CITY GUIDE · TAIPEI
9 hotels across four neighbourhoods, with reference rates and perks from the hotel.
Xinyi is the easiest base for a first visit: Taipei 101, the department stores and the city's convention centre are all here, and the MRT is close. Songshan, just north of it, is quieter and sits near Songshan Airport, the Breeze Center and Taipei Arena, which suits couples and short stopovers. Zhongshan has the older shopping streets and several MRT lines, and the hotels around Jiannan Road are handy for the airport and the riverside parks. Taipei Main Station is the place to stay if you are taking the high-speed rail, the airport MRT or day trips out of the city.
Reference rates: nightly, 2 adults in one room, before tax, across four dates a year; from about US$132 a night. Compare all Taipei hotels with perks in one table: Taipei reference rates.
