Taiwan accommodation

If you want to stay inside the Alishan Forest Recreation Area, Alishan Hotel is hard to beat. Forest trails start right outside, so you can simply step out and go on an early morning walk.

One of Taipei’s newest deluxe addresses, the Capella bills itself as a modern mansion – and it plays the part well.

Most hotels are a base for exploring. But Hoshinoya Guguan is the attraction itself: a Japanese ryokan inspired hot spring resort in the hills above Taichung, and one of the premier properties in all of Taiwan. (Photo Credit Hoshinoya Guguan)

Kaohsiung may be Taiwan’s second city, but the hotel Amnis proves that when it comes to classic modern Luxury Koahsiung is second to none.

Located just steps from the Formosa Boulevard MRT Station (subway) and its famous Dome of Light instillation, the Hotel Dua might be the most conveniently located hotel in Kaohsiung.

One of the smartest, most upmarket bases in the Alishan area, Hotel Indigo Alishan sits on the mountain road up to the Alishan National Forest Recreation Area – handy if you’re here for cool air, early starts and big views.

Just Sleep Hotel is one of our favorite budget friendly hotels in Taipei. And here, budget friendly doesn’t mean sacrificing on comfort or convenience.

Sun Moon Lake Hotel has the one thing that really matters here: it’s right on the water, so you can step outside and get straight onto the lakeside paths for cycling and easy walks.

With only five rooms, Villa 32 is a genuinely small, exclusive hot spring hotel in Beitou, blending Japanese and European design with the most attentive Taiwanese service.

Surrounded on all sides by the rivers and marble hillsides of Taroko Gorge, the Wellspring by Silks Taroko is luxurious, comfortable, and yet you feel right in the midst of the mountains.

Right on the edge of Ximending, West Gate is the sort of small, no-fuss hotel that makes city breaks easier: you can be eating at a street stall or browsing shops within minutes.

Welcoming and cozy, this homestay style hotel has some lovely views out over the hills of the Sun Moon Lake area.
