Ginza Hotel

The room was teeny tiny, especially compared to the other serviced residence we stayed at before. I believe it was called CK service residence, which was super roomy. My friend came to pick us up, and told us that we were staying in a working girl area, which helped clear up why there were strange men entering and exiting the building at all hours. IT IS IS FAMILY FRIENDLY so do not stay here with kids. Ginza hotel is located only on the 4th floor of the building, and I am not sure what the other floors are for. The breakfast was not that good, and they would bring out small pieces of fruit instead of adding it to the buffet. The only good thing about this hotel was the staff. They were super friendly and helpful. For the price though, not worth it. I will not stay again.

I have been to Taipei more than 10 times and each time I stay at different hotels, including their sister hotel, Tokyo International. In comparison to Tokyo International, the staff were as friendly and also very helpful, but the room was a lot smaller and the bathroom was easier to use at Tokyo International. Also, the quality of breakfast was a lot better at Tokyo International. The room rate was more expensive at the Ginza Hotel. I have stayed at better hotels in Taipei at similar room rate and the room was better there. I loved the hospitality and smiles of the people, however, if I pay the same amount of money, I would go for better rooms. The best I liked about this hotel was there was a smoking area near the reception. There may not be the second time for me, unfortunately.

Our stay at Ginza Hotel was amazing. The hotel is right at the center and it is both easy to walk everywhere and take the MRT. Although the building isn't new, everything inside is in very good condition. And staff were very helpful and friendly, thank you for everything :)
