Spa Hotels in Taipei

I recently stayed at Hotel Midtown Richardson in Taipei and found it to be an excellent choice for travelers seeking convenience and modern comfort. Located steps away from Ximen MRT Station (Exit 4), the hotel places you in the bustling Ximending district, surrounded by shopping, street food, and cultural landmarks like the Red House Theater. This prime location made exploring Taipei effortless, with direct MRT access to major attractions such as Taipei 101 and Ningxia Night Market. The room I booked was a Deluxe Twin, which was spacious and well-equipped with amenities like a fridge, flat-screen TV, and free tea/coffee. The minimalist, ”industrial-chic” design gave the space a clean, modern feel. The bathroom impressed me with its automatic松下 (Panasonic) bidet toilet, though the shower’s poor water containment was a minor inconvenience. Housekeeping maintained high standards, with timely room cleaning. Service was efficient overall. The self-check-in kiosks streamlined arrival, and the 24-hour front desk provided helpful travel advice. While the hotel lacks elevators for upper-floor rooms, staff assisted with luggage. The free lobby coffee/tea station was a nice touch, though breakfast (available at an extra cost) offered a decent variety, including fresh fruits and local dishes. Two drawbacks stood out: soundproofing could be improved, as hallway noise was occasionally audible, and the shower’s design led to water splashing. However, these were outweighed by the hotel’s strengths. For budget-conscious travelers, its value-for-money pricing and perks like free luggage storage make it ideal for extended shopping sprees in Ximending. Final Verdict: Hotel Midtown Richardson excels in location and functionality. While not luxurious, it delivers a reliable, clean, and strategically located base for exploring Taipei. Highly recommended for first-time visitors and shopaholics!

Grand Hotel Taipei – A Stay with a View & Secrets Beneath Staying at Grand Hotel Taipei is more than just luxury—it’s an experience. The grand architecture, stunning city views, and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect retreat. But the real surprise? A hidden tunnel beneath the hotel, originally built as an escape route for Chiang Kai-shek. For a small fee, you can explore this secret passage, adding a touch of mystery to your stay. Combine that with sunrise views of Taipei 101 from the balcony, and it’s a stay worth remembering. #GrandHotelTaipei #HiddenTunnels #Taipei101 #TravelTaiwan

At checkin, room was smelling of rotten milk, and it was very cold (18 Celsius). I asked the front desk to change room, they said no, they don’t have any rooms available (there are maybe 100 rooms on my floor alone…) When I told them it’s too cold, they said I should turn off the AC. I said it’s off, they said it must not be, they “advise” me to check again. I checked 3 times, turned it on and off. The front then said they will give me an extra blanket… not once did anyone come to the room to check the smell or AC themselves. Also, they don’t have heating at all, so I had to warm the room with my body temperature only… ***. At night the pipes make noises, and the smell never went away. They also charge to store your luggage. Very disappointed by the hotel cleanliness and service. It was so unaccommodating. They told me it’s a basement room, so the smell is normal. ***… Room has mirrors in the ceiling. I think it’s love hotel.

Second time staying at Hotel Resonance, and the room and staff were great once again :) Definitely would recommend if people are coming to Taipei

The staff was welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. The room was immaculate and very comfortable. I also enjoyed the delicious breakfast each morning and loved the convenient location close to major attractions. Definitely recommended!

The location is convenient, yet quiet and prosperous. The geothermal valley and the museum are within walking distance. The breakfast is very delicious, with both Chinese and Western options. The hot springs are clean and the price/performance ratio is very high. It’s worth staying again.

Very good location, surrounded by public transport & 20mins walk to Ximending night market. Literally opposite Taipei Main Station. The concierge will help you to keep your bag after checkout.

Did a very good with my business trip, and going to stay again with my family, big room, clean , and Japanese standard. Very high score of hotel in taipei for my opinion. And the breakfast was cool with +Variety 🫰🏾

Beautiful big rooms, and beautiful old hotel. Very close to Daan park and famous Michelin star dumplings. Staff were lovely. The room was big, bathroom was great, room cleaned daily, bonus afternoon tea for free. Only down side was the room smelled like cigarette smoke, think it was coming through the cooling system and the place smelt damp.
