🚆 2. High-speed rail (HSR) tickets sell fast
Taiwan’s HSR is incredibly convenient, but holiday weeks are jam-packed.
Reserve online the moment booking opens (usually 28 days ahead).
🍜 3. Some shops close during Lunar New Year
Unlike Malaysia, where most stores reopen quickly, Taiwan’s small businesses may close 2–5 days.
Large malls, convenience stores, and major chains stay open.
🚴 4. Expect more domestic tourists in nature spots
Taiwanese love:
- Sun Moon Lake
- Alishan
- Jiufen
- Kenting
- Hualien/Taroko
During holidays, these spots experience significant local tourist traffic.
🀄 5. Festivals = beautiful photos
Holidays bring:
- Lantern displays
- Outdoor markets
- Cultural shows
- Fireworks
If you love photography, these dates are golden.
🍍 6. Malaysian-friendly food everywhere
Taiwanese cuisine suits Malaysian taste buds:
braised pork rice, scallion pancakes, bubble tea, pepper buns, oyster mee sua.
Even Muslim-friendly restaurants are becoming more common.
Taiwan in 2026 offers plenty of opportunities for Malaysians to enjoy long weekends, cultural festivals, and scenic travel — as long as you plan ahead. Use the leave hacks above, book early, and time your trip around your favorite festival vibes.

The Howard Plaza Hotel, what a grand and auspicious name! It boasts over 40 years of history and a prime location. The Taoyuan Airport bus (Dayou bus) even has a stop right by the hotel's side entrance. We booked a family room, which was spacious and included a delicious and varied breakfast. All the staff were warm, attentive, and provided excellent service. A special thanks to the bellhop, John Huang, for his thoughtful assistance.Dari€ 98

Excellent and very friendly service throughout my entire stay from doorman to concierge to front desk to housekeeping to restaurant to gym. Great location next to Shandao temple MRT and within walking distance to Taipei station, nice restaurants, cafes and the famed Fuhang soy milk. I also enjoyed the excellent lunch buffer at the hotel restaurant Kitchen 12 at incredibly reasonable price. But please note that Marriott Bonvoy platinum elite or higher tier members do not receive the usual executive lounge access or free breakfast if you book via Trip.com (you need to book directly with Marriott to enjoy the benefits).Dari€ 192

Ximending Commercial Area Taipei|4.53km dari pusat bandar
As a 5-star hotel, I don't think they should be promoting self check-in kiosks. A 5-star hotel should provide the expected service, not tell me to use a self check-in machine – I might as well book a 3-star hotel then. And if the self check-in machine wasn't bad enough, it even had problems. Check-in was supposed to start at 3 PM, but when I arrived at 4 PM, it said my room wasn't ready yet? Then I had to go back to the front desk to sort it out. If the machines are so unreliable, why not just let guests check in at the front desk?
Furthermore, before checking in, I specifically requested a high floor, and the hotel even replied that for my room type, the highest floor available was the 29th, which shows they saw my note. Yet, upon check-in, I was assigned the lowest available floor, the 12th. I had to request a change again to get moved to the 18th floor – it's just speechless.
And to top it off, I can overlook the lack of toothbrushes and toothpaste, but shouldn't a room at least come with two bottles of mineral water as standard? I know there's a water dispenser on every floor, but I'm a tourist. Do you expect me to carry a bottle around everywhere? There's a limit to how 'eco-friendly' one can be.Dari€ 52

Zhongxiao Dunhua Commercial Area Taipei|0.79km dari pusat bandar
The hotel is located near to the Zhongxiao Dunhua station (exit 3) and walking distance from Ming Yao Department Store, Taipei Dome, Songshan Cultural and Creative Park and National Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall. There are also many convenience stores within the vicinity and famous donut stores nearby. During our stay, we travelled by foot from the hotel to Pokemon Center Taipei, Taipei 101 and even to Linjiang Night Market.
The room is spacious. There are bathtub and shower in our room, but due to the law in Taiwan, please prepare your own toothbrush and toothpaste. There are also luggage weighing machine and coin-laundry machines in a small room on the floor where they serve breakfast. While not to expect a widespread of choices, I think their breakfast selection is a decent combination of local dishes and western options. Special mention that their pineapples are very sweet!
If you are interested, you may also check out over the counter on the selection of local products that can be ordered and delivered to the hotel. It may save you trouble to locate some of the famous brands in Taipei.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Green World Zhongxiao.Dari€ 41

The view is amazing—you can watch planes taking off and landing at Songshan Airport while also enjoying a beautiful view of Taipei 101. It was a unique and memorable experience, especially during the evening. The hotel itself is beautiful, and the combination of the historic architecture and the stunning city view made our stay even more enjoyable.Dari€ 90

