We had an absolutely wonderful and satisfying stay at Palmer Hotel! One of the first things we noticed was the beautiful, refreshing scent in the lobby and all through the hallways—it made coming back to our room feel so relaxing. The breakfast buffet was superb with a fantastic variety of food. Plus, the location is unbeatable; it's highly accessible to transportation and very close to all the top tourist spots. A perfect stay from start to finish!”

Overall, my stay was quite good. The hotel's biggest advantage is its excellent location. It's directly across from Taipei Main Station, making it incredibly convenient for taking the MRT, High-Speed Rail, regular trains, or the airport MRT. The surrounding area is well-equipped with amenities, featuring numerous restaurants, snack stalls, and convenience stores, so finding food is a breeze. Ximending is also just about a 15-minute walk away, perfect for shopping, browsing, or trying local delicacies. Plus, the hotel is right next to Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Department Store (Taipei Station branch) and directly connected to an underground shopping mall, adding to the convenience for both shopping and getting around.
As for in-room facilities, a refrigerator is provided, which is very practical. The hot water supply was stable, with sufficiently hot temperatures and strong pressure, making showers very comfortable.
However, there are a few areas where the hotel could improve. The cleanliness needs a bit of work; the room carpet wasn't thoroughly cleaned, and I noticed visible dust on the headboard and walls. Also, since the hotel is located within a shared building, elevator wait times can be long during rush hour or peak tourist times. On another note, while the hotel offers washing machines and dryers, both require an extra fee. This could add to the expenses for guests planning a longer stay.
All in all, if convenient transportation, surrounding facilities, and local amenities are your main considerations, this hotel is a good choice, though there's still room for improvement in terms of room cleanliness. The overall stay was pleasant and I would recommend it. ★★★★☆ (4/5 stars)

The location is excellent, right opposite Taichung Station. There's a supermarket, convenience store, and restaurants next door. The price is also reasonable.
What I didn't like was their very strict check-in and check-out times – check-out at 11 AM and check-in at 3 PM. They charge you for exceeding these times. However, one morning, they started cleaning the hallway at 9 AM, and the noise of the machines woke me up, even though it wasn't even housekeeping time yet. Also, on my first day, my room was already clean, but they wouldn't let me check in early. This feels like a double standard.

WiFi poor connection for our stay for 5 nights although we complained but no improvement at all. We forced to use our own data until we had to buy new data during our 6 days trip in Taipei. That was our 1st bad experience for hotel stay 🥺.
Good location👍🏻. The hotel building got lifts connected to Taipei MRT station thru level B3 from hotel back lifts.
For those with big luggages, can use the lift between Z2 & Z4 to the hotel building. Then access the main building door to the hotel lobby at 5th floor by using the last 4 lifts. If unsure, can ask the security guard of the hotel building.
Hotel got washing machine at level 3, got vending machine, water dispenser & weighing scale 👍🏻😊.
Checking in@4pm, can leave luggage at lobby corner area. Location is top notch,next door is bedding shop, majority local eateries around opens around noon, for breakfast walk further up across main street
Room is immaculately clean,plenty of local channels & 2English programmes available on TV, Japanese toilet is available in the double room
Especially loves the AC as it’s not facing bed directly
There is water dispenser on each level,for beverage/Tea sachets, guest need to get it at the pantry behind reception desk

The environment is comfortable, and the service is excellent. The overall experience was great, and the location is convenient for getting around. It's great value for money and worth another stay. I'd choose this place again next time. The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was comfortable, and the front desk staff were friendly, making for a quick check-in. The overall experience was very satisfying. I'll definitely come back next time and recommend it to my friends. Very happy with the experience!

The front desk staff were warm and courteous, and the hotel's location is super convenient, but there are a few shops nearby, so make sure you don't go to the wrong one. The room was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was quite simple but tasted fine. I wish they offered an ice machine, or perhaps they do and I just didn't see it. The laundry room had staff who helped load the dryer, and they provided reserved cards where you could note personal preferences, which was a nice touch.

Right in front of Taichung Station for Taiwan Railways! The building stands out, so it was easy to spot 👍. We traveled from Taipei by HSR and mistakenly thought it was the HSR Taichung Station, so be careful with that 😅.
We stayed here with our kids, and they absolutely loved the super spacious play area! They even said they'd rather play at the hotel than go sightseeing (lol). Since it was hot, it was really convenient to return to the hotel between sightseeing trips. We could rest while the kids played.
The breakfast selection was a bit limited, but for the price, it was perfectly satisfactory! 👍

GGuest UserI had a fantastic stay this time around! The hotel was clean and comfortable, and my room was spotless, bright, and well-equipped. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they were quick to help whenever I had a question or an issue. The location was super convenient, with plenty of amenities nearby. The breakfast was delicious and had a great variety. Overall, the quality of my stay exceeded my expectations. I'll definitely be back if I have the chance, and I'll be recommending it to all my friends and family!
GGuest UserOverall is acceptable.
Good location, there are shops and restaurants nearby, is convenient to go attractive places.
The only thing is the hotel is old, seems like lack of maintenance and upgrades.

GGuest UserOverall, it was a good stay, but there are a few drawbacks to consider:
1. They didn't inform me before check-in that I needed to purchase a membership card to extend my stay for a second night. Otherwise, I'd have to check out and then check in again. While it wasn't a lot of money, it left a bad impression.
2. The check-in time was a bit odd.
AArial900The hotel is a bit difficult to find because the lobby is located at 5th floor but maybe that was my fault did’t read the instruction carefuly but other than that it’s good enough for me and my family who just transit for a bit, i didn’t know maybe it’s a bit to small for 3 person with a big luggage. But it’s clean and i have a nice rest there
SSunnyhuangThis hostel is conveniently located right across from Hualien train station and the transfer station. The breakfast is incredibly generous with new dishes every day, and the entire space is very clean. Having a self-service washing machine is also a big plus. There's a 7-Eleven right next door, and you're greeted with beautiful views of layered mountains as soon as you step outside.
GGuest UserThis is a very convenient location with plenty of food and entertainment options nearby. The young men and women at the front desk were incredibly friendly, enthusiastic, thoughtful, and attentive. They helped us plan our itinerary and transportation for our trip to Hualien Yilan, and also shared recommendations for delicious food and fun activities there. The room was also quite neat and clean, overall everything was excellent. Definitely recommend!
Aamar07A very good option overall, especially for budget travelers. I would rate the hotel 5 out of 5 for cleanliness, location, and service.
The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Rooms and common areas were tidy and comfortable, which makes a big difference when you are staying at a budget property.
The location is excellent. It is situated very close to a metro station, which makes getting around Taipei very convenient. For travelers planning to explore the city using public transport, the location works very well.
Service was also very good. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay.
In terms of amenities, travelers should manage expectations. The hotel provides the basics but not everything you might find in a full-service hotel. It is recommended to bring your own toiletries as only minimal items are provided in the room.
Breakfast is simple and delivered as a packed option, typically something like a sandwich or a burger-style item. It is basic but perfectly adequate. One nice touch is that the hotel offers free coffee throughout the day from a coffee machine and complimentary snacks such as chips and crackers at the reception area. They also provide bottled water upon request.
Overall, this is not a luxury or fancy hotel, but for budget travelers it is a very practical and comfortable choice. If you are looking for an affordable place that is clean, well located, and run by friendly staff, Tai Hope Hotel is a solid option.
GGuest UserThe room is clean,the room is wide for 2 person,,and it's very convenience because it's not too far to train station and all the store.and my sister is known to be picky to the food she eat,
And thank G, she like the food she like the breakfast,she said it's delicious.
