Taipei Hotels to Recommend
Could not find any thread related to Taipei, so can anyone recommend some good hotels in Taipei? Are hotels like Shangri La Far Eastern Plaza, Sheraton and Westin convenient or any other hotels to recommend?
Thanks.

Lots of discussion took place in a similar thread a couple of years back:

However much (if not all) of the content remains current and relevant.

Shangri-la is much nicer. Had some kick ass hot pot nearby. But again, location.
Westin was the best for me. Location was very good, and their furnishings are better than the Sheraton (see KeithMEL's TR).HUGE AL

I was thinking if I should start a separate Starwood Taiwan thread, but decided not to in the end, because it seems all the properties are IN Taipei (or nearby)...
Does the HUGE one still support the Westin as *the* hotel of choice in Taipei? I'm about to book my Christmas - NYE plans in Taipei and need about two nights at the start of the holiday and one night to finish it off.
For those who haven't been following, Starwood now has the choice of six properties by December 2010:
1. Four Points by Sheraton Chung Ho, Taipei
631 Chung Cheng Road, Chung Ho City
2. Le Méridien Taipei - Opening November 01, 2010
38 SongRen Road
Xinyi District
3. Sheraton Taipei Hotel
12 Zhong Xiao East Road
Sec 1 R.O.C.
4. The Westin Taipei
133 Nanjing East Road
Section 3
5. Sheraton Hsinchu Hotel, Taiwan
No. 265, Dong Sec. 1
Guangming 6th Rd
6. W Taipei - Opening December 28, 2010
No. 10, Section 5, Zhongxiao East Road
Xinyi District
Taipei, 110 Taiwan
I'm leaning towards the W TPE for NYE... that oughta be fun, but am tossing up between all the alternatives (LM, Sheraton and Westin ).
Since the LM isn't even open yet, I'll have to wait for someone to visit first, but how about locations-wise? Which one's near the 101 building? Preferably walkable back to the hotel in a slightly inebriated state...
Thanks in advance!

I stayed at the Westin last weekend. My second stay and upgraded again to the same tired suite (although the pillows are absolutely huge!). The decor badly needs freshening up. I also find the location of the Westin (133 Nanjing East Road) to be a boring area compared to where my friend stayed (he stays in Taipei a few times each month) and as recommended also by SQ_0303 above:

If I'm not after the SPG stay credit or the 4pm checkout, I'd have no problem (and would probably prefer) staying at the Tango Nanshi.

Westin is an older neighborhood, but still a good location.
Taipei 101 organizes the NYE fireworks celebration for Taipei. You should be able to see fireworks from the hotel. Check out FiFi Restaurant in the Eslite Bookstore.
Xinyi is more fun to stay as a tourist. Westin is more for business people.
Originally posted by jhm View PostTango Nanshi is a little boutique in a better location (No 3 Nanjing West Road) compared to the Westin - lots around and very near Zhongshan station. The hotel is also newer and much more trendy than the faded Westin. The room was a bit small but fine (quite hi-tech). About 40% cheaper than the Westin too.

stayed at Tango Nanshi a month ago, it's FABULOUS! Highly recommended. Love the jacuzzi with tv and great features like surround sound entertainment system.
breakfast was poor though.My SQ and flying Videos: Youtube My Travel Blog: AussieFlyer.net

Me considering a few hotels for my trip to Taipei in March 2011 for bridal photoshoot. Will look into Tango Nanshi as one of my choices. Should be looking to stay in 2 hotels at Taipei(probably Caesar Park + cheaper 1 boutique hotel). One just for sleeps during photoshoot day/period as no time to go play.
Anyone who stayed in the below hotels mind giving any feedbacks?
1) Caesar Park Taipei
right next to Taipei station
Near photoshoot bridal studio.
2) Liyuan hotel
Near MRT and Shida night market
