Comfortable stay and will return.
Check in was very smooth by the friendly staff. Room was very clean and comfortable except for shower room which was moldy. Breakfast was good spread but lack of food warmer for buffet line thus cooled food was cold. Beef soup noodles from live station was good.

Located at the city centre. Walking across is the Taitung Railway Art Village and the Fantasy Tiehua. A short walk from the hotel is the Taitung night market. Lots of food choices and shopping. A great spot for an excellent stay. Oh, breakfast was great too!

The Gaya was a gorgeous hotel, from the lobby to our room. Very helpful and friendly concierge. Amazing view from the rooftop. Conveniently located for a morning stroll at Liyushan or to the Railway Art Village. Super comfortable bed and bedding, and overall a great place to spend time.

Stayed 2 nights at this property. Shower head broke and almost hit my foot. Not enough towel provided - there was not even a hand towel available, just a bath and a small towel. Only one treadmill at the gym which was broken. You can tell the hotel had no intention of fixing it as it had already gathered a layer of dust. For Taiwanese standard, the food at breakfast was bad. Service overall was mediocre. Given the room rate, it is honestly substandard. Not worth the money paid for. Extremely disappointed!

The Hotel is relatively new, and its services are customrr oriented, even for breakfast services. But its TV is based on MOD Program, which does NOT have CNN.

New posh business hotel with little luxuries
Posh looking hotel at a good price, with all the usual luxuries thrown in. Toiletries are L'occitane! Staff are very well trained and polite, and even gave us some pointers on local places to eat. The rooftop swimming pool has an excellent view and looks like a small infinity pool. Breakfast spread is also excellent. There is free shuttle to the train station and the hotel is just 5 minutes walk from the bus station. This new hotel is clearly trying very hard and I would highly recommend it.

The service is very good. We were served the moment we walked in and the front desk staff took her time to explain to us the facilties and even led us to the room! The hotel also offer some drinks and biscuits from 9 to 10pm. Awesome! While I was visiting the swimming pool the next morning, a staff even offered to take photos for us and recommended that we visit some nearby places. Great Service!

New and Comfortable Hotel
The check-in was fast and welcoming. The receptionist personally accompanied the guest to their room and introduced the hotel's design concept along the way. The deluxe double room that we stayed in was comfortable and functional. The hotel is near to a couple of mini attraction such as Liyushan Park at the back of the hotel and Railway Art Village. Both attractions can be covered in less than one hour each. The hotel also provide 2 hours free bus tour to several nearby local attractions. Overall, it's a comfortable stay for our stopover en-route to Kaoshiung.
