Hotels near Shilin Shennong Temple, Taipei

Pretty average hotel stay experience. Average pricing, average service. The only down side was our room had the emergency exit sign that was so bright at night we had to close it behind the curtain… but we generally prefers to have the curtain open to allow sunlight in the morning… so that was unfortunate.

I had a fantastic stay at Water Me World Taipei. The hotel offers convenient amenities, including a pantry with a microwave oven and a water refill station. While the washing machine and dryer require payment, they are very handy. I loved the free upgrade from a king bed to a double king bed, which comfortably fit four people. The location is excellent, close to Taipei Station with halal food nearby. There’s no breakfast, but the Family Mart downstairs made it easy to grab essentials. However, note that they don’t provide toothbrushes, so be sure to bring your own. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!

To date, during my 4th visit to Taipei, this is by far the best hotel overall in terms of price, proximity, location and amenities. As for breakfast, I have no comments as I chose the stay without it. The hotel is just opposite the Taipei Main Station and it is super convenient if you are travelling a lot by Metro or HSR. The hotel basement is linked directly to the Taipei Main Station and you need not fret even on rainy days. On the basement level, you can access to a wide spread of Japanese restaurants and other eateries. Starbucks and Tim Ho Wan are within reach too. Behind the hotel, there are in fact a lot of small eateries and stalls. You might want to give it a try if you like to eat like a local! There are far too many food choices near this hotel. You will never go hungry. Hotel room cleanliness and amenities are good, nothing to fault. On the other side, noticed there is only 1 laundry washing machine and 1 dryer within the hotel which is very limited. Hope in time to come, there will be more as it is very convenient for long stay travellers' to have their laundry done here. Price is very reasonable too, 50 twd for washing and another 50 twd for drying. What a good deal! Just to highlight for amenities, you will have to get from the hotel counter as they do not provide inside the room, eg comb, shower cap, toothbrush and toothpaste etc. Overall, this is the hotel I fancy the most and I will definitely come back to stay in this hotel again in time to come!

Love this hotel. It look new and nice. Very close to family mart and 7-11. Best is that hotel will free u two cold beers! The water pressure in the bathroom super good.

Tha blanket in the room was dirty as you can see in photo 2. The Wifi was very bad during our stays for 5 days 5 nights, staff did offers us to change room but we needed to take care our Mum which is next to our room, they cant promise they have two room to change after consider that we decided to give up the wifi but stay next door to our Mum. Besides this, they only provided 2 sticks of instant Nescafe, no tea. The hotel looks like a maze, you needed to find you room in a maze hotel

Location is superb, just above ximen station. Room is small but clean. There is even a small bathtub in the toilet. Breakfast is rather crowded and you have to find your own seat. They don't allow early check in, can only check in after 1431hrs.

Located within minutes from Ximending and the Taipei metro, so it was the perfect location for me. I had the deluxe room which was spacious, with lots of room space to move around and there was a mini fridge, open wardrobe where I could hang my clothes and a counter top on the side with 2 chairs. The shower and toilet was also spacious with a kinda bathtub. Shower gel and shampoo in dispenser were also available. Toothrbrush, shaver, comb and shower cap were all available during check in if required and bathroom slippers were also available in the room. Little things that made everything complete. At the concierge, there were snacks that were free of charge for guests and a water dispenser that serves sparkling water which was so cool! The room will be cleaned upon request and when I asked why, they said cos some guests want their privacy and do not wanna be disturbed so they will only clean the room upon request. Luckily I am quite a tidy person and didn’t eat in my room so my room was generally clean and didn’t really need any cleaning during my stay. Towels were sufficient and I only needed more tissue and mineral water during my stay and was given to me upon my request. If anything is needed, the concierge is also available 24 hours which ensured peace of mind for every guest. But most of all, it was the staff that made my stay fun and memorable. They were extremely friendly and approachable. I love the family/friends feel whenever I was in their space. They were also extremely helpful when I asked about where I could get great local food and they would even Google and show me exactly what they were recommending and made sure I will get to the desired destination. Overall, this is a great hotel that I would highly recommend for anyone when travelling to Taipei Taiwan.

The hotel is in an excellent location near many delicious and trendy restaurants as well as bars and shopping. The hotel itself is cute, but the shower area had some mold growing on the walls. Other than that, they offer free snacks, coffee and tea in your room and is replenished daily along with clean towels. The hotel staff were also lovely and very accommodating when asking for a later check out! Other than the cleaning situation, I highly recommend as it’s a great price!

The Fullerton gets a bad wrap on a lot of these reviews. It's both good and bad. I'm a frequent business traveller to Taiwan and have stayed in probably 30 different hotels so I speak with some experience. The Fullerton has a lovely downstairs area with free coffee - proper coffee from a proper machine which is even better than the coffee at breakfast. This is great. As a business traveller, it also gives me a nice relaxing place to work, and I don't need to walk around to find a coffee shop / bring coffee back. Staff are also very polite. The hotel, like many in Taipei is outdated and a bit old - but most here are like that sadly from my experience. My room was a bit dark and smelled a bit musty - but was generally very clean. The window glass had some crap between the layers though and I'd prefer a window I can open even if just a little. Bathroom was very clean as was the bed - which, let's face it, is the most essential. After travelling south for a night, I came back to Taipei and then booked the Miramar Garden hotel for the same price. This hotel is 10x better for the price range. I have an elite business room on a top floor and free hotel lounge access with free coffee, beer, drinks, snacks, along with other facilities like the pool. For the price range, it is far better value for money. Fullerton isn't terrible though.

I chose this hotel with a reasonable price and the swimming pool. The staffs were very kind and helpful. There’s one nearby night market and the famous Longshan temple with 5minute walking distance. The overall area doesn’t seem so nice but close to the central areas and taking uber was very convenient. A decent size swimming pool was quite nice. There’s a water fountain but no bottled water provided. The convenient store is right next to the hotel though.
