Hotels near Chiayi Tower, Chiayi City

We just checked out of Spring 12 house, a true gem in central Chiayi. The owners have taken one of the lovely old wooden houses and really lovingly restored it. It’s a real piece of architectural and cultural heritage, but also at the same time very tastefully equipped with all modern facilities and comforts. There is even a little machine dispensing free Asahi beer. The owners were also extremely welcoming and helpful both on check-in and check-out. The location is also great - it’s down a narrow alley so there’s no traffic noise but it’s just a few steps away from the main shopping, eating and night market areas. All in all, a truly unique and wonderful place to stay.

There was no hot water for a shower, and my mom caught a cold because of it! The room itself was very clean and they provided slippers, which was nice. It's also quite close to the night market, which is a big plus! Young people might want to consider staying here.

The room was spacious and the front desk service was excellent. However, complimentary bottled water isn't provided, and disposable toiletries are only given upon request, which is a bit different from what's common in mainland China. The 3rd floor has a communal lounge and a laundry room, and it seemed quite lively with many people chatting. However, after a long day of sightseeing, I was too tired to socialize. The hotel's location is incredibly convenient, being extremely close to the high-speed rail station, bus station, and night market! The ********* people are incredibly friendly! My boyfriend almost lost his phone at the night market, but a snack stall owner helped keep it safe for him. We're truly grateful for their kindness!

It was my first time staying here. The room and toilet were big and clean. But the soundproofing seems to be poor. If someone is talking in the corridor (maybe a nearby neighbor), they can hear it in the room. 😂

The location is super convenient, right across from the train station, and the room was spacious, which was great! 👍 They didn't provide bottled water in the room, but there was a water dispenser in the hallway, which was a nice touch. 👍 Even when I didn't put out the 'please clean' sign, they still emptied the trash, which was helpful. 👍 It's only about a 10-minute walk to the Cultural Road Night Market, and getting to Alishan by bus is also really easy. 👍 However, there wasn't much to eat for breakfast. ❌ And the elevator was a bit slow. ❌

Great location, but no dedicated parking. There are plenty of parking lots nearby, costing about 240 a day. The hotel has a large and very nice common area. The 4-person bunk bed room was decent. However, the bathroom in the room was tiny, and there was no separate wet and dry area, which was quite inconvenient. Upon entering the hotel, there was a very strong and unpleasant odor, like leftover food or sewage, which was quite disgusting. The room rate wasn't bad though, around 2000 for four people on a weekday without meals.

This hotel's biggest selling point is definitely its location: it's right behind Chiayi Train Station, about a 3–5 minute walk away. For anyone needing to catch an early train or get an early start, it's incredibly convenient – I'd give the location full marks. There was a slight hiccup on check-in day: the front desk was initially unattended, and we waited about 15 minutes before someone appeared to help us. I hope the hotel can improve this (e.g., by ensuring staff are present or providing clear contact information). The room's cleanliness was pretty good; the carpet showed no obvious stains, and overall it was comfortable. However, one downside was the lack of a table or surface in the room to put things, especially when bringing back food from the night market. It was a bit tricky figuring out where to put it or how to eat, which detracts from the practicality. On the other hand, the breakfast was a pleasant surprise: I particularly loved their pork floss, which was genuinely softer and crispier than what you usually find at breakfast buffets – excellent with plain congee. The braised pork rice (luroufan) is also worth mentioning; the braised pork had a good fat-to-lean ratio, making it fragrant and delicious with the rice. However, I do have a suggestion: the tofu pudding/dessert area should ideally have a cover or protection. I noticed mosquitoes flying into it, and the tofu pudding itself had a slightly sour taste, not feeling very fresh. I hope this area can be improved. In summary: if your priority is convenient transportation and needing to catch trains, this hotel is very suitable. But if you value an in-room desk/dining space, you might need to adjust your expectations.

although it seemed like a short walk from the train station, there weren't proper sidewalks or pavements, so it is quite challenging when dragging luggages

Satisfactory 2-night stay that they also provide complimentary breakfast . Clean and decent space. We are happy and would use it again if the price is affordable. Recommended 👍

The hotel is close to the train station. The staff is friendly. Unfortunately, the bathroom was rattling all night and the night staff explained that they can only fix it next morning.
