MEANDER 1948
This was my first stay at MEANDER 1948, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The location is perfect—just a quick walk from Taipei Main Station, making it super convenient for travelers. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the front desk staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I accidentally stained the mattress, and when I mentioned it, they immediately offered to change the bedding. I only stepped out to freshen up, and by the time I returned, the new sheets were already on, and the blanket was neatly folded. I opened the curtain and just stared in disbelief—this level of efficiency is unreal. The breakfast roll was a nice touch too. I was a little nervous staying in an eight-person room at first, worried about privacy and cleanliness, but I was pleasantly surprised. Everything felt clean, organized, and respectful of personal space. As someone who’s a perfectionist (and yes, a Virgo), this place truly exceeded my standards. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Taipei. If you’re still on the fence, don’t overthink it—just book it. You won’t regret it.
MEANDER Taipei
Perfect for solo travelers! The hotel feels secure and well-organized, with separate floors for men and women—great for privacy. The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully designed, making the stay feel comfortable and relaxing. I really appreciated having access to a washer and dryer, which made packing light much easier. There’s also a water dispenser on every floor, so staying hydrated is effortless. With plenty of restrooms available and clean facilities throughout, it’s clear the management pays attention to detail. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I visit Taipei.
Old Door Hostel & Bar
Staying at Old Door Hostel & Bar was an absolute highlight of my trip to Taipei! The location is unbeatable—just a 10-minute walk from the airport express station, making travel to and from the airport super convenient. My bunk was spacious enough for my luggage, and the bathroom was surprisingly large with plenty of room to store personal items. I appreciated the safety locker, and the included breakfast was a nice touch—warm, fresh, and satisfying. The staff went above and beyond: they greeted me with a welcoming cup of tea, gave a detailed walkthrough of the hostel, and personally showed me to my bed and bathroom. Their kindness and attention to detail made the whole experience feel personal and comfortable. I’ll definitely be booking here again on my next visit to Taipei!
NK Hostel
This is hands down the most welcoming hostel I've stayed at in the past year—after visiting over ten different accommodations, the staff here truly stood out with their genuine warmth and friendly attitude. Breakfast was simple but delicious, and the Americano coffee was a highlight—rich, smooth, and perfectly brewed. The rooms are spacious, and the common areas feel open and airy, making it easy to relax or hang out with other travelers. The bathrooms are clean, large, and well-maintained—something you don’t always get in city hostels. Location-wise, it’s super convenient for exploring Taipei, with easy access to MRT stations and nearby attractions. Great vibe, great value, and honestly, I’m already planning my return visit.
OwlStay Flip Flop Hostel Garden
Located in a fantastic spot just steps away from Taipei Station and Zhongshan Station, this hostel offers incredible convenience for travelers. My friend and I stayed in a private room with an en-suite bathroom—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. There’s also access to shared facilities if needed, and everything was kept tidy and hygienic. The only downside? Our room required climbing three flights of stairs, which was a bit challenging with heavy luggage. If you’re traveling with bulky bags or have mobility concerns, it’s worth checking the floor level before booking. The hairdryer in the room was weak, so bringing your own is a good idea. What really stood out was the breakfast discount voucher provided—breakfast here is absolutely delicious, fresh, and satisfying. We highly recommend trying it. Overall, the experience was excellent, with great value and a warm, welcoming vibe. I’d definitely come back, possibly opting for a single room next time for a more peaceful stay.
Backpackers Hotel Ximen
I was genuinely impressed with this hostel—better than I expected! The room is compact but has a private bathroom, which made my stay so much more convenient. No need to rush to shared facilities, and the privacy curtain gives you a bit of personal space. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, from the bedding to the common areas. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful—they went out of their way to answer questions and even gave me some great tips on nearby spots to check out. Location-wise, it’s super central—just a short walk or quick subway ride to Ximending, perfect for exploring the city. Clean, welcoming, and affordable—this place really delivers on value. I’d absolutely stay here again if I come back to Taipei. Highly recommended!
