Chiayi

Highly recommended - felt safe all throughout the crazy windy bus ride to and from Alishan! Thank you as well to our tour guide, Henry! Prepare to go up and down some stairs. It’s quite a fast-paced trip but still enjoyed time with nature.

we had a nice trip with stay at Alishan Gou hotel. fetch from our hotel to Alishan train station. train uphill is a 3 hours ride. toilet on the train is rather rocky, is a fun experience though. the hotel is good just that hot water service for bathing is from 5pm to 11 pm only. hot and cold water dispenser available at hotel lobby. this hotel is good cos just outside the hotel is the giant trees trial. our lady tour guide at giant tree trial is v caring, knowledgeable and intro us to a lot of plants. shuttle service to hotel is every half an hour. morning sunrise need to take another train to 祝山。train station is just outside hotel convenience. downhill to 奋起湖 by minivan. bento is ok, but must try the mini donut there. Our tour guide downhill very considerate, caring and good driver. Hinoki village has some great photos. thank you to all our 3 tour guides driver to the station, at giant forest trail and downhill. would recommend this half free and easy trip to everyone visiting Alishan

Our tour guide, Max, was really awesome! He made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip and was always happy to help. He was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience more enjoyable. We really appreciated how well he took care of everyone and made sure we had a great time. Highly recommend Max if you’re looking for a fun and comfortable tour experience!

Located in an alley next to the night market, it offers a quiet retreat amidst the hustle and bustle. There's a Watsons right at the alley's entrance, which is quite convenient. The room was clean, but the hallway air conditioning wasn't very strong, making it a bit stuffy (in late May). The self-service breakfast didn't have a huge selection, but it was very good, with even two hot dishes and hot soup for the Chinese options. There are no staff members at night, but there is security. Water dispensers are available on the first and third floors, and bottled water is also provided in the rooms. The bathroom does not have a separate wet and dry area, so caution is advised when using it. Being close to the night market has its pros and cons; it's very easy to find food, but during the day, Cultural Road inevitably has various smells. This accommodation is suitable for travelers seeking a simple, clean, and quiet stay, and it's quite comfortable for solo travelers.

After booking, we informed the hotel that a birthday celebrant would be staying that month. The front desk arranged for a 4-inch cake to be placed in the room's refrigerator, which was a pleasant surprise upon check-in. The gym, afternoon tea, and breakfast were all excellent; breakfast was much better than expected. A 4-star hotel certainly doesn't disappoint. We would love to stay here again on our next visit to Chiayi.

I've stayed here twice now, and both times have been great. The rooms are clean inside and out, and having the night market right next door is the best part. Plus, there's the amazing rice noodle soup across the street, and the dog at the dessert shop next door!

We stayed here while visiting the Meteor Garden filming locations, Alishan, and Hinoki Village. The hotel is very accessible, it's conveniently located near the bus station, making it easy to get around. The room was comfortable and clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful. A great base for exploring the area. Would definitely recommend for the convenient location!

The hotel has a wealth of facilities, so kids will never be bored! First, they can play in the game room, then ride the carousel, play in the sand, and throw balls on the lawn. Back in the room, there's even a slide to keep the fun going. Before checking out, we also rode the mini train, creating wonderful memories.

The accommodation was great, located in Chiayi City. The room had a bathtub and a separate wet/dry area, which was very nice. However, the cleaning staff always wore headphones when they came, and it seemed like I had to repeat things several times for them to hear me. When we left, they left a rag on our table, and I wasn't sure what it was for. I hope they can pay more attention next time.
