Yilan

Yilan is truly Taipei's back garden. The hotel is located in Luodong Township, within walking distance of the railway station, transit station, and Luodong Night Market. The hotel rooms feature hot spring bathtubs, offering an exceptionally relaxing bathing experience with views of the Pacific Ocean and the expansive Lanyang Plain. When the weather is nice, you can even catch a glimpse of Turtle Island in the distance. The Starlight Bar on the 24th floor offers phenomenal views.

I appreciate the hotel's efforts to arrange the requested room type and preferred floor level. The welcome drinks and snacks in the lobby were a thoughtful touch, and the seating area was spacious and comfortable. Almost every staff member provided excellent service, making for a very pleasant overall stay. On the morning after check-in, I suggested to a restaurant server not to be too quick in clearing the table. The next morning, I noticed the server had clearly adjusted their pace, which shows the hotel listens to guest feedback and makes improvements, and that's commendable. However, the hotel's parking lot entrance and exit are located in an alley near a fork in the road, which can easily cause congestion when vehicles are entering, exiting, or passing each other. I recommend the hotel arrange for a guide during peak hours of vehicle traffic. The default temperature of the in-room refrigerator was not cold enough; drinks and food placed inside felt like they were at room temperature the next day. The bathroom drainage design might not be ideal, as water from the shower could splash towards the bathroom door, or soap suds could spread to the door's edge. Without a sufficient threshold, water could easily overflow into the room. I also suggest clearer labeling for the toiletries; for example, the hand soap and lotion by the sink were clearly labeled. Finally, a small suggestion regarding power outlets: since many electronic devices today charge via USB, I only observed one USB charging port in the room. I recommend installing USB power outlets near the bedside, and it would be even better to have one by the sofa as well.

This stay was absolutely fantastic! I wholeheartedly recommend it to families with children or anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. I would definitely love to visit again! Complimentary Afternoon Tea and Late-Night Snacks: The hotel's food selection was incredibly generous, with a rich buffet available from afternoon tea to late-night snacks. There were salads, soups, and cooked dishes galore, and items were replenished quickly, so you could always refuel! Facilities and Kids' Playroom: The playroom was a paradise for children, featuring a Switch and a PS4. The kids didn't want to leave, allowing adults to relax. Hot Spring Facilities: The hot spring and pool areas were clean and comfortable. The stone-built hot tub in the room was also excellent; a soak left me feeling completely refreshed and relaxed. Guest Room Space: The room design was thoughtfully crafted, with a warm and comfortable wooden aesthetic. The space was generous and kept very clean.

The Lakeshore Hotel Yilan is a bit out of the way, and if you don't have your own car, transportation isn't very convenient. There aren't many shops nearby either. Compared to other Lakeshore hotels, it lacks hot springs and sauna facilities, which is a bit of a shame. The breakfast is excellent, but the evening snacks are quite ordinary.

This is our second time staying at Hotel Royal Jiaoxi, and while the food quality remains consistent, it feels like the service has slipped a bit. We had originally reserved brunch for our second day, but later wanted to change it to breakfast. When we inquired, we found out they hadn't even registered us for brunch the day before! We also booked a fascial release class, but due to time constraints, we cancelled it immediately. However, upon check-out, they tried to charge us an extra fee. Although it was waived after we brought it up, it seems there are some internal communication issues, as things we registered or cancelled were not properly executed! Additionally, I stayed in the Quad Room; the mattress was very thick and comfortable to sleep on, but the pillows were too soft, offering no neck support at all, which I feel needs improvement.

Evergreen Resort Hotel Jiaoxi offers a comfortable environment with clean, spacious rooms. The hot springs are very relaxing, the meals are abundant and delicious, and the staff is friendly and attentive. The overall stay was fantastic, and it is definitely worth visiting again.

This was my first time staying at Kirin Hotel, and overall, I felt it offered great value for the price. The room had a very large bathtub, the facilities were well-equipped, and the rooftop naked hot spring was fantastic, offering a wonderful view of the night scenery. The freshly brewed beef soup at breakfast was super delicious, sweet, and flavorful. It's truly a great place for a vacation where you can just stay in the hotel and not go out.

I was very satisfied with my stay at the hotel this time. Although the hotel is a bit far from the station, they offer a shuttle bus, which is quite convenient. The room was very spacious, and the accommodation package included many activities. We could try on yukata, go zip-lining, experience making wagashi (Japanese sweets), do DIY crafts, enjoy the public bath, and even see cute animals. The activities were very enriching, and we wouldn't get bored spending the whole day in the resort. There was also a late-night snack available. The staff were all very kind and enthusiastic. Overall, it was a lot of fun, and I would like to visit again.

The accommodation area is quite large, consisting of traditional two-story houses. However, the facilities inside the rooms are not old; they are comfortable. It's a perfect blend of new and old, tradition and modernity. Guests can freely enter and exit the park during their stay. Although all the shops close at night, exploring the National Center for Traditional Arts at night offers a unique experience. While the breakfast area isn't as spacious as those in Tainan, all the classic Lakeshore Hotel dishes are available, offering an unforgettable taste!
