What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
features a distinctive building, handsome and warm modern/minimalist rooms, and a restaurant with a lively atmosphere and a wide-ranging international menu.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Feng Jia Night Market is a ten-minute walk away, drawing nightly crowds for Taiwanese street food.
The rooms
Wood tones keep the minimalist rooms warm, and square recessed balconies tuck into the building's facade grid.
The gym
Treadmills face full-length windows in the third-floor gym, with free weights and yoga mats across wood floors.
At the table
The Dining Room serves hot breakfast buffets, then turns to à la carte Western dishes for lunch and dinner.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
