Situated southeast of the Philippines, Palau is one of the world’s most renowned scuba diving spots. Boasting mysterious shipwrecks and a wealth of diverse marine life, it’s no wonder this cluster of limestone and volcanic islands is dubbed ‘the Serengeti of the Sea”. The Blue Corner is located less than an hour’s boat ride from most resorts and is undoubtedly Palau’s most popular dive site. This shark-tooth-shaped point extends out into the open ocean and is surrounded by the likes of barracudas and grey reef sharks. Due to Palau’s strong currents, most sites are recommended for more experienced divers. If scuba diving isn’t your thing, you can enjoy a spot of snorkelling at Long Island Park or Nikko Bay. Local operators also offer day trips to the Rock Islands which include kayaking tours. Palau caters for budget, mid-range and luxury stays, with a number of guest houses, hotels and high-end resorts scattered around. The bulk of properties is located on Koror Island.

Featuring free WiFi, Palau Paradise Comfort is situated in Koror. Featuring a terrace, the 2-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom.
Guest review
Everything was perfect.
The room is a studio with kitchen- corner. The air-condition works very well.
The breakfast-box every early morning was left near the door. It was big, everyday different. There is one on the foto - rice with meat and some vegetables.
The location is close to the beach and to the museum.
Stephanie, the menager, is a very nice person.
She wrote me in advance and helped book the tours. The comunication with her was easy and pleasant. She answered to my messages in 5-10 minutes.

West Plaza Downtown features free WiFi throughout the property and views of city in Koror. There is free private parking and the property provides paid airport shuttle service.
Guest review
The staff are very friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is central and within the city centre. The entrance is not appealing and not the ambiance of a hotel. The room was a good size but somewhat dated. The reception arranged a snorkelling trip with Impac Tours to Rock Islands, including Jellyfish Lake, Shark city, Natural Arch and Milkyway which was fantastic. Large shopping centre, restaurants and cafés within walking distance. Good gift shop with traditional storyboards at Belau Museum. The West Plaza group has another hotel across the road at Lebuu Street which seems much newer.
Situated in Koror, Ocean Star Hotel offers 4-star accommodation with a shared lounge, a terrace and a restaurant.
Guest review
It was such mistaken when I thought I got unauthorized credit card spending in hotel. I really appreciate the staff patient and help! They provide immediately help and clarification for me. It turns out that it was not from hotel spending. Thanks a lot! And the Manger Flora is super nice and friendly!

Everyone who works there was so nice and helpful even for something irrelevant to the facility. The location is convenient, it is not too far from town and airport but not in the middle of the chaos.
