西門雲町旅店 Sky Gate Hotel

Location was the best thing about the hotel. The rooms did their job. We had unlimited access to snacks and drinks at the lobby. Internet wifi was great.

It was right in the middle of Ximending. There was no resto but complementary snacks were available in the lobby

I love the location as it is situated in the heart of Ximending. Below the building is Uniqlo which makes it easy to find. Just a few steps from it is 7/11 and Starbucks which is convenient for quick bites. Aside from that, there is also an array of food stalls, including the famous Scallion Pancake. Although the hotel is on the 12th floor, it was not an issue as the same building houses Mala Hotpot (a highly-recommended hotpot place by tourists and locals alike), ABC Mart, a cinema, and other restaurants. It makes dining, shopping, etc hassle-free. The hotel also offers free snacks and unlimited drinks by the front desk for the guests which was a plus for me. As of the room, it has all the basic amenities needed for a simple and comfortable stay. Above all, the staff are very accommodating and helpful especially the front desk named Jerry. Kudos to him.

The hotel was accessible and conveniently located near most tourist spots in Taipei. It was within walking distance to Ximen Station and close to several bus stops. We had no issues using the elevator during our stay. Our room was cozy and clean. Since the weather was cold, we didn’t even need to turn on the air conditioner. The toilet was very clean, and the cleaner was respectful and trustworthy when we requested room cleaning. Lastly, the staff were very helpful and kind! They responded promptly to our queries as well.

I liked the location as well as the free snacks! It was exactly what I needed as a solo traveler. They were also very accommodating when I needed to arrive a day early and also when I had to stay a few days longer when unfortunate circumstances came up. Super appreciative of their flexibility.
