Taitung City hotels & places to stay

My family and I were visiting from the US. I chose this particular Naruwan hotel for it's amenities that accommodate families with small children. As for location, you are just a 5 minute drive from the Taitung airport or Railway station. The hotel provides complimentary shuttle to the airport and railway station if you arrange ahead of time. The game room is excellent for children of all ages. There are video games, foos ball, table tennis, billiards, a toddler playground, and basketball video game etc. My son had blast every time! I would give the staff 10 stars if I could. Very friendly and accommodating. From the front desk, to bell hop, housekeeping to the restaurant staff, everybody was helpful and had a great attitude. Our room came with complimentary buffet everyday. The selection was great and most importantly was delicious. I ordered from the cafe a few times as we were too tired to go out to eat. The food was good too. Also around the corner from the hotel are a few local places to eat. One vegetarian spot was clean and delicious. Plenty of boba and tea shops as well as a Family mart and 7-11. My only disappointment would have been the hot spring facility. Two of the 3 sections for the hot spring were cold. The only hot tubs where in the back of the facility and I believe the temperature gages were not accurate. The two tubs we went in showed similar readings around 34.4 Celsius, but felt completely different in temps. I prefer hot baths so I was a bit chilly. My husband prefers luke warm water so it was perfect for him. Due to the weather we did not get to enjoy the pool, but it looked nice and one of the few hotels in Taitung with a pool. Overall I could not be happier with the hotel selection. Should they ever remodel the pool or health spa, this would definitely be a 5 star resort across the board. I will definitely be back if I'm in Taitung!

We stayed at this hotel on a Tuesday night and it was as advertised. No surprises. We didn't take advantage of them but they do offer free bicycles for use for guests. The beds were comfortable. The sheets were clean. The breakfast lacked some choices but it was fine. (Some other hotels offer noodles which we like.) The staff were friendly. We were very happy staying here. As a bonus, when we were there, the air force base nearby was practicing touch and go landings and take-offs so we got to see that. Depending on the season, it'd be better for you to have a car as the hotel is on the edge of central Taitung. However, if it's warm, the free bicycles would be perfect to get around. We didn't see a lot of taxi cabs around so the bikes may be the only way to get around.

This is a brand new hotel downtown. Very convenient to the bus station and many trails behind the hotel. A lot of restaurants in the area, even a McDonalds and Starbucks next door. I arrived early so room wasn’t ready so no problem, they took my bag and I went to the National Museum of Prehistory. Taxi was about NT$250. There was plenty of staff to check in and even though they struggled somewhat with English they were sincere in wanting to please. There was a sheet (in Chinese) with all hotel activities, such as happy hour, and pool operating hours. It would have been nice if this sheet was translated into English. My room was ready when I returned, but it would have been nice to have my bag waiting for me in my room. The room was spotless with many details. Such as the Taitung rice sample. Was well designed. It was lacking a work desk. Maybe larger rooms have one. There is a rooftop pool (unheated) with million-dollar views of the mountains and ocean on other side. Really beautiful. There is also a lounge there but wasn’t open. That would be a great place for a drink. They have a free shuttle that can pick you up or drop off at the train station or airport since they are some distance away. Call first to reserve. If there was a sour note, it would be the buffet breakfast. It wasn’t up to the quantity and quality of other breakfasts I’ve had in Taiwan. I hope they can improve that. In summary, a new hotel in great location with great views from the roof. I think this hotel is setting the new standard of hotels in Taitung.

I highly recommend anyone staying in Taitung City to stay at this hotel. It is in the heart of the city, so you are within walking distance of EVERYTHING. The hotel itself is quite pretty, and check-in was fast and easy. It was very clean as well. The rooms are comfortable with large, spacious bathrooms. The wifi works fast, and is easy to access. The breakfast is delicious and offers a great variety of Eastern and Western cuisine. I think this is one of the best hotels to stay at in Taitung City, and when I checked the rates were even cheaper than other hotels, so it is well worth it. TIP -Be sure to check out Kasa Cafe, a short walk from the hotel. They are open for drinks (both alcoholic and non alcoholic) until 2am! A very cool, hip place to hang out.

Great location just beside the bus terminal where I took the bus to Taitung TRA station, sanxiantai, luyehgaotai, duoliang, taimali, and many more places. Awesome location for travellers using public transport. Room is clean. 4 bunk beds (8 beds in total) with a toilet in the room which is more convenient. The hotel also provided bottled water, towel, body wash, shampoo and toothbrush. This is one of the best dormitories that I have stayed in Taiwan!

I strong recommend MATA be a Star Hotel since they provided excellent services during my stay in Taitung. It's so perfect hotel for everything as below: Money: Very reasonable. Location: Nearby the Taitung Forest Park and bus stop which very convenience. Cleanliness: The hotel is a new building around 4~5 years, rooms are maintained good system and light is shining. Staff: All staffs provided good services by themselves, especially, (1) The chef explained the how to cook the food for us. (2) The receiptionist presents the environment and provided map and tourism spot. Facilities: Free bicycle for customer. Result: Excellent hotel in Taitung.

