"Great view from the balcony"

"The property is beautiful and the room is spacious. "

"They made an effort to check on your estimated arrival time and upon arrival, I’m greeted with great smiles and hospitality. Welcome drink is nice too. I got the panoramic view room which is excellent. And breakfast was served in room to let me enjoy the nice view. Grohe shower set is just some of the things u know they value about. Parking is also available and it’s just mins away from lots of eating places. Well maintained and definitely worth every penny "

"Great location, comfy hotel. Bed is on the softer side "

"This resort is quite good and very spacious. As a family of four, we had plenty of room and felt very comfortable. The amenities were also impressive. Complimentary snacks, beverages, and coffee(pods)—a pleasant surprise, as these are usually not free in many other hotels—were available throughout the stay. The breakfast was excellent, with plenty of choices and a large, airy dining hall. Since we stayed on a weekday, there weren’t many other guests, so we could easily pick what we thought was the best table, with a beautiful view of the fountain in the front yard. In the afternoon, we spent some enjoyable time at the pool in the backyard. My sons had a lot of fun playing with water and water guns. While it’s not comparable to a water park in terms of attractions, it is still a great feature to have. Later, we bought discounted tickets to the amusement park, but unfortunately, we had to return them due to heavy rain. The lady at the counter was very understanding and processed the refund without any questions, even though the reason for returning the tickets was obvious. The parking lot, like everything else here, is spacious and conveniently located on the L1 floor. It's free until the evening on the day of checkout, which is another plus. Overall, we had a great experience. I hope we can return one day."

"A memorable stay. Excellent and impressive services, 10/10. Really appreciated their warm caring. Area is quite, clean and comfy. Highly recommended to this place though its quite expensive. But definitely worth it."

"In any other place, I would have given this 4 stars. However, given the shortage of reasonably-priced, top-notch hotels around the lake, my 5-star rating reflects what was available for Taiwan. The room was very nice, and the hotel was close to the bus station and to the start of the trails around the lake. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and made our entire stay around Sun Moon Lake a great experience. Any issues we experienced, such as a slow elevator, narrow stairs, too few electrical outlets, etc., were very minor, and are to be expected throughout Taiwan. One thing remember: Take your key when you go out. Without it, you won't be able to get back into the hotel after 9:00 as the staff are off. Ask the staff about the local restaurant serving local mountain vegetable-based dishes. You won't regret it. "

"Small room, simple and has all the basic needs. Mr. and Mrs. Liu were exceptional hosts, providing great hospitality that made the stay truly enjoyable. "

"The grounds are absolutely spectacular. Incredible, world-class gardens, village charm, and a true cultural experience. The ambiance is incredible. The staff was also amazing. One staff member was a particularly great English speaker, and throughout the day, she would proactively check on us and offer recommendations or help. Other staff wasn’t as good with English, but were incredibly genuine and caring, and the language challenge was nothing a translation app couldn’t overcome. Rooms were spacious and super unique adding to a beautiful cultural experience. However, the bathroom area had no fan or dehumidifier and had a mold problem. Plus, no daily housekeeping, led the room to smell musty and unfresh after a day. The food was all vegetarian. The lunch restaurant is only open on the weekend and is super high quality and not an issue. But the main restaurant felt more like a vegetarian camp buffet. You need a car or (cheap) taxi to visit other villages in the area for other food options, which is fun, but better if it wasn’t as much of a necessity. I still recommend to most who aren’t too persnickety and looking for a unique cultural experience, but I think you’ll find that the village has amazing potential to be a super unique, luxury, yoga/zen/Taiwanese retreat, but it doesn’t quite deliver all around to command a solid 5 star review. For us, pricing was fair, but if they round out the experience, could charge a good premium."
