Hotels Near TAO ART in Taipei

We stayed for 3 nights for a conference at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Centre, Direct MRT Only 4 stops from Tango hotel. Got upgraded to a room with separate work desk and sitting area. Easy to get to other parts of Taipei with 永春YungChun station. Local markets and eateries, massage parlour nearby. My wife enjoys more of Taipei while I am at the conference. Pleasant stay.

Grand Hotel Taipei – A Stay with a View & Secrets Beneath Staying at Grand Hotel Taipei is more than just luxury—it’s an experience. The grand architecture, stunning city views, and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect retreat. But the real surprise? A hidden tunnel beneath the hotel, originally built as an escape route for Chiang Kai-shek. For a small fee, you can explore this secret passage, adding a touch of mystery to your stay. Combine that with sunrise views of Taipei 101 from the balcony, and it’s a stay worth remembering. #GrandHotelTaipei #HiddenTunnels #Taipei101 #TravelTaiwan

all good except one of the rooms, the bathroom and the lobby/elevator often reeked of the sewage smell.

The decoration of hotel is extremely creepy. We didn’t stay here although the money was paid for since it’s passing the refunding time. The guy is the front desk is nice but the mid aged lady is giving a disturbing face at all time. I don’t know why they hired this staff who’s not even happy about the job ..?

I had a fantastic stay. The room was spacious and offered a lovely view from the 13th floor. The hotel's location is just a 5-minute walk to the metro, making it super convenient for exploring the area. There are also two handy convenience stores nearby, which made grabbing snacks and essentials a breeze. The overall atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff were attentive. Highly recommend this hotel for its comfort, cleanliness, and prime location!

Overall, room is clean, service is good, location is strategic with direct access to public transport. Service can be improved where they initially assigned a standard room size equipped with superior double bed to us who reserved a superior double room. Unfortunately we have to stay a night in the assigned room before shifting to the intended room. Photos below are the initially assigned room where it is different from the pictures shown on Trip.com for superior double room. Overall, it is still a good hotel.

Stayed here for 2 nights between traveling. It’s a bit further than I thought from the train station. We ended up getting an uber since Apple Maps and Google maps showed different locations (but same address). Check in was a breeze. Just scan the passport in the kiosk and scan the keys upon leaving- super quick. The room was big enough for 2 of us- we would stay again

The location of the hotel is fantastic. Close walk to Taipei Main Station and Taoyuan Airport MRT station for transportation (just need to figure out the right exit to enter or exit the station), walking distance to Ximenting for shopping, there are lots of eateries nearby, Chengzhong Market (城中市场 translate to Market in the city), a local market, is walking distance with lots of local food stalls. The staff are friendly and helpful. The lobby area is quite spacious with some longish siting area. There is no common area to work though. We booked 2 types of room for our group. Share Studio and Classic Twin. The Share Studio comes with 4 single beds, no window, but spacious. However, the toilet ergonomics not so good as there is no space to place toiletries in the shower cubicle except on the floor. 1 bit towel and a small towel are provided for, together with 2 paper cups for each bed. Each bed has a luggage storage area under the bed, a lockable drawer, and a small compartment for storing things. Each bed comes with a small retractable desk with its own light at the foot of the bed. The Classic Twin has better ergonomics in the toilet, and has windows to get ventilation (if needed). This room is considered more premium than the Share Studio, it comes with tea and coffee, and ceramic cups. In each room a water jug is provided for, and at least 2 water stations are available on each floor. Will I stay here again? Definitely.

Room is a tad small for single traveller. If you have a large lugguage. Toilet is good size almost half of the room size . Location wise is perfect just beside karaoke and near to train station exit 4 and 5. Food is easily located nearby . Con - wifi cannot make it . If you need to work , this hotel cannot as the wifi will drive you crazy . I think the servers cannot cope with large number of paxs staying there using at the same time . Front counter staff - Manuel is friendly and helpful . Appreciate his assistance when I needed a box and tape. Fruitful advise given. No amenities is provided but 7-11 is just by the corner and pastry shop and all. Post office is super near if you need to buy boxes.

At checkin, room was smelling of rotten milk, and it was very cold (18 Celsius). I asked the front desk to change room, they said no, they don’t have any rooms available (there are maybe 100 rooms on my floor alone…) When I told them it’s too cold, they said I should turn off the AC. I said it’s off, they said it must not be, they “advise” me to check again. I checked 3 times, turned it on and off. The front then said they will give me an extra blanket… not once did anyone come to the room to check the smell or AC themselves. Also, they don’t have heating at all, so I had to warm the room with my body temperature only… ***. At night the pipes make noises, and the smell never went away. They also charge to store your luggage. Very disappointed by the hotel cleanliness and service. It was so unaccommodating. They told me it’s a basement room, so the smell is normal. ***… Room has mirrors in the ceiling. I think it’s love hotel.
