  • Price$70-100
  • CategoryBudget
  • Rating★ 3.7

Palasia Hotel Palau is positioned on Lebuu Street in central Koror, within straightforward walking distance of the main dive shops, restaurants, and local transport that form the operational core of any Palau visit. The central location is the hotel's primary asset for budget-conscious travellers, eliminating taxi costs for the routine movements between accommodation, dive operators, and dining options that accumulate over a multi-night stay in a destination where ground transport costs are relatively high.

Budget-friendly hotel offering simple, clean rooms with essential amenities in downtown Koror. Great location for exploring the island and easy access to dive shops and restaurants. Popular with backpackers and budget travelers for its friendly staff and reasonable rates.

Palasia Hotel Palau is positioned on Lebuu Street in central Koror, within straightforward walking distance of the main dive shops, restaurants, and local transport that form the operational core of any Palau visit. The central location is the hotel's primary asset for budget-conscious travellers, eliminating taxi costs for the routine movements between accommodation, dive operators, and dining options that accumulate over a multi-night stay in a destination where ground transport costs are relatively high.

Rooms are clean and simply furnished, with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi covering the essential requirements of most guests. Private bathrooms are standard across room categories. The style is functional rather than decorative, reflecting the hotel's positioning as an affordable base rather than a destination in itself. A range of restaurants within a short walk covers breakfast and evening dining needs at different price points, from local Palauan eateries to slightly more polished international options.

The tour desk connects guests with local operators running Jellyfish Lake tours, diving excursions to the Rock Islands, kayaking day trips, and Peleliu war history tours — a destination that combines world-class dive wrecks with significant Second World War battlefield sites. Laundry service is available on-site. Airport shuttle transfers can be arranged for an additional fee, a practical consideration given the limited taxi availability at Roman Tmetuchl International Airport during peak arrival periods. Bike rentals offer an affordable way to move around Koror's compact road network.

The hotel caters primarily to solo travellers, budget-conscious divers, and backpackers who are satisfied with straightforward accommodation and allocate their spending toward experiences rather than room quality. In a market where genuinely affordable options are limited, Palasia Hotel Palau covers the basics reliably.

Tips for visiting

  • The neighbourhood immediately around the hotel has several budget-friendly local restaurants where a full breakfast costs a fraction of hotel restaurant prices
  • Book diving and Jellyfish Lake excursions through the tour desk or directly with operators on Lebuu Street; availability at preferred times is not guaranteed without advance planning
  • Pre-arrange the airport transfer when booking — taxis at Airai airport are not reliably available on demand, particularly for late afternoon arrivals
  • Bike rentals are a practical transport option for Koror's flat central area; the market, waterfront, and main dive shops are all reachable by cycle
  • Pack light if possible — laundry service allows extended stays without excess baggage, and luggage storage can typically be arranged with reception on departure day

When to visit
