Pet Friendly Hotels in Taiwan, China

I've been here many times, always choosing to come during the off-season before Chinese New Year. Both breakfast and dinner are great, and the hotel rooms have been renovated. It's a shame the macaw from before is gone. The beautiful scenery of Xiaowan Beach remains as stunning as ever.

A wonderful experience, surrounded by mountains and streams, breathing in the fresh forest air and enjoying the natural scenery. The hotel's facilities were great, and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. Due to its secluded location, all meals were enjoyed at the hotel. The ingredients were quite unique, and I especially loved the blanched seasonal vegetables at dinner 😋. A pleasant fragrance permeated the entire hotel; I wondered if it was used to deter insects!

Our family really enjoyed this hotel. The room was big spacious. However, the shower was really weird. It was really short so we had to take a bath and couldn’t shower properly. The shower was elevated and definitely could not fit anyone that was more than 4 ft 5”.  This is not a typo. The shower is meant for pretty much kids. If adults stand there, The water will spray everywhere all over the floor. The hotel was really excellent with their communications. We left something important at the hotel and they quickly reached out to us and is able to ship to our next hotel. The location is also unbeatable. Just across the street from the MRT and Kaohsiung station. The HSR station is 5 MRT stops away. We didn’t see many few options right next to the hotel and had to walk about 10 minutes to a local market.

A family of 5: the kids enjoyed the room with the slide v much. The 3 queen beds(2 on upper loft) and 1 on lower floor were very comfortable, pillows offered decent support. A fan was provided in room to circulate the air. Kids really enjoyed sliding down but sound proofing of the room not that thick so we were told that the kids were too noisy. The staff were v helpful with the carpark arrangement at a separate site, we didn’t have to worry abt getting a carpark lot on all 3 days.  Not so great: The Minsu’s toilet has no non-slip flooring or bathmats inside so hard to dry the toilet floor after a shower. Shampoo & body soap provided though. No shower curtains. Staff didn’t make up the room although we hung the tag to clean room. They did apologise when we asked abt it.  All in all, a restful stay, with good space for the family with our 2 luggages opened on the sofa. Would recommend if kids are young & would love the slide room. Walking distance to Luodong Night Market too.

The service at this hotel was outstanding; I absolutely loved it. The breakfast spread offered a huge variety, making it very accommodating for different dietary preferences. They also had family-friendly activities, like the hands-on experience of pounding traditional rice cakes (nian gao).

First time staying here, and it was a simple, clean place with convenient transportation. Nearby, there's Taichung Second Market with tons of great food, and the Wan Chuan Temple is right next door, which feels like a blessing. The lobby on the first floor has a coffee machine for freshly ground coffee (you can use the cups from your room), and there's a water dispenser on each floor. The only downside is the soundproofing isn't great – you can hear cars and water noises constantly throughout the night. 😂 Staying on a weekday is super affordable (under a thousand NTD), but Friday and Saturday prices double. I booked two consecutive nights (Friday and Saturday) through Trip two weeks ago. When I checked the prices again on the night of check-in, I found that booking those two nights separately would have been 800 NTD cheaper! Isn't it supposed to be more affordable when you book two consecutive nights?

The hotel is a 15-minute drive from Taoyuan Airport, so the location is pretty good. There aren't many restaurants nearby, which is a bit inconvenient, but for a one-night stay, it was fine. The hotel only offers a shuttle to the airport, not from it. This wasn't mentioned on Trip.com when I booked, which is something they should add. The airport shuttle only runs every 4 hours, which is also inconvenient. However, the breakfast was quite good and varied, and the price was reasonable!

This time, I chose a balcony room with a view. I happened to stay on New Year's Eve, so I could see a lot of other people's fireworks from the balcony. It was great that I didn't have to squeeze into the crowds in Taipei. The hotel cat was also very cute, and the host was very friendly. The next morning, the host even asked me if I slept well. Overall, it was a very good experience!

I recently stayed at 35.5 Inn in Kenting Xiaowan, and overall, I had a very positive experience. The rooms were exceptionally clean, and the amenities provided were good. Everything was well-maintained, making my stay comfortable. The location is fantastic—the hotel is right next to the Kenting Night Market, which is held daily. This makes it incredibly convenient for food, shopping, and entertainment. Additionally, a scooter rental shop is located right next door, offering both regular and electric scooters, making it easy to explore the area. One aspect that could be improved is the check-in process. Unfortunately, check-in is only available from 4:00 PM, which can be inconvenient for travelers arriving earlier. A potential improvement would be to provide guests with the door code in advance, allowing early check-in if the room is already available. In my case, my room was unoccupied before my arrival, so this could have been an easy solution. Overall, I highly recommend 35.5 Inn for its cleanliness, great location, and accessibility to transport options. If they refine their check-in process, it would be an even better experience!

The B&B is about a 10-minute walk from the Hualien Transfer Station. The area is mainly homestays, with a 7-11, supermarket, and breakfast shop nearby. Several souvenir shops are also nearby, making it convenient for shopping. Buses run from the station to the airport, Qixingtan, Taroko, and other popular attractions. Check-in was easy, and the host was quick to respond. There's an elevator and drinking water on the first floor. Shower gel and shampoo are provided in the room, and the hot water supply is stable and plentiful. However, the faucets are stagnant, so you'll need to bring your own toothbrush, toothpaste, and mouthwash cup. The TV offers a wide variety of channels, including YouTube. The day after our stay, a 4.7 magnitude earthquake shook the entire bed, but the elevator was unaffected.
