The breakfast was absolutely delicious, and I really appreciated that the Nespresso capsules were replenished every day. What I loved most was the wooden flooring in the room and the complimentary shuttle service to both the conference venue and downtown. These features made my stay especially comfortable, and I would definitely choose Amba again on my next visit to Taiwan.
One inconvenience was that the shuttle driver did not speak any English at all. When he asked in Mandarin where the destination was and we were unable to respond, he became visibly upset. On one morning shuttle to the conference venue, the bus did not depart for the same reason until a receptionist came down to help facilitate communication. Additionally, I waited at Taipei 101 at the scheduled shuttle time to return to the hotel, but for all four days the shuttle did not arrive. It seemed that if there were no guests departing from the hotel at that time, the shuttle simply did not operate. This was quite difficult to understand from a guest’s perspective.
Overall, the stay would have been perfect if only shuttle service management and communication had been better handled.

Location was fantastic, connected to the Song Shan train station which is a major hub with both mrt and local trains. Above the train station is a mall. Less than 10mins walk away is the Raohe Night Market.

View was amazing as lobby is on the 17 floor and full wall to ceiling windows allow you to see far and beyond. Mountains and the 101 can also be seen from there. Aesthetics were wonderful. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Theres a room for topping up drinking water, and it is where you can also get laundry done, though the space in that room was super tight. Still cant complain, it is free amenities after all. I believe theres a gym as well...though I didnt have time to check it out.

We had the 101 view King room. Bed was incredibly comfortable. Room was spacious, comes with Nespresso machine and bluetooth speaker to connect your own music.

Only disappointment was that it does not have a bidet like most of the other hotels we had stayed in in Taipei. They gave out free thong slippers which you can take home, but if I had one suggestion, it would be to give umbrellas as it rains or becomes really sunny all the time. 😆 A wonderful stay all in all, ticking all the boxes. Highly recommend.
