Great staff! Extremely helpful!”

Though I have no idea what possessed me to go to Yilan, I found Kavalan an amazing hotel to stay at. The staff were very helpful from the start, helping us with directions and even tried to help us carry our ridiculously overweight baggage to a holding area for us. The staff were also readily there to provide us the hotel bikes and even though they said that after a certain time there would be a per hour charge, when we came back about an hour or so later than the stipulated time, they didn't bother charging us a cent. In fact, thought he bike I used broke down, when we got back, they were extremely apologetic for the bike and offered us free locals goodies for the trouble we went through. So overall, while I have no idea why anyone in the right mind would ever want to come to Yilan to look at the boring scenery and cycle through a dead town, if you ever find yourself here, Kavalan Hotel is the best place to go. Hands down.

Wonderful services of extra miles”

our commendations to hotel staff at kavalan hotel during our holiday stay from 26th-28th december 2011. they are well trained hospitality professionals. they presented the best and above excellent on its services, the precinct's recommendation and local travel to not-to-be-missed scenic and historical interest areas.  also guiding to local most-sought-after food. more touching is, to have bought us near-missed local favorite delicacies. we will widely recommend to our friends to stay at  kavalan hotel, who will be visiting yilan.

Comfortable and Affordable”

I enjoyed my stay at the Kavalan Hotel which is just a stone throw away from the Yilan train station, it's nearby the Luodong night market. Love the friendliness of the staffs working there, always ready to answer our enquiries.

Second time stay and will come back again”

This is our second time stay with Kavalan. It's very close to Loudong night market and the famous nobel cake shop. The family room is big and very comfortable for 4. It comes with 1 queen and 2 twin beds. It may be a hotel hotel but they have tried to keep it's cleanliness at its best. Reasonable price too.

We booked a room for 4 pax and were allocated a room with 2 double beds. Room is very spacious with ample space for kids to run around. Toilet is just as spacious, with option to use the bathtub or the shower ( which is located at separate corner of the toilet ). Location is superb as it is just a few minutes walk to the famous luodong night market. Breakfast was good with decent Chinese / western spread suitable for all ages. No complaints overall. Very satisfied and will return if coming here again. Just minor point to note, there’s no shelter from the car drop off point to the hotel lobby so we were caught in the rain when we reached the hotel on a rainy day.

Very convenient location ”

Hotel is about 10min walk from the train station but it is right behind Luodong night market which makes it an excellent location. Spacious and comfortable room although dated. Breakfast buffet was sumptuous and offers the best variety out of the 4 hotels I had stayed in during my Taiwan trip. I would stay here again if I return to Luodong.

NIce hotel in good location”

The hotel triple room was reasonable size, comfortable and clean. Service was also good as our requests were attended to promptly. It is very close to the Luodong night market (the best in Yilan, I heard)where one can enjoy shopping and eating really great local food. It is about 10 minutes slow walk with luggage from the train station.

decent, centrally located hotel”

I would stay here again on another trip to Luodong. The hotel is located near to the night market and other amenities and seems to be the tallest hotel in town. The breakfast buffet with a view over the town was a highlight. The parking garage was an interesting experience as I'd never used a car lift before, and having instructions shouted in dialect added to the fun.

Great location with big room”

Hotel is clean with big room and very near to railway station and Luodong night market. You may take bus or Take taxi to the Natiional Centre For Traditional Arts and Donshan River Water Park. You may also try to take a train to nearby Su Ao Station to try the the cold spring - Nt 450 for 40 minutes , private room.

Small hotel with standard facilities”

My friend and me stayed at Kavalan Hotel for 1 night on route to Hualien the next day. We chose the Hotel as it is near the Luodong night market. There's the famous Nobel Cake house which is near the Hotel as well, 7-11 or Family Mart is also nearby. Standard room, decent size, reasonable price, so dun expect too much. It's around 10 to 15 min walk from the train station.

Good location and friendly staffs.”

My first time to Taiwan, read review on Kavalan and decided to book for 2nights. The room we had interior looks old but is big n spacious. Overall, we are satisfied with our stay.

Great location w good facilities but older hotel”

The hotel service is good while the staying was enjoyable as it is very close to the LuoDong night market. The hotel is quite easy to locate but please ask around with the chinese name as nobody will know their english hotel name. 宜泰大饭店 I will choose to go back this hotel though the hotel is quite aging.

Very comfortable, clean hotel”

I would highly recommend staying at the Kavalan. They had the best pillows! It's easy to find from the train station. Just walk straight down the street for about 4 blocks.

short stay at yilan”

we picked this hotel to spend 2 says sightseeing at yilan & trip to taroke gorge. the hotel is within walking distance to train station and yilan night market. it is easy for travellers who need a stopover from other vistis in taiwan. the hotel is neat, clean and simply furnished and reasonabe for the price we pay.

great location”

With the famous luodong night market just behind the hotel, the Luodong train station within walking distance, location is excellent. An old hotel but still clean.... not much choice here in Luodong... so i guess its pretty ok.. I won't stay for more than a night though

Good location and clean room”

We booked a triple room with a big bed plus a single bed. The room is spacious and clean but not much of a good view from the room though we stayed on the 9th floor. There is secured parking at the basement if you are driving. Also, the hotel is within walking distance to Luodong Night Market, so it saves you the trouble of driving there and finding a parking lot. Breakfast spread was quite good in the morning with Taiwanese porridge spread and Western spread too.

One of the best hotels in Luodong”

room is spacious and clean, and being one of the taller buildings in the area, rooms on the higher floors offer a good view of the town of luodong. across the street, there is a seven-eleven for visitors to grab anything they need at anytime of the day.

Conveniently located and great service”

I will definitely go back to Kavalan Hotel. We enjoyed our stay.

Not a bad hotel to stay at ”

Typical Hotel facilities were provided however the hairdryer was not working very well. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our room has a nice view of the city of Luotong, Yilan. Breakfast provided was good with a relatively wide range of Taiwanese food to choose from.

Good location and comfort ”

Very good, will choose Kavalan Hotel when visit Yilan next time
