8/10
Go now! The hotel is incredibly beautiful - the lobby design was spectacular. The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully designed. The onsen / gym and pool area are lovely, too. The hotel opened recently (Dec 2024?) hence the condition of all aspects of the space is flawless. There is a visible challenge for the hotel due to the earthquake which has affected tourism in Hualien: the guest numbers were shockingly low for such a fantastic hotel - but this also meant that the sky bar was only open on weekends (disappointing) and the bakery on the ground floor was yet to open - there is limited dining options and no room service, too. A lot of the staff feel very green - but I guess management are running the property on a lean team through this challenging period. The breakfast I’m sure will slowly get better as more guests visit and you can see they have the facilities and space to cater for a huge amount of guests. The value for money is incredible and would definitely go back - highly recommend a stay especially while these rates are still available!
