We stayed in this hotel for three nights in March 2013 as an extension after our Taiwan East Coast tour group disbanded. After five days of five star hotels with the tour group, this was a little step down as expected. My Orlando travel agent recommended this hotel to save us money, and she was correct both on good location... More

Raymond the manager of the hotel was extremely helpful. So friendly . He helped plan our roadtrip down the east coast. Lent us their road atlas and plotted our route for us.

The staff were friendly, although we didn't have a lot of interaction with them. There is free wifi, and they provide bottles of... More

We stayed at the Gala Hotel in September 2012, using it as a bookend coming and going to Bali. We spent 3 nights each time. I have to say that, from our perspective (American tourists), this hotel would earn its best marks from business travelers or from Japanese/Chinese tourists. From our American tourist perspective it left a bit to be... More

As you know, Taiwan is not one of favorite countries around me in Korea. After deciding to take the first trip to Taipei, Taiwan, I have met a lot of problems. That is why there are few informations and books about Taiwan. The most serious one is which hotel is recommendable and economic to me. While considering to solve it,... More

Stayed for 3 nights on business. Hotel location was along sung chiang road so its like right in the city. Comparing to other hotels in Taipei I think this is an average small size hotel. Plenty of tourists from Japan and Hong Kong. Restaurant breakfast was nothing to shout, I didn't like it when I compared to similar Taipei hotels.... More

The staff are very helpful and the buffet breakfast has a good selection. We (family of 3 adults) stayed here in December 2011 before and after a 5-day tour around Taiwan, and they... More
