City Suites Taoyuan Gateway
$60-90/ yö
Varaa tämä, jos You have a brutal 6 AM flight or a late-night arrival and just need a clean bed 10 minutes from TPE.
Miksi ihmiset rakastuvat sitä
- 5-minute taxi ride to Taoyuan International Airport (approx. NT$200)
- Walking distance (8 mins) to Dayuan MRT Station (A15)
- Packed breakfast boxes provided for pre-6:30 AM departures
Pikakatsaus: A functional, slightly tired transit dormitory that exists solely to save you from sleeping on the airport floor.
Arvioinut @lilibethnewham: I stayed here for a quick recharge and was blown away by the morning view. Opening those curtains to see the river and the city waking up was such a core memory. The room is huge and gave me the perfect headspace to start my Taiwan adventure. Totally worth it.

Reality check
The 'Gateway' name implies it's connected to the airport, but it's actually a short taxi ride or a confusing walk from the MRT.
- You are purely looking for a crash pad between flights
- You are an aviation geek who wants to watch planes land from your window
- You are on a budget and refuse to pay airport hotel premiums
Siisteys ja kunnossapito

- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some corners and carpets show age-related dust.
- Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are typically clean with good water pressure, though grout can be discolored in older units.
- Maintenance: The building is aging; expect scuffed walls, worn carpets, and occasional AC rattles.
- Linens & towels: Functional and clean, but don't expect Egyptian cotton plushness.
- Odors & scents: Non-window rooms often struggle with a persistent musty/damp smell.

- There is a water dispenser on some floors, so bring a refillable bottle.

“I am staying for a layover and would appreciate a room on a high floor away from the elevator. If available, a room with a window is preferred to avoid humidity issues.”
FAQ & Piilotut vinkit
Kaikki mitä haluat todella tietää ennen varaamista.
Is there a free shuttle to the airport?
No. You must take a taxi (~$7 USD) or the MRT (Dayuan Station A15).
Can I walk to the hotel from the MRT?
Yes, it's about an 8-minute walk. Follow the hotel signs, not Google Maps, as the path cuts through a parking lot.
Is breakfast included?
Usually yes. It's a buffet starting at 6:30 AM. For earlier flights, ask the front desk for a 'breakfast box' the night before.
Are there restaurants nearby?
Barely. Aside from the hotel's own buffet, the area is industrial. Eat at the airport or Gloria Outlets before heading here.
Does the hotel have a gym?
No, there is no fitness center or pool on the property.
Can I store my luggage here?
Yes, the front desk will hold luggage if you arrive before check-in.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- ✨
If walking from Dayuan MRT, look for the pedestrian iron bridge near the river for a shortcut.
- ✨
The 'breakfast box' is basic (sandwich/drink) but a lifesaver for 5 AM departures.
- ✨
Uber drivers sometimes struggle to find the specific pickup point; the hotel-arranged taxi is more reliable for early mornings.
5 asiaa, jotka sinun pitää tietää ennen matkaasi
💡The 'City View' is often just a view of a highway or a construction site.
💡The carpets in the hallways have seen better decades and contribute to the 'vintage' smell.
💡You might spot wild birds by the river behind the hotel if you're up early.
💡The shower pressure is surprisingly aggressive (in a good way) for an older building.
💡There is a coin-operated laundry room, which is a rare bonus for long-term travelers.
