Guest Reviews
- Tour39037637117 (8/5): A Charming Historic Hotel - There’s a free shuttle bus from the nearest station, so getting around was very easy. Although there are no convenience stores nearby, the small shop inside the hotel was sufficient, so it wasn’t an issue. The room was clean, and the shower and toilet worked perfectly. Since it’s a well-known hotel with a long history, I would love to stay here again if I get the chance. Next time, I’d like to visit during the season when the pool is open. 最寄駅からは無料のシャトルバスが出てるので移動は苦にならない 周りにコンビニはないがホテル内に小さな売店があるので特に問題はなかった 部屋は清潔感もありシャワーやトイレも特段問題はなかったです 歴史もある有名ホテルなのでまた機会があれば宿泊したい 次はプールが入れるシーズンに行ってみたい
- 374sandeepc (10/5): Grand Indeed ...Grand Hotel Taipei - Our stay at the Grand Hotel Taipei was driven by a desire to experience its unique history, and we were pleasantly surprised that the experience felt truly grand rather than dated. From the moment we entered, the magnificent lobby and the live piano performance created a wonderful atmosphere. Our rooms were absolutely neat and clean, and the service throughout was extremely responsive—from the friendly check-in staff to the housekeeping team who quickly fulfilled our requests for water and an ironing board. While the hotel is not in the heart of the city, the 5-minute shuttle to the Red Line MRT made getting around very convenient. My only disappointment was the dining; we tried one of the three restaurants, and unfortunately, the food was unmemorable and didn't quite reach the high standards the hotel aims for. However, the overall hospitality was excellent, and I would certainly stay again. I wish the Duen Mou Foundation all the best in continuing to take this iconic landmark to even greater heights.
- sputter1234 (8/5): Immerse yourself in history! - Stayed here during the christmas holidays and the hotel was bustling! It's a gorgeous hotel steeped in such rich history, and you feel it as you walk through the lobby and hallways. Rooms are modern. We were in a superior room in the main building with amazing 180degree views of the city. It was magical to watch in the morning and night. Behind the hotel is a trail up Jiantan mountain where you can see the planes Songshan airport and gorgeous sunrise/sunset - lots of stairs, but only takes about 15 min. And my favorite part of the stay has to be the EXTENSIVE chinese breakfast buffet. Soo much better than other 5 star hotels we stayed at while in Taiwan. A few cons: It's not as convenient of a location given that it's up a hill (shuttle or taxi to MRT), and pool/tennis court complex is a 10 min walk/shuttle ride away. We also took the West tunnel tour -- in all honestly, it's probably best for chinese speakers only. We got the audio guide for english, which was pretty lame. Most of the interesting stuff that was shared was by the tour guide who only spoke chinese. Our group returned our headsets after about 15 min (after we walked through the tunnel).
- madamjackie (8/5): Bonkers but great fun - We stayed for five nights over Christmas in a superior side view room looking west over the mountains on the 8th floor of the main building. (Take care what you book because the second building behind is low rise and a long way back). The balcony was amazing although don’t expect to sit out on it. Our room had high quality and comfortable bed and linen, and a large and well equipped bathroom with bath and shower and a line for drying your smalls. Daily bottled water plus oolong tea and coffee. Tv with international channels and a safe. We also bought a day rate internal room with no windows because we arrived at 05.00 from our flight. Small and with hard beds but otherwise just as well equipped. For us this was a good deal after a night flight because it included the enormous buffet breakfast and then we could shower and rest until check in. The lobby is always a hive of activity because people come just to visit the hotel on daily sightseeing tours. It’s a great place to people watch. The steakhouse is good if you’re not a hardcore Chinese food fan, and the lobby cafe also. There’s also a mini market hidden among the shopping area which has snacks, milk and even yogurt if you’re doing your own breakfast. Make good use of the regular free shuttle bus to town and Shilin to get to the night market and MRT for easy access all over the city. Finally, do visit the exhibition of the history of the hotel and take a tour of the tunnels. We did west which has the escape chute. It was hilarious!
