The hype
Travelers adore the spaciousness and the service, but often note the decor feels 'classic' bordering on dated.
Regent Taipei
$200-280 / gabi
I-book ito kung You want the quintessential 'Grand Dame' Taipei experience with massive rooms, old-school service, and the city's best breakfast buffet.
Bakit Ito Minamahal ng Mga Tao
- Standard rooms start at a massive 45sqm (huge for Taipei)
- The Brasserie breakfast buffet is legendary for its sheer variety
- Location in Zhongshan is unbeatable—walkable to luxury shopping and gritty night markets
Mabilis na Sumisid: It feels like a wealthy aunt's mansion—impeccably maintained and luxurious, but definitely showing its age in the carpet patterns and basement gym.
Sinuri ng @naelynette: I honestly felt like royalty here. The room was massive, the tub was deep, and having high-end shopping right in the lobby was such a flex. Can't believe the price for this level of luxury.

Reality check
The gym is tucked away in the basement (B3) and feels gloomy compared to modern luxury standards.
- You prioritize square footage over trendy design
- You love a high-energy, bustling hotel lobby
- You plan to shop at the luxury boutiques downstairs (Hermès, Chanel)
