I had an absolutely amazing stay at Hotel East Taipei. The level of comfort is outstanding, the room was cozy, spotless, and felt like a real little haven after long days out in the city. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. You really feel welcomed from the second you walk in. Breakfast was fantastic as well: delicious, fresh, and with plenty of options to start the day on the right foot. Overall, this hotel was a real highlight of my trip. Warm atmosphere, great comfort, wonderful service I can only recommend it wholeheartedly.

I don’t recall exactly why I first chose this hotel, but my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay at this boutique property in November 2025. Our room on the 11th floor was spacious, quiet, and exceptionally clean. My wife, who is very particular about cleanliness, was especially impressed with the pristine condition of the bedsheets. The hotel’s location is excellent—close to the MRT station—and the Taiwan Ubike system proved especially convenient. Every destination we planned to visit during our two-day trip was easily reachable within a 30-minute ride. We also appreciated the complimentary breakfast; service was prompt, and the food was both flavorful and satisfying. If there is an area for improvement, it would be the Wi-Fi speed, which consistently tested below 20 Mbps for both upload and download. Additionally, enhancing the lighting at the main entrance and ensuring the glass panels remain spotless would help elevate the property’s overall first impression. Overall, this was a delightful stay that exceeded our expectations and we will definitely revisit for many more nights to come.

Definitely not our favorite hotel, we stayed in room 505 with 3 beds but at night the room has noise that sounds like someone was popping popcorn right next to your bed. We were so tired we didn't get a chance to tell the hotel staff and decided to play white noise with our phone the remainder of our stay. We found out on our last night that it was from AC dripping water on the tarp that was right outside our window ..when we asked the staff they said no one ever complained about it... :/ The elevator, as other mentioned, was slow and there was only one, so during busy hour we would have to wait awhile. We had two bottles of shampoo and one bottle of body wash in our bathroom and no conditioner and when we asked if they made a mistake they said they don't give out conditioner ..which seems really weird for us. We also noticed some mold looking spots in the bathroom. Breakfast was definitely not kid friendly, my son only ate the croissants, reviews showed that they used to do buffet style but we had some bread and rice you can get yourself but they served what seems like a Japanese style set that tasted very bland. We weren't a fan. They did include some pepsi in our fridge that were complimentary. Overall not impressed and likely won't return.

I have stayed at Hotel East Taipei twice (2024 and 2025) and I really love this hotel! The service is great where our requests are always attended to. We were amazed by the service last visit as they turned out breakfast into bento as we overslept!! Was not expecting this service! The hotel is also very conveniently located near Nanjin Sanmin train station. It is also very walkable to Taipei 101 area - we walked back from here after year end count down previously. Interior of hotel room gives off Japanese cosy vibes! Will definitely stay here again when I visit Taipei next time!

Room service was great—housekeeping cleaned and tidied my room every day throughout my 5D4N stay. The location isn’t the most central, but it’s easy to find since it’s along the same alley as the station exit between Taipei Arena and Nanjing Sanmin. Breakfast was provided during my stay and it was overall pleasant, plus everything looked aesthetically pleasing. I gave the hotel 4 stars because the carpet area outside the bathroom seemed a bit mouldy, which honestly made me uncomfortable.

The hotel’s location is pretty good, but they only have one elevator, so you always end up waiting. The main reason we booked this place was because they stated on Expedia that they had a washer and dryer — that was why we chose this hotel. But after we checked in and called to ask about it, the front desk told us their dryer had been broken for a long time, and basically said it was up to us whether we still wanted to wash our clothes (which basically meant don’t bother, because nothing would dry — and it happened to be raining in Taipei for an entire week). There was absolutely no apology or any backup plan at all. It was so ridiculous. In the end, we had no choice but to go to an outside laundromat to do our laundry.

The location is very convenient, with easy access to many destinations. The staff are friendly and helpful. While the room is a bit small, it’s compact and efficiently designed, especially considering the very reasonable price. There’s a large window, though it doesn’t offer much of a view. There’s no gym or fancy decor, but the hotel offers practical amenities, including laundry service. Breakfast is included and provides a variety of choices. Overall, this will definitely be my choice again when visiting Taiwan.

It’s a great stay at Hotel East Songshan, room is great, bed is huge and bigger than normal king size, washroom is very clean and like Japanese style with shower and tub. Front desk lady Kathy offered excellent customer service, from checked in to check out, very patient and courteous, no matter in person or over the phone. She always trying to help and offer the best to accommodate guest’s inquiries, always comes with very sweet voice. Will come back to stay here again in the future.
