Nantou County hotels & accommodations

the hotel is located at the best location in Riyue tan with breath taking view. The hotel is decorated with good taste and staff is friendly. One area that needs improvement is the swimming pool area in 12F, we visited the pool on Apr 16, we found the dead frog and leafs floating in the hot pool, we mentioned to the staff, he ignored us and continued to play his cell p...

It is highly recommended to book a lake view room during your stay in Sun Moon Lake. It is especially calm & relaxing during the night. I am not sure about other hotel, but all rooms at this hotel will have their balcony light off automatically at 10pm, should be for visitor to better enjoy the calmness of the lake? Not sure about that though. Another plus point is tha...

What a delightful hotel with a beautiful lake view and convenient location! We have been visiting many National Parks both in the United States and Taiwan. Sun Moon Lake National Park and Hotel del Lago definitely has been the best experience we’ve had so far. Hotel Del Lago’s location provides unparalleled views. You can sit at the balcony of the hotel room and en...

This was a multi-generational trip for us- kids 2.5 and 6 years old, along with uncle and grandma. Fantastic breakfast buffet, clean and good-sized rooms. I was worried the room would be either damp due to the hot spring factor, but it wasn’t the case. Fuli Hotel is a short walk from the bus station where Nantou bus (from High Speed Rail Station in Taichung) stops off,...

We are American ex-pats living in Taipei with two young boys. Beautiful and well-maintained facility in the mountains near Sun Moon Lake and "next door" to the Aboriginal Cultural Village (a culturally-themed amusement park with surprisingly good rides). Their primary customer base is Taiwanese and Chinese tourists, but they wasted no time finding an English-speaking e...

The hotel is slightly worn along the edges but the cleanliness is good, just that its definitely not new. The view is absolutely gorgeous and the price of the room does really justify it. We stayed in a Japanese styled room with lake view. The room ambience and the lake view matched perfectly, making us feel like we were in Japan. The staff tried their very best to be ...

If you’re planning to stay in SML, Ita Thao is the best location to stay because it’s the most “touristy” place I would say. It’s really close to the Formosan Aboriginal village which I loved. This hotel is the best hotel to stay in for the price paid. It has a beautiful lake view which is so close to the pier hence you get to take in all the view and whatever is happe...

Very closed to Suishe visitor center (Nantou bus drop off area). 3 mins walk. Some staff doesn't speak English. Recommended a lake view room "Million dollars view with affordable price" Port for sun moon lake sailing is just in front of the hotel. Youu can drop your things and start the tour right away. Few restaurants in this area. Defenitely coming back

Excellent location in Nantou! The room was luxurious and the staff very accommodating and courteous. They helped me with all my needs with the room and even helped me order breakfast for delivery when I woke up late from the included breakfast. :) Will definitely be booking again. Amazing hotel service in Taiwan.

Friendly & helpful frontdesk,one of the lake view hotel,our room faces the lake & can view the sunset during the evening.The cable car station to Farmosa Aboriginal Village is only a few minutes walk away.I strongly recommended this hotel place is a superb location & i will stay there for my next trip to Nantou

This hotel is located on the main road to Shitou. Just 10 minutes drive to major scenery spot. The hotel staff is very nice to explain to us the travel plan. The hotel also offer guided scenery tour and star observation for FREE! There is a wooden bathtub on the balcony. You can enjoy jacuzzi with star over the head.

Stayed in this minsu for 1 night. The minsu was situated facing the huge mountain range. View was spectacular and there was a viewing platform where you could sit and have tea. The owners were an elder couple, very friendly and their service was excellent. The rooms was divided into front block and back block. My room was named the Cancer Constellation sign. Even thoug...

Its decently pretty althought its hidden at the back lane of right beside the sun moon lake river where people cycle not easy to realise the villa but the distance away fro the shuei she pier and nantou bus stop back to taichung is ratherly near. Toilet is pretty! Bed is comfy, room is huge. I think its rather worthy of the price! Staff is so kind esp the day time lad...

