Love At First Sight!”

it has been a long day for us, trudging from hsinchu to taoyuan and then finally to taipei. in our ride down to taipei city, none of us were in any mood for anything other than a refreshing shower and a good nap. for me, i was slapped with a stinging headache which was probably a cocktail concoction of work, stress, fatigue and a limo with a real bad suspension to shake it all up! upon our arrival, our driver told us "here you are", i was like "where is the hotel?"! amongst the hustling and bustling ant-like human traffic, the driver pointed out a slick glass door entrance to us, next to a funky stairway. in my tired mind, i was like, "well what have we got ourselves into?" a light push on the glass door.a whole new world was unveiled! seriously, it's like walking from insanity to fantasy (in my own opinion). behind these glass door, we were greeted with nothing but the sweetest and friendliest personalities in the hotel, and i meant everyone (kudos to the lovely one in pink sweat suit)!. from the very entrance to the farthest end of the hallway, the hotel lobby was decked out to the brim, busting with cool led colored ambience lights, nice simple lounge seats and a to-die-for atmosphere! checking in was definitely flawless, we just submitted our passports and next thing we were shuffled to the lounge seats, served with a cold glass of ice water to let our mind forget about the "sorry" ride we just had. within 5 minutes, our room keys were ready and our rendezvous with inhouse hotel begins. having stayed in many hotels, franchise to global chain, zero stars to boutiques. the hotel rooms here has just about anything for any kind of travelers, i mean they even got the right personalities to deal with me! the furnishings and ambience of the rooms, bathrooms, bathtub and shampoo are just top-shelf! sum it up, this hotel has all the great touches, but its the beautiful and sweet people that did it all. yes! this hotel is already in my must stay lis

Most conformtable stay during my trip”

I had stayed in Inhouse Hotel a year ago and initially wanted to book this hotel throughout my 6 days tip in Taipei but was not able to do so. We ended up having to stay in 5 different hotels throughout the trip. Even though I got a chance to try out the new hotels, Inhouse Hotel is the best out of the accommodations we have stayed, even my friend agreed on this. The hotel, even though it is smaller that some of the hotels, is well designed. From the rainshower bath to the Locitanne toiletries to a full length mirror and the comfortable bed and blanket, you can see much effort have been put in, As the hotels check in time are usually at 3pm or after and we had checked out of the hotels by 12 noon, we usually leave our luggage at the next hotel and went out for sightseeing and then come back to the hotel to pick up our luggage. Inhouse hotel is the one hotel throughout our trip that informed us that our luggage had been sent to our allocated rooms when we have returned. This really save us the hassle of lugging the heavy luggage up to our room. The breakfast is good for value and when we informed the staff that we will be checking out early in the wee hours in the morning, they offered to pack breakfast for us. Well value for money. Will definitely book this hotel again on my next trip.

Modern and hip”

we were glad to have chosen inhouse hotel for our stay in taipei. the reception staff were extremely friendly and always with a smile, although the level of english comprehension was a bit hit and miss. i must add this wasn't a problem for us however if you don't like to have to repeat yourself, you may this a problem. the room is nice with contemporary style. the bed is firm without being hard. we really liked the style of the room. the bathroom is compact, but practical enough. the rainforest style shower is amazing. the only comment we would make regarding the room is there is no bathroom door .... maybe a problem if you're sharing with a friend. l'occitan prodicts are offered which is a nice touch. cleanliness in the hotel is excellent. the hotel is situated about a 10 minute walk from xiamen station. there are a lot of small restaurants and fast food chains (both eastern and western) in the area. there is a trendy looking bar in the hotel but only seems busy at weekends. the breakfast is good and offers mainly eastern options (apart from a croissant). the filter coffee is great. i was very surprised by it. all in all, we highly recommend inhouse hotel. it's a great balance of price and comfort.

trendy, brilliant and excellent!!!!”

as a frequent busines traveler i wil definitely recommend "inhouse hotel" located at the centre of taipei - ximendeng. service/reception: omg, they are sooo friendly! girls are pretty and guys good looking........apparently the hotel has a "personalized image stylist". they're not just vase but very professional and sweet. housekeeping: room design was spectacular and cosy. very clean and furnitures well set. thumbs up for the housekeepers! breakfast: very good! variety of choices. esp.spoilt with bread choices. congee was made just right, not too watery. excellent variety! location: perfect! 5 mins walk to mrt. in the heart of lively & convenient district for loads of different choice of food (esp. local traditional nibbles)and shopping (until 11:30pm) overall review: will definitely recommend to friends and colleagues. not only value for money, but the design of this unique, trendy & beautiful hotel is worth longer stay. love the design -and love the lobby, which at night time is a lounge bar. last of all, which made my trip so worth it, was i booked with reception an escort to the international airport (1hr away)from taipei. it only cost me ntd.$ = gbp ....to my surprise, wow, the hotel subcontract all airport escort by mercedes benz s-class! i felt like a vip!!!!

