Hotels near East District Shopping Area

"So I’ll lead off by saying this was probably my 10-11th stay at the Tempus. I stayed there regularly over the years for business so when I took my family I thought the experience would be great as usual. WRONG. In its day I would have rated it an 4 or 5, but those days are over: Apparently the Tempus is under new ownership and although the staff is great the hotel has gone downhill. The focus has turned to renting out floors to businesses and rooms as apartments for city dwellers. The breakfast used to be amazing and on the main floor. It’s moved into the basement and the food quality is poor, a mere afterthought to what it was. The rooms although clean, are dated and seemed to have patch jobs all over. No soap was in our room and upon asking we were told the hotel was out of soap and we were told to use the shampoo in the shower. In the shower the shower head was broken so rather than repair it they put in a secondary hand held sprayer that sits at waist level (I’m 5’9, have fun tall folks). The complimentary safe had an out of order sticker on it as did the room our friends were staying in. The bar is now shut down as is the spa. In the end they have lost a long time customer and I should’ve stayed at the splendor or the evergreen which are still up to snuff and right down the road. Best I can say about the Tempus is that the location is great, but stay away.l, it’s trash claiming to be a 5 star hotel. "

"Nice, clean, and convenient location. Close to Sogo and lots of food around, plus a 7-Eleven right across the street. The morning breakfast was an added benefit. We would stay here again. "

"Breakfast is decent. Staff is nice, very helpful. But this property is a 2+ or 3 * hotel, could not be a 4* hotel."

"Family room was spacious. Really enjoyed our stay."

"Fabulous! Definitely more affordable than other hotels and trily excellent rooms, location, staff."

"Bar on 8th floor with great dark atmosphere. Barman was great at making cocktails, friendly, top customer service! Breakfast so much to choose from. My favourite Taichung hotel and I've tried a few with work. Staff always so polite and attentive. All round winner!"

"Wonderful breakfast, lots of selections. The only small gripe is when it gets busy in the restaurant for the breakfast buffet, the visitors and restaurant staff move about in a disorderly fashion. Weight room, swimming pool, hot tub, cold plunge and sauna were all available. Room is cozy and bathroom is quite fancy and clean. Self-serve laundry would be a plus but unfortunately not available. Overall a very pleasant stay. "

"All staffs are excellent and helpful from front counter to cleaning etc. Breakfast is not my type of diet and skipped for my remaining days. Condition of hotel is quite dated. WiFi is at crawling speed. However, I can’t expect more for its location and pricing. Overall it is not as bad."

"Room was basic but clean and spotless. Housekeeping did a phenomenal job cleaning for my multi day stay. I think the value his great not much but the bed was comfortable, housekeeping was great. The price point was great. One thing thing that was disappointing is there was no parking available onsite which was stated on the Expedia hotel details."
