TL;DR: Exceptional stay! World-class staff, spotless rooms, free laundry, and delicious daily breakfast. Dandy Hotel offers boutique hospitality at a very reasonable price. ​Pros: ​World-Class Staff: The absolute highlight of the stay! Huge shoutout to Ting, Hui, April, Kim, and Alex for being exceptionally kind, welcoming, and helpful. Their communication was proactive before I even arrived. ​Room & Housekeeping: Extremely clean and comfortable with excellent AC, humidity control, blackout curtains, and a quiet fridge. Housekeeping does a fantastic job and easily accommodates your schedule. ​Great Amenities: Free guest laundry, strong shower water pressure, great bidets, and free bottled water/snacks throughout the day. ​Delicious Breakfast: A great mix of local Taiwanese and Western staples with daily variety. ​Prime Location: Walking distance to the metro/MRT station, local restaurants, and shopping. Safe, clean, and vibrant neighborhood. ​Cons: ​Peak-Hour Wi-Fi: Signal can slow down slightly during high-usage evening hours, but overall manageable. ​Tips for Future Guests: ​Noise Expectations: Despite some reviews noting noise, my room was completely quiet after 10 PM—quieter than my apartment back in the US! ​Local Climate: Taipei is humid and tropical. You may see a stray bug or minor cosmetic hairline cracks from local earthquakes—this is standard in Taiwan, not neglect. The hotel actively performs pest control and maintenance.

Ms. Kim was very kind and helpful. She gave us a lot of ideas for sightseeing in Taipei and also in Hong Kong (our next stay). The hotel was conveniently located near a subway stop, drug store, and local restaurants. Overall the staff were very friendly, and the provided breakfast had a mix of Western, Taiwanese, and Japanese style food. The rooms were compact, but all the bathroom amenities were clean, comfortable, and easy to use.

I stayed at this hotel in 2015, 2016, and 2017. Each stay was a pleasure, and the staff were always kind, friendly, and helpful. That’s exactly why I chose Dandy Hotel again this time—and it didn’t disappoint. As soon as I arrived around 10:00 p.m., I noticed the check-in counter was lined with instant ramen cups. I asked why, and the staff smiled and explained that they provide free ramen for guests checking in late, so they have something to eat after arriving. I thought that was such a thoughtful touch. Later, I asked one of the staff members if there was a good place to eat within a five-minute walk. He actually stepped outside with me and pointed out a nearby noodle shop. It was exactly what I was looking for. Moments like that are why I keep coming back. The staff consistently go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. The location is also excellent. It’s just a short walk from Zhongshan Station and only about 10 minutes from Taipei Main Station by taxi. The rooms are always clean, and the complimentary breakfast is genuinely good, with plenty of options to choose from. I’ll definitely be back again.

Great location and nice and pretty unit. Definitely worth the price we pay for almost 10 days of staying will definitely come back again

This is a great hotel. The staff and location are great. I gave them 5 stars. However, avoid Room 207. It is a fire escape room, and there is a massive light in there that shows where the fire escape equipment is. You cannot turn it off and it will affect tour sleep. Most rooms do not seem to have it but 207 does.

Very convenient location. Comfortable hotel and great to have laundry facilities and breakfast on site.

This was our second visit in 6 months and we felt welcomed back home by all the staff! Everyone remembered us and one of the staff even showed us a photo she took with my uncle the last time we were here. I’ve never stayed at a hotel where I felt so welcomed. They left us a welcome back banner and handwritten welcome card when we arrived. You can’t go wrong with the Dandy hotel Tianjin. The location is fantastic- close to MRT and food and shopping everywhere nearby. Zhongshan is a very hip area and convenient to getting to many other locations in Taipei. The hotel is clean and cozy with a tasty breakfast and free laundry machines. There is actually an award winning beef soup noodle place literally next door which placed in the top 3 in a 2025 competition. (Try the tomato beef noodle with grilled beef). My husband was practicing speaking beginning Chinese and he talked the ears off of the breakfast staff each morning. We remember them fondly from our last visit and they were so kind to indulge him. We gave one of the staff a small gift and I couldn’t believe and felt bad that she even went out of her way and bought us a box of pineapple cakes from a famous local bakery. Everyone from the front desk to the cleaning staff and breakfast staff pay attention to details and make you feel welcome. I highly recommend the Dandy Tianjin if you want you have a personal experience.

Perfect stay in every way. Delicious breakfast, great snacks throughout the day, comfortable room/bed, and most importantly kind and generous staff. Would stay again for sure.

What an amazing hotel!! Wonderful staff, very clean and comfortable rooms, and excellent breakfast. There is also free laundry facilities within the hotel itself.

Clean room. Helpful staff. Great location.
