Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Kupang
For the vast majority of travelers, El Tari Airport (KOE) is the primary and most practical gateway, as it is the only airport located directly within the city of Kupang. It offers the most robust selection of domestic connections and efficient, low-cost transport options like minibuses and ride-sharing services. Other airports, including D. C. Saudale Airport (RTI), Oecussi International Airport, A. A. Bere Tallo Airport (ABU), and Tardamu Airport (SAU), are situated in neighboring cities and regencies across the region. These smaller regional facilities are best reserved for those specifically visiting those areas or when flight schedules necessitate their use. Traveling from these distant locations to Kupang usually requires significant time and cost, often involving private car hires or longer bus journeys. We recommend prioritizing El Tari Airport (KOE) for your arrivals to ensure a smooth transition into the capital city. Always confirm your ground transport arrangements in advance when using remote regional airports to avoid limited service availability.

Kupang|5.53km from city center
Clan and spacious room and bathroom. I got a room facing the beach which is awesome can watch the sunset from our room.
Or going down and join the locals catching sunset just accross the road equally amazing too.
The sheets is in crisp condition.
Front front desk to housekeeping service are excellent.
The gym and pool are both great. Though beware that the pool water can get very cold even under the sun.
Since it's on the morning sun side, after 11am the pool area is very cool, perhaps not suitable for those who love sunbathing.
We didn't try their breakfast offer since we are not a breakie-persons, it their lunch at 2nd floor serves delicious lunch menu with plenty of meat and fish dishes served
We enjoyed our time here 👍🏼FromUS$33

The hotel is conveniently located. The swimming pool has a view of the beach, but it takes ten minutes to get to the beach. The breakfast was good and you could see the swimming pool and the beach.
The room has a sea view, but the facilities are a bit old;
The worst thing is that when taking a shower, the water is too weak!FromUS$21

I recommend staying here. The room I stayed in had a sea view, which was lovely. The reception area also has a nice, well-stocked mini-bar with attractive seating. The bathroom was clean and the room itself was good.
The only downsides were the breakfast, which wasn't very tasty as all the dishes were too sweet. Also, when showering, the water would splash onto the sink/mirror area, making it feel a bit flooded after a shower. Please fix that. Additionally, the sleeping pillows were very small and there were no bolster pillows.FromUS$18

The room itself is good and spacious, got my room facing a stunning sunset. While the housekeeping service is very prompt, but cleanliness needs some improvement. The gym (fitness centre) is awesome.
The swimming pool can get real busy especially after mid morning. Breakfast at Lobby area, was ok, although it's a spread, but it's typical hotel foods. Mainly serve Indonesian foods, with rice almost at every corner. Some day the rice is awfully dry, someday it's just so wet and clumpy
During peak hours can get really chaotic with short-staffed to clear the table, more often they will just clear the previous guest's dirty dishes without cleaning the table and place mat leaving the crumb behind, it's rather unpleasant for the next guest to take the seat.FromUS$22

It is a very home place with oversized rooms. Some people in the reviews are complaining that it is dirty. A few things are a bit worn but the rooms and facilities are clearn. The bedding was comfy and clean. The hot water was hot. The pool is refreshing and was also clean. People also complain about the breakfast. There is every day just one option, I thought it was quite delicious. The staff is also very friendly. They might be a little less over the top service oriented as on Java but if you ask for anything they are more than happy to help. The WIF also works well. I would say very pleasant hotel will for sure go there again!FromUS$13

All good for such a price. Strategic location near the red light. Service is also pretty good. We have tried many inns in Kupang but from the economic class there must be nothing better!
