We visited several of the nicer hotels on the Island and made the right choice by choosing the Palau Royal Resort! The rooms are by far the best, with a large living area and kitchen. Very clean and well-maintained. Beautiful view and many amenities. As good as the room and location were the staff was even better! Everyone was eager to please and took good care of us!

This was a great hotel in Palau. Rooms are clean and resort is well maintained. It is one of the oldest resort but it looks like new and better then all the other resorts we visited. It is also near the boat docks so if you are going on a tour, it is an easy 2 minute walk to your boat. The only thing lacking is the buffet bar. It is always short of food and staff keep telling us there is no more.

Our family booked the PRR Holiday Promo Specials during Christmas 2022 and New Years 2023 in the beautiful and relaxing rooms (Deluxe Ocean View and Deluxe Harbor View). We had a blast relaxing, enjoying PRR features of the swimming pool, the beautiful beaches and lookout, the entertainment room and the restaurant special buffets too. It was splendid and exciting, hope to come back again soon. Thank you PRR for your hospitality and everything. It was a nice family bonding during the holidays and enjoying whatsoever too.

The hotel is top notch. The staff is gracious and extremely helpful. It has a small private beach but it is not what would be considered ocean front. It is still lovely with the beautiful green hill backdrop. The location is convenient to dive shops and downtown Korror. The spa was not open as the county had not fully returned to pre Covid tourism. However, I saw the c reduced numbers as a plus.

Spent a week at this resort. Restful and peaceful. Good location. Our ocean view room was big with all amenities. Beds were comfy. Food at the Waves restaurant was OK, more choice in days when there was more customers. The hotel has a private little beach and my kid enjoyed the pool. On the negatives: Housekeeping could be much better. There was no spa services available, no mini golf either (this was not disclosed at the time of booking). Food & drinks are overpriced so best to get it outside whenever possible. Room service was difficult to get!. I also did not get much help from hotel staff in booking activities. Also charging $5/hr for Kayak rental only within the small private beach is a bit petty.... All in all, for close to $400/night, I cannot say I got value for money. But if in koror, this is likely one of the best hotels you can get!!! As for me, I am unlikely to be back in Palau!☺️…

My three year son and I stayed here for almost two weeks and loved it! Our room overlooked the fish pond where my son loved to feed the fish. Everyone was so nice, from the front desk staff to housekeeping and they all greeted my son by name everyday. But I have to say his favorite person ever was Cherry from the front desk. He loved Cherry and always ran to give her a hug, her smile made our day. We will be back in the next few months and plan to stay here again.

Palau Royal Resort is not only a gorgeous property but the staff is highly trained on service. I visited the resort with my team last February and we were handled with care. From the first interaction from the airport by Ms. Diana, check-in was smooth as well and the food was top notch(shoutout to Chef Neil).
