Travel Tips

If you plan to visit during peak tourist season (November to April or Chinese New Year), book your room at least one month in advance to secure your preferred view. Parking is available on-site but incurs a daily fee, so guests using public transport will benefit from the hotel’s location just a 3-minute walk from Taipei 101/World Trade Center MRT Station, connecting you to all major city attractions in 20 minutes or less. Don’t skip the hotel’s breakfast—guests consistently rank it as one of the best buffet breakfasts in the city, with a wide range of local Taiwanese and international options.