Dongmen 3 Capsule Inn
Stayed at Dongmen 3 Capsule Inn on October 14th and was thoroughly impressed. The entire space was spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything I needed. The room was quiet and comfortable, and the single capsule bed was surprisingly spacious—definitely more than enough room for a good night's sleep. The front desk staff, a young woman with a warm smile, went above and beyond to explain all the amenities and made me feel welcome right away. Her friendly attitude truly enhanced the experience. Located just minutes from the metro station, it’s super convenient for exploring Taipei’s main attractions. Highly recommend this hidden gem for travelers seeking comfort, cleanliness, and great value in a vibrant city setting.
Fun Inn Taipei
Staying at Fun Inn Taipei was a great experience overall. The hostel is incredibly convenient—just a short walk from Chenghuang Temple and the bustling Chengzhong Market, with easy access to the MRT station nearby. The place is clean and has a vibrant atmosphere that makes it feel welcoming. I stayed in a bunk bed room with two beds, and the layout made climbing up and down easy. However, there’s no private bathroom in the room—only one shared bathroom for all guests—and this meant morning routines could get a bit crowded as everyone queued to use it after someone else finished showering. It’s a small downside, but not deal-breaking. What really stood out was the staff—they were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. Their warm hospitality made the stay even more enjoyable. I’d definitely come back again!
Backpacker Hostel Changchun
Staying at Backpacker Hostel Changchun was an excellent experience from start to finish. Every power outlet is universal, so I didn’t have to worry about adapters—super convenient. I arrived late at 4:30 AM, and the staff were incredibly accommodating, allowing me to check in without any hassle. The beds come with privacy curtains, which made sleeping much more comfortable and personal. The bathrooms are clean, well-maintained, and spotless—definitely a big plus. Plus, the hostel is just steps away from the metro station, making it super easy to get around and visit top attractions like the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. With great value, friendly staff, and a prime location, this place truly stands out. I’d definitely stay here again.
MeetingMates Hostel
This has to be the most thoughtful hostel I've ever stayed at. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by how well-prepared they were for every need—free tea bags, coffee, toothpicks, cotton swabs, moisturizer, hair ties… even things I didn’t think to bring myself. The bathroom area is fantastic with five private rooms, and there’s a non-slip mat just outside each door—such a smart touch for safety and comfort. Kitchen essentials, hair dryers, washing machines, and a fridge are all available, plus everything you might not even realize you’d need. They require guests to change into indoor slippers upon entry, which really shows their commitment to cleanliness. The 6-person dorm is surprisingly spacious, and they’ve thought of everything—even including towel racks! Location-wise, it’s unbeatable: just a 2-minute walk to Dihua Street, 5 minutes to Beimen Station, and less than 10 minutes on foot to Ningxia Night Market. Perfect for exploring Taipei’s vibrant streets and food scene. Everything about this place—from service to facilities to convenience—deserves a perfect score. If you’re visiting Taipei, this hostel is an absolute must-book.
Guest House Taiwanmex
This place is an absolute steal for the price. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the metro and surrounded by great restaurants and local vibes. I’ve been staying in a private room here for two months now, and honestly, it’s been an amazing experience. The room comes with everything I could possibly need: air conditioning, TV, microwave, kettle, sink, shower, two closets, and even a refrigerator. The AC is powerful, but I rarely use it—I just keep the balcony door open and let the fan do the work. The host is incredibly kind and always cheerful. She’s gone above and beyond to help with recommendations and local tips, making my stay feel like home. At just 15,000 per month, this is one of the best deals I’ve ever had. If I return to Taipei, I’ll be booking here without hesitation. My friends are already jealous—I’m handing the room over to one of them in September, and trust me, they’re going to love it too.
Wego Boutique Hotel-Linsen
This stay was absolutely fantastic—I’d choose this hotel again without hesitation. The location is unbeatable: just a short walk to Taipei Main Station and surrounded by great dining and shopping options. The room was spotless, cozy, and incredibly quiet—my sleep quality was excellent, even with the AC running all night. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality; they were helpful, friendly, and even arranged a pickup for me. It’s clear they care about guest experience. With such a great balance of comfort, convenience, and value, this place stands out from the rest. I’ll definitely be back on my next trip to Taipei and highly recommend it to anyone visiting.
