Hostels w mieście Hualian

One of the better (if not the best) hotel chains I’ve stayed at in Taiwan. I’ve visited Taiwan about 10 times and stayed here for 2 nights, and overall I was very satisfied with the experience. They provide free bicycles (3 hours limit), which is useful for getting around Hualien. Breakfast has a good spread, and there are complimentary ice cream and drinks available in the lobby around the clock. We didn’t realise they also offer late-night supper from 7pm to 9pm, which was honestly as good as a proper dinner buffet, with a good mix of Western and Chinese dishes and even live entertainment. The room was spacious and well maintained, with no hygiene concerns. Shower water pressure was good. Noise levels were generally fine, though louder sounds like furniture movement could occasionally be heard. The hotel is conveniently located near a convenience store, restaurants, KTV, and a cinema, and it’s about a 10-minute walk from the station. You can also cycle to the night market within 15 minutes, making it super easy to get around the main area without getting a taxi. Overall, a very good stay and very good value for money. While a gym would be nice, I would definitely consider staying at other branches on future trips.

The room is compact but still comfortable for four adults. The receptionist was exceptionally friendly and helpful, answering many of my questions and offering great suggestions over the phone even before check-in. The complimentary breakfast was delicious. We also borrowed four bicycles for free and enjoyed a wonderful ride along the seashore. Strongly recommend!

Easy to check in and check out, well placed in Hualien (close to the train station, not so far from the beach and some yummy restaurants around) ... Those things are already nice. But the architecture of this hostel is also pretty neat! The rooms are rather beautiful imo and I was surprised to see the bathroom in the room, it made me happy (compared to public one in some other places, I prefer to have the bathroom in the room, only shared with the girls). I liked that. The sink out of the bathroom but still in the room is also very well placed so you can wash your face or hands even if someone is in the bathroom. Breakfast is rather simple but enough to start the day. Highly recommended ! 😊

Good location and short walking distance from hualien train station. The breakfast offers a wide variety of options, highly recommended the breakfast buffet. The shampoo and other toiletries were really pleasant to use, with a lovely scent.

Pokój, łóżko, łazienka i wszystko inne było niesamowicie czyste i przestronne, co zapewniało komfort. Osuszacz powietrza działał trochę nierówno, co było nieco rozczarowujące. Gotowanie było dozwolone w holu. Nie rozumiem, dlaczego nie ma 9, ale jest idealnie 10. Chcę tu zostać ponownie i pojechać do Hualien. Jedynym minusem jest odległość od dworca kolejowego, ale do stacji Xincheng można dojść pieszo w mniej niż 30 minut. Gorąco polecam! Dla porównania, większość tanich noclegów jest tania, więc jeśli chcesz nocleg w dobrym stanie, spodziewaj się ceny około 40 000 wonów koreańskich za noc. Jest powód, dla którego najtańsze kosztują około 20 000 wonów. To tylko moje osobiste doświadczenie.

So happy to see Hualian Charming Hotel as I walked out of Hualian Train Station, and the main bus stop is between the two buildings. Despite its proximity it is surprisingly quiet. Superb location for intercity travelling plus exploring the city by bus and to Taroko. Lots of eateries, souvenir shops and Family Mart and 7 Eleven. Can't ask for more. Hot and cold breakfast has meat and vegetarian selections, coffees and teas, and salads. No fuss check in and out, complimentary biscuits and hot drinks in the lobby until 8.00 PM. Rooms are spacious and clean, good range of shampoo and shower gel; can't ask for more.

住兩天，四人房 這是第三次住。 房間相當乾淨，櫃檯人員也很親切，沒有車位的話，櫃檯人員還會幫忙移他們公司車走，讓你停車。 對面就是小七，附近還有全聯，中美街上很多好吃的，也算是方便了。 硬要挑不足的地方就是 頂樓的戲水池相當小，最大四個人下去大概就全滿，白天太熱晚上也只開到九點多。 一樓的早餐有特別的餐點是不錯的，但是不知道為什麼一樓冷氣不夠涼，吃的有點熱。 整理來說是很不錯的。

Overall a good experience (except one thing - see in the bottom). The location is somewhat central and on the walking promenade, but not very close to the railway station or the waterfront. About 25-35 min walk to the railway station but still okay. About 15 min to the waterfront. Food options: there are a couple of local restaurants right near across from the promenade, including a noodle shop, a tempura donburi and a fried seafood place - all along the promenade. There's also a PX Mart not too far away, about 5 min walk. The rooms are spacious and clean, very new renovation (as of 2025, seems like 2023-2024), no fridge in the room (on the first floor only), but there's a kettle. The bed was somewhat stiff but okay. Overall felt like great value for the location and the quality, and especially the room size. The only drawback - Easy to fix - was the towels. There was no proper size bathroom towels on my stay in May 2025. The small towels are rather insuficcient for showering.

Very positive experience. Place is quite nice if you look for a decent Hostel in Hualien (even though it might look a little bit run down from the outside). Nice roof top terrace for a night cup and 24h free flow coffee/tea is a plus. Communication with the front desk staff varies a lot, depending on the individual English language skills of the staff on duty, but has never been a real issue. Moreover, we‘ve been quite surprised having a German speaking guy there the day we‘ve checked in.

Nice hotel with great staff! Location is good as it is very close to multiple good restaurants, a mall and several convenience stores.
