Liwu Hotel Taroko

Very close to the park. Excellent views of the mountains. Staff very helpful.

About 1/2 of the rooms at Liwu are hostel style, and the other 1/2 are hotel rooms. It's very reasonably priced, the rooms are very spacious, and the breakfast was quite good (buffet style). There aren't a lot of restaurants within walking distance for dinner, especially after around 8pm. The owner and staff are very hospitable.

Enjoyed our stay here. Breakfast was good with a nice view. Staff was very nice and helped us find a tour guide that took us around the park and town. Would stay here again as it’s very close to taroko

This is by far the best place I have stayed at so far in Taiwan. The hosts are lovely. It is more a mini hotel than a a home stay. Super clean and quiet. Beautifully appointed. And an excellent price. The hosts recommended a loca hotpot place for dinner - again superb! I would totally recommend staying here.

The property is quite old and there was a lot of flies and insects in our room. The breakfast and service was good.

On the plus side, this hotel is well-located at the entrance to the park, economical, clean, provides the basics. Minus side: very uneven service, worn facilities with lower two floors dank with smelly drains, no lobby and few amenities (no tea kettle or soap in the rooms). The manager is very helpful but isn't around much, while the young woman speaks no English and ignores guests. If you just need a clean bed for one night, it gets the job done.

When we arrived in the afternoon, we were received well and given all the information. Liwu hotel is very close to Taroko National Park, that is why we chose it . It is in a small town so there are very few options to eat in the town. You can get to the hotel by bus from the Xiechen station. The hotel staff is very helpful Room was clean and had all the necessary amenities except in room coffee. Breakfast was good. he room we had, had a nice view.

One of the very few hotels where i was not disappointed, our room was way bigger and spacious than how it appeared in the picture. Breakfast was nice, clean space and friendly staff. Highly recommended for couples, friends and family alike.

Basic hotel close to Taroko National Park. Receptionist was talking on a mobile/cell when I arrived and long after that. Had no chance to talk to her, she just gave room key. Breakfast basic, but will do for free. I stayed in triple room, it was functional, everything worked but had a feel of being tired. If I was staying in the area again, I would choose something nicer unless budget was the only criteria. There a fuel station and couple of shops by the hotel. Don't confuse the place with Taroko LiWuZuoCun B&B, which is on the other side of the river. I drove there first using Google Maps and LiWu Hotel key word.

Clean large room. Super breakfast with lots of variety. Dinner was delicious too. Convenient location. Bus stop outside. Less than 10 min walk to visitor center.

It is fine for what we need, just a place to sleep, the room is quite nice and clean, the bathroom is not so good as when you shower, it made the toilet and everything wet as well, as it is all in one area. The bed is big, breakfast is ok to start the day. The location is next to Taroko bus stop so it is great, and walking distance to Taroko entrance and visitors center. It more like the hostel. We took the train from Taipei to Xincheng station and took 302bus to Taroko bus stop, then walk backwards about 30m to the hotel.

Love that it is only about 1km away from the Taroko National Park Visitor Center and right opposite the bus stop. Love the big beds as well!

Pleasant hotel, friendly staff, very convenient for Taroko Gorge park

It is a hostel with big beds and big room but not comfortable bed. The bathroom is basic. There were not much eating places nearby.

It was easy to recognize and therefore get to via taxi and language barrier. Extremely close to Taroko Park HQ which was fantastically helpful in our trekking about. Check-in was a breeze and they even let us check in early which I love. This place was no nonsense, but a little too much that way. I felt like I didn't want to walk around in my clean bare feet on the room floor but felt the same way about the slippers provided. :/ There was lots of English translation printed around which was great and helpful, especially because we got very bland and minimal interaction from the staff. Not rude, just not much of anything. The breakfast was not awesome. Very Taiwanese which is ok if you go for that meat floss, tofu, and rice pudding thing. For the rest of us, there are a few steam buns and toast 'n' jam. But, they had some of the best single-packet instant milk tea I've ever had! and I've had a few. My family and I tried to find the same kind from the grocery stores in another part of Taiwan but no such luck! I plan to keep my eye out.

Quiet, even though it’s on quite a busy road. Staff, and the owner, were very helpful. Overall, the food was good, although breakfast didn’t seem to be very inspiring. Large room and all the usual facilities you’d expect, with good house-keeping.

This is the closest hotel to the entrance to Toroko Gorge National Park. This is certainly not a 5 star property but clean and very friendly. You can hire taxis or rent scooters to go into the canyon and explore. If you rent a scooter and continue up the canyon road be aware gasoline is only available about 60km after the start of your trip.

Conveniently located outside taroko gorge. Simple & fairly clean. Nice staff, but not fluent in English. If arriving outside of check in hours, make sure to arrange a ride from train station & let hotel know in advance.

Small hotel/hostel practically empty first day. Enjoyed free breakfast and their coffee is great. English is limited but we managed as I had retained some Chinese from when I was in Taiwan 45 yrs ago. A limited menu but adequate and convenient. Missed cleaning our room once but rectified the situation. As a plus there is WiFi throughout the hotel. Not the case in every hotel. Near the bus stop and all day pass is available for purchase from staff who were very nice and friendly. I would stay there again.

Liwu Hotel is very close to Taroko Gorge entrance. Staff was very nice and I will definitely stay there again when I return to the area.
