East Timor Hotels, Hostels & Accommodation

Dili’s accommodation is nothing to write home about, expect sit-down loos and air conditioning and, well, little more. Accommodation with adjoining restaurants/bars are a good idea for those who’d prefer not to travel around at night. Elsewhere, don’t expect anything swank – if you get a clean room with good mosquito nets and a few hours of electricity for reading and a fan, you’re doing well.

In most places you will be able to find some sort of accommodation, even if it is a homestay (offer US$10 a night). Washing facilities are likely to be Indonesian mandi style. A mandi is a large concrete water tank from where you scoop water to wash yourself. Don’t jump in!

The costs per room are indicated in our reviews by the following categories: budget ($), under US$15; midrange ($$), US$15 to US$100; and top end ($$$) more than US$100.
