Our room was quite large, it had two queen beds, fridge, TV (old tube style) and more than adequate storage. From what we could tell, all rooms are not the same at this Hotel. All rooms appear to be on the third floor, with no elevator service (2nd floor retail/office space). They do provide clean drinkable bottled water (hot/cold) that is available from the water cooler on the third floor. Do not drink the tap water. The staff is very helpful, accommodating and speaks English. If you have any questions, they will go out of their way to assist. Most of the guests staying at this hotel are Japanese. The only issue I would have is that the rooms are rough and in need of maintenance. New paint, repairing of grout on the floors and in the bathroom, etc. As for the view from the balcony - what view, there is no view. There is no pool, internet, or fitness center at this facility. As for location, not bad as there is shopping, grocery stores, and dining within an easy 5 - 15 minute walk from the hotel.
Would I return: only if there are better priced accommodations available, and the hotel is maintained to a higher level. Would I recommend this hotel: depends on your budget and how much time you spend in the room. If you are out most of the time, then this accommodation should be adequate.
Note: that the pictures accompanying this review make the establishment look better than it really is.

"There is absolutely no other better accommodation in Palau like VIP Guest House. I must say, the location is perfect, I was literally living in the centre of downtown, surrounded by 3 main Supermarkets, restaurants, banks, ATM, car rental companies, printing shops, clinics, etc, all within 5-minute walking distance. I stayed for a month, portable kitchen was provided at no additional cost, what an amazing idea. One more bonus, each & every staff at VIP Guest House including GM treated me not only their VIP, actually it was like Family, the true feeling of Home Sweet Home. Last but not least, this is definitely a Pet Friendly Hotel, all employees are Pet Lovers, there even has several Dog Ambassadors, can you imagine!"

Whether it be for business or pleasure, VIP Guest Hotel is my go-to for all my trips in Palau. It’s only a few minutes away from the major shopping centers and restaurants in Main Street. Vivien, Bill and their amazing staff are the nicest people I’ve ever met and are very generous and accommodating . The rooms are extremely spacious, clean, and not to mention affordable. I always feel like home when I stay here and I highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Palau.
