Other than the great location which is right smack at Ximending, the hotel needs to improve on its service. The room reek of smoke (although it's a non smoking hotel) even after 3 rounds of spraying air freshener which I had to do it myself (after specifically requesting the air freshener from the cleaning lady). They did not clean our... More

stayed there for 2 nights (23-24 Mar 2012). The place is extremely convenient, for people who want to shop till they drop. The hotel is right smack in the middle of Ximending. Shops around the area open till late too. Cons: it can be quite noisy and bustling with activities at night, so try to request for higher level rooms,... More

Strategic location in Ximending, within 5 min walking distance to MRT station. We booked double deluxe room as we have a 2 yrs old toddler coming along this trip. The only thing miss is that there's no heater provide in the hotel during winter. If you underdress then it's a bit too bad. Apart from Waston / 7-11 convinience store... More

As countless of reviews has attested, the location of this hotel cannot be beaten. That is, if you want to be in the heart of the action at Xi Men Ding. Anyway, i'm not sure if it's low season, but they kindly upgraded my room, and it was huge. And the receptionists were all very friendly as well. The breakfast... More

Stayed here for two nights in their cheapest double room @ 1780TW$ per night. It's not the cheapest option around, but it seemed like a good option in that area and that price range. Staff at reception were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included, although it was more of a Chinese-style buffet with toast and jam the only 'western'... More

This is a simple and good property right smacked in XiMenDing. Very convenient to go out. The staff are friendly and this seems to be a very popular hotel. The counter staff are polite. But that is where all it ends. For NT2480 a night, the room was old and furnishing was considered poor grade. The toiletries were not replenished... More

The location of the hotel is fantastic: right at the heart of 西门丁 and barely 5 minutes walk from the 西门 metro station (exit 6), which is already in a prime location. There are food carts all around the area and the mini food street is just down the left lane when you exit the hotel. There is a 鼎茶... More

Hotel's location is very good, located at central part of Ximending, 3 mins walk from Ximen MRT station. From Ximen Station, you can go anyway in Taipei. Rooms were newly renovated and were well clean daily. The hotel staff service is very good, they will stand up to greet people with a smile as they entered the hotel lobby. Do... More

Stayed here for 4 nights in a deluxe double ... The room was spacious for my friend and I to spread our suitcases out on the floor, something which the standard rooms seem to lack! Bed was comfy, however pillows could be fluffier and not so flat. The room was always kept clean, towels were changed, carpets didn't have any... More
