2-Star Hotels in Hualien

We are very happy with our stay in this inn. Service was tip top. The lady and guy at the reception were very helpful and polite. Knowing that we are muslims and they are so helpful and kind to prepare a meal that has no meat for us. The lady staff even made a special vegetarian order for us to have our breakfast on the go because we needed to leave the inn early for our activity. The guy made an effort to help us read the ingredient list on the snacks they offered with us asking him to. We are really thankful for this gesture. It means alot to us especially traveling to a country where halal food is not easily found. Breakfast was fantastic. We love the salmon toast so much! Room was clean and well maintained. We do want to apologise on our son's behalf for the screams and cry during our stay. He was having a meltdown. Sorry to both the staff having to handle other guest who may have complained to you for the noise. Will we be back? Most definitely.

This is an amazing place to stay for all traveler types. You can travel here solo or with family/friends. Upon arrival, I was checked into my room. Jimmy (the owner) gave a warm welcome along with a gift. The room was comfortable and clean. It even had a balcony where you can sit and overlook the whole city. Jimmy and his staff are very kind. They provided excellent service, and the breakfast was tasty and nutritious. The city doesn’t have the best transportation, but Jimmy was kind enough to drive me into the city and pick me up whenever I was finished. When I checked out, I was given a box of tea—a wonderful gift for the upcoming Chinese New Year. All in all, I would rate this place a 12/10. It’s not only a place to stay, but it made me feel right at home. The plus side is the cute dog, Ao Hua. She is friendly and playful.

Lovely hotel right near the dongdamen night market, great location and easily accessed by public transport. There's a fantastic brunch place just round the corner. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and they have free laundry facilities. Rooms are comfortable and clean, and they have a rooftop terrace with views of the mountains and the sea. Free shuttle service to the station so long as you contact the staff in advance. Bikes for hire on location. Added bonuses: they have an adorable dog, welcoming snacks and drinks, a water fountain, and a free coffee machine. There were families with small kids who seemed very happy, and us childless grown-ups were very content with the level of sound insulation 😂 Things to be aware of: only one staff member speaks English (but all are happy to communicate and patient with Mandarin learners). Make sure you have cash on arrival for a deposit for towels - it'll be returned at check out.

My husband and I had the most incredible stay at Bohemia. It's next to a river with cows and within walking distance to the ocean. They let you use their electric bikes which allows you to explore the city of Hualien like a local (and without the need of an international license since it's not a scooter). The breakfasts were delicious and they accommodated my food restrictions, preparing traditional ********* breakfasts that were gluten and dairy free. The room was luxurious with a balcony with the amazing view of the river and sounds of nature. They also have a great rooftop that you can access and a new massage chair in the lobby. The staff were friendly and made sure that we had an enjoyable stay. We could not recommend this place more and would love to go back!

Family of 5: Room was big and spacious with some fun elements, so kids enjoyed the house shaped bunk bed and the space to play. Adults enjoyed that the 24hr laundry was right next door so no need to walk further to wash clothes. Hot water or cold water available on 1st floor dispenser, with flasks you can fill to bring up to the room. Bicycles available for use if you want to cycle around. Night Market near by: only a 5-6 mins walk away. Hotel is right on a main road junction and our room was same direction so if you’re a light sleeper, ask for a room further in and away from main room perhaps. Noise from vehicles can be heard when morning comes. Nonetheless, Mr Wu, the owner’s hospitality was great. Appreciate his kindness and warmth.

It was easy check-in. If you stay in the tent room, it's good for short stays (1-2nights), especially for cyclists, you can bring your bicycle indoors. However though, the sockets are not by the tent, so you can't charge your phone by the bed. Also, the floor makes loud noises in the inner part of the room. So, it can get a little annoying, be sure to bring your eye masks and ear plugs. The sink in the toilet is really really tiny, not very easy or nice to use even for a petite person like me. But for the price, I guess it was alright. There are only two shared shower rooms (inc. toilet), shampoo and shower gel are provided. I think the place is pretty clean overall, and there's curtains in the tent, so it offers pretty good privacy.

Very close to Ocean Park. Good service attitude, late arrivals also provide self-check-in, breakfast is delicious, comfortable environment ～～ The sky is full of stars at night, and the sea view is seen during the day.

Nature experience, get up in the morning to eat breakfast, because the rain stopped, smelled a very comfortable country taste, the room 2 people live very wide, the underground is the hall, the bed upstairs, there is a wooden ladder up and down, like nature is a good choice!

Check-in convenience: Self check-in was quite convenient; communication via WeChat/Line was possible. The night market is a 10-minute walk away. Safety: Good location, very safe. Facilities: As pictured, a 'prison-style' experience, which I definitely felt. Hygiene: Hygiene was acceptable. Environment: The environment was unique, worth experiencing.

It's clean, it's close to the train station, where you can rent a scooter to explore Taroko National Park, also have a gas station next door to refill your scooter and you are next to the main road to go to the National Park. There is enough stuff to cook yourself something. Communication with the landlord on self check-in went well and I could check-in earlier because my bed was free, actually I was the only guest in the dorm on my first of two nights. It was calm and the entire hostel & bathroom was very clean. I liked, that you can buy razors, one-way towels, toothbrush kit for a small fee, even if I didn't need it. The only downside, and that's why I gave it -3 stars in amenity was, that the mattress was so hard, it felt like sleeping on the floor. The room had a bit of strange moisture smell, but I could get used to it quickly. If there would be a thicker, less hard mattress, that place would get total points. On the back door / balcony you have a nice view of the mountains. (The picture attached is taken from the road, but if you crop the lower half, it's what you see)