- riverl2023 (6/5): Big name but not worth for staying here - I've been to Taipei more than 20 times, and I suddenly want to take a short vacation with my family at the Grand Hotel. I know the hotel is special for many Taiwanese people, because of its history as a state house. My experience perhaps was an exception ( I hope so...), but I just reflected the true experience. I was in the "Horizontal Room" located on the 6th floor in the main building. I must say the view is fantastic. You have a 180-degree panoramic view of Taipei City, and this is most of what you paid for. The room was spacious and aged as expected. The bathroom was probably renovated 10ish years ago. The first problem was that the shower was filthy, and you could see dirt surrounding the edge of the shower, which was pretty disgusting tbh. The wooden floor in the room was quite dirty. After walking for some time with my bare feet, the soles turned completely black. Maybe this is the reason they prepared slippers in the room. Unfortunately, the telephones are not working, so I have to go down to the lobby around 11pm to get an extra towel. One more thing that made me so frustrated was that the welcome message on the TV was another guy's name. Actually, I feel sorry for people who paid lots of money to come here to celebrate an anniversary or a birthday. Can you imagine how bad it is to receive this kind of arrangement? I mean, it's nice to come over for dinner or just to visit the hotel, but staying here definitely doesn't make any sense.
- Marf13669 (10/5): One is blown away by the elaborate decor and accessories in the Grand Hotel. - The Taipei Grand Hotel is a 14-story palace-like building, facing Keelung River. It is a towering building with red columns, gilded tiles and a magnificent classic presence. It is a must-visit great gem of Chinese culture. The Grand Hotel in Taipei was used by the Japanese during their control of China in WWII to house officers and other governmental officials on the island. It was established as a five-star hotel by Madame Chaing in 1952 and was listed among the top 10 hotels in the world by Fortune magazine in 1967. It houses four Western and Chinese gourmet restaurants. The offerings at the Chinese buffet are beyond one’s imagination with over fifty different stations with a half dozen or more offerings at each post. Their Asian fusion offerings span from Japanese Sushi, Sashimi, Ramen and Tempura to Vietnamese Pho and Banh Mi and everything in between. The quality, variety and quantity are unfathomable. This is a “foodie’s heaven.” One must see to believe. It is a thrill just to walk into the great lobby for a view. This hotel has hosted the Shah of Iran Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, King Hussein of Jordan, King Faisal of Saudi Arabia, the King of Thailand, Nelson Mandela, Margaret Thatcher, and Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan and Clinton. I highly recommend a visit to the Grand Hotel even if one cannot afford to stay there. Try one of their restaurants as the food is phenomenal.
- klft6299 (10/5): Best view and friendly staffing - The Grand Hotel is one of the best hotels in Taiwan! The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the front door team — they always assist with taxis and umbrellas with a warm smile. The hotel offers a convenient shuttle service to the train station several times a day, and to the night markets on weekends, which makes getting around super easy. I quickly learned how to take the train, and it was so convenient! Our rooms had amazing views, and the shower water pressure was perfect — we all loved it. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and will definitely come back again!
- CLBNSC (10/5): Great Grand Stay! - Truly an impressive property. A Classical Chinese building with huge rooms and equally huge balconies and everything is well maintained. Music played in the extremely large lobby in the evenings. Seems to have a lot of business convention people. The pool you take a shuttle too and it’s Olympic size and 16 feet deep. Incredible. Restaurants give you a variety of choices mainly cater to Chinese tastes as you expect. Easy shuttle to the two local MRT stations. I’d go again.
- Mei (8/5): - There were some parts in the room need repair work.
- Zhang Mao (10/5): - Super nice!
- Bo Qin (10/5): - Good
- Joyce (10/5): - Shuttle bus to the MRT station is too crowded during lunchtime.
- Steve (10/5): - A superb hotel in every sense. Spacious, comfortable room (I had a city view), wonderful bed, friendly staff, huge breakfast buffet (mine wasn't included but worth paying) and the Olympic sized swimming pool...
- Mujun (10/5): - very good
- Solo (10/5): - Excellent Olympic size pool.
- JOSE (10/5): - FRIENDLY STAFF
- Daisy (10/5): - Perfect hotel
- Zan J. (10/5): - Excellent
- Gail (10/5): - The Grand Hotel is an iconic landmark in Taipei. I was excited to get a really affordable price on one of the inner rooms. The room was clean and staff super friendly. The outdoor pool was really great! Expect US prices at the bar and coffee shop. Food was excellent. I am so glad I was able to stay there!
- Gloria (10/5): - Beautiful and historic!!! Must stay here!
- Gail (10/5): - Iconic hotel in Taipei! Stay there if you can!! Great pool, service, restaurants and even a little shopping floor!
- ke (10/5): - Very good hope to stay again!
- Emily (8/5): - Overall is very good. But the minimum spending dining request is a little bit bothering me. For example going to the cafe if the order is under $300 then I have to order something else which I don’t really want to enable me to sitting in the cafe.
- YACHUN (10/5): - My second time staying at the grand hotel in Taipei. Will come back again!!
