Wonderful stay here!”

Prior to our trip, we have read many positive reviews about this hotel and decided to stay here. We booked a large king room and the hotel upgraded us for free to an extra large king room. These are the reasons for staying here: - A pretty new hotel - Excellent service provided by the staff who speak good English - An easy 5-minute walk from Ximen Station - So many good eats and bubble tea stores nearby - Linked to a departmental store that sells L'herboflore products (a popular Taiwanese beauty brand) - Very clean rooms - Spacious rooms - Wide spread of delicious food (local and western cuisines) served at daily buffet breakfast - Love the idea of having a separate toilet and a shower room, which helps us to get ready faster in the mornings - Slippers and bathrobes provided in the room - Widescreen TV on a swivel screen with a wide variety of TV shows screened - Super comfortable bed and pillows (We had such a sleep during the nights!) Only negative point: - The main controls for the lights include the lights at the toilet area and the sleeping area. When I woke up earlier to get ready, I disturbed the sleep of my partner as the lights at the sleeping area were also turned on when I used the toilet/shower area. Thank you for the wonderful experience! We will definitely choose to stay at this hotel again when we revisit Taipei.

Fantastic Room With Great breakfast and Locations ”

Pros : Located In Central Ximending is easy to access foods, shops & the Taipei Metro. Staff was all helpful, courteous, and bubbly to tourist. However there was a Electric maintenance on January 7 from 12.30am to 4.30am . That Agoda did not informed us, which we found out when we arrived at Amba Hotel. the main power supply to all hotels room was cut during the maintenance hour we were without air cons or lights. But we felt the hotel did their best by coming up with contingency plans, by giving out portable fans to reduce the uncomfortable situation to all tourist for their stay. For that we were still pleased with our stay overall definitely we will come back to stay with Amba Hotel should we come back to Taipei for our vacations in near future.

Best staff ever”

The staff were so nice. They helped us to change the room since my sister was so sensitive with the smell. They even gave us an air purifier which was so nice of them. They gave us so much help and did it with smile which made us feel so comfortable whenever we asked for help. The hotel is safe since every guest need a key card to get into the elevator. I would recommend my friends and everyone to stay in this hotel whenever they come to Taipei. The room was clean and fine but the service was the best. Before we leave, they called a taxi for us and helped carry all the luggages to the taxi. How nice of them. :)

Proactive staff”

Our first trip with an infant: staff was proactive to ask if we needed anything to make baby’s stay comfortable. Wasn’t expecting that. I asked if they have a baby’s bathtub and they sent it up to my room, together with a very cute rubber ducky. In comparison, we were having a staycation with baby in a 5-star hotel in Singapore, and nope, staff did not ask if we needed anything for the baby. Thus, I’m truly impressed with the proactive ness and service of the staff at Amba. If this is the SOP of their hotel, good work by the management.

Good for family with young kids”

Amba is about 5mins walking distance to the main walking street of Ximending, which in my opinion, is good as it wont be too noisy or rowdy at night for sleeping. The room is also spacious and comes with a big table, good for family with young kids to place milk bottles, utensils etc. As the hotel forbids cooking in room with portable cooker, they kindly provide us with porridge every morning free for our baby. Thank you for the kind gesture! Room is clean, water pressure is good for bathing, drainage system is good, towels are white (not yellowish). Nothing more to ask for!

Great location and service”

Second time in this hotel since its grand opening a few years ago. We had a great experience the first time but were afraid that the quality would drop after its opening. I am glad that we have chosen this hotel again because they have maintained or even exceeded our expectations. It is located in the heart of Ximending, which is awesome. The rooms are spacious and cleaned every day. I will be staying in this hotel next time when I am back in Taipei for sure!

Excellent hotel!”

I would definitely recommend this hotel! The staff are exceptionally accommodating and friendly. They respond immediately when you have queries about airport transfers, nearby churches, etc. The hotel is also very clean and modern, with an excellent location not far from the train station. One thing I really appreciated was that they surprised me with a cake and banner in my room since it was birthday. Very sweet and they went the extra mile! Would definitely stay here again.

Love AMBA! ”

AMBA is definitely the choice if you want to stay in Ximending. Food and shopping is just at your doorstep! I can go back to hotel to drop my loots and come down again to continue anytime. Loved the spacious and clean room, laundry room, friendly service and they even have table soccer to entertain the kids at the lobby too. Ximen station is also just a few minutes walk away, convenient for travelling via their train station. AMBA is definitely my choice if I go Ximending again.