An acceptable level of comfort stay.”

I stayed at Inhouse Hotel twice during my stay in Taiwan this time. For the first part of my stay, i booked an Elite room and had a really pleasant experience staying there. The Elite room is suitably size for a comfortable stay for two. It is rather roomy and you can easily pack or unpack your luggage in the Elite room. Furthermore, its toilet is spacious and is equipped with bathtub. I am unsure if it is because we had booked an Elite room (better room), we were allowed earlier check in for our stay. For the second part of the trip, i booked a standard room in Inhouse Hotel. Sadly, the standard room only indeed provide the very standard requirements. The room size is just sufficient for one to sleep (One can hardly pack luggage, walk about or eat in the room). In addition, the toilet for its standard room is relatively small and gives a feeling of insecurity as it is glass based which means you can look into the streets of Ximending should you not draw the curtains in your toilet. This is one of the cons of the room and also obviously it does not have a bath tub for standard room. Other con points include - We were unable to check in early for our stay (when we booked the standard room) and the breakfast Inhouse Hotel provided was disappointing. Out of the 4 days i was there, i only ate the free breakfast once. Other than these, the room is good for a standard stay. However, i would recommend everyone to stay in the Elite room instead due to the difference in comfort level by paying a bit extra. Some other details of Inhouse Hotel includes its close vicinity to the Ximen MRT station (about 7 mins walk) and its convenient location within the streets of Ximending. This means easy access to shopping! Furthermore, there are alot of restaurants, roadside stalls and convenience shops in the vicinity thus it is easily accessible to food. Overall, I had a comfortable stay in Inhouse Hotel and thanks to all the friendly staffs of the hotel, i had a pleasant experience.

inhouse boutique-classy stay, excellent location!”

This was my second stay and we were fortunate enough to get a free upgrade to their more exclusive second branch, inhouse boutique, which has more spacious, luxurious rooms. While inhouse Hotel's location is great, inhouse boutique's is even better, much closer to Ximen MRT station. It is also a quieter, more exclusive hotel with fewer rooms. Love the deep and spacious bathtub, L'Occitane toiletries, the contemporary room decor (glass see-through wardrobe!) and the fact that the hotel is small and quiet, yet so close to the heart of Ximending. Staff were extremely helpful in giving us directions to eating places, attractions and making reservations on our behalf. Would definitely pick inhouse (of course boutique is preferred though inhouse Hotel is good too!) for my next Taipei stay. Note: breakfast spread at inhouse boutique is less than inhouse Hotel, due I think to the size of the breakfast venue and kitchen.

Trendy cozy hotel”

Our stay at InHouse Taipei is excellent! Definitely a great choice of hotel! Room looks just exactly like how we saw on the website! Upon reaching the hotel at it's original branch, we were told that we have been upgraded to the new branch located nearer to XiMenDing MRT. Since it was raining quite heavily that evening, the staff have offered to call a cab (paid by them) to bring us over to the new branch. The new branch area was way nearer, right in the heart of XiMenDing, which made finding food and shopping nearer/easier. Staffs were nice, greeted and explained to us about the wifi usage, breakfast and coupons for us to redeem drinks at the cafe in the lobby. Definitely will choose InHouse again in our future visits to Taipei!

Well located and value for money”

This review is more for Inhouse Boutique than Inhouse Hotel itself. Four of us booked two Elite Double rooms for 3 nights but upon arrival, we got transferred to its sister hotel, Inhouse Boutique, instead. Since it was much nearer to the Ximen MRT station and the room facilities were comparable if not better than the main hotel, it worked out well. Overall, we were quite happy with the stay. Location, which was within 50m or so away from Ximen Station and right at the door step of Ximending, was definitely a plus. Rooms were clean and spacious for the price we paid. Breakfast was decent as you get to choose from 8 different sets. Only hiccup we encountered during our stay was a power failure on our first night which took more than an hour to fix. No much harm done though. Hotel could also do with more umbrellas for its guests to borrow as well.

