Hotels in West District, Taichung

Overall, my stay was quite pleasant. The hotel's location is really convenient, with easy access to transportation and plenty of amenities nearby. The staff were friendly, and both check-in and check-out were smooth. The room was clean and tidy, and all the essential facilities were well-maintained. The only minor downside was the limited food selection; breakfast wasn't very varied, though the taste was acceptable. Generally, aside from the slightly lacking dining options, the service quality, environment, and location were all consistently good. It was a rather enjoyable experience.

This was once the best hotel in Taichung that has seen better days. The maintenance of the facilities are good. The real lobby is located on the 12th floor.

Location: The hotel entrance is on Meicun Road, but the taxi driver, using the hotel's address, parked at the intersection of Xiangshangbei Road and Meicun Road. We waited for over three minutes before realizing it! Eating: Across from the hotel, on Xiangshangbei Road, there's a small night market on Zhongmei Street, but it felt run-down and chaotic. After browsing, I didn't find anything particularly delicious. I checked reviews and found Taizu Lamb and Fish Restaurant, but it was too salty and not as good as what I've had in Taipei! Xiangshang Douhua (tofu pudding) wasn't as good as those in Meicun or Qingguang. There's also a Michelin-starred restaurant nearby serving pork knuckle, but after queuing and eating there, I felt the taste was overrated, and I was so sweaty that I had no desire to go back! The hotel agreed to let the delivery guy bring it upstairs, saving me the trouble of picking it up myself! Parking: I thought there was parking on Dianping (a Chinese review platform), but when I arrived, the front desk informed me that they no longer provide parking. Even when there were spaces available, it was very difficult to find one in advance, so those driving should be aware of this to avoid the hassle of dragging luggage. Don't be misled by Dianping! Bed: The bed was of medium firmness, but the pillows were too soft and flat for us to sleep well. We wanted to add more pillows to elevate the bed, but we were told there would be an extra charge. In the end, we had to use a large bath towel folded several times to prop it up! Room Amenities: The mini-fridge had an icebox, which was good for chilling leftover popsicles from the kids. The toilet had a smart toilet seat, thankfully a bit bigger than the ones at Hongqiao Airport that are practically miniature! Soundproofing: The shower water pressure was strong, but the resonance noise was also loud. Avoid showering too late as it will disturb others! Cleanliness: I don't know if it's the sewer or the air conditioning, but sometimes the room smelled bad. Although there was a window, it couldn't be opened, so there was no ventilation! Service: The male staff member on the night shift was impatient with our overseas call to confirm our booking and even argued with us. We wanted to cancel, but it was too late! The lobby didn't even have a place for guests to sit and wait for taxis, which felt very basic compared to other hotels! Disposable slippers weren't provided; you had to bring your own or buy them at the counter! Wi-Fi: Worried about slow internet speeds in this older hotel, I rented a Wi-Fi hotspot beforehand. The TVs here probably don't support automatic screen mirroring, so you'll need to bring your own. Room Size: Probably proportional to the price. These business hotels tend to be smaller, older, and more expensive than in mainland China, but they have luggage racks, so you don't have to put your suitcase on the floor. Value for Money: Compared to mainland budget chain hotels like Home Inn and Hanting, prices in Taiwan are higher, and fluctuations can be more than double! The decor and facilities might also be less modern, especially in older hotels like this. However, compared to the Yongfeng Inn I stayed at the previous night, this one is closer to the Qinmei shopping district, so convenience is the main reason for choosing this option!

The staff are very nice and helpful. Breakfast tastes good and healthy and the price is reasonable. If you take the taxi to Taichung International Airport, it only costs TWD 625.

It's an older hotel, but it still maintains a grand and impressive feel. While the interior facilities are a bit dated, the air conditioning works comfortably, and the hygiene is perfectly fine. The toilets are even modern, with bidet functions, which is a nice touch. The only downside is the government's eco-friendly policy preventing hotels from providing amenities, but that's a government issue, not the hotel's fault. The breakfast is decent – not luxurious, but it matches the price for a one-night stay and you can certainly eat your fill. I'd consider staying here again if the opportunity arises.

The room wasn't huge, but it was very quiet, tucked away in an alley. Parking wasn't an issue though; there was mobile parking right at the entrance, and the hotel also provided information on nearby paid parking lots. I had a great night's sleep; the bed was really comfortable and the pillows were excellent. The air conditioning was perfectly cold. We also received a welcome drink voucher that we could use at the front desk for drinks and snacks. After checking out, we realized we'd left our power bank and charging cable behind. To our surprise, the hotel proactively called us to ask if we wanted them to hold onto it. Since we don't live in Taichung, they even helped us ship it home via Black Cat Express, and we received it the very next morning, carefully wrapped in bubble wrap for protection. This is truly a thoughtful and wonderful hotel! Definitely my top choice for staying in Taichung.

Room was really large and confortable for the price paid, definitely better than what we expected. The hotel is not really located nearby tourists spot but that's not a problem, you can easily take the bus or youbike to go anywhere. Overall, we had a nice stay and everything was very convenient.

The hotel room was very spacious, incredibly clean, and well-lit, giving a great overall impression. Although the bathroom didn't have a bathtub, the shower head could be set to a mist spray, which was very comfortable, and the water temperature was stable. Plus, the toilet was Japanese-style. The TV could play YouTube and Netflix, which was a big plus! The Wi-Fi was also stable, and there was a complimentary minibar. The only downside was that the hotel was a bit far from public transport, which might be inconvenient if you don't have a car.

Every staff member was very friendly. The vegan breakfast didn't have many options, but it was enough to fill me up 🩷. The fully automatic toilet was a nightmare. The sensor seemed broken, as the lid would close by itself while I was sitting on it! I was instantly embraced by the toilet lid from behind, not just once, but twice! I couldn't push the lid back, and there was no time to escape. It was absolutely disgusting 😭😭😭

The photos and the place where I live are exactly the same! Matches the picture and the environment is clean and comfortable It’s very convenient to check in by yourself~ Information will be sent back to you before your stay. Remember to confirm Trip
