"Staff very attentive and helpful. That goes for the staff at the front desk, the porters and doormen/women, the spa staff, housecleaning, and the restaurant staff in the hotel. We interacted with all of them - asking questions and getting help beyond the normal scope of their job duties.
Breakfast buffet was plentiful. We also ate supper on a Saturday night at the hotel restaurant and they had live entertainment -a young woman singer and another woman accompanying her on the guitar. They were surprisingly good -better than what I would expect at a hotel restaurant in the U.S.!
When researching hotels in Taipei online, we had trouble telling from photos if the rooms had showers or not. Our room at the Miramar Garden had a unique bathroom design wherein there was a full bath and then the shower head and handheld shower wand was outside the bath - but access to both was accomplished by opening one glass door. Essentially you were standing right BESIDE the bathtub, not IN it, as you showered.
Warning: this hotel’s location is NOT in an area with lots of nearby dining options. We walked a few blocks circling the hotel but ended up back at the hotel restaurant because we weren’t in the mood for the few food choices we found. Partly our own fault. We started our search thinking we wanted a light sandwich meal then ended up getting hungrier as we walked and ultimately ate a complete steak dinner at the hotel!"
