Perfect place to stay in Kaohsiung”
This hotel is probably the best in Taiwan! 😄 Location is perfect as it is near Formosa station and Lihue night market. The entire place smells fresh and it is clean. The staff, especially the front desk is so accommodating and friendly. I love the idea of no fuzz self check out. And lastly, the free food at the 6th floor is amazing; they are so generous. If I ever get to go back in Kaohsiung I will stay here again. Thank you Start Hotel for making my stay a wonderful experience. Much love from the Philippines.

Very homely and welcoming”
Start hotel may be little hard to find as it's considered off the main road. Once you find it, you will be amazed at the generosity that the owners have lavished with the place. Fully stocked pantry, free laundry services and cable tv in all rooms. strongly recommended!

Strategic location with 24-hour free supply of food”
This hotel located in the strategic location near to Formosa Boulevard stations. Where you can easily opt for orange-line or red-line MRT, as this is the interchange station. Furthermore, the hotel also have a kitchen or pantry with 24-hour non stop supply of foods and snacks. There are homemade pudding prepared and kept in the freezer, as well as fruits, instant noodle, can drinks, breads and sometime frozen fried rice. This is rare offer that you would hardly find even in a luxury hotel. The pantry itself equipped with a huge TV too, where you may enjoy your meal while watching the movie. Last but not least, there hass washing machine too, and you may do the laundry, at same time enjoying the food and watching the movies, as all of them are at same floor. What a convenient arrangement by the owner! Thumbs up!

Convenient ”
It is near to FengJia night market and the Formosa MRT. Hence, getting anywhere in Gaoshiung is pretty easy. The pantry provides various kind of instant noodle, drinks (beers and soft drink) and biscuit at no cost. Definately a plus point for a boutique hotel with this kind of pantry.

Loved it”
The tea selection in the kitchen/cafe is stunning. The fridge jelly pots and fresh fruits are such a bonus. I really enjoyed staying here. I stayed in a private single room which is tiny with no window, essentially a bed and nightstand. It was great except the air conditioning was too cold for me at 23C. Aside from that, it was a lovely place and I would return.

Great location value for money”
Very friendly staff, was offered a free upgrade as there was a vacant room that was much bigger than the one we booked. Great location as it is few minutes walk from Formosa Boulevard station. The room even had Wii console which we discover in the drawer.

Very good.”
I booked single room with shared bathroom. Interesting concept, and the lounge offers free food including instant noodles and spagetti. 5 mins walk to night market and MRT station, cosy and comfortable. The only complaint would be they use really strong air freshener, I almost got allergic to it.

Excellent stay near Farmosa MRT”
Very near Farmosa MRT (exit 10 without escalator, exit 4 with escalator) and Liu He night market. Room and bed a bit small but come with fridge and a massage chair(massaging your bum only). Wifi is fast and steady. Snacks (instant noodle, drinks and biscuits) provided on 2nd floor. Not really soundproof but guests have been cautioned and thus not much of disturbance...still had good sleep.

Friendly service + self service pantry ”
The stay was really a special experience for me and my family. Their 6th floor pantry is free flow concept, for free. Hence travellers will gather there and that’s how we met many new friends from different countries!