Best Hotel in Taipei that I've ever stayed before!”

This is my third time travelling to Taipei. The hotels that I've stayed before previosly was not satisfying at all.They are all kinda old and cleanliness is also not up to expectation.It could be that I was with tour before that and they are only providing me the basic accomodation with cheap as the main concern. This time round, I travelled with my husband on our own and we book this Inhouse Hotel through Agoda. We saw this newly opened hotel in Ximending and decided to give it a try. Wow...This hotel is really great, the room is so comfortable.The toilet is amazing. They even provide you Loccitane products for your shower needs.I give a 10/10 to this lovely hotel.

Cheap, Clean, Super Convenient, Free Internet”

Being a frequent travelers to taipei, you can't beat the price of Inhouse Hotel if you want a budget hotel which is newer, clean, centrally located, includes a basic breakfast, and smoke free rooms (many hotels have smoky rooms). Hotel is just a short 5 minute walk from the subway station, located in the center of one of the main shopping districts. Surrounded by hundreds of local eateries. Its a great location if you plan on doing sight seeing around the city. Check in and out process was fast, staff were attentive, English is not their first language so don't expect a big warm welcome. Don't expect a view from your hotel room as the city is crowded! Most small hotels don't have bell boys. Would recommend this hotel if you plan on being in the area.

Fantastic boutique hotel. ”

Hotel is about a 5-10min walk away from Ximen MRT. We were previously staying in another hotel which cost around the same but we we sorely disappointed, thought it was just extremely close to the MRT station. Once we moved to inHouse Hotel, we fell in love with it right away! We spent 3nights there. Wonderful shower, wonderful bed, extremely high tech toilet, good quality shampoos, all in a well designed room. Though it wasn't a huge room, it was still cozy. (especially compared with the previous hotel we stayed in) Staff are friendly. Though because the reception counter is not really facing the entrance, so u'll only be greeted if u walk up to the reception. Not really an issue though. We tried the breakfast provided one morning. felt it was quite a waste of time. It wasn't awful, it's just that if u head out of the hotel and walk abit, u'll find alot of street stalls and even Ay Chung Mee Sua (which is awesome!). so there's no real need to eat at the hotel. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. and it was the perfect place to come back and unwind after a full day running around Taipei. A very stylish and modern boutique hotel!

My Repeated Stay”

Staying in Taipei means staying at Inhouse hotel. Theres no doubt about it. The facilities, location, cleanliness are uncomparable. Indeed, I attempted to find other hotels on my own when I visited Taipei again, but still I went back to Inhouse because the location is centralised but not noisy, spacious and clean at the same time. When I checked in, I also asked for another room so that my friend can stay too. The receptionist gave me a generous discount on that room. It was awesome. My wife and I visit Taipei rather regularly and we have been staying in this hotel for the past 4 visits. Not regrets. Confirmed value for money.

Gem in Taipei”

I only stayed one night at Inhouse Hotel in Taipei and wished I had stayed longer. I am very satisfied with the experience. It's a lovely design hotel, my room is spacious with classy furnitures. Cleanliness was superb. The hotel is located in the centre of the city, at Ximending where you can find different shops and eateries which opens till late. Wifi speed was great. The only con can think of is that the corridor is a bit dark and it makes its a bit difficult to find the key card slot at first.

Great location and service”

inhouse hotel taipei definitely impressed both myself and my girlfriend. from the funky design style in the hall/room/cafe to the brandings of the equipments used, be it in the cafe or rooms. my personal favorite - bose / bang & olufsen digital speaker dock for ipod/ iphone, my girlfriend's favorite - l'occitane bath products. the service staffs were warm and helpful in our inquiries and made our stay an enjoyable one. we also appreciate the complimentary wifi as we can check on the tourist hotspots every night without the hassle of traveling down to the lobby to use the computers. lastly, we will make inhouse hotel the preferred choice when we return next time, not forget to mention that we will recommend to our friends and family.

