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.

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

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.

The setting and view were very nice; however, the bathroom was really outdated.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.

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)

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.

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.

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!

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.

Spacious rooms with breathtaking views. We got upgraded from a twin beds room to a twin kings room. The facility is clean and quiet but only thing is the building are built by wood so therefore very little sound proof! You can hear people talk outside and floor above you moving furniture or walking.. property is surrounded by mountains/ tea plantations so it’s not close to anything. Breakfast was decent and the only choice for dinner was hotpot. You pay extra for it. It was good but if you’re not a fan of it. There’s no other choice. Beside some loud talking guests, I did enjoyed my stay at this property.

The room is big but has some dust and few dead buds on the vanity table and shelf. The toilet paper roll holder is broken and the paper roll is up on the towel rack. Lots of stair and it’s hard to carry with some luggage since you have to go through up and down stairs. The sign is not clear to find the main entrance. No early breakfast prepared but this is a place to go to Alishan to watch sun rise. Not worth the price of the room.
