Hotel Indigo Kaohsiung Central Park

Stayed in a bathtub room on August 28th and loved the spacious, well-designed layout—super clean and fresh-smelling throughout. The next day I was upgraded to a non-bathtub room, which still felt fantastic with its modern touches and great ambiance. The hotel is clearly popular—rooms were fully booked—but the cleanliness remained top-notch. One small thing: found a few hairs stuck in the corner of the sink area during my second night, but it’s minor and easily overlooked. What really stood out was the personal touch: staff carried my luggage up to the room and left a handwritten note that felt genuinely warm and thoughtful—like a friend welcoming me. It made the whole experience feel special. Highly recommend this hotel for both comfort and charm.

The Lees Hotel

Staying at The Lees Hotel in Kaohsiung was a really positive experience overall. The room was spacious and very comfortable, especially with the nice view from the window—great for relaxing after a long day. The only minor issue was the air conditioning, which seemed too strong even after adjusting it; the blanket was quite warm, but when I’d kick it off, my legs felt cold. It’s a small downside, but nothing that took away from the great vibe of the hotel. Clean, well-maintained rooms, excellent location, and friendly staff make this a top pick if you're visiting Kaohsiung. Definitely worth considering for your next trip.