- Nishtha (8/5): - We had a great time at this property, the staff was very nice and accommodating. They even let us extend our check out time as we had a later flight. The food, the heritage it preserves and the history behind this hotel is simply fantastic. The only thing that i would have liked was if the hotel rooms were cleaner and rennovated. Rest, everything was good.
- Anthony (8/5): - .
- Solo (10/5): - The displays on the history of the Grand Hotel are fascinating. The staff is helpful. The swimming pool is awesome.
- James (10/5): - A massive, well-maintained property, with a lot of interesting history. The corner suite is absolutely immense, both inside and out, and the breakfast buffet was the largest and most extensive we had ever seen. The Olympic-sized pool is immense, but a bit of a challenge to get to from the main lobby and there are no attendants at it. That said, it did provide a welcome relief to the heat and humidity of Taipei in August. We missed the hotel shuttle from the pool back to the main lobby one morning and a very friendly staffer drove us in a golf cart so we could get back in time — representative of the always-friendly staff at this property. We seldom stay at properties this large, but certainly enjoyed our stay.
- CHANGIK (10/5): - I'm not usually one to write reviews, but this time I absolutely had to. I've been a world traveler for years, and I can honestly say this is the best hotel I have ever experienced. The service here is truly top-tier. The staff goes above and beyond, and it's clear they take immense pride in their work. My room was meticulously cleaned and tidied every single day, and they made sure I always had a fresh supply of bottled water on hand. Plus, they offer a complimentary shuttle to the nearest subway stations, which is a game-changer for getting around. The best part? All of these fantastic services are provided without any expectation of a tip. A huge shout-out to the entire staff—you are all superstars! The service here is a perfect 10 out of 10. And let's not forget about the pool—an Olympic-sized, five-meter deep masterpiece that is simply amazing."
- Yaa-Ching (10/5): - 5 start hotel with traditional Chinese architecture and great view
- Amsetus (10/5): Historic Hotel - This is an historic hotel. Grounds are enormeous, including olympic pool, tennis, etc. Our room was without a window but well ventilated. A/C and WiFi was very strong. Nice clean bathroom with seperate bathtub and shower. Breakfast was one of the most varied and extensive we ever had, for all tastes. Come early for they start hurrying you out about 20 minutes before closure. Staff was fantastic, they provided maps, complimentary shuttle schedules, discount coupons, etc. Don't miss the tours of the escape tunnels, there are two but the main one is the favorite. You can ask for the audio guide in your language. Hope we can come back in the future.
- Long (8/5): - Beautiful hotel but lack ò other amenities. For these prices still need to pay extra for sauna. Breakfast is good but not outstanding..
- Kai Cheung (10/5): - Unique - Underground subs. The Concord area may need more rest amenities like sofas.
- canson (8/5): - It’s a historical property with a lot of grand factors. But the location is remote
- HUAI-MIN (10/5): - We celebrated Father’s Day with the whole family and grandpa at the Grand Hotel Taipei. The hotel staff were extremely warm and friendly toward the elderly. In addition to a bathtub, the bathroom’s shower area was equipped with a seat and handrails, which was wonderful. From the balcony, we could even enjoy a view of Taipei 101.
- Christopher (10/5): - This hotel was a magnificent building and our room which was the cheapest available was clean and well appointed with a comfy bed.
- albertcY6236QT (10/5): Beautiful Hotel! - Beautiful, historic hotel with an excellent view of Taipei from the room! The restaurants at the hotel were great. Far from downtown so you will need a taxi everywhere or else take the hotel shuttle to the subway. A wonderful stay.
- glA9702AY (8/5): Garden Cafe High Tea - Fusion of East & West - We didn't stay in this hotel because some Taiwanese friends said the rooms were outdated. However, we wanted to see this impressive hotel and booked an afternoon tea in their Garden Cafe. The price is a good deal at US$20 per person for the tea package without alcohol. The sweets include mocha mini cake and lotus seed mini-roll. The savory items include typical sandwiches and salmon asparagus sandwiches. This high tea is a fusion of local favorites. The tea selection is huge, ranging from English teas to Chinese tea and Japanese rice tea. A glass of complimentary lotus drink is included, the waitress was wonderful and offered each of us a choice of sweet or savory to refill, which was a bonus. Even though we went on a rainy day, there were plenty of light and greenery to enjoy while chatting with friends and admiring the beauty of their ceiling.
