When is the best time to go to Maolin?

The best time to visit Maolin is during the dry season, from October to March, when the weather is most pleasant for exploring the region's natural beauty. During these months, you'll experience cooler temperatures and less rainfall, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking to waterfalls or visiting the Purple Butterfly Valley. The skies are generally clearer, offering better conditions for photography and enjoying the scenic mountain landscapes. This period also coincides with the arrival of the purple crow butterflies, which is a major draw for visitors. The shoulder months of April, May, and September can also be good, offering fewer crowds and still relatively comfortable weather, though there's a higher chance of rain.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Maolin hotel for you.

Top Maolin Hotel Reviews

Taitung Yu Krung Smart Stay

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t believe this place only cost $26 USD!! It was easy to do self check in. The room was big, comfy bed, clean large shower. We didn’t use the microwave or hot water station n the common area but they were nice touches. It was less than 10 minutes walking from the train station on a flat well-lit street. Clean, safe, convenient, and cheap."

Formosan Naruwan Garden Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice property, nice people. Right near train station which is good AND bad. You can literally walk there, but the area is in an undeveloped area with nothing but a 7-11 and Family Mart. You'll need some way to get to town center. I'm a biker so I just rode bicycle everywhere. Breakfast is bland as toufu. Same thing every day."
