Fenchihu Hotel

Excellent location. A stone throw away from train/bus stations, 7-11 and the local shops. The hotel serves a dinner menu that’s great value for money. Staff were friendly and helpful in facilitating our requests. Complimentary food vouchers for 7-11 and the local tea leaves are very thoughtful gifts. Room itself was very spacious and comfortable enough. However, the bathroom feels slightly dated and could do with some update.

Very lovely comfortable hotel indeed, right in the center of fenchichu 老街. Stayed in a western room in the 2nd wing, and whilst room is sparse, loved the wooden floor and how clean it is. The bedsheets even have that fresh smell to them! Oh yes, if you’re staying here, do go for their complimentary tours by their lovely guide. 3 tours a day (830, 1700 and 1500). I learnt so much about Fenchichu and cedar wood, and nature thanks to the tour!

We stayed with our family and it was the best hotel option in the area in our budget. The rooms could be updated and the bathrooms are minimal. There were bugs in the room so we could recommend that they clean more thoroughly in the future. We did like the 7/11 vouchers that they gave us for breakfast each morning. This was great for our family with young children.

Iconic Bentos Supposedly the railroad workers used to eat bentos while working on the rail here. You get to choose either soy sauce chicken, braised pork, or combo. I had to get the combo to try both. Pork was super tender and flavorful. Chicken was decent as well, although not as soft as I would have liked. Served with rice, bamboo shoots, and dried squid that has been dyed fluorescent red. It was quite a hefty lunch served in a metal bento box. Grab a seat on the roof and ladle yourself some seaweed soup.

We had the cheapest room which had a nice Japanese vibe. The bed was comfy although a bit hard. Best part definitely the location and the staff. Fenqihu is a very cool place if you don’t stay in Alishan park. Nice hikes and a few shops and restaurants. Staff was very helpful and they also got me a driver to take me back to fenqihu when we left Alishan late.

The accommodation was surprisingly comfortable. We stayed in a western type room vs tatami style. Hot water is only available during certain hours of the day and breakfast is a 100 ntd 7-11 voucher. The bathroom layout is the worst. The toilet is so close to the sink you can barely sit straight. Location is near the bus stop. Their claim to fame is their bento box meals in a silver bento box tin. The price is expensive in comparison to other restaurants but you get 10 ntd off if you stay at the hotel. Honestly, the bento box was more gimmicky. The flavor wasnt as good as other restaurants with cheaper bento box meals. Go elsewhere for your bento box but stay here during your visit to Fenqihu.

This amazing @fenchihu_hotel is a place famous for these imcredible Bento Box meals in an amazing location on the mountainside! You must give it a visit if you are visiting Taiwan! Rooms were great, and service was so friendly!

Yummy yummy yummy 😋 Bento pork rice. Delicious!! Must try if you are at Alishan. Restaurant inside this hotel

I love this hotel at the first sight. On the first floor, the famous bento box with pork chop, vegetable, dry tofu and soup, smells so good. It is amazing to enjoy the bento box at the wooden-crafted tables, sitting on the cool wooden stool. Our room is a surprising delight, as it has the Japanese style from in sleeping area, living room area and bathroom as well as the outside hallway. The services are great too. I enjoyed their guided tour services to check out different interesting sites near the hotel.
