When we came to this hotel in Ximen, it was one of the branches of Deli Village. It was not very important. The mobile generation was on the side and it was called P A P A. There was also a big whale outside. Our hotel was in the basement. It was very unique, and the environment was very good. It was very cheap and had a high hippie value. I recommend it to everyone. It is a great Ximen accommodation.

The accommodation is located in Ximen area, walk to Ximen for about 5 minutes, stay for 7 nights, 5 people, 904/night per person. There are soap, shampoo, conditioner, shower cream, toothbrush, hair cap, but the hair dryer is not very strong, it takes a while to blow dry. You can ask for an iron from the hotel. Next to the hotel, there is a shaved ice shop and a shabu shop. You have to check in by yourself, but there are staffs to help. You can leave your luggage. The disadvantage of the 6-person bedroom is that there is one bathroom and one shower room, you have to take turns using them. Sometimes there may be a pipe smell (we didn't adjust the air conditioning in this room, at night the air conditioner bounced to 21 degrees, curled up like a shrimp). The bed and pillows are very good. You can lie down for 5 minutes and then you can pay respect to Indra. #taiwantrip #taiwanhotel #firsttimetaiwan #taipeitaiwan

#TaiwanTravel Hello everyone! Today, we will take you across the sea to check in at Taipei again. We chose to stay at the Papa Whale Hotel 😆🐳 I have been eyeing this hotel for a while now because its location is in Ximending, a familiar area when visiting Taipei. Here, you can do self-check-in by simply entering your personal information and booking number, and you will receive a key card to enter the room (there will be a staff member next to you to provide advice in case you have any questions). We booked a single bed room with breakfast included. The price is lovely, and the room is a lovely size and is well-proportioned. The hotel is on the corner of the street, easy to notice, and it only takes about 10 minutes to walk to the subway.

Address - Takao Restaurant is under the hotel papa whale Atmosphere/Place - Complete with accommodation, bar, restaurant Highlights - Shabu set for one person or buffet, there are many soup bases. Side dishes can be chosen as Lu Rou Fan (pork stew rice) or instant noodles, glass noodles Average price per person - 400+NTD per set (beef) Score - 7/10 Make your own dipping sauce, a bit confusing, if you bring your own dipping sauce, it will be better 😅 #Taiwan attractions #Ximending #Taiwanese shabu #Taipei hotel #Taipei

HOTEL PAPA WHALE 🐳 A chic hotel near Ximending The price we booked was 3,940 baht per night, excluding breakfast (the breakfast here is a hot pot buffet, but the one we booked was not included. If you book with some websites, it will be included. If anyone wants to eat, you can buy it additionally). It is a room for 4 people with a private bathroom and complete amenities. The staff is lovely and very helpful. We arrived at 10 am. We could not check in yet, so we went to leave our bags first. The staff gave us a luggage storage slip and blocked the luggage in the storage area in front of the lobby. When it was time to check in (we had not returned yet), they took the luggage up to the room. When we returned from our trip, we checked in, received the key card, and went up to the room. 😊 There are many convenience stores and restaurants near the hotel. On the day we returned, we checked out at noon and left our luggage because we had a late flight, so we wanted to go out first. They gave us another luggage storage slip and took our luggage to the luggage storage room. We were very impressed with this place because they cleaned it every day. We went to pick up the dolls and piled them up. When we returned to the room, They arranged them beautifully. Towels and hair dryers are also changed every day. For anyone looking for a place to stay in Taipei, we recommend this place as an option. If we have a chance to visit Taipei again, we will go back to stay here. I like it very much 😆 Note 1 The hotel is quite far from Ximen Station (about 10-15 minutes). If you have a big bag, it might be a bit difficult. Note 2 There are many sizes of rooms here. There are single rooms. The price for booking in advance will be more affordable. We booked closer to the time of departure. It was a bit expensive.

This time I'm going to share a An industrial style hotel very close to the Ximending pedestrian zone🏨 PAPA WHALE🐳🐳 The style of the whole hotel is dark and gloomy. Although it's a bit dark, it won't make you feel oppressive It has a texture, golden and dark style✨ The prices are also very affordable. Different booking websites have different prices. It is recommended to compare before ordering! The hotel has a self-service washing machine for guests to wash their clothes. There are so many rooms, it's like walking in a maze. I think the soundproofing is good. I didn't hear any noise from the next room or the corridor when I stayed there. If you feel hungry, get off the bustling Ximending in just a few minutes! Shopping is not a problem. The most important thing is that you can get home immediately after shopping. Interlude My friend and I booked a 12-hour break I thought I could go back to the hotel to eat takeout and rest after I got tired of shopping. As a result, I made a last minute schedule in the morning and checked into the room two hours late The hotel still gave us two more hours to check out later. I think the overall experience is great 👍 I will visit again if I have the chance! ~ PAPA WHALE🐳 No. 46, Kunming Street, Wanhua District, Taipei City . . . #Taipei Accommodation #Taipei Attractions #Accommodation Recommendations #Taiwan Hotel #Ximending Accommodation #Ximending #High CP value hotel

