Taichung Hotels with Bars

I wrote in my initial booking that this was an Anniversary trip, I was quite surprised that the hotel did not do nor acknowledge such things and that quite bothered me. First impressions do lasts and I also had an incident in their restaurant that serves buffet, where there was a insect (almost cockroach like) in the soup which was honestly very shocking for a 5 star restaurant but the recovery of how they handled was not great and no follow up was done. Overall, I wasn’t as happy staying here as I thought I would. But I won’t definitely be coming back.

This hotel is close to Feng Chia Night Market and offers convenient parking. The rooms are new, clean, and modernly designed, with a great wet/dry separation in the bathroom. The breakfast selection is extensive, and they even offer a late-night snack service, which is a nice touch.

The location of this hotel is excellent, and the staff were consistently friendly, polite, and genuinely tried to help whenever we needed anything. Unfortunately, the hotel itself has some significant issues. Our room had a strong mould smell that was impossible to ignore. This isn’t something that can be solved with air freshener or a quick spray by housekeeping—it points to a deeper moisture problem that requires a proper investment in repairs. Until that is addressed, it seriously affects the comfort of the stay. The food was also disappointing and well below what we expected. We also tried to book a massage during our stay, but every time we went down, there was no one there. The counter staff seemed unsure of what was happening, which made the experience feel disorganized. I want to emphasize that the staff did their best and were always courteous. The problems seem to be with the property and its management rather than the employees. With its excellent location, this hotel has a lot of potential, but it needs to address the mould issue properly and improve some of its facilities and services.

The environment is great and very clean, especially the lobby with board games and old-school arcade games. My friends and I had a lot of fun playing there. As for the room, although a bit small, it was very clean, and the ability to connect the TV to YouTube and Netflix was the most important feature.

A great hotel with high class facilities. Location is convinience to bus stops and 7Eleven. The breakfast buffet is good and the staff is very professional. A very good hotel in Taichung.

First time staying here and the overall experience was great. The lobby is quite beautiful, and besides the comfortable environment, the pool on the 21st floor is amazing! I'd definitely want to stay at this hotel again next time I'm in Taichung.

SOF hotel has a very unassuming first impression. From its neighborhood, one cannot anticipate the modern and purposefully curated pieces in it. I believe the building was restored and re-purposed. What I love most is its staff, they are so homey and kind, always ready to assist. Special thanks to the young ladies and gentleman who helped us make phone calls to book transportation, made enquires about the schedules of our next travel segments and offered us bandaid. They never fail to offer us a drink every time they see us. The location requires some walking, like to Taichung Train station. If walking with luggages, it can be tiring. Without load, it is rather doable journey and a good exercise. The space within the room was small yet sufficient, with minimalist design in its furnitures and items provided - like sofa, kettle, water dispenser at every level. In my opinion they are all curated with intent and sustainability in mind. Looking at the price point to space avail to guests, I think they offered a very reasonabl pricing. I appreciated that there is no excess items or even spaces that are wasted. I’m paying for exactly what I needed from these accommodation. Thank you once again to the lovely staff! I appreciate Taichung so much more with your help. I hope to be back again.

It wasn't my first time at this hostel. I think it's a good one and the price is cheap. There's a market place close by and a bus stop. Beds are comfy. Just be aware that there are little spaces that bring either other people's light or the window's light. If you're sensitive to that, bring a eyemask. Otherwise, enjoy your stay.

Great location for traveling! Rooms are spacious. Only recommendation - please respond to messages sent through the chat. I asked about parking a the AI responder responded that there was no parking available. However, there is a parking lot in front of the hotel, although it is private parking the hotel still provides a ticket for free parking. Since I didn’t get a proper response, I had to make other arrangements for parking and only saw the parking when we travelled there by MRT.

We checked in at this hotel on the evening of December 21, 2025. Immediately after we got into the assigned room, we smelled a very strong odor of chemical spray. My wife couldn’t bear this and started to have allergic reaction. Immediately we notified the front desk. They offered to switch to another room. Nevertheless , when we got to the other room, it had the same chemical odor. Therefore we decided to leave this hotel and found another hotel to stay for that night. We had requested a refund and the front desk at the Comin Place said that they would contact Trip.com to refund us the fee. However, till now we haven’t received the refund from Trip.com.
