The room itself is as advertised. The location provides easy access to shopping, food, and public transportations. However, we had to contact the hotel front desk several times to receive cleaning services after 5pm during our stay. The staffs were friendly and responsive, but guests should not have to do this. Also, the hotel appears to rent rooms by hours for 'couples' short stays', and the sound insulation between rooms was terrible. We were able to hear 'noises' from their 'hourly guests' several times during our stay. The hotel is at no fault for doing business their way. However, Expedia do a better job screening hotels. In fact, Expedia should seriously consider putting up warnings on hotels offering 'hourly stays' on their site. Overall, we would definitely consider hotels in this area, but we would likely not return to these types of hotels.

This hotel is not convenient at all and in fact very annoying. I took my family and all our luggage to the address and we couldn’t get in. Then we had to find out that the office lobby is across the street. When I got there I had to put a $1,000ntd deposit for each room, which I’ve never had to do before and makes no sense really since you get it back the next day before they even check for damages lol. Then they give us a confirmation number for our rooms. Then we have to cross the street again and because this lobby can take your money but can’t give you a key card. You go to the other building across the street and use a complicated annoying self checkout machine which you have to do for each room. And since you need the card to run the electricity in the room one person can’t leave with the key while the other person stays, and of course you can’t ask for two keys since it’s a machine. It was bay far the most annoying hotel experience I’ve ever had. Oh yeah and no breakfast, which they said was “because Covid”, total BS.

It was just the worst experience ever. When I got to the hotel, the hotel told me my reservation was canceled even though I never canceled it. Not sure if this was caused by a bug on Expedia side or a bug on hotel's system, but regardless, the hotel made me book a new reservation which ended up being more expensive than my original reservation for the same room. And when I came back to the states, the hotel did not cooperate well for the refund process and it was just a nightmare. Also when I checked in, I saw trash and hair in trash cans and the room was overall not so clean. No breakfast was provided but only positive side was that it was fairly close to the main station.

Called in to say checking in after hours but property was closed when I arrived at 11pm. If my friend from Taiwan was not there to call the property and figure out you check in across the street I would have been lost.

my advise Don't stay here
the check in was slow. i booked for journey hotel which doesn't have a check in went to b7 on the other side and I was told that the room would be here not where I booked a room. at 16.00 I was told to wait for my room. the check in starts 15.00 which is very late compared to other countries and yet the room wasn't ready. the room smelt damp all the time. I had a lovely view. the breakasfat is the biggest joke. the toasts were disgusting. I couldn't eat it. no selection. so I booked a room with breakfast and didn't get any so had to go somewhere else and purchase the food. I'm not happy with the fact that my hotel was changed without my prior knowledge and the fact that you don't have breakfast although you advertise room with breakfast. the hotel reply was "we’re astonished" and "We’re still hoping to serve you again. Thank you" so as you can see they don't know what a customer service is just like in all China.

I have read good review about this hotel so i decided to booked it , i stayed 4 nights , was glad that i was given a free upgrade I heard a lot of good review about 24hrs food bars , it’s a free service for guest who staying here , however when i took a few packets of snack , i over heard staff saying “ she took a lot” The room was spacious, clean 我每天都會要求room cleaning ,每天都整理的很乾淨、窗戶、枕頭都會放好、即使看到浴室有放了一塊肥皂、清潔工人也會再放一塊新的在籃子裡、可是不知道為什麼到了最後一晚、可能知道我隔天要退房了吧?所以肥皂沒更新、窗戶也沒把窗簾拉開、枕頭也亂放了 、有點小失望 Location is great , in between of 2 station, lots of food nearby Overall i still recommend this hotel :)

Beauty Hotel Indeed.
I will definitely come back again to Beauty Hotel. The staff is very friendly, greeted by cleaning crew every morning I bumped into them. Check in and out was very quick and easy. The room felt like if it was just updated with comfy beds, clean remodeled nice bathroom. 10min walking distance to train or bus stops. Stores very near by. The whole 9 yards. You can’t go wrong picking this hotel. My friends and I had a great time.

Near Metro station
Free breakfast in coffee shop below. Choice of American or Asian. Near metro, so you can ride to and fro to Taoyuan Airport. Lot of shopping around the area. Many eating places. But most places don't take Mastercard and Visa. They want Unionpay and Alipay. Being from the US you must bring cash (NT).

Used to be a good hotel
I stayed here for 3 nights for my business trip. Location is convenient. And it's located in pretty impressed area that have many book stores. Some minutes to walk to each MRT stations: Ximen, Taipei Main and NTU hospital Station. Hotel room is clean, even some rooms are small though it's still acceptable. Staff are very nice and helpful. They can speak several languages; Chinese, English and Japanese at least. Recently the reception desk of this hotel was merged with another sister hotel. It's inconvenient for me. When I wanted to leave my luggage, I had to walk across the road. You can have a breakfast at ground floor though do not expect too much. It's just a quick meal set to fill your stomach a bit. Regarding laundry, as it's described in their website, they offers laundry service with charge though, they don't have that service actually. In my case, I went to the coin laundry around 10 mins by walk to do wash/dry my clothes.

The hotel is fantastic. I made a 2 nights booking with hotel.com but amended it to 1 night Bec of changed of plan. To my horror when I arrived at the hotel at 9pm, I was told that my booking has been cancelled instead of amended. Hotel.com sent me an email regarding the change of booking but they cancelled it instead. However the hotel is kind enough to give me a room after an hour of waiting while they sort out with hotel.com. I have another booking with the hotel 2 days later and they upgraded me and apologised for the inconvenience caused and I am impressed with the way they handled the whole matter. Whereas till not I have not heard from hotel.com despite me sending an email to them and the hotel contacting them. Very disappointed with hotel.com as they almost left me with no room despite a pre paid room.

OK for a budget option.
A budget hotel set amongt the hostels on Chongqing road. Definitely cheap. Fun and funky vibe cafe where a quite good breakfast is served. Rooms are tiny and despite paying more for a room with a window, I got a windowless room (which I really really hate). Vibe / decor are nice. Neighborhood is meh and noisy (busy roads, near Taipei Main station)

Good location but disappointing experience
I have booked the grand double room as I have read that the rooms are generally smaller. However, the room that I got was not the same as the one that was shown on the web. While I understand that pictures are for illustrations, I have specifically requested for a room with windows and there was no feedback from the hotel prior to the trip. When I checked in, the only window was in the toilet which is as good as not having one as I will not be able to draw up the blinds at all. I called the reception and she said that the hotel was fully booked so the earliest they can arrange for another room would be tomorrow. I asked about it the next day and the reception said that there was still no room available and insisted that someone from the hotel must have responded to my request at the time of booking. I told her I did not get any replies before the trip. After she ran through her records, there was obviously no email from them so she gave a half hearted apology and said that there was a different type of room located on the 8th floor (the lift only serves up till the 7th floor).She told me if I decide not to take the room, she will jot down my request and the earliest that they can arrange for another room will be the next day. My friend & I decided that since we will be there for 5 nights, we might as well just wait.However, for the next three days, no one updated about the status of the room at all.It's ok if there was no room but please have the basic courtesy to inform us.
