Timor Plaza Hotel & Apartments
8.5 (51 reviews)

Timor Plaza Hotel & Apartments ★★★★

📍 Comoro, Av. Pres. Nicolau Lobato, Dili

"Good hotel in Dili, East Timor. Located in town not far from the airport. It is on the 5th floor of the Timor Plaza. The hotel has nice rooms with a good outdoor restaurant also on the top floor. We ate here for breakfast and dinner and enjoyed our meals. East Timor is still a developing country so don't expect the same level of facilities as you might find in Bali. If you visit the mall you will find the prices quite cheap in East Timor. This hotel is a nice stay for a few days."

Golgota Hotel & Resort
9.4 (19 reviews)

Golgota Hotel & Resort ★★★

📍 Comoro, Dili, Timor-Leste, Dili

"I had an early morning flight and had to check out at midnight, so I went to bed early. Just after I slept for a while, the shrill alarm sounded, so I quickly got dressed and prepared to evacuate. At this time, another shrill male voice was speaking loudly incomprehensible words. I hurried downstairs to ask the reason, and found out that someone secretly smoked and triggered the alarm... I couldn't fall asleep when I returned to the room, and checked out in a daze before three o'clock. Shouldn't the hotel apologize or even compensate me?"

8.5 (83 reviews)

Beach Garden Hotel ★★★

📍 FH23+VVV, Dili

Palm Malinamoc Hotel
8.1 (16 reviews)

Palm Malinamoc Hotel ★★★★

📍 Rua Fatuk Laletek, Malinamoc Ald. 30 Agosto, Dili

"Very good, very good, very good"

Chong TI Hotel
7.3 (5 reviews)

Chong TI Hotel ★★

📍 CHRH+RMP, Dili

"This resting place will not win any architectural awards for avant-garde design or art deco styling, but this minor setback is weighing up by an efficient cooling AC, the (for country's standard) acceptable Wifi and a reading light more than good enough for bedtime stories.  The staff may seem attentive and helpful at first, but when requested for transportation, the help didn't go beyond following up the whereabout of the driver. The amenities in the room are good. There is a minifridge, a kettle and seating place. So, this hotel, I would say, gives a lot of value for the money. But then please mind the language barrier with the staff and the smelly odor from the bathroom."

Palm Beach Hotel ★★★
"Liked · - Hotel arranged a free pickup from the airport, well planned & on-time. A free drop later as well. - Hotel is about 10-15 minutes from the airport. Location is not all that great, though close to a beach (5-min walk) which is not at all clean. The CBD is about 15-20 minutes away by car. - Checkin was smooth & fast. Checkout was pretty quick as well. Both done in less than 10 minutes. USD cash & Visa credit cards are accepted. - Staff are friendly but not very knowledgeable except the FO Manager. - Best part was the room which was huge & well furnished & maintained very well. We got a 2-bedroom apartment on the GF which did not have much of a view but was close to reception & the pool. A fully functional kitchen with microwave oven, big fridge, gas burner & cutlery. 2 attached toilets for both the rooms, a dining table with chairs and a sofa to watch TV. Toilets were clean as well. Beds, linen, lights were all good. ACs & fans in both the rooms & the living area were convenient. Power points were great, right next to the beds and had USB ports for charging. This was very helpful & highly appreciated. We did not need any adapters for any of our electronic items like phones, laptops & power banks. Even the working table had USB points & an international plug point. This is so easy to do & yet many upscale hotels do not do this! - Room also had a washing machine. - There's a small swimming pool which looked inviting but we did not have the time to use it. - Breakfast options were limited especially for vegetarians but seemed adequate for us since we eat eggs. - Taxi is called by the hotel when we want which arrives in about 10-15 minutes usually. To be paid by us separately. - The restaurant has a tie-up with a restaurant nearby who delivers to the rooms and they even have a menu of them in the rooms but we could not use them since they were closed during our stay. - Seemed like one of the better stay options in Dili and we were not disappointed by the room & hotel. Disliked · - Can't get into the dirty beach there.. sewage was being let into the beach right in front of our eyes. Can't blame this on the hotel though. - Not many restaurants around & the nearest ones would be about 15-minutes away by walk. - No public transport (not the hotel's problem again). - No restaurant on-site. Only breakfast is provided by the hotel in the morning. - No much tourist information since they focus on business/long-term travelers. - No activities except the pool. - Price was expensive for our liking.. close to $200 a night. But was lesser than other highly-rated properties. Difficult to say value-for-money but not many other good options at this price point. - Wifi Internet connectivity was just acceptable. It works in the room & reception only. Our phone network let us down & we were totally dependent on the hotel wifi. But can't complain much here since the whole of Timor is known to have very poor networks."

Chong TI Hotel ★★
"The location is excellent; you can take bus numbers 10 or 12 from the airport for 25 cents. Of course, taking a taxi is definitely more comfortable than taking the bus. There's Chinese food available, suitable for those who don't like Indonesian cuisine. With a little painting of the walls and a change of the bedding, the overall feel is very upscale. In East Timor, where prices are relatively high, you get what you pay for. Initially, I hesitated to book a hotel around 500 RMB, but East Timor is more suitable for the average consumer. Many Chinese people do business there; the overall environment is safe, clean, and the people are generally well-mannered. By the way, some information: Andrographis paniculata and Hedyotis diffusa are commonly used medicines in East Timor if it's inconvenient to see a doctor locally. They can be boiled in water to reduce inflammation for sore throats and to treat stomach upset caused by dampness and heat."
