Book a hotel near Xi Dong Alishan National Scenic Area, Fanlu

"The hotel is very clean and simple, located inside their tea shop. You can smell the tea in the hallways and stairs and it smells amazing! There's not much nearby and you'll have to go to the nearest little town for needs. The walk is a bit dicey along winding mountain roads with no sidewalks, but there is a bus you can take for 2 stops too. The people who work there/own the hotel are incredible, they went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable! They picked up our luggage at the nearby town when we arrived a bit early so we didn't have to take them around and gave us rides back and forth whenever we needed. It was too kind! They also helped us figure out bus schedules and how to go places. The room is also equipped with everything you need, including snacks, water, toothbrushes, razors..etc there is water, fridge, and microwave that you can use too. Overall it's a nice midway point between chiayi and alishan if you don't want to stay in alishan and also find chiayi too far. Would recommend!"

"***Note this property is not in Ali Shan. But it is great to stay 1 night as a brief layover. Rooms were clean and lots of space. Would recommend for a quick stay."

"If you have a car great place to stay! No car stay in Chiayi. We thought since it was closer to Alishan Forest we could get a taxi or uber up the mountain…it was a struggle! We finally got a taxi 5000 NTD round trip! "

"Just do it! This is the most amazing place I have ever stayed in all my travels, and truly has been the highlight of my trip to Taiwan. The people were generous and kind, the food was the best I’ve had in this country (definitely book the hot pot dinner!), and the rooms are charming, comfortable, and impeccably clean. They tell you exactly the best place to watch the sunrise, overlooking the tea plantation just a 2 minute walk down the street. And the seating area on the terrace for both sunrise and sunset are darn near perfect. If I ever come back to Taiwan I’m 1000% staying here again for a longer period of time! To say this place blew me away is an understatement. "

"Staff makes this property amazing - that are quick to respond to any questions or issues. Stayed on the 7th floor, great for views. "

"The location is excellent, and the room is spacious and clean. However, the on-site parking is limited. If it’s full, guests may need to use an alternative car park located just a few minutes’ walk away."
