Hotels with Rooftop Pools in Taipei

"I frequently visit Taipei, but this was my first time staying at the Grand Hotel. Its vibrant red aesthetic is incredibly captivating; every time the MRT passes by, I can't help but take an extra look. My direct experience staying here was excellent. Even though it was a windowless room, it didn't feel stuffy at all, and there were no odors, which shows how diligently the hotel manages its rooms. The breakfast spread was exceptionally rich – I ate for an hour and was completely stuffed! You can also visit the secret tunnels; this time I went to the East Secret Tunnel. It cost 500 TWD, and you can book it at a counter near the hotel's front desk."

"Location is excellent! Right above train station and lots of eateries nearby, and not too far from ximending. Family suite Room is great! Spacious, separate sleeping and living area. The bathtub overlooking the mountains is so luxurious. The staff are also very friendly and helpful. Value for money. Will definitely choose here again."

"The environment is elegant, the interior design is grand, the decor is luxurious, and it's very clean. The overall feeling and experience are excellent. It's definitely worth trying for friends visiting Taiwan, and the transportation is very convenient."

"This hotel is conveniently located just across the road from Jiantan MRT station exit 1. You are 1 min from the MRT station. The reception is friendly and welcoming. Though the room size is small, everything is well designed in such a way that it feel bigger as everything you need from luggage stand, mini bar, safe box is all easily accessible. Even though my room is on level 3 directly facing the MRT track, the sound proofing is so good that I don’t even hear the train passing.  The room is very clean and bed is firm and comfortable. Air coning is strong if you set it to low temperature. It worked well.  The breakfast is average."

"Beautiful environment. Room decoration was good and big space. Breakfast time, lots of food varieties, and high quality. Very good room services, since standard pillows are very soft. Request for harder pillows and hotel immediately replaced harder ones with neck curvature, which allowed best sleeping experience. Spa area good hygiene and comfortable. Spa provides 3 different temperature pools, allowing various choices of spa experience. Convenient transport to different areas in Taipei. Strong advice to friends to choose the same hotel during the journey in Taipei."

"Conclusion: Would definitely stay again! The hotel is super convenient, just a short walk from MRT Jiantan Station Exit 2. Despite its proximity to the station, the soundproofing was excellent; we barely heard any outside noise, and the in-room soundproofing was equally impressive. Pros: The room was beautiful and spacious. The bathroom had a TV, and the shower facilities were very comfortable; bathrobes were also provided. A JBL Bluetooth speaker was conveniently placed next to the bed. The TV's speakers were also of good quality, though it was a slight bummer that it couldn't connect to YouTube. The minibar was well-stocked with complimentary soft drinks (Coke, Sprite, etc.), and there was a capsule coffee machine and even a microwave! Beyond the standard amenities, the room offered numerous thoughtful extras that felt like pleasant surprises, such as small pouches to take home unused soap. Cons: Our first impression was slightly marred when we tried to call the front desk with a query, but the phone rang for a long time without an answer. The room key card was problematic; even after we got a replacement, it was still difficult to get it to register (we didn't bother reporting it again), leading to some frustrating moments trying to open the door."

"I chose the Howard Plaza Hotel for my conference, as the venue was at the Taipei International Convention Center, right next to 101. Personally, I had a good experience. Although it's an 8-9 minute walk to the MRT station, it's only two stops away from the convention center. The hotel's facilities are a bit older overall, but there were no issues with the experience itself."

"The hotel required a 10,000 NTD deposit. I completely forgot to get it back when I checked out and only remembered once I got to the airport. The front desk insisted I had to physically go back to the hotel to retrieve it. They wouldn't allow a bank transfer (not even to a ********* colleague) or cash by mail/COD. Even with Trip.com's help to mediate, the hotel still refused. So, I'm giving a bad review for the service."

"We stayed on the 17th floor, and the shower pressure was unbelievably low – it felt weaker than a toilet flush. I reported this to the front desk. They asked if we'd like them to send someone to check it, but it was already past 9 PM, and we had already showered. Given we were only staying one night, I simply wanted to bring it to their attention, not necessarily request an immediate fix. Whether the hotel followed up to inspect or repair it after we checked out remains to be seen, and will be for the next guest to find out. Also, the pillows were quite soft. I asked the front desk if they had firmer options. The staff member who answered the phone surprisingly asked how many nights we were staying. After I replied 'one night,' she just said, 'Oh, we only have one buckwheat pillow and one memory foam pillow.' So, we had no choice but to try those. I'm still puzzled why my length of stay was relevant to the pillow inquiry."

"Very pleasant stay overall in a Horizon Club room. The service at the Horizon Club lounge in particular was excellent throughout- Joyce, Beatrice and Anita the lovely ladies who made sure every visit to the lounge is delightful. The complimentary breakfasts, afternoon tea and happy hours at Horizon Club added much value to the stay! Great view of Taipei 101 from room too image attached."
