Taitung Hostels

Holiday trip booked 1200 for two people. On the same day, only we and another group of guests can almost be considered a private building. The room is quiet, comfortable and clean. There is a washing machine to wash clothes and dry clothes for free. There is also an observation deck on the top floor to see the scenery. I really think this price is very top.

Amazing place, clean, comfortable, and convenient. I would stay there again, it has a pretty cafe in the ground floor, the. In the B1 Floor it has a nice, spacious, clean kitchen with refrigerators, oven, microwave, stove, everything to cook there and space to eat as well. Well-located near a Night Market, and other places to visit

The place is pretty, and the single-bedroom is simple, neat and clean. The staffs are friendly and helpful too. Location is within walking of eateries and night market. ~10-15 mins drive to Fugang Harbour if you take a cab. If you follow google map and take bus 202 from Taitung train station, have to walk ~8mins to arrive, but the walk is straightforward as long as you follow the map. Conclusion, Norden Ruder is worth the stay.

I had a wonderful stay: perfect location in the city center, very nice and comfortable room, kind staff. They provided a voucher to have breakfast at the coffeeshop in front, or even bought breakfast for us. Would definitely stay here again!

I highly recommend this hotel for all travellers, especially foreigners - note I was a self-drive so the location wasn't an issue. From the moment I arrived I was greeted by a lovely young lady who came outside to show me my car space. Her equally-lovely colleague then assisted in checking me in and making me feel very welcome. I was given a map of the local area and some suggested eating spots. They also helped in charging my phone. The girls' spoke enough English to help me, and the breakfast at a nearby cafe was great. The room was exactly what I needed - a very clean room, comfortable bed, and nice warm shower. I am going to stay again next time I visit beautiful Taiwan.

The location is right next to the transit station, offering many route options whether you're coming from the train station or heading to the suburbs, though bus frequencies are low. There's also a paid parking lot across the street, which is convenient if you're driving. Nearby, you'll find department stores, a cinema, a night market, and a regular market, making it very lively with excellent amenities. The hotel uses a fully self-check-in system with no staff visible on site. There's only one check-in machine, placed a bit out of the way, which I didn't notice immediately upon arrival. After completing the process, you receive a password to open the main door. There's no elevator, and the male dorm room is on the 4th floor. The only common facility is a water dispenser. The toilet is located inside the room and combined with the shower. If all beds are occupied, you might have to wait to use the bathroom. The room size is decent, and the bed is quite comfortable. Overall, it's a reasonably comfortable stay, especially for a solo traveler for one or two nights, and the price is affordable. However, if you have concerns about shared bathroom facilities, I'd advise against visiting during peak season!

The room was spacious and clean. If you forgot your toothbrush, you could ask for one at the front desk. There was also a children's playroom, breakfast, welcome snacks, and late-night snacks. It was a great value! Even if you drive, there's no shortage of parking. The restaurant also serves roast duck.

Not far from the hotel is Tiehua Village, where there are stalls and performances at night, which is fun and lively! There are Xiuli and many restaurants nearby, which makes shopping and eating convenient. The room is not big, just right for one night.

Its proximity to Taitung Bus Station makes it incredibly convenient for exploring the night market on Thursday evenings. Being particularly close to Seashore Park, it's perfect for catching both sunrise and sunset. The mattress was just right – neither too soft nor too hard – ensuring a wonderful night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful; their excellent service truly deserves high praise.

I had booked a room in the “hostel” section, but it’s actually more of a hotel pretending to also be a hostel. The cleanliness in the room left much to be desired (from what i could see the window sill is clearly never cleaned, hair on the clean sheets, etc.). On top of that, the lockers are fake in the sense that they don’t lock, so they’re basically just cupboards that anyone can open. As for the bathroom, some of the shower doors are broken and were literally left abandoned inside the shower. What was my surprise to see that there were cockroaches ?? The next day, I came back to the room to take a shower and there was no electricity in the bathroom anymore. I asked for compensation because the price I paid was completely disproportionate to the state of the facilities. The receptionist was friendly and offered to move me to a private room (in the hotel section), but the problems continued: when I opened the bathroom door, I once again found cockroaches. Moreover, the humidity doesn’t seem to evacuate properly, and there’s a nauseating smell inside. The lock on the door leading from the room to the hallway doesn’t work. The finishing of the construction work is terrible, nothing is right. In short, my advice is : do not come to this hotel.
