6 hotels · Updated February 2026

The Okura Prestige Taipei — Zhongshan
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.4 Superb

Mandarin Oriental Taipei — Zhongshan
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.6 Exceptional

The Mandarin Oriental's 2014 Taipei flagship occupies a striking 25-storey tower designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox — its Bencotto Italian restaurant and Ya Ge Cantonese restaurant share two Michelin stars, the spa is the city's finest, and the design throughout is impeccably considered.

Eslite Hotel — Xinyi
$$$ Upscale
★ 9.0 Superb

Conceived by the brilliant minds behind Taiwan's legendary Eslite bookshop brand, this Xinyi hotel is a love letter to art, design, and literature — every room is an installation, the library is open 24 hours, and it occupies the most philosophically interesting position in Taiwanese hotel culture.

W Taipei — Xinyi
$$$$ Ultra-luxury
★ 9.1 Superb

W Taipei's 31-floor tower dominates the Xinyi skyline in suitably extravagant fashion — the WOOBAR rooftop bar is a Taipei institution, the WET pool deck is spectacular at sunset, and the rooms bring W's signature maximalist aesthetic to one of Asia's most dynamic city panoramas.

amba Taipei Songshan — Songshan
$$ Mid-range
★ 8.9 Excellent

amba Songshan occupies a converted warehouse in the Xinyi-Songshan creative district — its industrial-chic aesthetic, outstanding cocktail bar, excellent breakfast, and walk-everywhere location near Taipei City Hall make it a local favourite at prices that are hard to argue with.

Regent Taipei — Zhongshan

Zhongshan

Regent Taipei

A Zhongshan landmark for three decades, the Regent remains one of Taipei's most beloved luxury addresses — Crystal Club afternoon tea is an institution, the shopping arcade below is one of the city's finest, and the service culture is warm in a way that the newer international flagships haven't yet matched.
