Travel Tips

If you’re visiting during Taitung’s busy summer festival season (July to August), book your room and reserve your free parking spot at least two weeks in advance. The hotel’s in-house coffee shop serves excellent local Taitung coffee, and you can arrange to have breakfast delivered directly to your room to start your day slow. Don’t forget to pack light, casual clothing and sunscreen if you’re planning to spend the day exploring the nearby coast, and let the front desk know if you’d like to join one of their local cultural tours to learn more about Taitung’s Indigenous and farming heritage.
