City Getaway: Renaissance Taipei Shihlin Hotel

Have you ever thought about taking a short break from your busy daily life to recharge? The Renaissance Taipei Shihlin Hotel, easily accessible by MRT, might be one of your options. This time, I was fortunate to book a Deluxe King Room (Mountain View) at the Renaissance Taipei Shihlin Hotel for a Friday night, including breakfast for two, at a very favorable price on trip.com. On the day of check-in, I opened the door to find a floor-to-ceiling window with a vast green mountain view. Lying on the sofa by the window and looking at the greenery instantly relaxed my body and mind. The room was clean and odor-free, and there was a bathtub for a soak. After a good night's sleep, we were greeted with a rich buffet breakfast with a variety of delicacies. The breakfast time is from 7 to 10 AM, giving guests a full three hours to enjoy their meal leisurely. After breakfast, we went to the rooftop infinity pool to take a walk and photos, overlooking Yangmingshan. It's hard to imagine such an urban oasis in Taipei City! During our stay, all the staff we encountered at the front desk, housekeeping, and restaurant were very friendly and courteous, allowing vacationers to completely forget the trivial worries of busy life and fully enjoy this short yet fulfilling city getaway. If you find it hard to take leave for an overseas trip or are too lazy to plan an itinerary, you don't need to arrive at the airport 2-3 hours in advance or arrange your schedule beforehand. Just take the MRT to Shihlin Station after work on Friday, and from Exit 2, it's a 5-minute walk to the hotel. Your city getaway starts now!
