Stayed here for 2 nights. Really nice hotel with particularly well kept and beautiful gardens/landscaping. Definitely focused on local tourism. Almost all staff had no English - which is fine as fair enough we are in Taiwan - however as I only have basic mandarin it means if there is an issue (which we had a few) it can’t be discussed.
+
-Spectacular views
-really nice pool and indoor facilities (jacuzzi/steam room etc)
-the gardeners, these men were the friendliest people working at the hotel, always cheerful and smiling and saying hello
-Ocean Park was good fun, nothing in English (which is fine you can work it out)
-
-10% service charge on everything
-Dining Options (buffet is only option)
-dinner buffet was NT880 per person (“including alcohol”)
(I’m a vegetarian) and had the “vegetarian fried rice and quinoa” which I ate and it had sausage meat through out it
- once the small amount of alcoholic drinks ran out (less than 15 for over 30 people) they were not replaced for at least 30 mins - we had left after this time
-small amount of lunch options
-I ordered a vegetarian soup - WHICH HAD CHICKEN IN IT! (Due to note above re English there was nothing I could say)
-we also ordered a cappuccino. Which was NT198!!! The cappuccino was served almost cold in a really small cup and made from a machine. A cappuccino made by a barista in London, New York or Paris would not have been this price!
-general staff sentiment, whilst no staff were rude or unpleas