Excellent location right on a main street of Taitung City. With free bike loans from the hotel, you can ride to most sites in under 10 minutes. Room design is excellent with attention to design. Love the separation of toilet and shower spaces and the 2 sinks! Quality fixtures (Ovotoilet) and appliances (Panasonic flatscreen tv, bidet, hair dryer, etc. ). Other details that were appreciated: blackout curtains, nighttime valence lighting, enough sockets to charge multiple devices, 4 bottles of water (2 already in the fridge waiting for you), a ledge over the toilet paper to place your phone, full-length mirror, embedded lighting in mirror for doing makeup, and lots of seating. The only real disappointment was the quality of the breakfast--quite mediocre. Since a high-quality breakfast buffet is difficult to maintain, perhaps switch to an a la carte model?

the food is used lots local raw materials. can see their sincere for the presentation of the foods. menu everyday is different as we stay two days there. we enjoy every minutes whiles step in to the hotel. the staff and the lady boss is very welcoming. appreciated that very much. free laundry, free bicycle, free snack, free tour adv, what else you can ask.. will be back to this hotel if back to taitung again. thank you.

My initial QUAD room was a joke... with not enough room to even walk in for 4x people. Had to go up to the front desk and address this issue, whereby I was given the chance to upgrade for a reasonable fee in TWD. The hotel is well kept, and clean, but the room decor was a bit off. The bed was comfortable enough. The shower has nice water pressure for our 7th floor room. There were no personal safe. They seemed to be in the middle of renovations when I was there, so seeing that openly wasn't good. They had a mounted TV with choices of local TV programs. Free bottled waters were included, however cleaning staff left big boxes of water bottles unattended in the hallways. All the daily toiletry items were provided (toothbrush/paste, shaving kit, etc). The instruction sheet in our room said that there was wireless internet access, and it worked, albeit intermittently. There were plenty of desktop computers in the business center on the 1st floor lobby with free internet access. We also took advantage of the free laundry washers and drying machines, with laundry detergents provided as well! Aces! The service overall was very good, and the hotel staff were very accommodating. There were plenty of local restaurants nearby, including a fancy looking (by Taitung standard) steak house 5 minute away. A Family Mart convenience store is located next door, only a few steps away. The included daily breakfast was surprisingly good with variety of food items. There is also a free midnight snack service that is overwhelming good, you don't have to step outside for dinner. Kindness Taitung warrants a repeat stay, and the service will win you over and over again!

The hot pools here in the heart of Taiwan hot springs country are heavenly. The outdoor pool was also perfect in April for laps. Rooms are spacious and lovely and well equipped. Staff are fun, courteous, and helpful. The one inconvenience is for those who actually want to vist Taitung. A taxi ride to Taitung is between 400 and 500 nt . However, a short train ride is less expensive and staff will drive you to the train. Breakfast may not satisfy all Westerners but the French toast was tasty as were the Taiwanese noodles and veggies.There weren't any Western restaurants near by but if you enjoy Taiwanese food thete ate many wothon a five to ten Minute walk. Use by busloads of tourists may affect your stay depending on the time of year but low season was fine in this lovely new hotel. A small gym is also available

After my great experience with this chain of hostels in Taichung I didn't doubt in choosing them for my stay in Taitung and it was a good decision. It didn't feel like a hostel since there were no dormitories (to my knowledge) but still is a very reasonably priced budget hotel. Room was nice, bedding was good and same for the mattress. The common space and kitchen were great and the washing machine and dryer were big, good and cheap. Also, the staff was very friendly and answered patiently and with good attitude to all my questions. Only complains would be that there are no bus stops in a 800m radius or so and that in the mini room the shower is a little uncomfortable (I should have expected the second one since the name implies it, but still).

We arrived in Taitung in the late afternoon and left for Green Island the next morning. Summer of Moonlight looks amazing from outside and it's very clean and tidy inside. They provide free bikes so we rode about 20 minutes to the night market to have dinner. The host was kind enough to drive us to Fugang Port, and they even offered to send our luggage to Taitung Station (10 min drive from the hotel) so we didn't need to carry it to Green Island. The bed was comfy and the breakfast was beyond our expectations!

The hotel is located about 20 minutes from Taitung Railway Station. You can arrange hotel to pick you up if you make booking in advance before you arrive. The room has plenty of space with window which you can see the outside clearly. One particular feature of this hotel is that an emergency equipment is availble for hotel guest to run away alive in case of fire occurs. A hinger with string is stored inside room for this purpose.

Booked this place for a night after 4 days of cycling from Hualien to Taitung due to the theme of the lodging. When we reach there, we confirmed that this was definitely a right choice as we feel very at ease and comfortable with the layout of the books in the lobby (really feel like a library!!). Room wise was clean, neat and big! Definitely not as cramp as those in Taipei. We will definitely come back to Taitung and stay in this wonderful lodging in our next trip to Taiwan.

The hotel were located right at the centre of Taitung city. We mentioned the chinese name of this hotel, and the taxi driver from Taitung Station knew how to get there. Hotel lobby and lift were very well decorated with creative designs. Room was equipped with modern furniture and designs. Hotel staffs were very friendly to share the must visit places near the hotel. Bicycles can be borrowed from the counter to freely explore. Hotel breakfast buffet had a huge variety with many different packet drinks! Overall, a great hotel in Taitung City to explore the food places, and Tiehua Night Market. Easy for tour group drivers to pick up.

The rooms were small, but was ok for the price. Parking lot is located behind the hotel, and they give you a map on how to get to it. The location is right in the center of Taitung which is convenient for night market nearby and restaurants and shops. The breakfast offered had good selection of food. Don't really have any complaints since we only stayed 1 night and the price for the room was not expensive. If you do stay longer in Taitung, the room might be an issue as it does feel small.
