Art'otel Taipei Ximending

Fantastic front desk service! So attentive! But they might consider to remove the carpets inside the room. Otherwise everything else is perfect. Breakfast joints are all in walking distance.

The hotel is a bit far from the metro - it takes me 8 minutes of walk at my fastest speed but more realistically it takes about 12-15 minutes. But! It makes up with its amenities. I really like the Smart TV which has youtube and even free netflix! The toilet also has a bidet :) And the electrical plugs are universal. They also provide complimentary access to a well-equiped gym nearby! tip: there's a restroom you can access when you collect your luggage and you can use it to freshen up!

Room space is quite limited, located more towards the back of ximending night market, 10 minutes walk from mrt station to hotel. Quiet environment

Artistic stay with good location to commercial area and great service.

We had a great stay at this hotel. The hotel was clean, spacious and with friendly dtaff

If you happen to travel in Taiwan and stay in Ximending I can recommend this 3stars hotel. This is for those who like "A bit on a pricy side meets artsy "kind of space vibe. Just learned that Taiwan has this culture of making their relationship to customers feel like really at home and not too luxurious. Imagine that even their staffs are just wearing everyday clothes on shorts and shirts with no branding at all. You would just be surprised that they are part of the hotel team when you ask for help. The style of the hotel is on the "Industrial meets Pop culture ". Details l've noticed are as follows 1. Exterior Signage: • The hotel's exterior features a modest, multi-story building with a weathered appearance. The illuminated hotel sign, "ARTOTEL," is prominently displayed above the entrance, surrounded by lights to draw attention. 2. Lobby Area: • The lobby has an industrial-chic design, with exposed pipes on the ceiling and large, retro-style hanging lights. There is a wooden counter with multiple desktop computers, likely serving as a check-in area or a business center for guests. • The signage directs guests to amenities such as laundry and restrooms, indicating a basic yet functional setup. 3. Reception Desk: • The reception area features a vintage-inspired counter with ornate detailing, adding a touch of character to the space. • Behind the counter, shelves are lined with various items, possibly for guest use or sale, contributing to a somewhat cluttered but cozy atmosphere. Overall, the hotel combines functional amenities with a unique, industrial aesthetic, characteristic of a two-star establishment aimed at ambience conscious travelers seeking a bit of style.
