GRAND HOTEL TAIPEI

RELAXING GETAWAY

Complete with secret passages, centuries-old stone lions and a mystery garden, the Grand Hotel remains of Taiwan’s most illustrious hotels.

Dating back to the 1950s, this grandiose hotel is a sight to behold with its striking vermillion columns, gilded tiles and exquisite rooftop. Long before construction began on Taipei 101, the 14-floor Grand Hotel was Taiwan’s tallest building. In the 60’s it was regarded as one of the finest hotels in the world; its threshold crossed by royalty and world leaders alike. The hotel even installed a secret tunnel so that foreign dignitaries could escape in the event of an attack or natural disaster.

TAIWAN

QUIET OASIS

Although it has 500 guestrooms, the Grand Hotel still manages to feel like a quiet oasis in the heart of the city, just 15 minutes from Shilin Night Market. Its four restaurants serve classical Chinese cuisine as well as western and Japanese delicacies, all in elegant dining rooms or grand banquet hall settings. With its plum blossom-shaped caisson ceiling, the impressive lobby is a popular spot for afternoon tea.
