2-Star Hotels in Nantou

The environment and location are both fantastic. The landlady is very welcoming and introduced nearby attractions and restaurants. Parking can be booked in advance for 300 yuan per parking session, which is quite convenient. The room decor is great. The only downside is the water pressure is insufficient, causing the hot water to fluctuate in temperature. If this could be resolved by contacting the plumber, it would be perfect.

Timing House is a very warm homestay hotel. The homeowners welcomed us with their beautiful smiles and also shared important and detailed information with us. Its location is great. There are two entrances connecting two streets, and the bus station is just around the corner. Our room was a cute and cool combination, we loved it. It’s very clean and comfortable. Simple cleaning daily is provided if you need; you just have to let the homeowners know. There’re also a public area where everyone can relax and use together. It includes places where you can make a cup of fresh coffee, and read and write. What’s more, they have a super mild and cute 14 year old dog whose name is “Timing”!

To catch the cherry blossom season at Wuling Farm, we chose to stay two nights in Cingjing. Although the B&B isn't right by the main road, it wasn't too out of the way for an evening scooter ride. Our room was a cozy wooden cabin, which felt really warm and inviting during winter. They even provided an electric blanket, making it a super comfortable and easy-to-sleep-in room. The room also had a small balcony, perfect for stargazing, enjoying the breeze, having a drink, or even a late-night instant noodle snack! 👍👍👍

I travelled solo to SML and happened to be in the path of Typhoon Kang Rey. I was glad to be staying here where the Ops Mgr Jiaqi hosted well. She offered me suggestions on what to do or where to go and check on me to make sure I'm well settled in. This place is also relatively new, nice and clean and very well set up. It is situated close to the old street where all food options are available. Also well situated to bus stop and walking trails. I will definitely come back again if I have the chance to.

1. Location: Great! Just next to Green green grassland entrance to Qing Jing farm. Public bus stop to other places within 5-8 mins walking distance. As there’s a slope prior to reaching the Guesthouse, it’s more convenient for guests with heavy or many luggages to drive or take car transfers. 2. Service: Excellent. Highly hospitable, friendly, helpful owners and staff. 3. Rooms: Large, clean, spacious rooms tastefully decorated and well maintained. Beautiful scenic mountain and sunset views. All rooms are located on 2nd floor accessible by staircase. 4. Food: Good balance of protein, carbohydrates and vegetables. Enjoyed the hotpot for dinner. Overall, a pleasant, cosy and comfortable stay. Thanks for the hospitality. Enjoyed this place for stargazing and astrophotography under dark skies, at the large, open common balcony on 2nd floor (Note: Balcony lamps switched off after a certain time in the evening).

The view from the balcony of the room is great, especially the sunrise. The breakfast is local style of porridge with a good spread of simple dishes to go with the porridge. Free flow of coffee and tea, and soya milk, and milk. Free flow of flour pancakes, fruits, etc. The location is good, just nice enough to be near the pick-up point for the 4.00am bus that we booked to go up to Hehuanshan of the stars and sunrise view. Very friendly and helpful couple who manage the checking in and out, and for any help we needed.

The Hostel itself was awesome. Well kept, well laid out and great amenities. Unfortunately, check-in was way more stressful than necessary. By default their check-in ends at 7:00, which in our case we ran into some issues related to public transport up to Sun Moon Lake, which is pretty normal. This led to a situation where we did not know if we would have a place to sleep if we went up the mountain on the last bus, or if we should simply give up. Eventually we connected with the team and we're able to organise a late self-check-in. If this was simply offered from the get-go we would have requested it, and this stay would have been 5/5. However, it was 4/5.

We had a great stay! The host was incredibly helpful and friendly, providing excellent recommendations for local attractions and even helping us secure discounted tickets. The room was clean and offered a beautiful view. A highlight was the breakfast—simple yet delicious. To top it off, the host kindly arranged for staff to drop us off at the Shuishe main bus station. Truly thoughtful service! 老板非常热情友好，不仅细心为我们介绍当地景点，还帮我们代订了优惠门票，非常方便。房间整洁干净，窗外的景观也很棒。最赞的是这里的早餐，简单却非常美味。离开时，老板还贴心地安排员工开车送我们到水社码头客运站，真的非常感谢

This cabin can accommodate 7 people, but there were five of us. The bed was quite firm, which I actually preferred, as I'm usually a very light sleeper and particular about beds, often not falling asleep until 4 AM. Breakfast was consistent: two slices of toast, a small salad with two slices of ham, and an egg. I really liked the wide selection of drinks available, including multigrain cereal, milk tea, black coffee, and juice. The owner is a young man. The dogs and cats are adorable, and you can pet them, but remember to wash your hands afterwards. The road leading up to the cabin was very winding and a bit challenging to navigate (especially on a scooter/bike). However, the cabin itself was very comfortable. The water pressure was excellent, and the water was very hot. We did encounter occasional bugs, which didn't bother me, but the kids were quite scared – though they were mostly just geckos, flies, and ants. The mountain views were beautiful. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any stars or the sunrise during our stay. All in all, it's a great place to stay, and the mountain air is incredibly fresh!

Considering that it was Holiday I am glad I was able to get a cheap bunk. Other hotels and hostels are much more expensive. That day I had a headache and the owner was kind to hand me a quilt while I was in the livingroom. The place really needs a detail clean. The curtains of the dorm definitely haven't been washed for a while and they have a foul smell. The laundry room is very dirty. The terrace has lots of dirt on the ground. The matress also has been washed recently. When I was there I always saw the bathroom dusty. It was either not cleaned or not cleaned frequently enough. The livingroom hasn't been cleaned either. On the last day I cleared the room before 11 and stayed for a little longer in the livingroom, but the owner rushed me out. The laundry was free. And you can hang them in the balcony. The owner is rarely in the premise. Two blocks away the is a market. The alley is quiet. The dorm area is very tight. The best thing is the price.
