Hotels in Ximending Commercial Area, Taipei

The hotel itself is great, with a super convenient location and excellent cleanliness. However, we couldn't get a suitable room on a higher floor. Guest rooms only start from the 8th floor, so our lower-floor room had a rather uninspiring view, mostly just rooftops of neighboring buildings. The room wasn't huge, but the layout was very well-designed; having dual sinks was incredibly convenient for multiple guests. The hotel's recreational facilities – gym, kids' playroom, and pool – all seemed unstaffed, relying entirely on guests' discretion. The corridors were rather dimly lit, discouraging any lingering. With a large number of rooms and guests, elevator wait times were long, and the lifts often felt quite crowded. Honestly, these minor issues are probably acceptable for someone just staying for a night or two on a regular trip. There were plenty of dining options nearby, so we didn't get a chance to try the hotel's own restaurants. A big plus was the toiletries; they felt eco-friendly and had a very stylish design.

Location wise, superb! Ximen MRT exit 4 and walked 2-3 minutes, lovely. So much to eat and walk around. Hotel self check in was confusing and not friendly enough. Staffs a bit overwhelmed at weekend but very helpful weekday checkout and help with arranging ride to the airport. Lobby and restaurants were fantastic, room a bit tired. Carpet rather dirty and worn. Shower cubicle door seal worn, water leaked after shower. Bed too springy not enough support. Pillow a bit flat, I asked for a 2nd to improve sleep quality. Overall very good location in Taipei.

Perfect location. Room is comfortable enough for a short stay in Taipei. It is near convenience stores, cafes, restaurants and about 2 to 3 minutes away from Ximending. It offers buffet breakfast too which offer a wide variety of food options (I like that they offer hot pot during breakfast) my only recommendation is maybe they should give their staff additional training in customer service as they do not greet you when go in or outside of the hotel.

The hotel had a good overall design and located at XiMenDing. Easily accessible through the Metro line.I especially love the room design where the toilet is separated away from the shower. Also prefer the room cleaning service to be in the afternoon on the next day so that we do not need to wake up early and rush out. The receptionists also will greet you warmly whenever you are coming back or going out of the hotel. The only inconvenience was probably the laundry service is not free and the dryer was not that hot despite the high temperature being chosen. The clothes were in the dryer for 30mins but there were still some parts of it being wet. Nonetheless, would still choose this hotel.

Great location. Easily assessable from Taipei Main Station, about 5 min by car (if there’s no traffic jam). Walking distance to nearby night market & shopping area. Lots of eateries nearby. Not forgetting the convenience of a 7-11 beside the hotel entrance. Good breakfast selection. Only issue is that the breakfast seating area is rather limited as it’s also the lounge area for the check-in & check-out. They also prepare a birthday card & goodies for my boys who were celebrating their birthdays. Very thoughtful. Highly recommend to stay here.

Found the hotel location to be practical – 7/8 mins from Taipei main station and an even shorter walk from NTU hospital station. The taiwan museum is righf next door so great if you’re into that. You check in at L3 and the staff were pleasant and friendly. There’s also coffee on that level. Laundry facilities are on L10 & L12. The room was alright, not a lot of space for 2 pax with 2 luggages but a comfortable space nonetheless. But I didn’t like the washroom design. The doors are not frosted enough, making it awkward for non-couples. Also, the door would not close if there’s a floor mat outside, which I found extremely annoying since one would need to dry their feet before coming out…?

The location is not exactly central Ximending if you're looking for that BUT it is a 10min walk to Ximending if you're a slow stroller like me and I think the location is great. It's not noisy or crowded and I like how when you are walking towards Ximending, you will pass by the famous Milk Donut shop. A good morning perk up or a night snack when you leave or head back to the hotel. They're also located opposite the river where you can do morning/evening runs which my brother did. Maybe just go during high tied instead of low tied, mainly due to the smell of the river during low tied. Room size? Amazing. I was pleasantly surprise at the size of the twin bedroom. It had more than ample space to open two luggages with alot more space to dance around or chill or just put your shopping bags. A really good space.Even the doorway is big with a huge mirror. I love that the room had a window that is big enough to see the world outside. My room had a view of the river. Really beautiful during sunsets. I get very claustrophobic and alot of the hotels in Ximen have no windows so this is extremely pleasant. Bed was comfortable. There is a TV but do not expect netflix or anything like that. It's really just showing local channels. Toilet looks little old and dated BUT it's clean. It's spacious. The toilet bowl comes with a bidet (MAJOR PLUS). There is a shower bathtub situation and the water is nice and warm when I want it to be while showering so I wasn't very bothered by how it looked. Oh! Towels are amazing! The whole place, honestly, is old vibes but it's one of the best stays I've had in Taipei since the first time I started coming 6 years ago. Also very conviniently located if you take Uber often, I feel. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel. It was a pleasant surprise. A pleasant stay. Will definitely come back!

The hotel is located in a very convenient location right in the heart of the ximending shopping district. The nearest mrt is located just outside the hotel entrance, and the station is one stop away from Taipei main station. There is a 24hr 7/11 located beside the hotel. Although, there is currently ongoing construction works and can be a little noisy. The hotel provides useful amenities such as ear plugs, q-tips, mouthwash etc for guests' comfort. The hotel even provided a memory foam pillow! Note: no toothbrush and toothpaste provided for hotels in TW as part of the governments eco-friendly efforts. The hotel staff were super friendly and always willing to accede to guests' requests. The room was huge (esp the bath) and super clean. We really enjoyed our stay here!

A big thank you to the helpful Ctrip agent who went out of her way to book me the same room as my previous stay. That last visit was particularly special as we celebrated my son's acceptance into his master's program and a post-pandemic birthday here. This time, the hotel's facilities and service were as consistently excellent as before. Despite the slightly hazy view due to unfavorable weather, this is the only place that offers such a superb vantage point, with iconic Taipei landmarks like Xiaonanmen, the Presidential Office Building, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, and Taipei 101 all visible. It was a truly enjoyable trip to Taipei, and we look forward to returning next year.

Very convinent location close of Ximen station. Just 7-8min walk with shelter mostly. Crowded and popular neighboring thus even late at night still lots of people around. Hotel lobby is 6/F. Get card to tap the senor to get lift to 5/F, which the lift lobby is filled with salon smell of perming and conditioner chemicals. The room is fine. No smell. Probably because it's furthest away from the lobby. It's clean. Towels and water pressure and temp are OK though the mirror is slightly damaged. Overall very good if you plan go out all the time and back just for sleep. The walls are super thin though. I heard the people next door shout / laugh / scream (there are kids next door) in late evening(like 11pm). I can't hear any noise outside though. A down side of the room is the one step up to the toilet and another step up to the bed which can be inconvenient for some people. To those with long hair: there is NO conditioner for hair provided. Appreciate if Trip or the hotel can update this. Otherwise helpful staff. I heard the breakfast that they help book is famous. I didn't try though.
