Hsinchu Holidays from AU$833

Great staff in a great location. Hotel a bit dated but everything works! Had a marvelous time.

The Mayer Inn is a well traveled hotel in that there is a lot of guests that come in/out frequently which was noticeable with the stack of check in forms at the desk. The property is conveniently located across from the main metro station which also houses the bus station and high speed rail line. This is also a negative because there is always a lot of activity around the hotel and the atmosphere looks/feels dirty. The floors of the building for the hotel need renovated. The carpeting and colors need to be refreshed. The walls between the rooms are very thin so can hear conversations, light switches being flicked on/off, shower running — the floors may have been office space renovated to hotel? The USB ports in the room by the bed didn’t work and the only other would sometimes flicker on/off. The drain in the shower was also so slow draining had to keep turning the water off. Also, thought there was no hair dryer in the room since not in the bathroom under the sink — rather it was in the desk drawer not close to bathroom. The kettle in the room is convenient, but the plug only fits into the outlet in the bathroom. The bed was okay — maybe a thicker mattress pad for softness would have been nice. Also, most rooms are interior rooms so no windows — again was office space converted? Overall, not sure I would recommend.

Room clean , staff are really good and nice . Lots shopping and dinner around .

City Suites scores very highly for location. It’s in Datong District, only about a 5- to 7-minute walk from Beimen MRT station. It’s also reasonably close to Taipei Main Station. There are convenience stores (like 7-Eleven) nearby, and plenty of restaurants & cafés within walking distance. The rooms are modern, clean, and generally well maintained, but no windows. I find the mattress was a bit firmer than what I was expecting but it was fine. No strong sound insulation, you can hear people from the next room. Room was rather specious so if you travel with a large suitcase that is the place. Check in was smooth and Staff is helpful! Housekeeping is generally good but noticed quite some bit of dust behind the tv and beneath the bed so I had the impression these areas are not cleaned much! in conclusion is a solid choice if you’re staying in Taipei for a few nights and want somewhere reasonable clean, central, and convenient. It gives you good access to transport and local amenities, making it easy to explore. If you’re okay with compact rooms and aren’t expecting luxury extras, you’ll likely be satisfied.

Friendly staff and convenient location
