Taichung Hotels with Breakfast

This time I brought my wife to Taichung for her birthday, and we stayed at the Norway Forest Cultural Center for the first night. We arrived early to drop off our luggage and immediately experienced the friendly and polite service, which made me feel happy and warm. Although there was a minor issue with the air conditioning in our room when we checked in that evening, the front desk manager came up and helped us switch to a larger and more comfortable room. Their service attitude was also super nice. It's no wonder this hotel has reviews above 9 – it's absolutely deserved. If I have the chance to come again, it will definitely be my first choice! 🥰

Upon check-in, when asked the reason for our stay, I casually mentioned we were celebrating our 100th day together. They genuinely took note and arranged related services. The sense of privacy and exclusive hospitality was exceptional, truly living up to the reputation of Japan's top Hoshino Resorts group. I particularly loved the design of the entire garden and the relaxation pavilions by the pool, as well as the hot springs. Whether it was the expansive window views from the room, the scenery from the private onsen, the women's public bath, or the dining area, every single spot, with its flowers, plants, and water birds, was meticulously designed. Both dinner and breakfast were also thoughtfully prepared and presented using local ingredients. Our 2-day, 1-night stay left us feeling incredibly touched and joyful, both physically and mentally. It felt like we were taken care of in every possible way. Every moment was filled with deep appreciation. I highly recommend staying here.

Everything is great. Ideal place if you drive, since it's not that convenient. The rooms are spacious and beautiful, and I love the bathrooms!

The soundproofing in the room was excellent, and the air conditioning was quiet. The water pressure was strong, and the bath amenities smelled lovely. The breakfast was decent, pretty much the same every day, but it was great to have natto. The pool was absolutely fantastic, very clean, and we spent every day in it. The pool facilities were also great. Highly recommend it. The location is also good; bus 302 goes directly from the airport to the hotel. There's a shopping mall within a 5-minute walk, as well as convenience stores and many local eateries with delicious food.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location was excellent, with plenty of great dining options nearby. The hotel's also has a unique wall display featuring cards with local recommendations, which was a fun and helpful way to discover places to explore and eat around the area. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay, always ready to assist when needed. One challenge we encountered was that the double room we originally booked felt quite small for our needs. Since a family suite was not available at the start of our stay, we upgraded midway through when one became available. The family suite was spacious, comfortable, and significantly enhanced our experience. If you're traveling with more than one person or prefer extra room, the family suite is definitely worth considering. The hotel also does not provide disposable amenities, in line with Taiwan's sustainability initiatives, so guests should remember to bring their own toiletries. One thing to note is that breakfast is not served in the hotel building itself. The breakfast venue is located about two streets away, roughly a five-minute walk from the hotel. While this wasn't a major inconvenience, it may be something to keep in mind, especially during bad weather or for guests who prefer having breakfast on-site. Despite the initial room size issue and the off-site breakfast arrangement, we enjoyed our stay overall thanks to the convenient location, friendly service, and excellent family suite. We would consider staying here again.

The room was spacious, with a separate wet and dry bathroom and a refrigerator. Each floor had its own water dispenser, and the sixth floor offered a free kids' play area, a gym, and a sparkling water machine. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The hotel also provided a free contracted parking lot, and there's a shopping street outside the hotel for convenient resupply.

The hotel offers good value for money, but the breakfast selection was just so-so. On our second day, we visited the Second Market, recommended by locals, which was only about a 5-minute walk away. You *must* try the Shan He Braised Pork Rice, beef pan-fried buns, and Lao Lai Black Tea! We had a great time walking around and eating, and our brunch was easily sorted. As for the room, the bed is right in front of you as soon as you open the door. However, the toilet and shower areas are separated (wet and dry), and there's enough space to open a large suitcase. P.S. There are no convenience stores right near the hotel; you'll have to walk a bit to find one.

Our family always makes it a habit to find a hotel near Fengjia Night Market when we visit, and we've been doing it for years. This was our first time staying at this particular hotel, and we booked a quad room. The room was incredibly spacious, and parking was convenient. Since we checked in on a Saturday, we could have reserved the shuttle bus to Fengjia for 30 NTD per person. However, we decided to challenge ourselves to walk there and back. It was a bit of a trek, about 10-15 minutes one way, which was a little far but not unbearable. The breakfast was a buffet, and I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit and vegetable juice machine – that was super fun! Overall, I'd definitely consider staying here again. The only downside was... by the time we wanted a late-night snack, we were already too full from the night market food, so we just went downstairs for a bubble tea and headed back to the room!

I stayed in the dorm room this time. You first need to use the kiosk in the lobby for self check-in, and you'll receive the passcode for your bed and the main door. Then you take the elevator up to your floor and enter the passcodes for both the main door and your room door (a bit puzzled that the passcode for the main door and the room door are the same, which might raise some security concerns~). Overall, it was a good experience. It comes with a laundry room, and the shared kitchen offers DIY toast for breakfast along with some complimentary small cookies!

I recently spent two nights at The Metro Hotel (豪爵大飯店台中館) in Taichung, and overall, it was a very practical, comfortable, and well-situated experience. Located right on Wuquan Road in the West District, this 3.5-star property strikes an excellent balance between affordability and convenience. If you are looking for a reliable base to explore the city, here is a detailed breakdown of my stay.  The room was spacious, exceptionally clean, and featured a nice view of the surrounding city. The bed was on the firmer side but very supportive, providing a great night's sleep after long days of walking. A major highlight for me was the climate control. I absolutely need a cool sleeping environment and always set the thermostat to 21°C; thankfully, the room’s air conditioning was powerful and maintained that crisp, chilly temperature perfectly throughout both nights.  There are two minor caveats to the room: • Electrical Outlets: There are very few power outlets available. If you have multiple devices to charge (phone, laptop, power banks), I highly recommend bringing a small travel extension cord.  • Soundproofing: While the room itself was peaceful, the door soundproofing is a bit lacking. You can occasionally hear other guests in the hallway or neighboring doors closing.  The hotel provides all the essential basics without overcomplicating things. The bathroom was roomy with great water pressure and came stocked with standard toiletries. A huge plus for travelers is the self-service laundry room located on the 5th floor. The front desk staff were consistently friendly, welcoming, and helpful with luggage storage. It is worth noting that they strictly enforce their 4:00 PM check-in time—you generally cannot get into your room a minute earlier—but they do offer a generous 12:00 PM check-out, allowing for a relaxed morning.
