I was extremely satisfied with my stay! Although it's an established hotel, the facilities were well-maintained, clean, and comfortable. The staff were professional and attentive, showcasing the hotel's long-standing reputation. I'm very happy to have had such a pleasant experience during my short holiday trip, and I would love to visit again.
My room was more than expected, The sound bar was a delightful touch. The bath and a half is much appreciated. Breakfast was wonderful. I am a westerner so I am used to being able to have a beer at any time on the weekends, I know this is a universal experience in Taiwan hotels, however, not being able to have a beer in the hotel bar at noon is a little inconvenient.
The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. They let us finish the check in process before the room was ready. Then they brought our luggage to the room. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The view was also great. The location was very convenient to the light rail station and development stores. The only thing is that the lobby has very limited seats for guests to sit and relax.

Spacious and well appointed room, courteous staff and excellently located to enjoy the sights and tastes of the city.
The hotel has a very local Asian flavor. Kids loved the Sanrio themed rooms. Breakfast buffet was good. Location is great. Bath-cap policy for pool excessive. Highly recommend

Beautiful harbor and city view, clean large rooms, exceptional friendly hotel staff. Greta selection of restaurants. Convenient to downtown area. Would definitely stay again in future.
Everything in this property is on point. Very accommodating staff who are friendly and always at hand. The location is perfect in the middle and walkable to the pier, LRT, public transportation. Do not forget to try Celebrity Cuisine on the 12th floor.
Lovely one night stay in themed Sanrio room (Gudetama). Staff came and explained room features and delivered welcome food and drinks. Separate photo room available on the Sanrio floor. Gift shop for souvenirs in the lobby which is connected to very nice department store.
Perfect location to do some oceanside running and head straight to an immaculate sauna. Room was spacious and clean. No notes, will def be back next time!

The hotel wasn't terrible. There is a huge language barrier as not a lot of their staff speak english which caused huge problems booking, with the restaurants in the hotel and a general understanding however i will say thst the staff that did speak english were amazing. I just found it strange they would use front of house staff that didnt understand english for crucial roles. The buffet wasnt worth the money at breakfast unfortunately however the 45 floor japanese bbq was great and worth the money for sure.

This was a golden experience. I came with our family and 91-year-old mother and they were thrilled. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. They would go out of their way to help you even when you didn’t ask. The accommodations were very close to our Ritz Carlton type stay in the rooms. The grand lobby is bright and beautiful, and the open lounge with coffee& alcohol bar with light dining in the French. European style is really inviting. We didn’t know there was a high-end mall located in the building between floors 2 to 8. In the basement levels there’s an amazing food court with authentic oriental cuisines for less formal dining. The views from our room on the 35th floor with breath taking with the harbor and ocean visible. We liked it so much, we’d go back just to stay there. The location is excellent, and you can walk from the hotel into the nearby community and experience the city and its culture. We loved it.