Best location in the middle of Ximending ”

Located right in the heart of Ximending. Surrounded by loads of shopping , restaurants & street food. 10 minutes walk from Ximen MRT station. The room is comfy, spacious & clean. There’s a free laundromat at 6th floor with softener &detergent provided. Wide variety of food served at breakfast. All in all one of the best hot hotel we have stayed. We’ll definitely come back. Keep it up.

Location a big plus”

Being on a pedestrian street shopping is so convenient esp for our group who are out on day tours daily. All we have to do is freshen up at day’s end, dine out and get into a shopping frenzy. Shops close really late around 10pm or so on weekends. The hotel itself is from 5th floor up, check in and check out is a breeze even for 15 pax. Staff are efficient and friendly, even reminded us to use their umbrellas during wet nights. Hotel rooms are new and sized well, separation of toilet and shower area a really good idea. But I could have been happier with a bidet in toilet. The lower floors are occupied by a not so exciting department store though. Breakfast is sufficient enough to see you through lunch. I will not hesitate recommending this hotel to friends n family.

Great location, spacious room, superb staff”

Located in the midst of XiMenDing where all the shops and restaurants close really late at 11pm. Last min shopping is easily doable. Plenty of massage places and cinemas nearby. Room was very clean and bed was huge. The only down is the breakfast - not great really. One of the worst I ever had in hotels. Suggest to save your money and walk to nearby local food stall for a more authentic experience

Trendy hotel in the heart of Ximending”

Gracious upgrade to spacious superior room with cozy sitting area. Beautiful (modern and sober) design in every part of the hotel. Lovely amenities (including cute flip-flops). Huge lobby around inner courtyard on 5th floor with natural light and interesting decor and objects, it's a nice place to lounge around relaxing or reading. On the same floor, the restaurant Chiba ("(Let's) Eat!") and the bar Heba ("(Let's) Drink!") and great places to dine or sip a cocktail. Right downstairs, Ximending is in full action. What better place to enjoy the energy of this part of Taipei!

Good location”

The location is very good as it is at the center of Ximending. It's just above the shopping center. Got washing machine and dryer to wash clothes and it's free. The room we booked were loft twin where by it was big with 2 super single and 1 living room with sofa bed. There were also 2 TV in each room with many good channel to watch. The water in the bathroom was very good and strong. Very good for me to wash my long hair. Toilet bowl has the washing feature to wash your backside :) The only setback was the window blind that was not able to cover the brightness in the morning!

Great location and love the size of the rooms”

Location of the hotel was excellent. Its right in the middle of Ximending. So it was easy to get around to the area and the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were very big and super comfortable. Will definitely stay there again when I go back to Taipei.

Convenient Getaway”

The hotel is very conveniently located at the heart of Ximending and assessible by the Ximen MRT station. We took a train after landing at the airport and getting to the hotel was a breeze. Hotel was nice and staff were friendly. Although check in was at 3, we did manage to get our rooms at 12pm which was much appreciated as we took a red eye flight into Taipei. Ximending is bustling at night and there is plenty to keep one occupied but the more adventurous can also explore Taipei using the well connected MRT system.

Good location with reasonable price. Raw design neat and clean.”

Good services, staffs akways smiling on face and good attitude . My second time visit. Will come again.

Spacious room with excellent service”

swift check-in service with the firednly staff. Got upgraded to the Loft King room, which is very spacious. King size bed large enough to fit 3 people. also a living room. located at the very centre of ximending. definitely will stay here again.

The best place to be in Taipei”

Amba hotel is situated strategically and conveniently in Ximending for the tourist traveller. It is near an MRT station and of course lots of restaurants a few feet away. A great way to experience Taipei and the hospitality of the Taiwanese people.

超棒”

My favourite hotel in XMD. Nice bed, good service.. Everything is just good about this hotel. Stayed here number of times. Always recommend this hotel to my friends who are going Taipei.

Good services”

The staff are very conscientious especially when they see us travelling with Muslim friends and they asked if we needed a separate breakfast also providing separate utensils. Overall the location is easy access to night market and the staffs are thoughtful and friendly
