    Great place, very comfortable with good staff.

    Mostly great, minor niggles; hot/cold marked back to front on shower mixer. I'm not expereinced travelling in Asia so this may be the norm, but no bar in hotel or immediate vicinty.

    All staff were very pleaseant and helpful, large comfortable room and bed everything yoy could want. Breakfast buffet had extensive choice and was good too. Conveniently located for the exhibition centre with a free shuttle bus to and from operated by the hotel. Altrenativey a quiet riverside cycle/walkway runs past the front of the hotel and gets you most of the way to the exhibition centre and its adjacent metro station.

    Nothing at all.

    We stayed in the hotel family room, 2 king size bed. The room is spacious and very clean. The parking is very convenient. We rented a car, so the location of the hotel to drive out anywhere is convenient. They have laundry facility ,washing machines, and dryer in a super reasonable price. The staff is helpful. Overall, my family enjoyed our stay here a lot.

    Nothing!

    We absolutely loved the whole building and experience. We used the laundry services which were fast and convenient. We enjoyed the breakfast lounge. The room was spectacular, clean, and welcoming. The beds and pillows were wonderful and the service was impeccable! We also loved the gentleman who assisted us on the free bus service to the Nangang Station.

    Good value for money in a spacious and comfy hotel

    A huge problem lies with its shuttle bus service. We paid a visit to this hotel only 4 months ago (last December), then the hotel provided 19 times of virtually hourly shuttle bus service per day (0800-2200). This time, the daily service has been shrunk to 7 times daily (on average per 2.5 hours). Worst still, patrons are required to book in advance for both in-bound and out-bound service, which is extremely unreasonable or impractical for arriving patrons. This new arrangement only came into effect in April, (5 days before our arrival), and we had not been informed of this new arrangement beforehand (we made the booking in early January)! Consequently, we were very frustrated to wait for the hotel bus at the assigned spot that never arrived! Finally, I would like the hotel reverts its shuttle bus service to its original shape in time for the peak summer season!

    First, the room, including bathroom, is very spacious and clean. Second, the breakfast is varied and delicious. Third, it's good and relaxing to sit in its cafe to enjoy a cup of tea and a piece of cake as welcoming bonus.

    Nil. I like everything.

    Well I would like to make a detailed review of the place as I and my friends enjoyed our stay here a lot. We stayed for 4 nights just this February. Staff: Exceptional, speaks english without any issues. Location: as for the people who are saying that the location is not prime, this place is good on the other hand for people who would like to relax and enjoy the sceneries of taiwan. They provide shuttle bus anyway that goes to nangang exhibition centre and the nangang station, the timings were frequent too so its not too bad. It is also beside costco. Nangang station: As they have a shuttle that goes to nangang station, it was a very good experience as there are two shopping centre in the nangang station, city link and global that has everything that we need. Most shops are japanese and korean inspired which made it more exciting. There are plenty of good restaurant in this place too. Laundry service: Woah, we were shocked. Lol like literally they make your clothes new and pack it one by one as if you just bought it. Cleaning service: Was exceptional, lol they are the best, I feel like they have OCD that they have arranged our room perfectly. Requested a late check out and they approved very easily. Good staff Free Breakfast: has some different menu everyday, We like it, theres plenty of seasonal fruits and a taste of taiwan. Pastries are nice too. Freebies, theres a lot of voucher that werent able to use due that we were outside most of time. They gave us free cake and coffee, as well as voucher for hotpot. Spa bath/onsen: Very nice lol especially if you had a long day of walk in taiwan, the dry sauna and steam bath is nice. Room space: We booked the deluxe room. and geez can fit maybe 10 people we feel like kings. hahaha. Bathroom is spacious too. We booked 1102, 1105 and 1106. We will definitely visit this place again if we go to Taiwan. - Paul

    Between 0930 to 1130, which is the peak hour for check-out, the provision of shuttle service should be half-an- hour in frequency.

    Having been upgraded, we were given a suite which is huge in size and comfort. However, my observation is that even a normal standard room is huge comparatively. A good variety of quality food is provided for breakfast. Definitely a desire to return next time.

    Breakfast did not reach my expectation , but is correct . in fact the coffee is not really good ... the negative point is to find a restaurant around the hotel , which is not easy . found near transport taiwan storage place a small restaurent serving very good shrimps . absolutely not according to me a romantic hotel to bring somebody willing to enjoy sight seeing .

    good service , perfect for business trip if your business is around . Clean . Large rooms there is a bus service offered by hotel to reach main railway station . i used the service .

    The hotel is not so foreigner friendly, none of the staff talk good English. They tried, but all communication was difficult, especially when I needed something. Also, the information on their website is not complete, you can not find the time of checkout or the opening hours of the restaurants anywhere. Oh, and there is no way to eat there in the evening if you are alone. I went to their restaurant and was told at the entrance that it is not possible to eat there alone as it is a Chinese restaurant. I just wanted to have some dim sums but I was not permitted to eat those, the concierge let me choose from two parts of the menu and I had to get fried rice. I honestly don´t understand why two people can order five dishes but one person can not order two types of dim sums. That was really uncomfortable and it would have been preventable if it had been written anywhere on their website or mentioned by the staff. I recommend eating in the city before coming back to the hotel, especially if you travel alone.

    Even the "normal rooms" are very pretty and the hotel is overall very nice and clean. I got some welcome snacks in my room and the cleaning service was really nice, I got some bottled water every day. A bus stop is close and it is easy to get to Nangang exhibition station where you can get on the metro. The staff is trying to solve your problem and they are pleasant.

    My room was horribly filthy. The carpet was stained pitch black, god knows what was that. Blood or point, i don't even want to know. The room also had a disgusting cigarette smell. Location is also far from anything. I booked last minute and this was the only hotel available. Should have booked better places earlier.

    The rooms were big I guess. Also, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

    Being a Westerner, I would have preferred more western-style food at breakfast, but this personal preference. Also, I am aware that the hotel mostly serves an Asian clientele. I found the food at the restaurant a bit pricey.

    All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. For me, the location was good as it was near to my meeting locations, however, convenient stores were not near. The facilities were very clean and comfortable.
