Park Yeri Olan Taichung Otelleri

I did not expect this accommodation to be a motel based on its Chinese name, so it was a bit of a surprise when I checked in. The location is very convenient, which is a big plus. However, the overall environment had a slight smell of cigarette smoke. The room itself was spacious, but for guests arriving on foot, the access route is not very intuitive—you need to go down to the basement first and then enter through the parking garage, which makes the circulation feel somewhat inconvenient.

Located in a quite business area. MTR station and some site-seeing spots are within walking distance (around 10-20 minutes) which is good for a leisure walk. The hotel is well-equipped. Have not tried the restaurants as there are many good food in the community. There is a 24-H self-service laundry shop nearby which is clean and convenient.

Best resort in Taiwan and worth every penny. Highest level of service - it’s like being at a modern luxury ryokan in Japan except everyone speaks Chinese. Room design is brilliant, and one king room fit my family of 2 adults and 2 toddlers with a California king and a separate tatami area. The room has an epic view from every angle the moment you walk in the door and includes a private outdoor onsen connected to your bathroom. I noticed many private in-room onsens in Japan are diluted down, but this was spring fed. The public onsen was huge, extremely well maintained, and included a large walled zen garden with an adjacent sauna and cold plunge. I was lucky enough to experience this area all to myself with one other guest leaving as I arrived and another guest arriving as I was leaving. In China, this onsen would have comfortably accommodated 100 bathers. The spring water is not high in sulfuric content (doesn’t smell like rotten eggs), and the temperature is relatively mild - ideal for my family. Given the limited availability of the hotel online, I was expecting it to be more crowded. I got the sense that room rates are controlled to optimize guest experience, not profit, while staff are trained to ensure that customers never feel like they are being ripped off or “sold”. It seemed there were more staff than guests on site. I originally booked 2 rooms, and some of my family members couldn’t make the trip. We didn’t need the second room, and the staff were very gracious to refund and cancel the second room on the spot. When I’m back in Taiwan or traveling to a place where Hoshinoya does business, I would not hesitate to book again and make a special journey to stay at one of their destination resorts.

I was quite surprised that our room was ready and allowed us to check in early. This is definitely a plus point as it gave us time to rest especially travelling up from Taipei with 2 kids with us. Overall, Im quite pleased with everything provided during the stay. Thank you!

Room is clean and nice, and the staff are all very friendly. Really recommend this place!

Easily fit a family of 4 adults. Super comfortable. Clean. Especially love the waiting area at lobby. Car park was a bit small but still accomodating.

Families with kids and elderly book 2 double bed quadruple. Room is clean, bed is.comfortable. kids is happy with the jacuzzi. The location is not convenient but.they.provide shuttle services to and fro feng jia night market. Lucky we have our own driver to go other tourist attractions so is still ok. Overall is a nice stay.

The location of this hotel was nice, we could walk and transit everywhere we wanted to go. The concept of the hotel was quite nice and different. The bathroom area is quite dark and could use some lighting, but besides that the room and bathroom seemed quite clean. The hotel staff were kind and helpful. There is some noise at night but I used earplugs and was fine. Overall had a nice stay at this hotel.

Room was clean and amenities were ample, bed is comfortable and location is convenient. But I didn't like that the shower hot water wasn't always hot, especially on the morning of my check out day :( Also, the room lights control panel was a little too bright making it hard to get total darkness for sleep in the room.
