As you know, Taiwan is not one of favorite countries around me in Korea. After deciding to take the first trip to Taipei, Taiwan, I have met a lot of problems. That is why there are few informations and books about Taiwan. The most serious one is which hotel is recommendable and economic to me. While considering to solve it,... More

Stayed for 3 nights on business. Hotel location was along sung chiang road so its like right in the city. Comparing to other hotels in Taipei I think this is an average small size hotel. Plenty of tourists from Japan and Hong Kong. Restaurant breakfast was nothing to shout, I didn't like it when I compared to similar Taipei hotels.... More

Gala Hotel is very popular with tour groups (especially Japanese and Chinese) and has a very convenient location about 5 minutes easy walking from Xingtian Temple station. The staff are very helpful and the buffet breakfast has a good selection. We (family of 3 adults) stayed here in December 2011 before and after a 5-day tour around Taiwan, and they... More

Front desk was also very friendly. And provided us answers to many queries. There is a 7-eleven just opposite the road. Bed however was a bit soft for... More

My husband and I recently stayed at this hotel for a week for business and pleasure. The best feature of the hotel is its location in downtown Taipei. You go out the front door, turn left, and walk for three minutes and MRT's Yellow Line Xingtian Station is right there at the traffic lights. Once you master Taipei's excellent subway... More

We stayed here for two nights at the beginning of our two week stay in Taiwan and stayed for another night before we flew home to UK. It's a comfortable hotel although the rooms are a bit small. My husband was particularly fascinated with the Panasonic toilet seat which has a control panel which I imagine can do all sorts... More

This is a good choice for a s hort stay. Very convenient MRT nearby and very helpful front desk staff particularly katrina who is very proficient in english. Breakfast food is so so with no variety. Same food every day

Past reviews about Gala Hotel guided me when I made my booking and I have no regrets staying in this hotel. The rooms are just what they have posted on their websites. It... More
