Royal Inn Taipei Nanxi - MRT Zhongshan Station

Hotel is located centrally at Zhongshan MRT, just a 3 min walk to exit 3. Would recommend those with luggages to take exit 4 instead as it is just a stone’s throw away from exit 3, but with escalator and elevator. Hotel is also right next to 3 huge departmental stores, two big drugstores and lots of great food options. Zhongshan MRT is also just one stop away from Taipei Main Station via the red line and 3 stops away from Ximending via the green line. Initially, I was a little skeptical about the lack of a ground floor lobby as the hotel actually occupies the 8th - 11th floor only and the entrance looked more like an office building entrance but overall it was safe. Also to note that this is a no frills hotel so don’t expect a gym or swimming pool, and there’s no proper drop off point for taxis or private vehicles. Room was clean, the single couch was great and bathroom was standard and clean - no complains at all.

Breakfast was good. The rooms are rather big and comfortable. Location is good. The MRT station was just a very short walk from the hotel. There were many other food choices around the hotel and shopping malls opposite it. The hotel does not give bottled water, however, there is a water dispenser at the lift lobby so you can use the water flask in the room to collect water. Great for those who usually consume water.

Overall it was a comfortable stay. I like their sustainability efforts such as providing room slippers and toothbrush kit only if you need it. Perhaps it’s just me but I would like to specially mention that the shower head water power is strong which is a plus point for me! Most hotels have pretty weak water pressure. Not to mention, this hotel is conveniently located

It's location is perfect! Walking distance from Zhongshan MRT and the shopping district. The hotel's lobby is super convenient for families who like taking coffee/snacks in between meals (they offer their coffee for free to guests) The breakfast is also good, with options for those not used to Chinese cuisine. The reception staff were sooo helpful. They knew exactly what to do in all situations. We were assisted so well and their communications is very clear.

Located extremely near zhongshan mrt station, or a 15 min walk from Taipei main Station if you're up for it. It's on level 8 of a row of shopping so might be slightly tricky to locate look out for signages overhead. the bed is large and comfy, and the room was spacious. Staff was accommodating and helped me with receiving a parcel, as well as quick to respond when I had an urgent enquiry.
