I have been staying this hotel for years. This is the first time I stayed after pandemic. Even though the facilities is a bit of wearing out, it is still very nice. And the professional and friendly staffs are another reason for me to go back. The location is probably the best compare to other hotels in Taipei. It’s so easy to go everywhere from there. And their bed is very comfy. However, the bathroom was not design for shower purpose. If you are a bath person, the design is a great design for you. For shower people, the shower head is not exactly in a right position. I made the room wet the first time I took a shower. So i had to carefully shower if I dn’t want a wet room. It’s not difficult and you can always ask for more towers.

The room is more like a run down motel than a 4 star hotel. Worn furniture, torn window curtains, burned carpet, worst of all the room has bad smell.

I visited Taipei 6 times for 100 days the past year. This is one of the worst hotels I stayed at (13-15 hotels this year). Lobby and restaurant looks nice, and that’s where it ends. Room had worn carpet, lumpy bed, baseboards scratched up, bathroom had mold on the caulking and around the sink and mirror. Gross!!!! The water pressure was too low—-took 30 min to fill the tub and couldnt shower off the soap. Asked to use the restaurant at 1am for a call i had to make to my US office and the desk staff said we cant use that area after hours—-im not eating, just sitting on a chair! He said to use lobby, but they have christmas music playing loud and said they cant turn the volume down. Definitely not worth the $119 rate. Lot of hotels at $90-110 that are better.

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Located in walking distance to many eatery, even to night market and Taipei 101 building. However, room is very outdated. Room has an odor, damp carpet smell like moldy smell. Room experience is not pleasant

Excellent location, good price, little else
Since COVID, the gym and restaurant have been closed, and remained so as of mid-February, so the vibe inside is ghost town-ish. The heater in the rooms was not working (blowing even colder air) during both of my last two (winter) stays, so the room was uncomfortably cold. Would much prefer to stay somewhere else, but this location is quite convenient and the price is reasonable, unlike nearly every other option in this area.

The staff at United Hotel are friendly and helpful. The hotel itself, however, has serious problems. 1) On checking in, I was asked for a 1,000 TWD deposit, which was not disclosed in the Orbitz booking process. 2) The wifi internet is useless, with a maximum download speed of 10 Mbps. 3) In the middle of the night, banging and hissing noises, and sounds of rushing water, started coming from the A/C unit. If you ever lived in a cold part of the US, you will recognize these sounds as an old-timey radiator in winter. Clunk, clunk, sssshhhhhh, hissssssssss, BANG. All night long. 4) On the top floor of the hotel, where I stayed, just off the elevator, I overheard a violent argument between a man and a woman. The woman opened the door of the room and tried to leave, and the man slammed the door shut, trapping her in the room. Lots of screaming and cursing in both English and Chinese. I reported this to the front desk, and they told me, "Oh, he is a famous model. He's lived in the hotel for years. Recently he's having trouble paying his bill, and he was probably arguing with his management." ... ? Overall, in this price range, there are better-maintained hotels in Taipei that don't feature a lunatic fashion model doing a Keith Moon on his room. Avoid.
