MGH Mitsui Garden Hotel Taipei Zhongxiao

Fabulous. Exceptional cleanliness, decor, service, and on a high floor you have wonderful views of the city. The location was very convenient if you plan to visit lots of different neighborhoods in Taipei. The public bath felt like a high-end spa, and the attractive, bright study lounge was a lifesaver when I had work to do. I made the mistake of leaving my eyeglasses in my room, and staff promptly and efficiently arranged to send them back to me in the US.

Great location, clean room and 24/7 desk with helpful staff

Excellent location - you are basically right in the center of Taipei, there is a subway stop connected to 2 lines right outside your front door, and pretty close to lots of buses as well. If that isn't enough, you get access to free parking. Some might argue that there's "nothing nearby", but I liked that: you are a very short trip from major attractions or touristy areas but where you are staying feels more authentic and isn't swarmed with tourists. You are still very close to some nice restaurants, cafes and breakfast spots. Didn't end up making it to the public bath, but the deep one provided in the Deluxe rooms was excellent. The customer service was very excellent and friendly and felt in line with what you would expect at a 4-star in Japan. Room was quiet (we heard nobody on our floor) and they provide you with great curtains blocking out the sun in the morning. Beds were extremely comfortable. While the unorthodox bathroom layout does make you pause a bit if you aren't a couple or family sharing the room, it's not as bad as some have made it out to be - there still is a door to both the shower and toilet areas.

Love the onsen. Very relaxing. Also the hotel is modern and clean.

We stayed in the corner room with amazing views over the city and the mountains. The room was on a smaller side but it had everything we needed and was spotless clean. No noises audible from street outside or from next door neighbours, only the air conditioning was humming. We didn’t have breakfast, but had very good quality tea and coffee in the room. The staff was very friendly and quick to help with all our requests. The location is ideal for exploring the city, the metro station just next to the hotel and we walked a lot as well. Very close to the main station (both MRT and HSR). Definitely recommended.