The service was pretty good; I didn't touch my luggage after getting out of the car. However, I didn't have many needs or encounter much service to begin with. There were a lot of Japanese staff members... both times I checked in and out, they were Japanese women, and I struggled to understand their Chinese. Maybe they should stick to speaking Japanese... The room was a bit old but perfectly fine, standard for a five-star hotel. Two large brass keys offered the ultimate vintage experience. They're still practicing 'eco-friendliness' by shifting costs to guests, providing a sanitary bag which was genuinely inconvenient since I was on my period. The bathtub wasn't great; at 1.72m, I just barely fit in, it wasn't spacious at all, and it only had one faucet, no adjustment. No slippers or disposables, but I loved the scent of the three bath products. The welcome fruit was a bit of a joke; the welcome pastries, however, surprised me at first, coming in such a large wooden box. But then I thought, how is this different from being handed a random pile of wedding candies? I couldn't eat it all anyway. It was annoying that there wasn't a three-pin socket by the bed to charge my phone's dual Type-C ports; only the desk had two, one 110V and one 220V. Directly opposite the window was just a regular vintage residential building, but there was a distant view of Taipei 101, which was a pleasant surprise.
The public areas exuded old money charm... The underground Regent Galleria is a high-end mall... I'd never seen one inside a hotel before, quite an experience. There were also many dessert shops. For me, zero appeal, zero shopping capability. The design of the restaurant or banquet hall near the lobby was a bit poor, with many steps and no accessibility facilities, still very vintage. There was a piano and cello performance in the pool at the bottom of the building in the evening.
P12-15 The good reviews for this place really come down to nostalgia and food, I guess. I hadn't booked breakfast, but after seeing so many positive reviews, I quickly added it. It was $968 per person. Open from 6:30 AM to 10:00 AM, with the last seating at 9:30 AM. I went at 9 AM, and it was mostly full, so it's clearly very popular. The variety was indeed rich, with many ********* specialties, and the taste was decent, though not amazing. Apart from the service and breakfast being standard, my personal experience felt more like 4.5 stars.Dari€ 120

Ximending Commercial Area Taipei|3.1km dari pusat bandar
Decent hotel for budget travelers who prefer to be out all day rather than indulge in amenities. The concierge on Basement 1 has a selection of free snacks (crackers, biscuits etc.) and cup noodles you can just swipe for the day's itinerary. Daily breakfast offers congee, rice, and about 3-4 entrees, and a coffee machine (espresso or americano). The deluxe triple room we booked was spacious as was the bathroom. Room details were average and new-ish. The heavy curtains concealed old steel windows. Beddings and towels were changed every other day or so but could be also changed upon request. Staff was helpful and could communicate well in English. We appreciated its nearness to multiple 7-11s, Watsons, and bakeries. The Peace Park, National Taiwan Museum, and MRT station (NTU Hospital) were just a block away.Dari€ 35

Beitou Hot Spring Area Taipei|11.12km dari pusat bandar
1. Misleading Entrance Signage
Upon arrival, we followed the signage pasted on a pillar that directed guests to a staircase entrance. However, when we reached that entrance, we were shocked to find the door marked with the sign “来宾止步” (“Guests Stop Here”). When we raised this with your staff, we were told that this entrance has not been in use since the COVID-19 period. While we understand that certain operations may have changed during the pandemic, COVID-19 restrictions have ended for more than two years. If the primary entrance has been permanently closed, why has no corrective action been taken and the misleading signage still left there? Carrying heavy luggage up and down a sloped path unnecessarily was frustrating and avoidable.
2. No Staff Assistance or Clear Signage at the New Entrance
When we finally located the new entrance, there were no staff members on standby to assist us, nor was there any clear external signage indicating that this was the correct way to access the lobby. The explanation given later was that all staff were away assisting with parking which is not acceptable. At least one person should have been assigned to remain at the entrance, or the last person leaving should have arranged for another colleague to cover the position. In addition, the Operations Director mentioned that there is signage inside the new entrance directing guests to take the elevator to the lobby. However, this logic is flawed. If guests cannot locate the correct entrance in the first place, how could they possibly see a sign placed inside?
3. Poorly Trained and Unprofessional Front Desk Behavior
After struggling outside, we called the number listed on Google. Only then did someone finally come out and lead us in. By that time, we were exhausted and upset. When we confronted the front desk staff about why they ignored us, despite us clearly visible outside the “来宾止步” glass door, making eye contact and knocking for help, but they claimed they “did not see us.” This excuse was clearly untrue, as we observed them looking in our direction. Even more disappointing, none of the front desk staff offered an apology even until we requested to speak to the Operations Director and asked him to review the CCTV footage. After reviewing the footage, the Operations Director confirmed that the front desk had not been alert and apologized on their behalf. However, he did not acknowledge that the front desk’s attitude and lack of sincerity were also serious problems. Being “not alert enough” and showing no sense of apology or empathy are two entirely different issues.
As an international hotel, the front desk is the first impression of your service. Regardless of the quality of your facilities, this poor experience completely overshadowed the positive aspects of our stay. It also severely damages the reputation of Kagaya Group — a brand that has long been admired for its exemplary Japanese hospitality and politeness. Although we appreciate the Operations Director’s effort to make amends by offering us a meal and gifts (which we declined), it remains undeniable that this incident reflects a failure in staff training and management oversight.
We hope that management will seriously review this incident, especially the issues of:
- Inadequate and misleading signage at the entrance
- Lack of staff presence and assistance upon guest arrival
- Poor front desk awareness and unprofessional behavior
We trust that Kagaya Group will uphold its proud tradition of service by addressing these problems promptly and ensuring no other guests experience such treatment in the future.
Thank you for your attention.Dari€ 187

