Applause In The Mountain Reviews

The best homestay near Alishan area. The hosts are very welcoming and they always try their best to help as much as possible. The homestay is located in a tea and coffee farm. Scenery is great value for money and they also have their own sunrise trail. Located hear Fushan trail and 20 mins walk from Fushan bus stop.

If you are not engaging private transportation to hostel & using public bus then alight at main road. Do call in advance to get staff to pick at bus stop or else will be a long 1.5KM walk & not recommended to walk during dark or rainy day. The room are great if you stay lower floor. There no lift so all are by stairs. I stay at level3 with big luggage so imagine the efforts to bring up & down. Dinner option only hotpot & lucky the meal are great. The cafe within hostel are good so do try. Sunrise spot are good & easy to reach but depend on weather. do go early for good spot to sit down & wait since hostel Will always having big tour bus staying.

Great location. The rooms are nice, big and clean and has a balcony that gives an amazing view of the mountain! Breakfast has a spread of foods that remind you of home-cooked food. They provide individual hotpots for dinner - great for the cold weather with fresh ingredients (although the soup is pretty bland). All in all a great stay 😊

The staff were very kind and friendly. We had to make some changes due to Typhoon, the hotel staff helped us move to a quieter room and arranged a transportation to a nearby station to catch a bus to go back to HSR Chiayi station. We are very grateful for the help. The hot pot dinner was wonderful!! Alishan National park area was closed because of Typhoon, but we could still enjoy the trails near the hotel.

It's located at the base of Alishan, so it will take about another 30mins to ride up to Alishan ticket entrance where one needs to take train to the inner forest. The breakfast is not fantastic (coffee is really bad). For dinner, you will be stuck at the hotel (unless self drive) so you will need to order their hotpot set (they only have that), and it is at least better than their breakfast. The hotpot set consisted of a hotpot, a portion of shabu-shabu pork slices, a portion of mixed vegs and rice was free. Tsingtao cost NT100/big bottle. The hotpot set goes by per pax, and is not shareable, cost NT390/set. We booked 2-double bed room with balcony. While the room was huge, the amenities were few, and the bathroom smelled a bit stinky and the area generally didn't feel clean. The bathroom had a bathtub which I didn't feel it was clean enough to take a soak (plus it was really cold). It'd have been much better if it's a standing shower area instead of a tub. All in, I would suggest to book elsewhere or to stay in a hotel right in Alishan to reduce traveling logistics.

Thank you to the store for the thoughtful upgrade. The comfortable dining environment on the top of the mountain and looking out over the valley is really great. Considering the quality of the B&B, the breakfast is very rich (some people said that the breakfast was very poor when I checked online for prices). I really feel that See people and see their wisdom! 👀See so many flying purple-spotted butterflies❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 It is not easy to survive and transport in the mountains. Thank you for the comfort of the B&B + the beautiful mountain views👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻I will come back for vacation next time when I have time🏖️

The room is very clean, but there are some insects on the mountain who are having fun together 😂 (It is recommended that after eating and drinking in the room, the garbage should be thrown in the restaurant to avoid ants) From the parking lot to the counter to the room, you have to walk up slopes and stairs. Fortunately, the B&B provides luggage porter service👍 There is an observation deck to enjoy the mountain scenery, and you can also go to the nearby campsite to watch the stars, where you can relax and heal your body, mind and soul.

The location of the B&B has great mountain views, and there are many tables and chairs in the public space. It is suitable for family travel and will make people want to visit again. Especially the Fushan Ancient Trail where you can watch the sunrise is simple and easy to access.

Thank you to the boss for upgrading to a quadruple room. It is a B&B that is worth staying in when traveling. The mountain view is very beautiful. The bed is very comfortable and the room is very clean. I will definitely stay here again next time I travel to Alishan. It is really great.

The service is very good, the lady boss is very nice It was very considerate to have help carrying the luggage. I stayed in the middle floor of the building this time and it was very comfortable. The room environment is very clean

Nice scenery, clean and tidy

Overall it is good, but the hygiene is not good. I found a lot of black ants🐜🐜 in the bathroom. It makes my scalp numb. I hope this can be improved. The rest is good. The surrounding environment is fresh and the room is spacious. But it should be done next time I won’t choose this place anymore, but friends in need can still use it!

The bed is quite soft, the space is quite large, and the breakfast is not bad, because the accommodation price is not high compared with nearby B&Bs. Although there is a bathtub in the room, there is no way to take a bath. The location of the B&B is It's a bit remote, but it doesn't matter if you drive. The parking location is a short distance from the room. Although the owner of the B&B will help transport the luggage, we all take it ourselves. The biggest disadvantage is that the sound insulation is not very good, and other rooms have showers and showers. The sound of running water in the toilet is very loud. If you don't think it will be affected, it is actually no problem.

The Fushan Trail is closed, so unfortunately I couldn’t take a walk. The scenery of the B&B is beautiful. The location is also good, about 30 minutes' drive from Alishan Forest Recreation Area. Only because I have degenerative arthritis, the B&B is on the third floor. There is no elevator and I have to carry my luggage, which is really inconvenient. Ask staff for assistance, but there may not be enough staff to help. So if you have mobility issues, you should think twice about staying here.
