Vogue Inn at Hualien

期待下次的旅行

小幫手 讓人找不到 有點恐懼

The bed is comfy and the room is spacious.

Bathroom smell not nice and very humid. No windows but then again the price is in line with that.

The room was very clean and it's a great location. You're at the perfect place to get everything you need, very close to the train station, with convenience stores and many restaurants within walking distance. The bed was comfortable, and our room had a massive shower with great water pressure and a huge Smart TV with all kinds of streaming services. In terms of quality of the room for the money, as Taiwan is notoriously expensive for lodgings, my girlfriend and I both found it quite nice.

When we arrived, nobody was there. It seemed like the staff ran it like more of an apartment you stay at, which they visit from time to time. Apparently, this is kind of common in Hualien, but waiting there at the door twenty minutes after a long trip for them to arrive and then not really having reception around regularly as newcomers was strange. They were kind and helpful when we saw them, but there were quite a few times we wanted to speak to someone, and no one was around. No fridge in the room.

Really nice rooms and friendly staff. Big, comfortable beds as well as a sofa, tv and air conditioning in the rooms.

Not that it mattered to me, the hotel was close to the main train station. As I was travelling with my dogs, I was glad the hotel accepted pets – with a fee.

There was no lift, no on-site parking. There was no one at the reception when we wanted to check out at 11am. I wonder what was the point of collecting the deposit of NT$1000 and then not appearing during check-out time. In the end, we waited for about 40 minutes, which caused quite severe disruptions to our travel plans for the rest of the day.

Design of room

No staff stand by. We have to call when we arrive but I don’t have Taiwan sim card to call. While I was checked out I can’t contact staff again even I text to them.