Close to Ximen Station, just a 2-minute walk from exits X5/X6, which is super convenient! 👍
However, the bathroom drainage wasn't great; after three people showered, the water overflowed. 👎
The mattress was comfortable with no sagging, 👍 and the hotel also provides free instant noodles, sandwiches, and drinks. 👍
The water pressure was excellent, which is a big plus! 👍 But the pipes were very noisy; you could clearly hear them from rooms above, below, and next to us. 👎
Since it's designed in an industrial style, the ceiling has many holes, and when lying down, I noticed a lot of dust looking up. You just have to accept it…Dari€ 40

The location is very near to main station. Twin sharing room with friend was a bliss as both of us have our own tv, like our own private resting place. The only thing need to highlight is the signage to locate our room number. We couldn’t find our room (which is at one of the corner) at the beginning as it is not within the range of the signage. Overall room stay is okay.Dari€ 27

I didn't stay in a themed room, and my room was quite small, but there were snacks, a seating area, and kids' play facilities. The location is great, just one station away from Ximending.

Beitou Hot Spring Area Taipei|11.3km dari pusat bandar
I have a special soft spot for this place! I've visited five times within a year, and each time there's been a small improvement. This time, the tall, slender, handsome guy at reception told me we could use the public hot spring twice a day, and I finally got to try the mango pudding and milk jelly I'd only ever seen before! That really changed my mind for the better. And for breakfast, they even had a fresh-ground coffee machine – that was a pleasant surprise! However, this was probably the smallest room I've stayed in during all my visits. But there's a good chance I'll be back for a sixth time this year...Dari€ 81

Great service and location, but an absolute nightmare of a stay
Rating: 1/5
I booked this hotel for a one-night trip to Taipei for a concert—just me, alone, excited to see my idol. Unfortunately, the stay itself was a total nightmare.
Let me start with the positives: the service is excellent—knowledgeable, quick, and polite. The location is also perfect, with a direct path from the Taipei MRT station to the hotel, and you can reach Taoyuan Airport in under an hour. There's even a water machine in the corridor, which was handy for getting hot water.
But that's where the good ends. The hotel is shockingly old—worse than any dilapidated hotel in Hong Kong at a third of the price. For what I paid, I did not expect this level of neglect.
I couldn't book a single or double room, so they gave me a room with three beds. I lay down on the first bed furthest from the window and soon felt itchy—I suspect bed lice. The other two beds near the window seemed fine, but that's already unacceptable. And the blankets were so thin I felt completely insecure—like there was nothing protecting me.
The bathroom was a disaster. Hair on the wall, a small dark spot in the bathtub, and no hairdryer. The toilet barely flushed—I had to press the button multiple times, and the toilet paper just wouldn't go away. As for the shower—I've never seen anything like this in 40 years of traveling. Not even in mainland China hotels I visited as a kid with my grandparents. The knob was super loose and barely functional. Turning it to the hot water side did nothing—no water came out. Slightly turning the other way (still on the red hot side) gave only cold water. I could not get hot water at all. At breakfast, I overheard Japanese ladies complaining about the exact same issue. Unbelievable.
There were also zero amenities. They hide behind ”eco-friendly,” but in Japan, you can still ask for supplies. Here, I didn't even have tissue paper in the room—I had to go back to the toilet to get toilet paper.
I couldn't take a proper shower. I feel so dirty and uncomfortable. Truly a nightmare. I would never recommend this place to anyone.Dari€ 58

