I had two people tell me that this hotel was amazing on the inside but old and not too nice on the inside. I’m afraid I have to disagree, it was amazing both inside and out. It’s has clearly been recently redone and the lobby, rooms, and restaurants were all great. We stayed in one of the rooms with a balcony, so I cannot speak to the windowless rooms.. which I suspect may have been the source of the other comments. The property has history, is beautiful, and I highly recommend it.

Hotel itself is beautiful and food served in the hotel building are up scale food, but if you are looking for tranquility area the pool side is the best place where you can lay back and enjoy the scenery peacefully. Love its decorations and its shuttle bus schedules.

The hotel is a really impressive building and well located for views of Taipei, although use of the MRT, buses and bikes is needed to access most of the city. A shuttle bus is provided to guests every ~15 mins to the nearby MRT stations which is great for those carrying suitcases. It's also fairly easy to walk to Jiantian station as long as you are ok with stairs. The Shilin neighbourhood is in walkng distance and has good attractions, food, and a night market Hotel rooms were clean and beds very comfortable, good tea and coffee are provided in rooms, temperature controls were a little tricky to figure out but the air conditioning worked well overall. Baths and showers were great, very clean and large, water pressure and temperature were good The economy tarriff is very well priced and allows access to great amenities such as the outdoor pool (which was a good facility) however there is no window in the room guests must pay for access to the restaurants and breakfasts which are relatively expensive. We went to local restaurants rather than eating at the hotel for this reason - although I understand the food is good! The basement bar and tunnel are good attractions, with an impressive cocktail list including bespoke cocktails made with various Taiwanese ingredients and skilled bartenders. It may be worth spending more money than we did to have a window viewing Taipei and access to hotel breakfast buffet! But overall a very comfortable stay.

Gorgeous and iconic hotel of Taiwan. Stayed only for a night before heading home but made a great impression. It's not hard to say 'wow' to every corner. We booked a suite in the Chi Lin pavillion which is a connecting building from the main Grand Hotel. Much quieter and closer to the valley. Our room has an excellent view of Taipei skyline without the traffic noise that you get from the rooms of the main building. Bed was super comfortanble I had great sleep. The hotel itself is outdated in some areas but that's the charm of it. There are lots to do in the hotel, plenty of restaurants to eat from (albeit pricey), some shops for convenience in the premises. Great hotel! It's a must stay even for just one night.
