Hotels near Gold Museum, New Taipei City

I was looking for a cozy experience in Jiufen. I had a hard time choosing a hotel that felt perfect for me. I decided to stay at Twilight House. I had read that the hotel was up some stairs, but I don’t think I was prepared for just how many stairs I’d have to climb haha. The instructions for checking-in were pretty straightforward, and I received answers to my questions in a promptly manner. My room was very nice, I had liked the aesthetic from the pictures online. The only downfall was that the room had a musty smell. I communicated my concern through WhatsApp and an air freshener was left for me. I was a little disappointed that not even coffee packs were provided, but there are two green tea bags and small cheese bags. Overall, I had a decent stay. :)

I was very satisfied with my stay here. The hotel's location is excellent, making it super convenient for getting around and dining, with plenty of amenities nearby. The front desk staff were very friendly and efficient with both check-in and check-out, and patiently answered all my questions. The room was clean and tidy, with good lighting and ventilation. The bedding was soft and comfortable, ensuring a sound night's sleep. The bathroom was spotless, well-stocked with toiletries, and had consistent water pressure and temperature. The soundproofing was good, so it was quiet at night with no disturbance from noise. Overall, the atmosphere is warm and elegant, and the facilities are well-maintained. It offers great value for money, perfect for both business trips and leisure travel. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in town. Highly recommend!

It truly is a tiny, tiny double room. Like, 2 square meters plus the bathroom. You shower right over the toilet. It was clean, but I still had a cockroach visit me in the bathroom. The breakfast was delicious, it was warm, and Bert was great. Absolutely no space for two people. The room door opens directly onto an empty sidewalk outside.

This is definitely theee place to stay on your first trip to Jiufen. I am really impressed by the room. You've got everything you need, and a really good size shower, even for a single room! On top of that, there's even a complimentary breakfast to kick off your day after a good night sleep. And of course, the location is brilliant, being at the heart of the market, and just steps away from the bus stop if you're coming by bus. All in all, this is a must stay and I am incredibly glad I made the last minute reservation here.

The hotel is at a good location with direct access to the old street via a flight of stairs. However, if you drive there, carpark is limited and there is no elevators so you will need to carry your luggage (no matter how heavy) to your room. I like especially the breakfast - it's calming to have breakfast by the fireplace over looking the mountains.

This is the best hostel I've ever stayed at. They even have smart toilets, and the showers are excellent. The only downside is climbing to the third floor via a somewhat narrow and steep staircase, but that's understandable in a mountainous area. They'll help you with your luggage. The specific capsule I stayed in couldn't be locked from the inside, but it felt very safe regardless. It often rains and gets foggy in the mountains here, so next time I'd love to stay for a few days to experience clear skies. It's a very enchanting, ancient-feeling place with a real story and atmosphere.

This trip allowed me to temporarily step away from my daily grind and experience life at a different pace. The scenery along the way, the local hospitality, and the unique culture all left a deep impression on me. By actually visiting and observing, I not only saw the sights but also learned to slow down and truly appreciate the present moment. This journey has become an unforgettable and rewarding memory.

This was a wonderful place to stay. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't great so we couldn't fully enjoy the views, but I imagine they would have been stunning on a clear day. Relaxing on the terrace was also very pleasant. Breakfast was delivered right to our room, and the sandwiches were absolutely delicious. The staff were very kind and responded quickly whenever we messaged them on LINE with questions.

The room was clean and tidy, the host was very welcoming, and there was a microwave and oven in the living room. The breakfast was plentiful and the bread was delicious. It's a great place for friends to relax and unwind!

The location is excellent! It's close to the bus stop, the entrance to Jiufen's main tourist area, and convenience stores. It was so easy to drop off our luggage before heading out to explore. Jiufen has a lot of stairs; I saw people struggling with suitcases, climbing about 100 steps during my visit, and it looked very tough. The service is also great! I requested a late check-in via LINE, and they sent me photos with directions. All communication was in Japanese. The shower has hot water! The shower is located right before the toilet, so the floor in front of the toilet and sink can get wet. However, it's not an issue if you wear the hotel's slippers. We didn't see any bugs, which was a plus. There's a water dispenser (with hot water available) on the ground floor in the common area, along with instant coffee and other amenities. I highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Jiufen! We took a bus back to Taipei at 11 AM the next day, and the bus was empty, even though it was a weekday.