Best Place to stay in Ximending Shopping District”

I had a fantastic stay at Inhouse hotel during my stay in Taipei. I was granted an early check as per request with a room view. The staff was so nice and attentive. It was such a breeze dealing from check in to check out. They have an executive lounge where you can have some coffee, tea, snacks fruit etc to take advantage. The choices are okay and the area is cozy to relax for awhile. I like how the room looks very modern and for a solo traveler it is very comfortable. I have the room view of the street and I don hear any noise at all. The cleanliness is to be noted and my room smelled good. It is approximately 10 minutes walk to Ximen station. You can do a lot of things at night time because the place is so vibrant and buzzling with energy from tourists and locals. The elevator has some edm music like you're gonna party all the way up!

Great location”

For first time tourists to Taiwan, be sure to check out Inhouse Hotel. I like the location - it's 'in' Ximending but you're not smack in the middle of the madness. Approx 10minutes walk to the station. Easy to get cabs if you wish. I first stayed here in 2012, so to be back after 5 years and find it as good as it was is fantastic. Only thing to note - the rooms are small, as most hotels in Taipei are. Enjoy your stay at inhouse!

Clean, classy and cool hotel”

We spent 4 nights in Taiwan but it was unfortunate that we only stayed in this hotel for our last night. We had just returned to Taipei from Hualien and took the train to Ximen station. The hotel wasn't hard to find and it has many good food places and shopping all around. We had an especially awesome dinner one night at a nearby hotpot restaurant called MA LA, so value for money and so delicious! I was OBSESSED with the heated toilet seat and was very impressed that the hotel had such a feature. They also provide L'occitane products for our shower needs. The pillows and bed were extremely comfortable and the free wifi was very fast! We had complimentary breakfast the next morning at the cafe on the second floor before flying off the Hong Kong. I would definitely return to inhouse Hotel if I ever visit Taipei again!

Fantastic hotel with great ambience”

conveniently located at ximending (located a 5-minute walk from ximen mrt train station, and a 5-minute drive from taipei railway station), inhouse hotel offers stunning design, elegance and romance in each individually created room. in a comfortable, intimate and welcoming setting to recreate the atmosphere of the 1940′s – 1950′s. great ambience with brilliant innovative use of led luminescent lighting, plate glass windows and mirrors, vibrant colours, stunning bidasar brown marble flooring from india complemented with hand-crafted baroque style mahogany furniture. service staff offers quality customer service. full of smiles and are polite. definitely worth staying!

Good location, good room amenities”

my husband and i went to taipei for a 7-day free & easy trip, and we chose to stay in inhouse hotel for 5 out of our 6 nights there. location is great, only about 5 mins walk from ximen mrt station, and just at the edge of the always bustling ximending shopping district. after reading all the reviews available here about the good hotel staff services, i was having pretty high expectations, but i feel they were only so-so, nothing extraordinary. the female staff do wear really short mini skirts, so families with kids may not like that. breakfast was like what others have said, taste was ok but not much variety and interval between topping up was a little long. i noticed they change perhaps 1 or 2 of the dishes every 2 days but i was getting tired of their breakfast by our 5th morning there. the reception was kinda dark, probably because their ground floor is also their lounge/bar. not a big issue with us, though i feel they could make the counter area more spacious, as it feels a little cramp especially during check in and out when we have our bulky luggages with us. not to mention if there're other guests waiting there as well. despite all that i've mentioned above, i absolutely adore our room! it's not big, but it feels nice and cozy. i love the decor, the furnishings, the toiletries they provide (l'occitane!), and everything else that you can expect to get in a proper hotel room. i never thought i would say this but the toilet was my favourite spot. o_o the designs and lightings are great, and there's the toto toilet bowl! (if you've never used one before, it's those with seat warming, washing and blow-drying functions.) there is no lock on the toilet door though, so if you're travelling with friends, co-workers or whomever, do take note. all in all, we felt very comfortable with our room, and i even felt a little sad when we had to leave. definitely would consider staying in this hotel again if we return to visit taipei next time!

It was so good, we came back again!”

Being a fussy traveller, I am very particular when it comes to lodging. We may not be spending much time in the room as we tend to travel around more often but having a good night rest is crucial to enjoy holiday and therefore, every return to Taipei, I would stay in inHouse. We always stayed at Elite Double, the room and the toilet are spacious. Bed is comfortable and all furnitures all well-maintained. Not a sign of ageing catching up. Location is conveniently located at the heart of ximending, a quick 5-10 mins walk from ximen exit 6. inhouse is so good, I'm coming back again in March. See you!
