Room was equiped with flat screen TV, large fridge (approx 300 litre) double bed, three quarter bed and couch. Laundry is done free of charge and usually returned same day providing you drop clothes into the plastic basket. Internet is free. Powerpoint connections were dodgy and I had to prop something against the plug to keep it from falling out.... More

The room was spacious and internet was working reasonably well. But the Dili beach hotel was very noisy at night, with loud music even during the week nights. The floor of the room was in concrete and not always clean. It is also expensive for the service one gets. Plus not that well located if one needs to be in... More

Only been to the bar. It's a very nice spot with views and pretty good western food. Slightly more expensive than competitors but that probably goes to the free wi-fi and lots of TVs. Staff are picky about currency though and don't seem to remember than 1996 actually existed. Don't tip them. More

The Dili Beach Hotel is what it is. Persaonlly i do not think that for USD $100 you get what you pay for. But having said that the restaurant and bar are always a bit of fun with many expat locals eating and drinking at the hotel. They hotel has a small pool to refresh your self in which is... More

Accomodation is a variety of rooms ranging in price & quality, if you are prepared to pay $100 a night you will get a lovely room in a lovely location. However if your budget is alittle tighter you can fnd better valued accomodation in Dili. Bar/ Restaurant is here too, be careful of the food. Have eated a few tinmes... More

Although not the cheapest, there is, since the demise of the Hotel Turismo, a lack of good places to stay in Dili. Dili Beach hotel has going for it - a good location, beautiful view from the restaurant - good food, now the Burmese chefs have taken over the kitchen - internet in every room at no extra costs -...

What you will think of the Dili Beach Hotel is likely up to what you expect it to be. Dili is starting to develop, but let's face it, it is not going to be on par with even rural Hawaii. So don't get your hopes up. Dili Beach Hotel is easy to find, on a major road. As you come... More

After the hotel completely messed up my booking with them and ended up charging me for an inferior room type than I have paid for I will never book with this hotel again. I do not recommend dealing with them in any way shape or form! They refused to refund me the money owing to me but I have been... More

Overall, it's a 'good' hotel for Dili, but after a week I moved next door to the Castaway and it was a vast improvement at a much cheaper rate. My room at Dilii Beach Hotel was large and had a broadband internet connection, air conditioning, satellite TV and a fridge. The bathroom smelt badly of sewerage, and I heard other... More