It is a elegant and romantic lakeside hotel,very good for relaxing and honey moon. I love this place very much, great location, very near to Nantou bus station, nice lake view from hotel balcony as well. The Sun Moon Lake view very beutiful and amazing. We really enjoy the natural enviroment and our stay. Will definitely come back again and stay at the same hotel!

The hotel is excellent although a bit expensive but you are paying for the location. The room was awesome and it comes with unlimited portable water and the characters were just too cute. The only complaint could be that the rooms weren’t connected to the main lobby which means dragging your luggage through the cold. The food starts closing quite early after dark so be...

The hotel is a convenient boat ride from the Sun Moon Lake bus station. It is walking distance to the cable car, and right off the boat dock. The room and bedding is rather luxurious, with an excellent dinner and breakfast. We booked a lake view room and it has a jacuzzi, which is very nice after a long day hike around Sun Moon Lake. The service is excellent, and the s...

This hostel was the best out of all 3 other accommodations I stayed at in Taiwan. The hostel is brand new and all the furnishings are the highest class. The room was super clean, not even a single dust and was beautifully decorated. I can tell the host put in a lot of effort in making the place hospitable and enjoyable for her guests. We had a partial view of the lake ...

The hotel may be the best choice in the area; however, you can tell it's aged. Location wise, it takes only couple minutes to Si-Tou which is really convenient for visitors. 4 of us stayed in a family room with reasonable size. The in-hotel restaurant serves only basic foods which doesn't worthy to pay for it. Kids playground is out of dates and not well maintained...

The LeaLea is on the far side of the lake away from the chaos of the "arrival area" where the main town is. We took a boat to the village and walked to the first lea lea hotel we found Apparently there are three of them in a small area. And we picked the wrong one. Not a big deal as they directed us to the right one,----our booking didn't indicate which one! Beautiful...

This is the best hotel in our entire trip. We book 2 rooms and one of the room got upgraded. The breakfast is superb. The owner was there in the morning, introducing the breakfast and its ingredients. The view from the hotel is breathtaking. We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back.

Probably the best hotel experience i ever had. The hotel is so gorgeous, luxury room with Hermes toiletry(wow) and ferragano soap (wow) , comes with more than enough drinks in the mini bar for free (a bottle vodka, heneiken, wine and can of beer, soft drinks, chocolate, pudding). If you are into audio, you will be very satisfied with the audio system provided that play...

The location of Yunwu is quite good. You can take Nantou Bus and get off at Cingjing Guoxiao. Yunwu is just 5 minutes away from that bus stop. There is also a recreational center near Yunwu where you can find a 7-11 shop. My kids were very excited when we moved in a nicely-decorated Deluxe Family unit. They liked to climb upstairs to the loft. There was also a balc...

This is actually homestay, not hotel, but the standard can beat 3 star hotel standard, even more. Is newly operated from Sep 2018, so everything look very new. Good location, lot of food and souvenir shop within walking distance. Breakfast is freshly cook to you when you attend to cafe, not those hotel buffet style. The taste is highly recommended! If you come to S...

when we arrive hotel it's raining with wind so badly and we booking triple room. since we travel with elders and need room with no stairs that already inform hotel, so happy that they really note it and give us room just under reception with no stairs to get to rooms and we given quad room. feels great spending 1 night over there.

Thankfully there’s hot water shower in the room! Too bad we didn’t get the best views in the minsu but it’s alright since we’re carrying our luggages. It’s also about 2mins walk from Shouting bus stop when you take the Nantou bus from the HSR. You will see a hotpot restaurant and that’s the place! Recommended!
Cheap places to stay in Nantou County

Host is an artist by profession which explains the paintings everywhere in the common area. However, what makes this place unique Is definitely the host's passion to connect with people. It was my first experience in backpackers and I will strongly recommend solo travelers to have a go at this if you're looking beyond just having a bed to sleep. Host will urge you to ...

