Fullon Hotel Linkou is a good choice for travelers visiting Gueishan in Taoyuan city or Linkou in Taipei. It is one of the Fullon Hotel chains, with clean rooms, above-average restaurants, and well-trained staff that you can expect from the chain.
Fullon Linkou is very close to Huaya Industrial Park, making it especially suitable for business travelers. Indeed, the hotel is just a few blocks away from Fuxing-1-lu, the main traffic artery of Gueishan business district including Huaya Park. Fuxing-1-lu also doubles as a sort of downtown of the district, with many good eateries along the road. For a closer eating option, there is a good dumpling restaurant on Wenhua-2-lu, one block to the east. It’s easy to find; it is the only one packed with local people among the several restaurants across Highness Hotel. The hotel stocks each room with two bottles of water every day, free-of-charge. But if you want other drinks and snacks, there is a convenience store just across the street.
While the towns of Gueishan and Linkou do not enjoy public rail services, there is Highway 1 running from Taipei through the border between the two towns. Since the hotel is also very close to the Highway, this makes calling a taxi a viable choice for quick sightseeing/shopping trips to Taipei. For trips to and from Taipei-Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), the hotel can provide limos, with some charge, of course. The airport is about twenty-minutes away.
The hotel itself is very clean, well-staffed, and very competitively-priced considering its broad range of amenities and services. Facilities are modern, with electronic key-cards for accessing your room. While the bathrooms coming with standard rooms do not have bathtubs, they are stocked with all sorts of amenities, and shower stalls are roomy. Breakfast buffet has Taiwanese, Japanese, and Western items of above-average quality. Staffs are attentive, and most speak practical English.
In conclusion, Fullon Hotel Linkou is a very good choice for business travelers to Gueishan (Huaya) or Linkou area, with quick access to Highway 1 and, hence, the TPE airport as well Taipei City. I do recommend this hotel to people seeking a place to stay near Huaya Industrial Park.