Walk straight to Ximending. Exit the hotel and walk straight. Breakfast is great. Even though I woke up late and came down late, but the cut-off time is 10 o'clock. You can go and get some and eat until you're full. The dumplings are delicious. The staff can speak English = as good as Thai people 555. We exercised quite well. There are a lot of rooms, a bit of a maze, but the rooms are good. The shower area and the bathroom and sink are separated. I will go again. I like it.

Good hotel, lots of photo spots, delicious breakfast 🫰🏻💗

Taiwanese mystery boxes are popular among art toy collectors, especially the POP MART brand, which features cute characters like Molly, Dimoo, and Labubu. The POP MART Ximending store in Taipei is a popular destination, offering a wide variety of toys at affordable prices. The mystery boxes here are fun and worthwhile, perfect for collectors who want a unique shopping experience. 💰Average price per person: The price of a single mystery box ranges from NT$420 to NT$750 📍Address: POP MART Ximending (西門町) – Flagship Store • The largest store in Taiwan, with 4 floors, an exhibition area, and a VIP lounge #GetDiscountsWithoutLuck

I am a person who rarely posts comments. But I have stayed at this hotel for the third time. . Every time my advance request. If there are any requirements after check-in and at the desk. . Everything is arranged. Every once in a while I lived in a room in the basement. . A person or couple. Or if you live with a friend. . I think it's a pretty good choice. Go travel. . My requirements are actually quite high. But a hotel I personally think can sincerely recommend. The desk staff was very polite and maybe I will travel again soon. Will definitely choose this one hotel. 👍🏿#TaipeiHotel

#triptravelasia #Taiwantravel Accommodation 📞 Hello Hello, I heard it and answered. We came to visit Taipei. When booking accommodation, we saw Papa Whale Hotel 🐳. There was only one room. The location is good in Ximending. It is very convenient to travel. It also has a breakfast buffet. The accommodation is decorated in a retro style. There are many places to take pictures.📷 Even though there are many tour groups staying here, it is private. The hotel's restaurant serves Japanese food and desserts. It is delicious and the price is reasonable. It is similar to other hotels in Ximending. There are no windows, but they have fake windows. It does not feel stuffy.

Raining day and check in hotel feel nice.#Papa whale

I haven't been to Taiwan for a long time💕 I had a quick trip with my husband for 3 days and 2 nights We want to choose a cheaper and more convenient hotel🏨 Generally many cost 700 a day 😮💨 short trip Ni is really expensive However, this hotel papa whale in Ximen and Beimen I highly recommend In fact, it is not a new hotel 🏨 However it is kept quite well 👍🏻 It is about 10 minutes or so at Ximending Station If you go back at night, you will also pass many famous restaurants🤪 If you want to walk, you can reach Ximen in only 5 minutes Convenient to eat There are many famous restaurants nearby🍴 with hot pot dim sum and so on minutes walk to Cheng Wei Zhen 💕💕 It actually has quite a few rooms on one floor So its size is definitely not big We carry small suitcases so it's fine But if it is large luggage it may be a little crowded 🤏🏻 His design is not bad either The toilet and shower are separate 🤔 so it is convenient to use The water pressure is good enough 😝 very comfortable to shower However, the sound insulation of the room is really a little worse🤏🏻 In the morning I would hear people in the hallway talking And our 500 a day includes breakfast 🥣 He has to eat next door However the quality is average No need to add special Anyway, a few minutes walk is already Yonghe Soy Milk🤪🤪 But it's really high value for money🥹 Short-term ones can think about #TaipeiHotel #ParentFunGood Places #FoodGuide #trip #Taiwan #TaiwanTravel #Taiwan City Attractions #Taiwan Must Visit Photo Spots #Taiwan Places #Taipei #Valentine’s Day Good Places 2024 #Couple Daily #Couple Date

The location is very good, the room is very clean and tidy, but the bathroom design is a bit thin, but the dry and wet areas are clearly separated, which is good enough! The price/performance ratio is very high. If price is an important consideration, you can choose this hotel.

