Luxury hotel with exceptional service!”

in terms of space, facilities, amenities and service provided there is nothing that we can fuss about. location is ideal as it is walking distance to the nationalscience centre, eateries, restaurants, nearby family mart, organic shop, taichung international pastry no1 winner for pineapple tarts (most pricely also nt500 for 15pcs or nt350 10pcs), night market 15min walk. breakfast considered a good spread with various varieties suitable for vegans and meat eater (vegetarians may need to checkout the ingredients first). place is clean and hygiene. check in is superb fast and the concierge is attentive to assist wt the luggage. asking about local transport and where to go, all the staffs are equally helpful. if you would like to join local tour or call a cab, they can assist you. only downside, there is no activities for young kids, no kids area which i expect a 4 or 5 star hotel to have. only kids channel on tv. i have conveyed my suggestion to the front desk which the gm has replied with thanks. hope future check in kids will have surprises and i highly recommend those who are looking for 4star above in taichung to check this hotel 52 out!

Nice and decent”

Had a short stay of two nights during the x'mas holiday in a business double bed room at the B-wing. The hotel was newly furnished and well maintained and the staff were sincere and eager to help. Location was ok (we rent a car and drove on our own, hotel offered free parking), a convenient store was downstairs and the large local department store SOGO is only 5 mins of walk. One minor problem was there weren't plenty of taxi outside the hotel, while the staff could easily help you to get one in 5 mins without extra charge. My package did not include breakfast while there were a few tasty local restaurants nearby. Although the hotel positioned itself as a business hotel (with many Japanese guests and lots of int. tv channels provided), they shall also consider offering more local tv channels (台灣綜藝) for other guests who may found interesting. Given the price charged, Smartcue 52 Hotel is a very good hotel to stay in Taichung.

Hotel 52 feels like my second home.”

The issue with giving a good "review" is that it might make the hotel more popular - and therefore more difficult for me to book in the future! Have Agoda not thought about that? However - doing the right thing for fellow travellers to Taichung - you won't go wrong with Hotel 52. Great staff. Nice rooms. Good location and value for money. Please just don't book my room ahead of me for my next visit!

Good location”

It is a good experience to stay in 52 Hotel. Actually, it is the second time I stayed in this hotel. Its location is convenient and there are tourist spots nearby like museums. Many nice cafes and restuarants are near the hotel too. The staff are polite and they are always willing to offer help. Also, the price is reasonable. It is less than $500/night (not include tax). The room is big and tidy. It is comfortable to live here. It also provides free wifi which is very important.

Convenient and helpful staff”

we got a superior single room for 2 nights. rooms were clean and very spacious. friendly hotel staff were quick to help with directions and recommendations so plus points there. the hotel is not as convenient as i had imagined (though this could've been due to the fact that i had been in taipei just before taichung). the hotel is approx. 15 min by cab to taichung train station, 10 min walk to sogo, 5 min to jing ming 1st street and 10 min by cab to fengjia market. overall a very good stay at 52 hotel.

Great location and spacious rooms”

first time staying at the 52 hotel though i visit taichung often. this will be where i stay on future trips. it's in a great location close to everything on the newer side of the city. comfortable and large rooms.

Modern rm design, gd facilities esp for bizmen”

52 hotel is well located near 新光三越 and SOGO departmental stores and near the night market. Good for shopping lovers. It is not near the Taichung train station though. But taichung is accessible with public buses and taxis. facilities like biz lounge, billiard table, decent gym are well maintained. I would love to stay there again if I go to Taichung.

clean, friendly staff, nice breakfarst”

We live in south of Taiwan and this was first time that we traveled with our 1 year and 3 months old son. We booked this hotel about a month ago and we requested a play yard bed for our baby. we are so grateful that we did have the play yard bed in our room and it was very comfortable. We had a restful and relaxing stay at 52 Hotel!

Good location. Great Service. Nice stay”

I traveled on my own and it's a corner room so it's very spacious and I enjoyed it so much. The deco looks new and every night stay was just great. I had different requests over my stay e.g. ironing, reheating food, travel advice etc and they were able to assist. It has great location and is walkable to a nearby shopping / eating area. There was construction going on but I couldn't notice or hear it at all. I would definitely recommend this hotel to all people traveling Taichung. It's gd for both business and leisure. Very great deal indeed!

