The hype
Travelers universally worship the rooftop pool and the breakfast buffet, but younger guests often find the room aesthetics a bit 'grandma's mansion'.
Shangri La Far Eastern Plaza Hotel Taipei
$220-350/ gece
Şu durumda rezervasyon yapın You want the absolute best view of Taipei 101 from a rooftop pool and appreciate old-school, marble-clad luxury over trendy minimalism.
İnsanlar Neden Seviyorlar
- The 43rd-floor heated rooftop pool offers the single best panoramic view of Taipei 101 in the city
- Rooms are massive by Taipei standards (starting at 430 sq ft) with walk-in closets
- Shang Palace (Cantonese) and Marco Polo (Italian) are destination dining spots in their own right
Hızlı Özet: It’s the grand dame of Taipei hotels—impeccable and imposing, but the 'Song Dynasty' decor feels a decade behind the modern luxury curve.
@homeintheworldblog tarafından değerlendirildi: I felt like absolute royalty staying here. Waking up to that direct view of Taipei 101 was a total bucket list moment for me. The rooftop pool is the perfect spot to unwind after exploring the city. If you love classic luxury, this is the place.

“I would appreciate a high-floor room facing Taipei 101. If a 101 view isn't available, a quiet room away from the elevators with an unblocked city view is preferred.”
