Uinn Business Hotel-Shihlin

Everything is simple

The staff was great! They spoke English well and very helpful if you asked anything. It's a great location to stay at, mostly walking distance to night markets and restaurants. The bed is hard if you are use to softer beds. They provide slippers, snacks, water, bathrobes, and free toothbrush, etc.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean, breakfast was average. The beds were very firm, a little too much for my preference. It's a 15 minute walk to the metro and 10 minutes to the Shilin Night Market. I would stay again.

For a family visit in Taipei, UiNN Business Hotel is a great option for a clean and comfortable stay. The staffs here are very friendly and knowledgeable, and the daily breakfast is healthy and tasteful. We had a very good time staying. Thank you for the great services.

Good for the price - 20” walk to Shilin night market. Breakfast is ok- did not have good selection of foods. Room was big enough for family of 4.

The room is large comparing to in Japan. The staff are friendly and the breakfast is delicious. It is close to
Shi Lin Ye Shi. Nice place to stay.

Costs money to do laundry but the detergent is free! Also includes breakfast which is very good quality. Rooms are clean and spacious with bathtub. There is also a bus stop super close which is very convenient.

Friendly reception staff.
Functional and tidy rooms.
Compared to nearby hotels this facility is excellent value for money.
Well designed and private lobby area.
Smart modern decor with a colourful surprise as you exit the lift on your floor.

Great hotel, good facilities and excellent reception staff. Just a couple of points to bear in mind for overseas travellers. It is in a very Taiwanese area so not many western type eating options (if that’s what you want) but on the plus side it is close to the fabulous Shilin night market. About a 15 minute walk to the Metro.
All the other hotels we stayed in has cereals and fruit on offer for breakfast so it might be something to consider if you want to attract western travellers. The scrambled egg was great.

Walking distance to Shilin night market. Walking distance to metro provided you cut through the night market area route. Not a walking distance to metro with luggage. But can take bus to hotel. Hotel and Metro area has a lot of bus to different places easily. Hotel is clean and spacious. Free biscuits and coffee at lobby area

Did a review previously. This review was for an extended stay in the hotel. See previous review. Basically the hotel is clean and good. Btw the basement has water machine which you can top up water (both hot and cold)

This is a pretty good value. It cost about $64 USD per night. I did not opt for the breakfast add on because I was leaving early for my flight.
It's a small room, compared to most US hotels, but it's similar to what I've seen in high density cities like New York and Japan. It's clean, they provided slippers, they have a bidet, they provided bath wash in the shower stall, and they provided a tooth brush and paste.
I was able to walk 10-15 minutes to the Shilin Night Market at around 9pm at night, and the walk seemed safe.
The front desk staff spoke some English, and were super-friendly and helpful. They gave me instructions to the Shilin Market, even though I could've pulled it up in Apple or Google Maps.
To get here, I took the Airport Line Express train (~$5 USD, 160 TWD) from Taipei airport to the Taipei Main Station. From the Taipei Main Station, I was going to take the bus to the hotel, but that night, the bus was delayed by 20 minutes, and so I took a $7 uber to the hotel.
The only thing that could be improved is the air conditioning. It worked fine except that I could faintly detect a "musty" smell from the AC, but it was not bothersome.
Otherwise, a great find!

3.5 stars that could be 4 stars; IF they restarted offering in house breakfasts.
We stayed here 3 times on an Intrepid tour. As a couple we were always given a Superior Twin room; which is much larger that the hotel's base rooms. I can see that other TA reviewers are not always positive about the smaller rooms; especially if a couple.
The hotel no longer opens its breakfast kitchen for guests but offers to certain bookers a 100 NTD pp coupon that can be used in 3 nearby small dining options. This is too little value to actually have a reasonable breakfast AND you will have hassles at the two of the more basic options getting your English order understood and food (as ordered) quickly delivered. The French themed option of the 3 was the best BUT they only open at 08:00.
The hotel has a hot tea and water at the lobby area BUT no coffee, sugar or powdered milk sachets supplied. Guests must then be a real nuisance to this hotel's management team?
The hotel rooms though are modern, very clean, have great in room wi-fi and in room safes. And they do supply the hot drink sachets once you get into your room.
Traffic noise was more noticeable at lower levels.
There is a single, pay to use washing machine and a single, pay to use drier in the B1.
The Shilin night food market (over rated) is a 10-15 flat walk away; otherwise the location of the hotel has little else to offer a foreign traveller.
Intrepid must be getting a good deal to use this hotel but the hotel's rack rate is $$$ and Intrepid want to charge tour participants this exorbitant rate to arrive early or to stay on. It is 1/3 rd the price if you go to Booking.com OR better still, post your tour, spend 220 NTD and get a taxi to the much nicer Gloria Apartment Hotel; which is much more central for exploring Taipei and it has a kitchenette and your own washing machine. Again the best deal here is not to book direct but to use Agoda, etc.

The hotel is ok except that it is a bit far from public transportation. Also it no longer offers breakfast but provides a coupon each day at a nearby restaurant for breakfast. However, neither restaurant offers a traditional restaurant and the coupon is not enough for a dish plus breakfast.

Very clean very spacious very nice staff.
It's a 12 minutes walk from either jiantan or shilin station. If you have luggages it will take more.

But a taxi to and from will cost around 90 twd (3usd)
Overall great hotel at a great price

All the staff were so great & super helpful. Thank you.

Accommodation, co.fort, location related are good But breakfast provision is inconvenient having to be given vouchers to go to a nearby shop to purchase.

Need to open breakfast place.
Need CNN or BBC channel on TV

Likes: room had a refrigerator, several bottles of water, windows on 2 walls (and we could look out at the street below), large bathroom, bidet.
Dislikes: the advertised free breakfast consisted of $100 coupons (1 per person per day) good only at 2 small restaurants 1 block away. The 2 restaurants were open only in the morning (and closed in the evening). I think the hotel's cafe was not-in-service

The staffs were amazing! The amenities were great too!