We really enjoyed our stay in the area - it was super convenient for shopping of all sorts, restaurants and also MRT stations.
We couldn’t have stayed at a better location.
Our room was lovely and very spacious. Even though there was only one window, we didn’t feel cramped at all. We were pleasantly surprised some beverages in the mini bar were complimentary, a great touch!
We will definitely rebook this place next time we are in TaipeiDari€ 141

The location of this hotel is perfect, situated right next to 101. A short walk across the footbridge and you have access to a number of restaurants and food court.
The room itself is sufficient but a bit old and dated. The lobby is big and full of people, almost like a tourist attraction. With the doors constantly opening and closing, any cold air tends to escaping resulting in quite a warm and uncomfortable lobby.Dari€ 216

Ximending Commercial Area Taipei|3.46km dari pusat bandar
The Hollywood King Room had a really big and comfortable bed! We stayed for three nights. The toilet was a TOTO, and the wet/dry separation was a big plus! The hotel's location is super convenient, very close to Ximending Pedestrian Area. The only issue was on the first night, we had no cell signal, which led us to take a wrong turn after exiting the subway. The closest subway exit is the Underground Street - X6, and exit X5 has an escalator. We ended up having to take a taxi. The hotel's name is also hard to spot at night. Breakfast was plentiful, and the staff were incredibly diligent, constantly clearing plates. Overall, the service was excellent, and it offered great value for money.Dari€ 78

The hotel is conveniently located not far from Shilin Night Market and also a short 10-minute drive (or 30-minute walk) from the National Palace Museum. When we checked in that evening, the Wi-Fi wasn't great. While it wasn't fully resolved, the staff were very helpful and tried their best to fix it. The hotel breakfast offered a good variety. Overall, it's good value for money.Dari€ 144

Terribly convenient to everywhere with connection to 捷運、臺鐵 & 高鐵 station. There’s also a direct bus from/to Taoyuan international airport which takes ~80 minutes.
Eating / shopping is also convenient as it’s linked to shopping malls.
Room is spacious & clean, only drawback is no supply of toothbrush & toothpaste. Service is good. When checkin, staff asked if we brought toothbrush & toothpaste so that it wouldn’t be a surprise to us.
6 bottles of water are provided everyday which is great. However, free bar only has 1 coke, 1 sprite & 1 apple juice and no refills in our 4 nights’ stay.Dari€ 128

Enjoyed our stay at Miramar - room was clean and big with most facilities we needed (toiletries not provided due to them being more sustainable but was told you can purchase/request from front desk); the shampoo, bath soap and conditioner provided was one of the best I’ve tried for hotels. The gym although felt a bit cramped was decently equipped (had a smith machine too) and while I didn’t use it, there was an onsen bath as well with good facilities and 2 separate pools. Buffet breakfast had a good range of cuisines, a noodle/omelette station that’s made to order; especially enjoyed the variations in some of the dishes provided across the days. I didn’t mind the 10 minute walk away from the nearest mrt station much and liked that there was also a free entry to the art museum directly opposite from the hotel as well.Dari€ 72

The room was spacious. Even though I booked through different platforms, I mentioned it to the front desk when checking in, and the staff happily arranged for me to stay in the same room for the entire duration. The room was a large double. The only minor issue was that the soundproofing wasn't great.
I needed to cut some fruit, and they quickly sent a staff member with a knife and fork, and even a plate. They also brought a wine opener to the room, which was very thoughtful.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience. The location is also excellent, just across the road from the subway exit. I would definitely stay here again if I have the chance.Dari€ 116

The Mandarin Oriental, at 2k [presumably price], is truly impeccable in terms of service. Upon check-in, we were warmly welcomed and given a room tour, among other things.
Breakfast was decent, though a bit chaotic, possibly due to the crowd.
The bartenders at MO Bar were all quite entertaining, haha.
The guest rooms are absolutely beautiful.
The area above the pool is also stunning, and the pool staff were exceptionally good.Dari€ 281

I personally feel that this hotel is in a very 'local' area. How do I put it? It feels like living alongside ********* people, surrounded by their daily lives. The night market is 'right next door,' and the entire street downstairs is filled with everyday shops, markets, and food stalls that cater to locals. It's a bit far from Taipei Main Station (over 1km), but about a 10-minute walk to Shuanglian MRT Station. The hotel staff are all great – from the front desk gentlemen and office ladies to the cleaning staff and canteen employees, everyone is polite and has a good attitude. The breakfast was delicious.Dari€ 17
