Taiwanese hotels range in quality from sad and seedy to very luxurious. Most hotels have both a Chinese and Western name. If you are not familiar with Chinese, make sure to bring along the Chinese name, including Chinese characters, for help finding it.

Hotel beds can be much harder than in the West because of the old Asian tradition to sleep on a wood board. Modern mattresses can be found in most hotels, but only in the most upscale Western style hotels will you find beds in a real western style.

Since 2007, hotels have been rated on a scale of 1 to 5 stars. However, the old system of 1 to 5 "Plum Blossoms" is still used by many establishments.

Mid-Range

Taxi drivers and tourist offices are invaluable resources for finding moderately priced hotels. Note that the suburbs of most major cities offer a plethora of well priced alternatives. Motels can be quite different then there western counterparts in that they are often decorated extravagantly and feature baths with massage jets, marble, flat screen TVs, etc. Many places also offer mid-day "rests" for a few hours. Taichung is considered the motel-capital of Taiwan.

Bed & Breakfast

A Bed & Breakfast can be an excellent opportunity to get to know the people in a different city, as well as refreshingly personal environment to make your temporary home. Though a B&B may be more expensive then traditional hotels, occasionally they are cheaper then the surrounding locations given the inclusion of a meal and the luxury of the environment.

VVG BB+B is an example of such a setting. Located within an older apartment building, inside there is hidden luxury. Decorated in retro style, guests needs are meticulously attended to.

A Bed and breakfast search engine can help you find the perfect place for your stay. Enjoy!
