For the majority of travelers, Mutiara SIS Al-Jufri International Airport (PLW) is the primary and most convenient entry point. Located within the city of Palu, it handles domestic flights and provides easy access to the city center via taxi or ride-sharing apps, which remain the top recommendation for comfort and efficiency. While it is the only airport situated in the city itself, other options exist in neighboring regions. Poso Airport (PSJ), serving Poso, is located in a different city and requires a significant multi-hour overland journey to reach Palu, making it suitable only for those whose travel plans specifically involve the Poso Regency. Similarly, Tanjung Api Airport (OJU) is located in Ampana and serves the Tojo Una-Una Regency; it is not an airport of Palu and necessitates an even longer transit time for those attempting to reach the provincial capital. Travelers prioritizing speed and convenience should exclusively choose the Palu-based hub, while those arriving elsewhere should be prepared for substantial ground travel.

It is one of the newest hotel in Palu. It is a great concept but average execution. Hotel visions as like the boutique hotel in French. European Classic type. I have twin room type one night stay and deluxe queen the next day . The twin room felt full packed of furniture and make no space to move around. Towels and bed are new so it was nice. The shower however was not enjoyable. Water flow out was terrible with no door make water flood out of the shower box. Inside the shower box, only found a bottle of body wash (but no label) and no shampoo. Breakfast is average, open kitchen is a bit noisy. Sofa tables are rarely used because of table high position makes no sense when eating.FromUS$26

So far in my opinion the best hotel in the city. Because the location is strategic, complete facilities, friendly staff, cleanliness is maintained but with affordable price.
The front desk is friendly and helpful. Before coming, I have filled in a special message such as a room on a high floor and near the elevator, and when I checked in my room was on a high floor and right next to the elevator. Without being asked, the officer has explained everything that guests need to know in a friendly and warm manner.
If I go to Hammer City again, I want to stay here again. Recommended.FromUS$39

Staying at Aston Palu was quite comfortable. The room was clean, the bed was soft, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. The staff were friendly and helped with a quick check-in. The view from the room was decent, especially if you got a higher floor. Breakfast was alright, not a huge variety but the taste was good. The swimming pool was clean, although the area around it could get a bit crowded sometimes. The location is easily accessible. Overall, it was a good stay.FromUS$41
