Spacious rooms with breathtaking views. We got upgraded from a twin beds room to a twin kings room. The facility is clean and quiet but only thing is the building are built by wood so therefore very little sound proof! You can hear people talk outside and floor above you moving furniture or walking.. property is surrounded by mountains/ tea plantations so it’s not close to anything. Breakfast was decent and the only choice for dinner was hotpot. You pay extra for it. It was good but if you’re not a fan of it. There’s no other choice. Beside some loud talking guests, I did enjoyed my stay at this property.

The rooms are a super pleasant surprise! Very modern, new, clean, yet retains a lot of the local charm. Plus, jaw dropping view and absolute tranquility. Amazing experience. We can’t wait to come back

The room is big but has some dust and few dead buds on the vanity table and shelf. The toilet paper roll holder is broken and the paper roll is up on the towel rack. Lots of stair and it’s hard to carry with some luggage since you have to go through up and down stairs. The sign is not clear to find the main entrance. No early breakfast prepared but this is a place to go to Alishan to watch sun rise. Not worth the price of the room.

This is a beautiful tea growing area, with incredible views out of our room. Despite a language barrier, the staff was very helpful in making us feel welcome. They helped set us up with hikes, the bus to Alishan (including giving us a ride to and from the bus stop), and arranging a car service to take us to our next destination. We can't recommend staying here enough, including for any foreign visitors concerned about ease of navigation or a language barrier. Thank you again!

This is a really amazing gem of a place on the side of the mountain. Surrounded by a working coffee and tea farm and set amongst a trail system that one can walk to really check out the terrain. Spotless rooms overlooking the farm with all the amenities and the really fun hot pot restaurant for dinner.

Very unique and clean. It serves great breakfast with lot of variety. Hot pot dinner onsite is highly recommended. Beds are soft and very comfy. Because it is in the mountains, occasional bugs and mosquitoes could inevitably sneak in. Overall, a great stay.

Mountain stay
Stayed for 2 nights. Weather was great n chilly. There were lots of bugs which me and my aunt weren’t used to cuz we came from the city. Food is so so only. But I guess the 人情味 from the host as well as the locals made up for it. Had a great time overall. Managed to catch a sunrise from the platform nearby, lots of natural air but rather inaccessible so driving over recommended.

Am really amazed with their service and room condition. Very new and huge. Please book this accommodation as the staffs and owners are extremely friendly. They will even send you out to take public bus to Alishan Park. You can also opt to walk 10mins to catch the sunrise near the accommodation area. Lastly, they have a lovely dog and cat. I will definitely come by again some day. Thank you! 谢谢你们的招待啊，我们会想你你们和黑lulu ☺️

Clean and nice
hotel is very roomy. commodities are clean and completed. decorations were pretty and staffs were friendly. We had a hotpot dinner in the evening. It was pretty good. Sound proof is not very well. Bedroom to room has no completed wall. We heard a large group of people talking outside when we tried to sleep. internet was not working very well in our room.

Very Nice Place
The location is about 40 minutes driving to either Fenchihu or Alisan National Park.The room is spacious and comfortable. There is a trail leading to a hill top (15 min walk) which is the perfect spot for watching sunrise.

Hotel with a view from the mountain.
Ideal place to get know ther outdoor with tea plantation around. There are plenty to see and many hiking path around the resort. Also there see no shortage of dogs, cats, rabbits and poultry. There is a designated spot to watch sun rise which is 10 mins walk away from the main area. Believe me it is worth getting up at six and see the first ray shining through. What a prefect way to start your day! The rooms are modern and clean with good fittings amd large TV. Wifi is less than idea and could be frustratingly slow or no signal. Oh one more thing is the mobile connection can be intermittent depends on where you are. The place offers dinner at night in a form of hot pot in an outdoor setting at a very affortable and reasonable price. Standard meal offers pork slices, veg, meat balls etc. Anything on top will be charged extra. Hotel staff was hospitable and friendly. They are helpful and always willing to chit chat and offer their service. I had to change room owing to a bit of odour in the bathroom, they were happy to change us into another room upon request. I was impressed by their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our request. Driving there is not so easy though, you may get lost even with GPS as the road into the place can be missed easily. The road up to Alishan is wide but very winding with many hair pin corners. New drivers need to pay attention to the speed when approaching these hair pins. Despite that i will not hesitate to recommend

May be it is just me
The road is so dark and the staff ask me to move my car forward but he cannot see the stone wall (around 30cm high) and it led to a crash. Not even an apology was given. And they cannot find the booking because the booking name shown on their record is simply expedia. Took some time to solve. The room is nice.
