We booked a 4 people family room in discount rate as check in time needs to be after 7pm. We were a bit worried when gone through the comments, but since the rate was quite low and location just across the road of XinBeitou Metro (overland) station. We still decided to stay in this hotel.||||The hotel building looked really dated and not attractive. Reception small and no decoration, but the good thing is we can leave our luggages next to reception early in the morning, and come back to check into the room later at night after we had a day trip in National Palace Museum, and the huge Shilin Night market (which was just 6 station away).||||We were not disappointed, once when we get out of the lift, the carpet in hallway seems bright and clean to us. The hotel room and bathroom size is huge compare to other taipei hotel we stayed. It also has a big spa bath that fits at least 2 people (with real spring water), which we loved after a whole day of walking around.

You can also pay extra to watch selected movie.||||The breakfast is also not bad, with both Western and Chinese style food, and even a make your own Japanese cold noodle station.||If we come to XinBeitou for the spring bath again, we are happy to book the...
Read moreThe room was well appointed; arrived from Taoyuan Airport after a flight from Chengdu, China; arrived close to midnight. I took a taxi and cost 1,165 NTD ($37.60 USD) at 31:1. The hotel does not look like the picture shown here. Initial appearance looked like a dumpy hotel, but once up to the third floor not the case. Very nice and clean. The hot spring tub hit the spot after a 3.5 hour flight and with an 11 hour flight coming up the day after arrival. The breakfast buffet was good with eggs and other items both Asian and Western. The next time here I will likely stay at another spa hotel the one I originally intended to stay at higher up the hill. This hotel is close to Xinbeitou Metro rail station a major plus; a McDonalds and Starbucks next door and a KFC across the street. A nice park is also directly across the street. The Taipei Metro Rail system offers low cost travel cards NTD 148 24 hour, 257 48 hour and 368 for 72 hours, unlimited travel a good deal ($4.77, $8.29 and $11.87 USD respectively) at 32:1...
