Le Meridien Taipei

樓層

From the moment we stepped out of the car, the arrival experience lacked warmth. The doorman who opened our car door did not greet us warmly and seemed entirely disinterested, as if he just wanted to get the job done without any hospitality or a simple smile.

The room itself felt dated and cramped, particularly the bathroom, which was far too small for two people. Furthermore, it lacked a bathtub—something we fully expect from a luxury establishment. The shower experience was incredibly disappointing; on our first night, the overhead shower had low water pressure and was barely lukewarm. While the hand shower worked slightly better on the second night, it still fell short of expectations.

The bed was equally frustrating. The mattress is of low quality and lacks proper support; every time my husband turned around, the movement woke me up.

The only plus from this hotel is its location. Very conveniently located within the shopping district.

From the initial arrival to the restaurant service and housekeeping, nothing about this property reflects a 5-star standard. It felt much closer to a 3-star hotel. This will certainly be our last time staying here.

Had a full day business meeting here. The meeting arrangements as expected. The bento box lunch was a nice surprise and exceeded my expectation. However i was expecting a call from the front desk and the staff did not manage to help me get to the call, which was a miss

7/10

Stayed in the Deluxe King room for 4 nights.

House keeping was great. Hotel facilities were top notch. Decent buffet breakfast spread. In-room dining was speedy. Room was modern and clean. Easy access to apps on TV (Netflix, Youtube etc). Bathroom was clean and modern (Toto toilet). Good WiFi speed (Speedtest 300Mbps download, 200Mbps upload). Great location.

I had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay here.

First impression upon arrival was terrible, the porter was very rude and yelled at me to go in while they take my luggage. The receptionist wasn’t warm nor kind at all, and my room wasn’t available at 1.30pm. When I told her I could settle for a lower floored room with a nice view, she gave me a room right away. When I got to the room, I was absolutely shocked. There was a strong moldy smell, was at the end of the corridor AND the room had zero views to speak off, was covered entirely by another building which the diners can see directly into the room. I was told that it had a “nice” Taipei 101 view. Imagine how dissappointed I was. When another receptionist called me back about the room change, she was EXTREMELY and unbelieavably rude and even argued with me about the “views” of this room with a terribly harsh tone.

地點

We stayed 8 nights.
Check in was efficient.

Recognition of status [Titanium] upgraded to a Junior suite.

The suite was fabulous and very spacious and comfortable.  We were surprised by the location of their suite's, right by the lifts.  Thank You for the upgrade.

We were advised upon checkin that soft drinks and beer in our mini bar are complimentary, but not once did the staff replenish them!  What hotels do not replenish the mini bars? Let me guess, those that are supposedly free!

The hotel is quiet and in a great location.  Close to so many shopping centres, easy walk to the Town Hall and Taipei 101.

On 12/03/26 we felt the earthquake that struck on the east coast [4].  They said it was intensity 2 in Taipei city.  We were lying on the bed and boy did it sway back and forth.  The lamp shade was also swaying.  We quickly packed our backpack and went downstairs and to our surprise Reception were not aware of it.  In fact when we told them they discounted what we said by saying "couldn't be as no other guests have reported it" well guess what there's always a first!  we pressed the matter and finally they looked on the internet and responded "Oh yes, yes". 

While we understand this may happen often in your country, however you are hosting many international guests like us who have never experienced this before and we felt their response and lack of providing information to us very poor.  I'd hate to be in this hotel if there is ever an emergency.  We had to interrogate both of them at reception as to what the safety protocols are in such events.  They didn't seem to know much and left us with little to no confidence, to that point we walked out of the hotel as it felt safer to do so.  We were not sure if there would be after shocks.

Club Lounge
- The club is small and un-inviting, we observed people don't stay long.  It's basically one small room.
-Food is not appetising and served COLD even when it should be a hot dish. 
-Food isn't well presented and mostly seafood.
-Small selection of spirits.
-The many staff are not proactive or friendly and mainly just sat behind the desk.

Breakfast
- Lack of staff understanding 'any' English for a global hotel chain we were surprised.
- I was shocked when I ordered poached eggs x2 to be delivered 1 egg in a tiny dish (see photo), not served on toast or anything.
- The coffee is terrible, how can you get this so wrong.  Its a coffee machine, there's also a coffee machine in the club lounge at least they can provide an ok flat white, no signs of this being available at breakfast, as we asked.
- The scrambled eggs where like rubber and totally over cooked one day, then extremely runny and undercooked the next day, this is not good for you so we gave up on their terrible eggs.
- Breakfast does not cater for westerners.

We thought this maybe a Taiwan thing on how they cook eggs [or not] "RAW" but no it isn't.  We moved to the Sheraton Taipei and their eggs and omelettes were lovely.
The food in general was alot more palatable at the Sheraton Taipei.

We would not stay here again purely because of the food.

Dobra lokalizacja w centrum Taipei. Blisko do atrakcji jak wieżowiec ,,101", Elephant Mountain. Mnóstwo ekskluzywnych sklepów w okolicy.
