The Huan Hotel Taichung

We drove to Taichung to checkout the Flora Exposition and decided to stay at this hotel because of its high user reviews. Overall, we were a bit disappointed with our stay, mostly because of the relatively poor services. While the property is brand spanking new, the rooms comfortable, there are better choices in Taichung at the same price level. Our disappointments were as follow: 1. While the hotel probably has less than 20 guests in total, we had to wait for the rooms to be ready for us to check-in. Granted, we arrived at 1:30pm, a bit early than the customary 3:00pm check-in time, but the hotel rooms were clearly unoccupied, and we were made to wait to enter our rooms. 2. We wanted to check out the very nice swimming pool and the night sky in the evening, but the pool area was closed at 9:30pm. When we arrived at 9:30pm, the doors were locked and no attendants were available. 3. The breakfast was adequate, but not spectacular (as compared to other hotels in Taichung). Coffee and tea need to be requested, not offered. While the property was nice and comfortable, but without the services, it would be hard for us to come back again.

Our room is very clean and spacious. It came with soft, comfy bathrobes and towels. The bedding is rough and could definitely be improved on. The hotel's rooftop pool and gym look great and have an amazing view. There's also a rooftop massage spa area that has to be booked *one week* in advance. The breakfast selection was disappointing though.
