PANORAMIC VIEWS
Stay at this chic, art-filled hotel and wake to panoramic views over Kaohsiung Harbour.
The Grand Hi-Lai occupies a striking neoclassical building in Kaohsiung’s bustling business district. At 186 metres, it stands head and shoulders above neighbouring rooftops, and enjoys some fantastic, far-reaching views across Kaohsiung City. Add to the mix a stunning neoclassical-inspired outdoor pool, a squash court, fitness centre and wonderful sauna facilities, and you’ll find the Grand Hi-Lai the perfect retreat after a busy day of exploring Kaohsiung.
ASIAN CUISINE
Featuring city or harbour views, the refined rooms are all inviting with their soft furnishings and warm neutral tones. For extra indulgence, you can opt for a deluxe suite which boasts two marbled bathrooms and a spacious sitting area, as well as access to the Executive Lounge. With 13 restaurants under its roof, you won’t have to leave the Grand Hi-Lai to enjoy delectable Taiwanese, Cantonese and Japanese cuisine – though the Liuhe Night Market is within walking distance.

From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.
