Traveling to Taiwan? Find Tainan City hotels

Our stay was right before- and during a typhoon, so we were glad that there was a LED TV in the room. Whereas the accomodation is maybe average, the owner is a great guy if you speak (some) Chinese- he helped us a lot if we needed/wanted something. He even drove us to a scooter rental place that he knew and pressed the lady for some discount. She ended up giving us a 30% discount and we drove some cheap scooters around Anping (which is at abt 5-10 mins on an electrical scooter.) If you're looking for marble walls, golden toilets and butlers clipping your toenails, skip this place. If you're looking for great price/quality and very friendly service, this place should be at the top of your list!

Small dorm with only four beds so it was perfect. Clean room and clean bathroom. Near the train station (10min by walking) and there are two buses that goes near the seaside (5min by walking). The owner is really kind and he does his best to help people or create a social atmosphere in this hostel ( he arranged a meeting for the backpackers during my stay) I dont think I could have a better stay in Tainan elsewhere, so highly recommended.

As a well travelled person who frequents these type of budget accommodations, you really notice when places do things right. After a long day of sightseeing, there are some things that are musts, as well as things that make life easier. Easy Inn delivers on both. The rooms are clean, modern and well appointed, so they are already off to a good start. I love a nice hot shower, and unlike a lot of Taiwan's cheaper accommodation, our room had a very big shower, with sliding glass doors, lots of hot water and a nice big mirror. But there are two selling points for this accommodation that set it apart - The free laundry and the rooftop area. As most travelers know, after a couple of days of living out of a small suitcase, you always scramble for a Laundromat. However, it can often be hard to find, especially self service 24 hours. This hotel has 3 machines that are free to use, in a dedicated laundry space. In terms of the rooftop, it is a cool place to go and hang out at night, and see the Tainan city lights, or have breakfast in the morning. The only sour note that we had concerns the breakfast. We stayed for two nights. First night, not a problem. The breakfast is in a dedicated dining area, and it was simple, tasty and plentiful. HOWEVER, on the second day, we had planned our check out so that we would have everything packed, and just jump up and grab breakfast before leaving. However, breakfast only seems to be provided in the hotel during weekends - otherwise they give you a voucher for a restaurant downstairs! Now, this would normally be fine with us, however we were not told about this at any time, and in our case, it ruined our timeline for our trip, so we had to get breakfast elsewhere. This miscommunication may have come because of the limited English spoken in the counter. That said, apart from this, we experienced a great stay in Easy Inn, and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting budget accommodation.

Overall my review for this hotel is okay, the room is clean, the bed is okay, location is nearby with convenience stores, bus stops, restaurants and night markets. We arrived in this hotel very early, around 9am, but we cannot check in until 3pm. It was a tiring day for us and we havent slept properly for 24 hours. So, we felt a little bit disappointed. Rather than walk, we were thinking to ride the bike to visit some areas, and we surprised to hear the rent for the bike. How to get here: from THSR station, look for the free shuttle bus stop, and drop off in Tainan city hall and take taxi from there to the hotel. the price is around 85-100 NT. the taxi fare from THSR station to the hotel is 500NT.

Really enjoyed my stay there, really enjoyed Tainan. Would love to return to this city for more, and would definitely consider staying there again. Booked a double room, spacious, plenty of room for 2 big luggages. With table and side table. Toilet is cleaner than the picture seems, really satisfied with that. The lobby area is a gem. Full of books, magazines, pamphlets, things to entertain you and let you know more about Tainan or anywhere. Really interesting! Spent my night fiddling with the materials there. Staffs are the most most most helpful people I've met. Nice and polite! Only they don't work 24hrs, so please settle what you need to ask before they knock off. Location is superb. Just rent their bicycle and ride around. Plenty of alleys to go into and explore!

Its an only female allowed hostel. Had a came back home feeling when I stay there for 3 nights. Feeling great to stay here. Usage of washing machine is free, but they don't have dryer. Able to hang your cloth at their shuttled roof top. So no worries, it might catch the rain. Able to use anything in their pantry and their toiletries corner. There are 2 ways to get back to the hostel. One of the way, at night it might be a little dark. The other way is brighter. Just don't get back too late ;)

Check-in is done in another building 1 km away from the dorm. And I have been told to go to the wrong one (in Mandarin, I received the English clarification way too late). Thankfully, a local helped me, but this was by far the most complicated check-in I've done. Coupled with the fact that Wifi only works for Facebook, that there is no staff present and that you have to go back to the other building for check-out (with all your luggage), it really wasn't a good experience. Please don't go there if you don't know Mandarin, the 2 bucks you save are really not worth it. Location is good, though.

I hesitated a lot before booking this hostel coz obvious it is really cheap and facilities look dated. But I will stay here again next time in Tainan. The atmosphere is great, hotel next to train station, everything is clean and staff is great. I personally saw the staff clean the facilities like every hour the night I stayed there. Staff told / invited me to join the nighty event, they have different events every night, I think there is a schedule posted next to the front desk office. I didn’t have time to enjoy the breakfast, but I did enjoy the 2nd floor and basemen common rooms, especially the basement, so cozy and spacious. After the nighty event, when almost everyone left, I took the sofa all for myself, did a 30 mins stretch, and read one of the books they provide (it’s like a little book treasure hunt). I thought the bed won’t be comfortable, yet I stand corrected, I slept like a baby. I enjoy my stay here a lot, so vibrant, alive and young. So, don’t be timid by some comments and photos. Book here!

