpleasant but not bad enough to cause any problems.
