Access

The hotel is at a convenient place for transportation. It is an 8-minute walk away to MRT City Government Station, a 40-minute drive from Taoyuan International Airport and a 15-minute drive from Songshan International Airport. To ride the bus from Taoyuan International Airport, you can take the Oi Bus 1960 line and get off at the bus station at City Hall Station. There is also a hotel limousine service. I think the taxis are the most convenient, but the buses and MRTs are close to the station so it is easy to get to sightseeing spots. Also, hotel parking is free.

Summary

It was a nice designer hotel originating in Paris, and it was a discerning hotel full of art. From the entrance to the room, everything was unified with modern interiors which were very sophisticated. Location was very good and it was easy move around on rainy days to walk along the roof to the nearby commercial facilities and MRT station. It is a business district where corporate headquarters gather, so it is recommended for both business and leisure travelers.
