“Perfect for Business Travelers”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

I've stayed at Howard Hotel Hsinchu a few times now, as a business traveler in town for meetings. The guest rooms are luxurious with lots of space, good air conditioning and the best bathrooms! Great value for the money. The hotel location also can't be beat -- with plenty of restaurants, stores and shops in walking distance. This definitely supersedes the Hotel Royal which although close to the Science Park is located in a dingy sad area when the sun sets. So I highly recommend Howard Hotel Hsinchu!

Room Tip: Let them know if you prefer a quieter room, which has less of a view.

“A vile 1980s timewarp”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 April 2011

The rooms were old and dirty. After one night here, I was covered in insect bites. The restaurants stated they close at 9pm, but I went at 8:45 and they refused to serve me. This hotel is a vile 80s timewarp.
The rooms aren't comfortable, the blinds do not block out the light and the internet connection was a shocker!
The facilities are old and the whole place is past its prime.

Room Tip: Stay somewhere else

“decent Business-Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2009

The Howard plaza provides relatively spacious rooms. They are equipped with full size bath rooms (with separate shower and bath), a small anteroom with a wardrobe and a kingsize bed. The technical furnishing is up to date but not luxurious. The air condition system is pleasantly quiet.
Rooms are serviced daily with new towels and linen.
The interior of the commonly used areas in the hotel are sound but basic.
Breakfast is served as an Asian and Western style buffet. However, the offered dishes are too cold most of the time.