Stayed at the female dorm for two nights. - Good Location: 3-min walk to Tainan train station and to a street full of local foodies. - The hostel is very new and clean. Stylishly furnished common area and kitchen. Dorm room was big, with table and chair inside the dorm room. There were spaces to put things beside each dorm bed. Lockers are huge enough to put everything including the big backpack and suitcase in too. Wifi was fast and air con was adequate. The shared bathroom was clean and shampoo, soap and conditioner were provided. - Staff was helpful and kind. I had my room changed because the locker was not functioning. Even though breakfast was not included, there were a lot of budget options around the area or you can cook yourself in the kitchen. Considering everything and the low price, it's the best hostel I stayed at in Taiwan.

We chose the Tai Dao hotel both for its location, just opposite the Tainan train station, and its very reasonable price! We were travelling from Chiayi to Tainan by train, then onwards to Kaohsiung also by train, so the location was ideal. Exiting the train station, you are confronted with a very large and very busy roundabout - this serves in part as Tainan’s bus terminal. Looking across the road you’ll see the building in which the Tai Dao hotel is located, on the right side of the roundabout when facing it from the train station. There are two underpasses from the train station, those with heavy luggage should take the one on the left side of the roundabout as this one has lifts, up and down - then cross two intersections (controlled by lights) to get to the tall curved building that houses the Tai Dao hotel (plus a couple of food outlets, a 7Eleven, another hotel, and more). The Tai Dao hotel reception is on the ground floor to the right side of the building when facing the building. The underpass on the right side of the roundabout will bring you out closer to the hotel, but the steps are quite steep! With its location, you have easy access to trains and buses in Tainan, plus plenty of taxis readily available. The bus that takes you to the Flower Night Market (Tainan’s largest) stops right outside the hotel. There are plenty of restaurants in the streets around the hotel, and you can walk to many of the sights for which Tainan is renowned (we walked to the Confucius Temple, to the Chihkan Tower, and more). Check in was quick and easy. We were advised that each day we would need to present at reception to collect our breakfast vouchers for the following day. Breakfast vouchers included two coffee/tea vouchers plus two TWD60 coupons for use at the 7Eleven. We found the TWD60 was more than enough for a decent breakfast to start the day. We could get up to four sandwiches, or two hot meals (pre-packaged, heated up when purchased), or a number of buns/cakes - we

365 hostel is located pretty near the Tainan TRA station. About 5 mins taxi ride or 20 minutes walk from the station. It is also located near many amazing Tainan local eateries and near some pretty good cocktail bars like TCRC and Longbar. The owner and his staff are very friendly and will chat you up. If you ask, they might go for a drink with you and tell you where to go for good food. The boss is an interior designer and he is a great person to have a conversation with. Very comfortable and homely vibes for 365 hostel.

Generally, we had good experiences for the staying. The host offers cokes at such lower prices for all guests. The rooms have modern design with good and clean decoration Parking lots are at a broad parking space near by. However, there was some water leaking issues at the corner of the wall from the room's water heater closet (at the room's loft). It leaked water to the living room space at night when we took shower. And, as our room at 1F, the shower waste water from the upper rooms poured out at our shower room's drain. We have informed the host of this condition, and the host agreed to investigate the case with nice attitude. Hope there will be improvements.

it's my first time staying at hostel in Taiwan (I'm Taiwanese and usually book a suite). at the beginning, i'm worry about sharing room with strangers and the cleaness of the hostel. when i arrived You Lyu, i just realized that there is nothing should worry about. My friends and I stay at a dorm with restroom for 8 girls. first, the host, Mr. Wang, is also an artist, is nice and friendly. he introduced us some hot spots in Tainan and it's really helpful. the hostel open since 2013, so all the facilities are new and clean. third, the bedroom and living room are cozy. there are lots Mr. Wang's works in the hostel and it's cool! the hostel locates at the east district of Tainan, and you can reach the downtown by motorcycle in like 10 mins. overall, my experience staying in You Lyu is good. i will recommend my friends and everyone You Lyu if you'd like to travel Tainan and staying at a hostel.

We stayed at UIJ for a night on our trip to Tainan. The hotel is in the centre of the city and is very close to many attractions (and food!). UIJ only just started this March but is already very well run. The room was beautifully decorated. We have a record player in our room and countless vinyl records to choose from at the reception. Still and sparkling water plus free re-fill! I thought it was a nice touch. All the toiletries were of the highest quality. Breakfast was standard, but I thought it was quite nice to have local food as an option. The greatest part of this hotel has to be its staff! All of them were being extremely friendly and helpful. The service was greater than many 5 star hotels! Very well done! An extremely impressive hotel. Will definitely stay there again next year when we do our annual visit to Tainan!