Hotel PaPa Whale is located in the Ximending shopping district, offering accommodation decorated in a modern style. The property is about a 7-10 minute walk from the MRT Ximen Station. Guests must check in using a self-service kiosk at exactly 15:00. There are automatic laundry machines and free drinking water dispensers available. Hotel PaPa Whale does not allow smoking in any of the rooms, but smoking is permitted in designated areas.

The location is near Ximending. The restaurant in the industrial-style hotel is very luxurious and beautiful... Taihu Bar is very famous in Hong Kong and is also a very good bar that many people like. Uniquely designed handmade beer with many varieties and delicious taste. I must stay here every time I go to Taiwan and book on trip.com

#Taipei Hotel Taipei HOTEL PAPA WHALE is located on Kunming Street, Wanhua District, Taipei City, about a 10-minute walk from MRT Ximending Station! The hotel has a retro industrial style and the lobby design is artistic. The hotel uses a self-service check-in system, making the check-in process very convenient! This time we stayed in an elegant double room. The room was designed in the hotel's industrial style with soft colors and was very well cleaned! The toilet and shower room are two independent spaces. The shower room is very spacious. Overall, it is a hotel with a very high CP value!

Papa Whale Hotel 🐬🏢 A hotel in Ximenting area. We stayed here for 3 nights when we went to Taipei this time. It is a hotel that is not far from Ximenting Walking Street and MRT Ximenting. It is convenient to travel. There are many types of rooms to choose from. We stayed in the Soho style, which can accommodate two people. The facilities are complete. Personally, we think the room may be a bit small. The light in the room is a bit dim. But overall, it is okay. The bathroom is spacious. The water flows well. The wet and dry zones are clearly divided. Most importantly, the breakfast is delicious and there are many to choose from. The price including breakfast that we booked at that time was about 1,775 baht, which is very good value. The lobby may have a cafe downstairs. The hotel is near 7-Eleven Hello Kitty. If anyone plans to go to Taiwan, this is another good choice. #papawhale #taiwan #taipei #ximending #ximendingnightmarket

Among the accommodation options in Ximending, PaPa Whale Richardson is a great value for money choice. The price is relatively affordable, but it provides a comfortable and warm accommodation environment. First of all, the hotel's location is very convenient. Located near Ximending, the surrounding living facilities are very good. A variety of dining and shopping options can be easily found. In addition, it only takes about 10 minutes to walk to the MRT station, so transportation is convenient. In terms of rooms, although the price is reasonable, But the room is well designed. The industrial-style decoration makes people feel comfortable and warm. The bathroom and toilet are separate and fully equipped. Provides a good living experience. Although the hotel has few public facilities, But the reading area on the first floor and the outdoor landscape cafe restaurant It provides a place to relax, suitable for self-guided travelers to rest 👍🏻👍🏻 For breakfast, the hotel provides a buffet breakfast with good quality and a comfortable restaurant environment, allowing people to enjoy a wonderful morning. The most surprising thing is that there are the well-known Haibawang Group hotpot restaurant Qianzhen Aquatic Products and ice shop Ice Papa near the hotel, giving guests the opportunity to taste the famous local food. Overall, PaPa Whale Hotel provides a great value for money accommodation experience. Whether it is the comfortable room, convenient location or friendly service, it leaves a deep impression. I will recommend this hotel to other friends who come to Taipei for tourism, so that everyone can also enjoy such a pleasant stay experience. #Taipei Hotel

This time I came with my family of 8 people. The room was clean and the bathroom was well-proportioned. Breakfast had a variety of choices, but the room was a bit small. The location was a bit far from Ximen, but it was close to 7-11 Kitty. Overall, it was very good. #TaiwanTravel

Located near the Ximending business district, it is a quiet place in a busy area! Walk for 2 minutes and you will arrive at the famous Cheng Weizhen! There is already a Japanese all-you-can-eat restaurant and bar downstairs! The only downside is that the hotel rooms have no windows!

Easy access, about 6 minutes walk from Ximen Station. Environment - Stylish lobby and exterior, but smaller interior space in rooms. Poor sound insulation. The room type I stayed in was patterned by three different dolls on the wall, I personally prefer the crow and another green lizard, so it was stated with the lobby front desk at the check-in request. In addition, the service staff in the lobby did not provide any service, anyway, they were only responsible for helping customers check in and check out at the front desk!没有表情，完全没有客服。 Rating - 6/10

Check in/out is self-service, very convenient. The basement room is small, but the toilet is big enough. It is good for two people without too much luggage. The price is reasonable. The location is a quiet place in a busy area. It is very close to Ximending Upper Circle. There are several convenience stores, snacks, and hand-brewed drinks downstairs. Next time I will stay in the upstairs room to try it out.
