Hostels in Taiwan, China

Location is convenient to Taipei Main Station. Room is clean, and with nice breakfast. Definitely will recommend to friends looking for a good place to stay. Thanks Main Inn 👍🏻

The hotel is conveniently located opposite Taipei Main Station, making transportation very easy, and there are many dining options nearby. However, the room was really small, with hardly enough space for two people to move around. On the bright side, the staff were very friendly and cleaned the room and changed towels daily. It's a convenient choice for business travelers.

Great value for money! The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff provided excellent service. The location made it easy to get around the city. Perfect choice for travelers looking for an affordable and pleasant stay.

The biggest highlight of Meworld Hotel is definitely its convenient location—super easy to get around from here. I also really appreciated the water dispenser next to the lobby area, which was a nice and practical touch. However, there are a few areas that could be improved. The lobby itself is quite small, and the check-in policy is very rigid. Official check-in is strictly at 4:00 PM, and staff were unable to process registration earlier in the day to hand over room cards later. It would make a huge difference if they could complete pre-registration early so guests can just grab their keys and head up at 4:00 PM. Lastly, adding a key card drop-off box for check-out would speed up departure significantly during busy morning hours.

The hotel is ok but the room is big. The restaurant in the hotel is a must try. My daughter LOVEs every dishes she ordered. She said, this is the best food she had in Taiwan, so we had two dinners at the hotel. The location of the hotel is not great! We couldn’t get into the local buses to go to Xitou nor to Taichung because the buses were full from the original starting point. However, the hotel offers fare shuttle service to and from Xitou but not Shanlinxi. The front desk lady drove us to Xitou, she was GREAT and very accommodating, she took us to Xitou bus station outside of the normal schedule hours so we can catch the bus back to Taichung. We would come back again with our car to get to different areas in Xitou again.

Excellent location, walking distance from Taipei Main Station, many departures from Taipei Post Office bus station next street. I like the staircase design of double-decker bed, there is bathroom and a sink inside the room, apart from the hallway ones. The building is old, however, a few stair steps before reaching the lift. Water dispenser is only located on 2/F but lack on 6/F. Lots of food choices downstairs. Room price was the cheapest I could find. 

The room is clean and tidy, and the transportation is convenient. The view from the window is beautiful, and the night view is even more stunning! You can see Xiziwan Port in the distance and the exhibition hall up close – an unbeatable sea view! It's truly a delight to the eyes. Every summer, when we come to Kaohsiung, we always book this hotel first. The owner is very kind; even though we only visit once a year, she already remembers us. It feels familiar and welcoming. I hope someone takes over the management of 85 Sky Tower soon so it can regain its former glory. But then again, I worry that these sea-view rooms will become difficult to book and much more expensive!

This time I brought my wife to Taichung for her birthday, and we stayed at the Norway Forest Cultural Center for the first night. We arrived early to drop off our luggage and immediately experienced the friendly and polite service, which made me feel happy and warm. Although there was a minor issue with the air conditioning in our room when we checked in that evening, the front desk manager came up and helped us switch to a larger and more comfortable room. Their service attitude was also super nice. It's no wonder this hotel has reviews above 9 – it's absolutely deserved. If I have the chance to come again, it will definitely be my first choice! 🥰

A Serious Failure in Management and Guest Service I have never experienced this level of poor service and lack of management oversight at a hotel. Throughout my stay, I had to repeatedly request housekeeping, yet my room was still not cleaned as expected. More seriously, there was even an occasion when I needed to use the bathroom and discovered that there was no toilet paper available. I immediately brought this issue to the attention of the front desk. However, despite making a formal complaint, the exact same problem occurred again the following day. At that point, this could no longer reasonably be considered a simple oversight or an isolated housekeeping mistake. The hotel had already been made aware of the problem, yet nothing appeared to have been done to prevent it from happening again. The most disappointing part is that these issues continued until the day I checked out. After repeatedly reporting the same problems without seeing any meaningful improvement, I eventually stopped complaining simply because I no longer believed that doing so would make any difference. A hotel may occasionally make a mistake — that is understandable. What is unacceptable is failing to correct a problem after a guest has already brought it to management's attention. This reflects a serious breakdown in communication between departments, inadequate supervision, and a lack of accountability at the management level. Basic housekeeping and essential bathroom supplies are not unreasonable requests. They are fundamental standards that guests should be able to expect without having to repeatedly chase the hotel for them. What concerns me most is that the hotel appeared to have multiple opportunities to correct the situation, yet failed to do so. This suggests that the issue is not simply with an individual staff member, but with the way the hotel’s service operations are being managed and supervised. This experience seriously damaged my trust in the hotel and left me with a very negative impression of its overall management and service standards. A hotel’s reputation is built on how it treats guests, especially when something goes wrong. Unfortunately, in this case, the hotel failed not only to deliver basic service, but also to respond effectively when those failures were brought to its attention. I sincerely hope management does not dismiss this as a minor housekeeping issue. The repeated nature of these problems, combined with the lack of effective follow-up, represents a significant management failure and can seriously damage guest trust, customer satisfaction, and ultimately the hotel’s reputation. For me, the most disappointing part was not that a mistake happened. It was that the hotel was given multiple opportunities to fix it — and chose not to.

This was my third stay with this brand and second time at this particular branch. Overall, I'm very satisfied. It offers great value for money and the location is excellent. The only minor inconvenience was the lack of a laundry room, but everything else was perfect.
