Nearby Local Attractions

Three unmissable Luodong spots are all within a 15-minute walk of the hotel:

• Luodong Night Market: Just five minutes away on foot, this is Yilan’s most beloved night market, famous for for green onion pancake, pan-fried bun, and milkfish balls. Arrive early to beat crowds, and save room for the iconic winter melon lemon tea.
• Luodong Forestry Culture Park: A 10-minute walk from the hotel, this 16-hectare former logging factory is now a sprawling green space with leafy walking paths, heritage wooden buildings, art installations, and open lawns perfect for picnics. Kids love feeding the carp in the calm ponds and exploring the open-air machinery exhibits.

Travel Tips

Since the hotel offers no on-site parking, if you’re driving, use the public pay parking lot two blocks away on Gongzheng Road, which is affordable and rarely full outside major holiday weekends. The hotel’s central location means you can leave your car parked there for your whole stay and walk everywhere you need to go in Luodong’s city center. If you’re arriving by train, Luodong Station is just a 10-minute taxi ride away, and most drivers know the hotel by name. Book your stay in advance during peak travel seasons (Chinese New Year, summer vacation, and the Yilan Green Onion Festival) as family rooms fill up quickly. Don’t forget to ask the front desk for their handpicked snack recommendations—many local vendors offer small discounts for hotel guests.