Absolutely the best hostel I stayed at in Taiwan. Pretty great location, two blocks away from both main streets. Very clean, kitchen and bathroom are well equipped and modern. Almost zero street noise as it's next to a school and some family residences. The best part however is James, who will make you feel at home and give you great info on the area and anything you'd...

This is one of the cheapest hostels I've stayed in in Taiwan, but with the best service! The staff immediately gave me recommendations for trips around Puli and places to eat (the bawan nearby, and the fruit juice shop on Road 14 are worth it!), the partitioned room was as soundproof as you'd expect a dorm to be, bathroom was clean with towels and toiletries provided, ...

I have been stay 3 night(separate day) at the same place and the owner upgrade my room (from twin room shared bathroom to twin room with bathroom ) without additional charge for the 1st night stay . simple check in by getting the key from the owner and simple luggade storage by putting at a place (discuss with owner) ...the room is clean and hot shower provided ...ai...

I'm usually skeptical of hostels but this is one for the books. First of all it's super clean, the bunk bed is soft and comfy. The water is hot and the shower has an amazing water pressure. Body wash and shampoo are provided. There is a kitchen area down stairs and you get free tea. They had Rooibos tea even, that's the South African tea. So I felt quite at home. I was...

Location was ok, 10 minute walk to bus station. Room was big but the floor was dirty. Also the bathroom wasn't very clean, hair everywhere. Air con was given to us for free but the room was quite overpriced and there didn't seem to be any other guests there. We only saw the owner once during our 2 night stay.

I am on a month long trip to Taiwan, and my itinerary is not fixed like a typical long-term backpacker. I was told I stayed the longest there - 5N & 4D(+). I rested a day, and researched/planned my next stage a whole day. 2 days was sightseeing. It has all the basic for a backpacker. There is no washing machine but I could do handwashing and a open rooftop helped to ...

Perfect location if you preferred a more serene and quiet area as compared to the bustling water wharf. The hostel is clean and has a choice to stay in 2nd floor dorm (for solo traveler) or 3rd floor tent (for couple). Pictures submitted by the hostel is an accurate depiction of the current state of hostel. Do take note that you are to adhere to bus schedule if you are...

The best hotel I've ever book with agoda. Room is very cute and clean. Staffs were friendly, very helpful, and good english speaking. Very good location, just 2 minute walking from visitor center and pier. The only con is the hotel doesn't provide a good view from your room.

When I arrived, I was told that breakfast was not included even though Agoda says it was. I think it's because there were only 2 guests including me. The shared bathroom could have been a little cleaner but it wasn't bad...hair and a dead bug on the walls. The location is very close to Sun Moon Lake but it is not in town and there are no stores or restaurants nearby. T...

I stayed here for 4 days to visit Sun Moon Lake. Naluisland has a prime location with walking distance to Ita Thao Pier, the Nantou bus stop and other hiking paths. Naluisland is clean and has a simple useful layout for each room. TV includes HBO & CNN in English, there is a mirror, drawer space and chairs. There is temperature control in each room. There's also a comm...

The view is gorgeous and it is very cooling there. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Facilities may not be as good as hotels but the view and staff made up for it. Great for a one night stay. They are able to help you book the hehuanshan sunrise tour which is a must go in my opinion. The star gazing before sunrise and sunrise are both a wonderful experience.

Tian Hsiang is a strategic location which is only approximately 100m away from a bus station "Yi ma nei li". The bus brings you up to the green green grassland, 7-eleven/ Starbucks/ information counter. We booked a double room with mountain view, it was absolutely memorable. At night, from the balcony of our room, we were able to see a sky full of stars. The place is p...

I booked this hotel at the last minute and it was one of the only ones available in Puli that particular weekend. It is pretty far outside of town, meaning you'd not even want to think about staying here unless you're driving or cycling, but apart from that it's quite comfortable. As near as I can tell it's basically a bunch of holiday homes in the countryside that hap...

the hostel is very clean and spacious, staff updated our room for free and made us fresh local breakfast. A little bit far from town centre and difficult to find though. If you are planning to stay in nantou for a couple of days, puli dream house b&b is great transfer station since there's direct bus within walking distance to all the tourist attractions.

