Loved our stay at this hotel. It's located a 10-minute walk from the Taitung train station, and the facilities are new, clean and spacious. We loved the big rooms, the nice service staff and all the vegetarian and vegan options at breakfast (congee, veg minced "meat" rice etc). The chef even made us a special breakfast when I indicated on my second booking that we had a special request! I'd love to go back next time!

The hotel staff were enthusiastic and friendly, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. I especially loved the spa facilities; they helped me relax completely! Breakfast was plentiful. The only thing to note is that you'll need to arrange your own transportation. It's definitely worth staying here again!

The biggest selling point is its downtown location, within walking distance to many attractions like Tiehua Village and the night market. The rooms are comfortable and feature electric curtains. There's an infinity pool on the rooftop. Parking spaces are limited, and when it's busy, the elevators can be difficult to catch (they operate with a strange logic).

The hot springs were very clean (though the chlorine smell was a bit strong), and the environment was serene and quiet, making evening strolls very pleasant. The room was also very clean. The only downside was a few too many mosquitoes outdoors, but overall, it was a great experience. If I visit Taitung again, I would definitely stay here.

On my first trip to Chishang, Taitung, I explored Brown Boulevard, rode an electric bicycle to admire the beauty of the rice paddies, enjoyed the cool breeze, ate a Chishang bento, and visited the Jincheng Wu Tree. I also tried Chishang doubao, which was truly delicious. Visiting in March was perfect, not hot at all, just pleasantly cool. I stayed at Papago International Resort Chishang, which has an elegant environment, many facilities, and convenient transportation. It's close to nearby attractions in Chishang, making it an excellent choice for a visit.

The water pressure is excellent, making for a very comfortable shower. The parking lot is very spacious, so you don't need to worry about finding a spot, though please be aware of broken glass on the ground. The beds are not made daily, so please consider your needs. There are fewer staff members at the front desk, so you might not always find someone immediately available.

I stayed for 3 days, from check-in to check-out, and received professional care. It was thoroughly relaxing and restful. Breakfast was wonderful, and I also tried the Cantonese dim sum served at the Chinese restaurant in the evening. The food was very satisfying. Coming back from Orchid Island to Taitung felt like heaven.
