It's in the lower section of a building so check in is located downstairs. The hotel is clean, functional, and you can get a good rate. The staff is super friendly. The shower pressure is good and gets nice and hot. Love the heated bathroom seat. Bed was comfortable. Didn't see a microwave but my room had a fridge. Outlets are plentiful and well placed. Room is in a basement so no view and not a lot of or in some rooms no natural lighting. But good interior lighting. Great restaurants next door. Plenty of shopping for all your needs within walking distance. Subway is right next door. Taipei 101 tower right across the street. I don't know if they any other amenities but I think they have laundry room. I would stay again.

Location to 101 was great. However much older hotel than expected. Not a big deal, but something to keep in mind. Photos look better online. Room walls are also very thin, so easy to hear neighbors. No privacy for restroom or toilet, as only separated by plexi-glass. Basically located right next to your bed. Staff very friendly and helpful.

The location is very convenient from bus, train stations, e-bike, shopping centers and attraction is great!.

Staff are very helpful, kind and nice. I appreciate them so much.

Air condition was too cold, tried several times to adjusted it but it wont make any changes, maybe because it was already set as is.

Our bathroom doors height is not through celling or not close totally- only halfway if you’re staying with friends or family its not comfortable to do your “business” as they can hear it and eventually can smell it too its a very uncomfortable.
Hotel room are non smoking room but when we checked-in our room smells cigarette.

Upon reserving and checkin, we weren't informed that some other part of the hotel are under construction, my mom wasnt feeling well so we stayed in the room whole day and we cant rest properly due to construction noice, the drilling and hammering was too loud from 10am-5pm . Informed the Frontdesk about it and she only said the construction will end at 5pm.

We request an airport transfer it was very convenient as well and our driver was so nice.

Overall it was a perfect location for everything and good service.

Difficult to find

Hotel location was misleading. It’s actually across the street from Taipei 101, not at
The mall. Spent over 20 minutes 10pm at
Ight trying to find someone who knew its location. My flight was from US so lost a day so the front desk consider me a no show and deleted my reservation. Almost had to find another hotel by 11 pm. Breakfast was good however rooms where not clean ones to the standard of a normal hotel. Vents and furniture dusty. My door lock was not functioning so I had to be moved. I thinks is a great location however needs more full disclosures to manage expectations. Not many hotel options in the immediate area.

Tucked in the heart of Taipei via Xinyi district with a lovely terrace view filled with greens and outdoor seats that look up directly at the Taipei 101 tower. Adjacent to the terrace pass is the metro station. The interior was serene and modern. The hotel vibe is quiet with friendly staff.

No hot water for our stay of 2 nights, they boiled pots of water to bring to each room. no fault of staff, but insane that they had no maintenance staff to fix issue. Heating is central, so your thermostat in the room doesn't do anything, it's controlled by central panel and they kept it at 16 degrees C, which was WAY TOO COLD for winter in taiwan.

Great location for shops/malls and food venues (fast food, sit down, and grocery). Staff was very helpful and accommodating. English with the staff was no problem. We rented a windowed room but the only view you will see a wall and plants and the windows do not open to the outside. All rooms are the same in design, so paying extra for a room with a window is not recommended unless you just need to see sunlight during the day. Location was also very safe. Walking around (day or night) was very pleasant and recommend visiting Taipei 101 building which is only across the street from the hotel. Underground train station is located just a step away and doesn't affect noise in the hotel.

The hotel is just a traffic light across Taipei 101. Excellent location for moving around Xinyi district. Room is very basic. Wash basin being directly behind the front door is uncommon, but not a problem. Wi-Fi seems to be unstable at times.

It was so loud that I wasn’t able to sleep until after they closed. If you have children, I do not recommend. Also, the first room I check into had a very strong mold smell and there was a considerable amount of mold on the walls. The staff changed my room immediately and was very accommodating.

The hotel is right across three street from Taipei 101. You really can't do better than that. The room was acceptable in size, though the bathroom layout was less than ideal. But at least there was a wall between the shower and the toilet, unlike many other places in Taiwan. But there was no bidet. The bed was hard, but not rock hard. After ten days sleeping in Taiwan, I got used to the harder beds there. The WiFi password was a long series of numbers. Why not use a few letters too, to make it easier to enter.

Excellent comfortable choice, but no bidet

The breakfast stuck in my mind. The orange juice was fresh squeezed, very tasty. The breakfast meat slices sure tasted weird. It was labeled \"ham.\" Probably because of the spices, not the freshness. The sausages also tasted funky. I've stayed in Taiwan hundreds of nights, and am used to the food, but this flavor was out there. It is probably a delicacy in Taiwan!
The porridge tasted excellent, but was cold. That temperature was probably intentional, given the high heat and humidity outdoors.
The thermostat was too hard to figure out. We had to shut off the A/C to avoid freezing. Of course, then it got too hot after a while. Instructions would be nice to have. That is why comfort is not a five rating. The shower was great, nice a spacious too. But no bidet, that is a disappoinment for a higher end Taiwanese hotel. The bed was hard, but not so hard it wouldn't be ok for most Caucasians.
