• Luodong Night Market: One of Yilan’s most beloved night markets, 3km from the hotel, serves iconic local snacks including scallion pancakes, green onion cakes, and milkfish balls. Arrive early to beat the crowds and browse handcrafted souvenirs.

Travel Tips

Upper floors are only accessible via stairs, so guests with mobility issues should request a ground-floor room when booking. Some outdoor activities and services carry extra fees, so confirm pricing with the front desk upon check-in. If you’re arriving during the peak summer or Lunar New Year travel seasons, book at least one month in advance to secure a room with a view. The hotel’s quiet residential location means you’ll get a great night’s sleep, but it’s a 10-minute walk to the nearest bus stop, so renting a bike from the hotel is the easiest way to get around.