Enjoyable!”

My friends and I enjoyed the stay in 52 Hotel alot. The room is very clean and tidy, the facility in the washroom is good. The hotel is located in the city center, it is very convenient for us to walk or travel to the restaurants and shopping malls or night markets near by.

Comfortable and lovely Stay”

Stay there from the 15 - 19th Mar with mum, cab drivers have not problem finding the hotel as it is a quite well known japanese business hotel. The room size is just right with free wifi and a working table. Sogo is about 5mins away from the hotel and the rest of the shopping mall and Fengchia is only about 10-15,ims cab ride from the hotel. Breakfast is pretty decent with some changes daily and you can even takeaway your coffee. The only thing that bother me was the horrible soft pillow. Other than that, 52 Hotel is worth the money.

Exceptional”

To be perfectly honest, we only stayed for one night since we’re going to Taipei the next few days. Hence, their service was great! We had a private tour scheduled so when we arrived at the hotel around 11am, staffs helped us to keep our luggage since check in time was few hours more. When we got back at the hotel around 7pm, they told us that we don’t need to worry about the luggage as they already placed it in our room(initiatively) also upgraded our room too. They were very kind to suggest a taxi order as we had to leave the next day very early. Location was perfect for us (only been using taxi and uber). When we go back to Taichung, we’ll stay here again!

Very Nice”

Overall a very good experience. I stayed in building b and it was great! Huge room and everything is in good condition. Good sound insulation as I rarely heard noises inside the room. The staff was very polite. The location is good enough since taichung still not yet have metro. There is a BRT station a few minutes walk away from the hotel. I will definitely stay there again if I visit taichung next time.

Happy stay at Christmas ”

It was a very good hotel because the toilet was very good, we had a comfortable night even though we could only stay for one night. The beds were super comfortable. I think this 4 star hotel ( 52 hotel ) has a very good performance.

Great hotel for its value”

I came to this hotel instead of staying with my parents because I don't have to feel bad having AC on while I'm in the room and taking 3+ showers a day. The hotel is really nice, clean, and new for the cost. Staff is excellent. Location is pretty good. Walking distance to the National Museum of Science and Calligraphy Greenway. (Although 10 minutes walk in August in Taichung City is almost the equivalent of hell..) Breakfast is decent. There's also a 7-11 next door so that's convenient. Also walking distance to Sogo and a busy area with lots of restaurants. Highly recommend.

Nice hotel for the money”

This is a really nice hotel for the low price I paid. Staff was awesome. As good as it gets for a 3 star hotel. Only negative was the toilet. The room was too small and very hard to use, but thats a very minor problem. This will be one of my go to hotels when visiting Taichung in the future.

pleasant and comfortable”

It was a pleasant stay. We booked a quad room for a family of 4 and the room is clean,huge and comfortable. Breakfast was good. Location wise is near Sogo and a Science Museum (walking distance). The hotel is near TaiChung train/bus station or Fengjia night market which is approximately NT 150 to get to these places by cab. The staff is very attentive and helpful in helping us to get taxi. Will consider staying in this hotel again.

Spacious and budget hotel”

There were our first visit to Taichung. Hotel 52 is located just next to the Taichung main street. We were surprised with the spacious room space at the budgeted price. Staff is nice and shows willing to help. Free parking of this urban hotel is also bonus to us.

Better than expected”

Didn't expect much from a hotel called 52. It far exceeded my expectations. Took the Standard Single room. Room was comfortable, bathroom was clean. There was a separate shower and bathtub section. Toilet seats were heated. Welcome drink was nice to have. Within walking distance to shopping areas. 7-11 is next door. There is a pool table just next to reception. They were doing some renovation so the gym was temporarily put in two corner rooms, but that was fine. Staff were friendly. Overall a hotel with CHARACTER.

Super Polite Staff and Cean!”

The staff at 52 Hotel were super polite and friendly. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the bed was comfortable. I would definitely stay there again
