Very nice. Not for sunrise in hotel
One night. Nice mountain hotel. But nearly 1h drive to Alishan Township. Balcony is facing sunset and not sunrise. You have to drive a bit. Not recommended to walk before sunrise.

The only downside to this hotel is the number of stairs required to access anything. Particularly bad when checking out and carrying your bags up.

I can see the sunset from the patio of your room. The room was clean and warm, however the bathroom was a little old. Breakfast was delicious, and service was wonderful. Would definitely recommend.

The rooms are a super pleasant surprise! Very modern, new, clean, yet retains a lot of the local charm. Plus, jaw dropping view and absolute tranquility. Amazing experience. We can’t wait to come back

The setting and view were very nice; however, the bathroom was really outdated. The breakfast had a good selection, but the taste was average. The sunrise and trail were pretty, given the overall value, I would not stay there again.

This is a really amazing gem of a place on the side of the mountain. Surrounded by a working coffee and tea farm and set amongst a trail system that one can walk to really check out the terrain. Spotless rooms overlooking the farm with all the amenities and the really fun hot pot restaurant for dinner.

B&B nestled in the hill country 30 minutes from Alishan National Park/visitor area. We were upgraded to a room with a view and two King’s beds. The staffs are very courteous, helpful, and engaging, make the guests feel at home. The facility is well maintained. No pest intrusion into the cabin. A 20 min walk/hike to see Alishan sunrise.(level is moderate)

Beautiful location, friendly staff. Great views and lovely birds singing. The walls are very thin, we could hear the water running when the neighbors showered or bathed and used their jacuzzi tub - it was very noisy. Our shower/tub could use a curtain as the water sprayed all over the bathroom and the floor got super wet. The breakfast choices were extensive (if you are Chinese) we basically had some toast and peanut butter and jelly. Lots of steep stairs to climb up and down to the parking area, the hotel used a small car to transport our bags down to the bedroom.

Very unique and clean. It serves great breakfast with lot of variety. Hot pot dinner onsite is highly recommended. Beds are soft and very comfy. Because it is in the mountains, occasional bugs and mosquitoes could inevitably sneak in. Overall, a great stay.

Clean and Great View
The biggest downside of the hotel is the many flights of stairs to get down and up to your room. A plus is that there is free parking provided. We first had to drag our heavy suitcases down the outside set of stairs from the car park then all the way up to the room. There are no elevates inside the hotel but there is a luggage service however that is only offered at 10 am.
The workers there do not speak English making it hard to communicate with the first set of workers that greeted us. However, the front desk used a phone translator making it easy to deliver a message to us. It was a fairly clean room but if you look closely at the corners of the bathroom, it looks like the seals are older and the curtains have some stains.
Overall, it's a lovely view that overlooks their tea farm and the beautiful alishan mountain range.

This is a beautiful tea growing area, with incredible views out of our room. Despite a language barrier, the staff was very helpful in making us feel welcome. They helped set us up with hikes, the bus to Alishan (including giving us a ride to and from the bus stop), and arranging a car service to take us to our next destination. We can't recommend staying here enough, including for any foreign visitors concerned about ease of navigation or a language barrier. Thank you again!

Mountain stay
Stayed for 2 nights. Weather was great n chilly. There were lots of bugs which me and my aunt weren’t used to cuz we came from the city. Food is so so only. But I guess the 人情味 from the host as well as the locals made up for it. Had a great time overall. Managed to catch a sunrise from the platform nearby, lots of natural air but rather inaccessible so driving over recommended.