- Stephanie (10/5): - Very good
- Christina Matandaware (10/5): - I lked the cleanliness, quietness, transportation and the general atmosphere. Very wonderful staff
- Michelle L (8/5): - This is a beautiful property ~ We enjoyed our stay. But we were disappointed the pool is a lap pool and not for relaxing. Drinks at bar are amazing. It is walkable to night market but only by set of stairs through park. However, they offer a shuttle…we learned this too late as we were not given this info at checkin.
- Kun (8/5): - Very majestic and beautiful building
- hongtao (10/5): - Very nice experience!
- zhen zhen (10/5): - good blankets
- hongtao (10/5): - Nice food and nice buildings . We will for sure be back .
- Siwei (8/5): - Historic hotel but far away from the rest of the city
- Kar Yin Ian (10/5): - The hotel looks incredible and it was a memorable stay.
- Onel (10/5): - Beautiful property. Everyone was very nice.
- Martin (10/5): - Very good
- Jennifer (10/5): - Check in process was friendly and seamless (thank you Jessie for the room upgrade for a better view of city)! Lobby was indeed grand (live piano music was a beautiful addition). Hotel shuttle to and from Yuanshan train station was very convenient. Room was nice - however recommend stocking room with more clothes hangars, plates, silverware. Standard pillows were uncomfortable - good thing I saw the pillow menu (charcoal pillow was much better). Recommend separate shampoo and conditioner (not combined). Underground tour was not that enjoyable because tour guide spoke in Mandarin - recommend offering 2 tours (Mandarin and English). Swimming pool and gym required taking a shuttle so we didnt get to see that part of the hotel unfortunately. Overall all hotel were friendly and welcoming (except the mean lady working as barista in afternoon of July 29, 2025). Hope to stay at Grand Hotel next time we are in Taipei!
- Audrey (8/5): - Transport fee to airport not as quoted on hotel website, 5x more expensive. Difficult for travellers to get to shops and commercial areas. Otherwise beautiful decor and clean amenities.
- Zhang Mao (10/5): - Wonderful place! Highly recommend to everyone visiting Taipei.
- Blake (8/5): - This hotel is a historic site, and super interesting for that reason. But, it's a bit disconnected from the rest of the city, and the facilities are getting a bit old. If you want a unique, interesting experience, I recommend this place, but if you're looking for convenience and/or luxury I recommend finding somewhere else.
- KCCasey007 (10/5): Great experience staying at The Grand Hotel Taipei… - We managed to get a room at a promo price to experience this 5 star hotel… it’s really worth the experience… i feel the hotel can be a place of interest by itself even for tourists who are not staying here… The hotel is majestic… we were welcomed by the grand lobby… it is really very big… and the hotel staff are very friendly and informative… The room is also spacious, the toilet is huge with both shower area and bathtub… the balcony is jaw-dropping big for a reason… the room is well maintained despite the hotel’s long history… I am glad that there is a water dispenser at our level so that we need not boil any water… There is shuttle buses that drives occupants to the sauna and swimming pool as the place is really big… Maybe the swimming pool facilities need some maintenance… as one of the shower near the pool was spoilt… We have to rely on the hotel shuttle to reach the MRT…. the shuttle buses are quite frequent… We choose to experience the breakfast which has a very nice spread…
- Dennis (6/5): - Certainly grand in appearance but rooms in main building are dated and in dire need of renovation. Location also not very convenient - close to Shilin nightmarket but not much else. The stay was comfortable, but not anything amazing. Staff were excellent.
- Athena (10/5): Absolutely Exceptional–A True Five-Star Experience - We had a superb experience staying at The Grand Hotel in Taipei. Among hotels of similar level, this one stands out for its thoughtful service and attention to detail. The staff were consistently warm and helpful — from the front desk and concierge to the transportation team, restaurant servers, cleaning staff, and luggage attendants. Everyone made us feel welcome and well taken care of. What impressed us most was how comprehensive the services were. The hotel helped us arrange taxis, airport shuttles, and even a private driver for a day trip outside of Taipei, which was the highlight of our stay. They also offer on-site currency exchange, which was very convenient. The hotel itself is true to its name — grand in design, well-maintained, and very clean. There's a real sense of history and elegance throughout the property. For the level of comfort and service provided, we felt the price was more than fair. It was excellent value for the experience we had. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-run place to stay in Taipei.

- Neli (10/5): - Highly highly recommend this location especially if you like to swim. This building has so much culture in it. The Olympic size pool is beautiful with an amazing view of the building. I would not want to stay anywhere else in Taipei besides this hotel. Service was amazing, very clean place and great restaurants to eat that. Located not too far from a lot of the activities!
