    Wish the gym had more space. More breakfast options/variety would be great.

    Breakfast was great. Location was close to everything and very central which was great. Bedding and pillow was extremely comfortable. Staff were so welcoming and friendly. Gym had plenty of equipment to use. Love that they have a ceiling fan as well as air conditioning. The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable!

    Location was perfect, central to everything. Also the restaurant onsite was great, as well at the breakfast buffet in the morning. The bed was comfortable and rooms were nice and quiet.

    Airport Transfer Service - was good to have the option through the accommodation. However, we felt the price was pretty steep for a 15min drive. Air Conditioner in 2nd room (at the end of our stay) didn't seem to cool efficiently, and the remote was a replacement universal, so could not turn off the LED light on the main unit, which was a little annoying at night, for sleep. (If im being picky)

    Location excellent - close to eateries and shops. Cleanliness and modern outfit - could not fault the rooms. Staff - super friendly and accommodating Breakfast was lovely - nice, but simple. The Coffee/tea station was offered as unlimited use throughout stay - nice touch. We will definitely stay again :)

    It was a bit on the pricey side, but that’s how Palau is.

    It was very cozy and uncomfortable.

    Our stay was great! The staff are really friendly and helpful, and helped us book tours and a rental car. The breakfast was good as well, and we even swam in the hotel pool. The free coffee and tea during the day were especially appreciated.

    Nothing to do with the hotel - you get what you pay for. The problem for us, is that the Australian dollar does not do well against the US one, so this felt quite pricey :) No complaints though. Make sure you get a mountain/sea view room.

    This hotel was amazing. We stayed here for four nights and did not want to leave. We have a mountain view room which had the most incredible view (we did see the other rooms and the view is not as nice - onto main roads) and the bed was a comfortable cloud! Breakfast was also great, with tons of variety and eggs made to order. The pool and view from the rooftop is incredible and we loved coming back to recharge after long days out exploring. The staff are so kind and went above and beyond. We didn't want to leave.

    Don't mail any postcards mail from the Canoe House Gift Shop. They took 11 days to get to the Koror Post office.

    Staff was super helpful and hotel drivers will take you to various locations at no charge. BUT keep in mind that a few local restaurants/venues offer the same free pick up and drop off service as the hotel. We took the restaurant service a few times instead of bothering the hotel.

    Rooms could use an upgrade.

    The location was convenient, the free shuttle was always available, and the hotel was clean. The best part was the staff. They were so extremely attentive, proactive, and helpful. Probably one of the best customer service experiences I’ve ever had at a hotel.

    Palau Central was a perfect place to stay in Koror. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable. They offer a shower room even after checkout if you have activities booked on your last day, which is an excellent bonus amenity. Being attached to the Canoe House was very convenient for delicious and fun dinners at night. Highly recommend.

    Nothing really

    Excellent medium sized hotel with great customer service. Rooms good size - street view not the best but ok. Well positioned and they will give you free rides to beach and restaurants ( like most hotels in Palau I believe) so easy to access everything. We hired a car for the day for only about $60 for the day which they arranged

    Sadly the USD vs AUD makes the property on the expensive side when compared to similar properties around the world in price and room offerings

    As we had stayed in Palau Carolines (the sister property) we found the breakfast at Central 100% better is quality and offerings. The pool was a good post hot day..

    Slippery floors in restaurant in the morning 😦

    Met expectations and in comparison to other hotels in the area it’s very acceptable - it’s not a resort & doesn’t pretend to be. Restaurant is par for the course in the area & it’s welcoming and convenient
