WHAT I LOVED

  • Rooms & Bathroom. The size of the Deluxe Room is at 55m2, which is among the largest entry level room in Taipei. The spacious rooms provide ample lounging space apart from the king-size bed. The marble bathroom is luxuriously designed with separated shower and bathtub and equipped with Diptyque amenities.
  • Spa. One of the most luxurious spas in Taiwan, with 12 treatment suites including 4 Couple’s Suites and 2 VIP Double Suites. Beautifully designed and decorated.
  • Service. Professional and consistent service. Polite and efficient during check-in and check-out.

POINTS TO NOTE

  • Location. The surrounding area is lifeless, especially at night, and all attractions are a metro or drive away. Not entirely suitable for travellers who want to experience the Taiwan’s nightlife. The hotel is 5 minutes walk to the nearest MRT station and 15 minutes drive to Taipei 101.
  • Restaurants. There are four restaurants at the hotel, as well as a cake shop and a bar, serving Italian, Chinese and International cuisine.
  • Oriental Lounge. The Oriental Lounge can only be exclusively accessed by Club guests.
  • Facilities. The hotel has a decent fitness centre, but the 20-meters swimming pool is neither impressive (resembling a ‘clubhouse’ pool) or well maintained (torn linen on the sun loungers)
  • The Arcade. Part of the arcade was still under construction during the stay period, it will provide the hotel with the much-needed atmosphere.
