Really enjoyed my stay at Meci hotel. The location is ideal, a short 7-8 minute walk from the train station. The staff were welcoming, the reception area is really cute with shop selling local indigenous made products, free tea, coffee, snacks and ice cream. They also have bikes for rent. Close to shops and restaurants.

It’s more the standard of a hostel with private rooms than a hotel. Downstairs communal area is nice, with free ice lollies, tea and coffee. They do not do breakfast. Rooms are very cramped, particularly if you are a couple and not well designed; kept stubbing toes and tripping over the step to the bathroom. Shower was weird. Lights to room are by the bed, not by the door. No where really to put your bags, it’s so cramped. Also we asked them to make up the room, and all they did was empty the bins and add a few cups. Didn’t make it change the bed, towels, nor replace the tea. Not a great job. Staff were generally nice and helpful though. Would we stay there again? No.

Here’s a refined version of your review:

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while the location is very convenient, the overall experience was disappointing due to its messiness. The hotel is situated in a historic area near the railroad station, making it easy for travelers like me to commute. From here, I could easily visit My Market, the traditional market, and the Pacific Ocean Park.One of the highlights of this location is the free bike rental, which allowed me to explore the nearby trails, including the scenic Cheung trails. This added a lot of value to my trip and made getting around effortless. this hotel is an excellent choice due to its prime location and accessibility.

Wonderful stay at Meci Hotel

The hotel is a 7-min walk from Hualien train station. Hotel room was a tad small but all the facilities were well-kept and organised. Love the amenities in and around the hotel. There is free flow snacks (biscuits, crackers and sweets) and drinks (coffee, tea, soft drinks and iced tea). Hish speed wifi in the lobby and room. Bicycles for rent free. Washing and drying of clothes at a fee. There is a breakfast shop just beside the hotel (closed on Sundays) and it is amazing! Other food options are very nearby too (Tasty steak next door and neighbourhood eateries near the train station). If you want to get a cab, Uber does not work in Hualien and Yilan, download 呼叫小黄 (find taxi) instead.

Overall stay in this hotel is good. Though the outlook of the hotel appeared to be a bit old, the hotel interior and the rooms are of good conditions. Room is spacious for solo traveller. The hotel also provide water dispenser which has warm, hot and cold water for travellers. If you find water is not good enough, there are titbits and free flow of tea, coffee and even soft drinks at the hotel lobby too.

As for the amenities, food is around the corner and there's a breakfast shop just across the alley which sells decent food. The night markets and shopping area are about 20 to 30 minutes walk depending on your speed. If you are planning to take outbound train to other areas, the train station is around 10 minutes walk from the hotel which is quite convenient.

The only con is that you will be able to hear people walking along the corridor, the room is not as sound proof but is still not as bad.

The staff are friendly and you can borrow a bicycle to cycle around the city. The room is not exactly big, you may have to hop around if you have 2 luggage lying on the floor at the same time.

Just that walking to the other place like the art & cultural place or the night market is abit of distance and public buses are not regular.

3 Days at Meci Hotel!

- This hotel have the basics: TV, Air Condition, Good WIFI Connection and a small -very small- fridge.
- It is within walking distance from the train station but with the scorching sun, it seems that you are walking forever!
- This hotel -in Haulien- looks like a hostel. Not my preference
- The check in is very un-usual: They do not allow anybody to check in before 15:00 hours. And it become a mess with so many people trying to get their rooms as soon as possible. I did not like this procedure. I was second on line but the third to be attended. Go figure!
- I got a single room with 2 twin beds. I did not like that either! I spoke to the manager who offered to change it the next day. I did not take his offer. I stayed at this property because my credit card was already charged at the time of the reservation.
- Will I return to this hotel? Probably not.

Great stop for a short trip

We stayed 2 nights at the Meci in September. It's a 10 minute walk from Hualien station - not too hard with a few suitcases.

Very friendly staff who pointed out all the important things we'd need (laundry, supermarket, 7/11 etc.). They'd clearly thought about what would be important to travellers, so a very nice touch. Nice foyer area with free access to soft drinks, coffee as well as amenities etc. - the drinks in particular were very much welcomed after a hot day outside!

The room was small but quiet, and had everything we needed. It was comfortable enough to hang out in for a short period of time, which was great for the purpose of our trip. I'm not sure if the WiFi worked, but we had fast data on our mobiles so no dramas.

Breakfast was interesting - the team went to a lot of trouble to make us a nice big breakfast, although in the heat we were only really in need of a few pastries.

We'd happily return to the Meci on our next trip to Hualien / Taroko Gorge.

We arrived in the afternoon and the staff who attended to us was friendly and attentive. She helped us to book a tour to Taroko National Park. The room we stayed in had a good view of the faraway mountains. Bed sheets and towels were fresh and clean.

Nice hotel close to train, food and shopping

This hotel is within 6 to 8 minutes from Hualien train station. The night market is 30 minutes walk from the hotel. There are lots of snacks restaurants along the way. Hotel breakfast is ok, better than average budget hotel. The room is on the small size. The staff is great, you can ask them where to eat and visit. They also provide tour package information to the nearby Taroko National park.

Overall GOOD!

Great staff and amenities such as free bike rentals, snacks, and bottled drinks! The staff is very helpful with planning events and their English is good. Rooms are a bit small, but we didn't spend much time in them anyway. One downside is that toilet paper goes into the trash and is not flushed down the toilet.

Cosy and convenient hotel, excellent staff

Cosy, simple hotel with pleasant and very clean rooms, and a cafe downstairs where you can help yourself to coffee and tidbits.

Convenience is high. It's five minutes on foot from the train station and 2km from the city centre. This is key because a lot of the activities and transport in Hualien centers around the train station - crucially, Taroko Gorge, which you'll need to either hop on the bus or rent a car to go to, both of which are largely only available near the train station. The 2km distance from the city center isn't a bad thing because a) Hualien's strength is its nature and there isn't that much going on at the center, b) Meci hotel offers free bike rental, effectively halving that distance.

Most importantly, the young people running the hotel are friendly, sincere and very helpful. They helped me rent a car on short notice, gave me critical advice on how to navigate through the Taroko and where the good spots are, and were readily offering insights and recommendations on the city.
