Taipei, Taiwan Hotel Rooms at the Independent

We had an enjoyable stay at G7, the staff were pleasant and friendly and eager to answer any of our queries regarding travel around Taipei. The hotel rooms are clean albeit rather small, but it was of no concern to us as the amenities supplied were great. This included the video on demand service to supplement the tv channel selection, which was a pleasant surprise. Despite being located along the outskirts of Taipei city, in Luzhou, a city in New Taipei, it was only a 5-7 minute walk from the MRT station. In addition, located next to the hotel are famous Taiwanese restaurants, a mutton soup one and a mutton barbebque restaurant. Right next to the hotel, there is a good seafood restaurant as well. All of which serve good food at affordable prices. It was a pleasant stay and I would recommend it.

I had a wonderful 2 days stay at the hotel. The hotel is a bit far from the MRT (the distance is okay I guess, but it involves a rather steep slope, so it might be a challenge walking there the first time), and although the hotel provided shuttle bus to and fro the MRT station, it is a bit hard getting from the MRT to the hotel because you have to call the hotel, and so if you don't have a local number you have to place roaming call... or walk back. But anyway I don't think it is too big of an issue. Also, the staff was friendly and helpful. I love the classical design, and it makes me feel like I'm in olden times. Not to mention, the furnitures used are of very high quality (to my standards anyway), e.g. goose feather pillows, comfortable bed and sheets, antique looking wardrobes, chairs and desks. The private tub is one of the highlights for me. It is so convenient to have it in your room, and although it takes a while to fill up to a decent amount, you also have the luxury of adjusting the temperature to your liking, or wait for the water to cool down.

Breakfast is interesting if you have the local options but they will do an American breakfast just make sure you enjoy ketchup if you have that. The staff are very helpful and friendly so just ask for what you want.

We enjoyed our 5 days stay at this hotel. The breakfast spread is just right with some variation everyday. Services were excellent. Room lay out was better than some 5 star hotel. Most of all, the atmosphere is not intimidating for casual traveler like us.

I'd read some negative reviews an was pleasantly surprised. The hotel was easy to find, well appointed and close to an MRT station with plenty of food choices within walking distance. The staff was very helpful and courteous. I travel a lot for business and was quite happy and would stay here again.

Très bien - personnel très accueillant et service très bon.

Nice clean rooms. Breakfast good. 2 mins walk from Da'an MRT which is central for Red and brown lines taking in lots of tourist sites, Tapei 101 etc. Brown line gets you to the Zoo and Maokong gondolas.

Nice hotel with very clean and modern room. Hotel staffs are very nice. But comparing with hotel staff in Japan, Japanese hotel staffs are more professional.

You will like this hotel, very good management. I will be back soon

Friendly and wonderful service. They care about you everything.
