Property Description
Hualien Wow Hostel is a 2-minute walk from Hualien Railway Station. Founded in July 2015, Hualien Wow Hostel, formerly known as Green Leaf Hotel, is a hostel that rebuilds the main building of an old hotel into a fresh, lively and themed youth hostel, bringing the characteristics of Taiwan's natural environment and the enthusiasm of local culture to backpackers from all over the world. Let them know the beauty of Taiwan, and then introduce more people to see and experience Taiwan. And "people" is the most beautiful scenery in Taiwan. Hualian Whirl Youth Hostel adheres to the most well-known nationality of Taiwan, which is warm and friendly. It treats everyone as family and friends and shares the most beautiful natural landscape and folk customs of Hualien that we know. Therefore, we welcome backpackers who love to make friends and travel to explore Hualien with us. There are many sightseeing resources in Hualien, and different activities can be arranged from morning to night. There are blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green land, moist sea and fresh air, and various and extensive scenic spots, such as Taroko and Qixing Lake, which are all world-famous scenic spots. There are more than 6000 businesses in the city, including clothing shops, restaurants, cafes, beverage shops, record stores, book stores, massage, KTV, movie theaters, night food and Aboriginal culture. Whether shopping, recreation, old street tour, Hualien can meet your needs. We have great passion for Taiwan and travel, and love Hualien, a land with good mountains and rivers. While sharing with tourists, we should not forget the importance of environmental protection. We integrate the concept of environmental friendliness into the space and provide tourists with new life thinking. We love to make new friends and share our travel experiences and life stories. During your short stay in Hualien for a few days, I hope you will come to our nest with the feeling of being friends with us.

All in all a good stay. The room was clean and had a spacious bathroom. The hostel is 3 min from the main train station and there is a lot of scooter rentals and restaurants in the area.

For no hassles, simple stay, this is probably one of the best you can get at Hualien. It is less than 5 minutes walk from the Hualien train station. I opt for a private double bed room with a private toilet shower. It serves simple bread toast breakfast in the morning and has a complete kitchen if you need to cook or heat up your food. I was supposed to be given a set of vouchers, which is definitely a pleasant gift. Strongly recommend for those who wants to explore Hialien.

All round great hostel. Check in is seamless, facilities are good. The open kitchen and hangout area is spacious. Rooms are great sizes - I stayed in one with just two bunks, with loads of room for luggage. Really convenient from the station but further out from some of the main sites. Recommend hiring a bike from a few doors down.

The location was superb, and even for a somewhat rare breed for a hostel like myself--the one that arrives by driving oneself, the location couldn't be better since it was right in front of a parking lot for a train station. My only wish would be that they might look into the efficiency of their HVAC system or spend some dimes on deodorizers. I'm pretty sure it wasn't their negligence or anything like that, but due to odors emanating from some of their guests, it stank from time to time.
