The gorge view room was definitely a big wow stepping in. Travel in May, step into the balcony to take in the fresh air and awesomeness of the gorges. Service at this hotel is excellent, with a smile and consistent. The western restaurant needs more staff though; was totally ignored at dinner service and often could not get attention at... More

It was the third day of our cycling trip, and that morning, 9 of us braved a two-hour "ordeal" climbing some 1,200 m over just 20 km to Wuling, the highest paved pass at Hehuanshan. The just reward for the accomplishment was a night at Silks Place. The frontage was unpretentious, but the relaxing decor, pleasant staff and luxurious finishing... More

Can't rave enough about this place. Go. Immediately. Ideal location, right in the middle of Taroko Gorge surrounded by various walking and hiking trails. Great biking and motorcycle riding through the east coast. Place is superb, upscale with a minimalist but beautiful Japanese style lobby/decor.

Silk's Place is a lovely hotel. It is in a very quiet and peaceful town on the river. We had a gorge view room which was nice and it was great hearing the roar from the river below. The evening buffet was delicious and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. There was plenty of variety which included many Taiwanese dishes which... More

This hotel is a "hidden gem". Its located with close proximity to some of the most beautiful hikes and views of the gorge. The deco is contemporary Chinese chic, tasteful and very relaxing.

The location is gorge-ous, and many beautiful walks can be taken around - the gorge is somewhat touristed though. The hotel is really nicely decorated, very serene yet modern. Food... More

It is definitely an upclass one. Though it's the most expensive hotel in Toroko, it offers you much more than accomodation.

I am eating at the hotel restaurant now.. Good food and modern yet cosy atmosphere. The hot jacuzzi is great with the cold gorgeous mountains in the backdrop. Decor is luxurious but not opulent. Very friendly and bilingual staff too! Free wifi is available and has been useful for typing this review :)
