Guest reviews for The Howard Plaza Hotel Taipei

4 out of 5
Loved the staff overall, but the staff recommendation to take the airport bus turned out to be a serious, serious mistake. The staff said the bus came every half hour. After waiting 35 minutes and seeing no signs of the bus, I had to rush to get a cab. Very stressful. At one point, one staff member said, "This is a city bus, we have no control over it." I found that unacceptable. Recommending this service put me at serious risk of missing my trans-Pacific flight. They need to provide accurate information about this service.
