Every year, I return to Taiwan and stay in different hotels due to various circumstances (also because I like to try new things).
This year, Eclat Hotel pretty much solidified my future choices in Taipei.
The location is unbeatable (I changed my flight due to a typhoon, so I randomly picked it without paying much attention to the address, just saw it was Zhongxiao East Road and went for it).
Turns out, it's right on Zhongxiao East Road, in the Dinghao commercial district, with excellent access to everything. I even walked to Yanji Street every night for late-night snacks. Downstairs, there's a beverage shop on each side, and directly across the street is the 24-hour Jingxing Teahouse.
Don't even get me started on Starbucks and bakeries.
The subway entrance is right outside the door.
The rooms are spacious and quiet, and the 13th and 14th floors are high enough.
It's positioned as an economy hotel (inn), so unless you absolutely need a luxurious and bright lobby, I honestly can't think of a reason not to stay here again, haha.
If I had to find a flaw, I'd offer a small suggestion:
Could we... perhaps... upgrade the TV in the room to a larger one? (laughs)