- GregNS68 (10/5): Amazing must visit hotel - Stayed only for the buffet. One of the best globally rivalling a 7 star restaurant. No viewing platform. Free wifi. Plenty of photo opportunities. Interior decor is incredible. The views from the rooms would be amazing at this 200y old hotel! Enjoy!
- Julie (2/5): - Bed bugs in room 453. See more thorough review on tripadviser.
- Lina (10/5): - The building is magnificent, clean, historic. The room is very well maintained, breakfast is great but not beyond expectation. Consignee service is great, and door keepers are super friendly, helping me open taxi door. Gym is great, provide clean towels and the staff is friendly to open and close doors for me. The tour guide for the underground tunnel did a great job. Overall, wonderful experience. Definitely will live in here again when i visit Taipei
- jlbatz (2/5): Bed bugs at the Grand Hotel Taipei!! - Bed bugs at the Grand Hotel Taipei in room 453. Here with hubby and 2 teens. Checked in yesterday into room 453. Woke up at 3:00 am today with very itched ankles, lower legs. Left this morning at 8:00am to discover a couple hundred small red bites on both legs. Hubby and one teen also had the same. Hotel offered ice and to transfer us to the hospital and they will pay. Took the ice. Hotel will not refund our 1 night and has no disinfectant protocol to offer. Denied to launder our clothing. Such a bummer for us. Beautiful hotel and history incredible. Also found a cockroach in our room this am. Would not return.
- Nia (10/5): - My daughter and I loved the grounds and enjoyed exploring the property and pool. It made our short stay quite a magical adventure.

- Dietwin Johann (10/5): - Beyond beautiful hotel, great location and the complimentary shuttle to the metro station sure was very convenient
- Share (10/5): - The Grand Hotel has a lot to offer. They were very courteous with their services and offer very professional and respectful stay for my elderly parents and I. We stayed five nights and took some time to enjoy Yuan Yuan Club to relax before our long flight home. Wonderful experience.
- Grant (10/5): - Excellent people, excellent infrastructures, excellent location.
- Brett (8/5): - The grandeur atmosphere and tentative staff made for an overall luxurious-feeling experience. There were many amenities offered and the hotel-station shuttle in particular was very convenient. However, one thing that didn't sit well with me and my travel partner was one stingy occurrence at Yuan Yuan restaurant. The waitress replaced our tea pot (it was not empty) and they ended up charging us for two hot teas even though we never asked for the refill. It was a little thing, but it felt very stingy considering how much we were spending for our high-end meal. So that they could collect a few extra dollars, this cost them two annoyed guests and a tainted impression of their entire property, despite the delicious meal.
- V. (10/5): - Elegant and comfortable facilities with convenient transportation !
- Saeko Ginestet (10/5): - Beautiful building and decor! Great service with well-trained and courteous staff. Comfortable and spacious room. Convenient location and good shuttle service. Will stay here again!

- duncan (8/5): - This is a better than average hotel for the price. They’re almost large and well renovated. The hotel has great history so we’re staying here. Also has a very good view of the city and convenient shuttle buses to take you down to the MRT. Some nice little shops. The buffet was unremarkable. Overall a nice stay
- Long (10/5): - Great Hotel to stay with all the amenities in one place.
- Heidi Leslie (10/5): Excellent birthday celebration at the Grand Hotel - I’m so happy I stayed here in this excellent hotel to celebrate my birthday! Stunning hotel and view. Beautiful history! I love to come back.
- Louise (10/5): - Awesome opulent experience. Beautiful hotel, grounds and restaurant. Incredible dinner buffet. Fabulous staff. Beautiful room.
- Pei-Yao (8/5): - Booked a room without window. Kind of small but good for one person to stay. Great location with great city views. Easy access to hiking routes entrance. About 15 min walking distance to the nearest subway station.
- Wei (10/5): - It is a nice place to stay when you visit. The only concern is the food quality is not as good as previous.
- Paul (10/5): - Very big and historical. A few parties were held there including a newlywed couple, happy environment. Didn’t have time to try their famous buffet. Will try it next time. It’s isolated on a hill and have to rely on free hotel shuttle to go and from nearby MRT station. The view from my room was spectacular overlooking the city of Taipei

- George (10/5): - Elegant Chinese venue

- Sean (10/5): - For my first visit to Taiwan, I really wanted to stay in a hotel with regional cultural character. It turned out the Grand Hotel is the only place that fits the bill, and what a magical palace it is! I loved the ambience of the interior design in both the common spaces and my room, which had a beautiful view of the green mountains behind the hotel. The breakfast buffet is amazing. There is also a really cute cafe in the rear wing that you should not miss.