It’s very new! Has basically everything you need for a short stay: washing + drying machine, water dispenser, cable tv, Bluetooth speaker, spacious room and bathroom, air purifier, fan, A/C, hair dryer, parking on premise, etc. But it was quite hard for us to find the location. Instruction was not clear and we had to wait for them to reply our messages. Just google Jo...

If i have another chance to visit Nantou again, I would dependently choose EG as my stay. The staff there aer awfully nice and considerate, offering anybservice and stuffs as they can The room was beyond my description, I was actually expecting that EG might be as normal and a bit old as other hostels or B&Bs, yet i was totally wrong. the moment I step into the room, w...

place is abit harder to reach because the roads towards there are not smooth, but overall is ok, the boss(female) is very hospitable, and lead us all the ways to our room and also the hotspring. Their bread is made by themselves include the tea leaves(green and red tea). It is very special and delicious, wanna grab more than 1 hahah

the hotel is hard to find, and it doesnt look like a hotel on the outside at all. we booked a lake view room, but our lake view was obstructed by construction ramps, the window was also dirty . we arrived int he evening and construction works didnt stop till late. we asked what time they start in the morning and were told "not so early". " not so early" was 8 am...

Clean rooms with private bathroom. Wifi is fast . This hotel is about the same price as an hostel so do not expect 5 star services, but if you are looking for a cheap place to sleep this is an excellent choice. Check in is at the restaurant on the first floor. Day market and lots food nearby . We will go back next time in Puli.

Amazing hotel service in Taiwan.

It is a elegant and romantic lakeside hotel,very good for relaxing and honey moon.

The room is spacious, clean and comfortable. Booked twin bed mountain view room, came out to double bed lake view and I think it's for four. Hotel staff are friendly and helpful. The lake view is beautiful. Location is good with lots of food stalls with native food ingredients.

Excellent hotel. Newly built and very clean. Breakfast buffet is at older Lealea gardens hotel 100 m down the road. Breakfast buffet is fine, not amazing, and offers mostly chinese style breakfast foods with some western fare. Restaurants, the waterfront pier, and the cable car are within 5 minute walk. The hotel is located on the Ithashao side of the lake. We ...

We enjoyed the lunch at the 雕之森樹屋餐廳 (Japanese Restaurant) even though the spread was actually a bit too much for us to finish. We ordered the NT$800 & NT$2000 set. The room was very clean and comfortable. They provided toiletries set too. But if you are quite particular about the type of tooth brush, tooth paste, shampoo, bath gel you use then it's best to bring your o...

Firstly, Qing Jing is a mountainous area in the Nantou County of Taiwan, close to the central mountain range. It's already not easy to get to, so during our visit there, my wife and I got off at the visitor centre thinking that the hotel was in walking distance. To our horror it was not.. however, when we called the hotel to ask for directions, we were so relieved to f...

booked a room with fantastic bacony view. hotel is not so easily accessible if you do not drive since it is far away from the main road. but hotel do provide transportation. did not use the hotel transport since we drove ourselves. hotel breakfast spread is also amazing with many varieties.

You need a car to stay at this place, though car park is limited. The closest convenient store is several km away (10 mins driving). I don't think it can be 4 stars by the amenities provided (paper/plastic cup). The design and layout of the room and lobby are weird, awkward and either too much or too little. It's fun to observe the utilization of furniture and decorat...

Parking space is not enough for customer. I also want to say that the day I arrived the hotel and try to call to agoda, I can't contact your service staff. Your system needs customer to provide hotel ID to entry your service call system. But when I request this number from hotel. They told me they were out of office. They didn't have it. Both of agoda and hotel are pro...

Relatively new apartment with wide selection of foods to choose from for breakfast and bicycles are available for rental at no cost! For those that wish to do laundry, washing machines are also available on the ground level. Recommended for families and couples who wish to have a short getaway at Jiji.
