Our Picks — Taipei
Zhongshan
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.
Xinyi
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.
Zhongshan
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.
Zhongshan
The Okura brings Tokyo's legendary hospitality tradition to Taipei — meticulous room design, a 57th-floor pool with panoramic views, and Yamazato Japanese restaurant (one Michelin star) combine with characteristically precise Japanese service to create an experience of restrained, exquisite luxury.
Xinyi
The Grand Hyatt has anchored Xinyi's luxury corridor since 1990 and remains one of Taipei's most complete hotel experiences — world-class spa, nine restaurants, a landmark swimming pool, and immediate access to the Taipei 101 entertainment district.
Xinyi
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.
