It’s located inside the park and is next to some hiking trails. The dinner and breakfast is good. It has shuttle bus to take you to visitor centre and train station. Hotel staffs are very nice and professional.

A convenient place to stay if you want to access the walks at Alishan. The hotel offers a shuttle bus service and half board (breakfast and dinner) is included.

The hotel is somewhat deep in the park itself. This is slightly annoying for those with luggage, as you might need to find and wait for the shuttle bus, but it means that it's actually very close to chaoping station, which is where most people begin their hike, and you can always take the train to chaoping station. The property itself is well maintained and clean, and the room are spacious and well equipped. There is a very nice observation deck on the 8th floor with one of the best views of the Alishan sunset (many of the other observation points can be blocked by trees during spring/summer). And as a bonus, you don't have to trek back to your hotel in the dark.

Alishan Hotel is a beautiful hotel in the magical forest of Alishan. We enjoyed our stay at the property and the magnificent trees surrounding us. The staff was warm and helpful and were eager to ensure we had a comfortable stay. Spacious rooms, comfortable beds, and well maintained facilities with a convenient location to the forest paths in the park made this an unforgettable trip for us.

For the price, we expect higher standards. I have never seen a lighted exit sign above the door inside the room! This kept the otherwise nicely dark room lighted and thus affected our sleep. The mattress was way too hard for my liking. Still using old fashioned key. The historical building rooms need some modernization and not worth the price.

Spent $1000 for a night with my parents and husband, stayed here for 1 night. This property is over priced !! The buffet use cheap ingredients so I am not impressed by their breakfast and dinner buffet. I am very disappointed.

Hotel staffs very professional in providing assistance! Also very courteous even during holiday time December! Luggage was taken and secured promptly upon arrival. Check in was easy and fast! Room may be consider old specifically bathroom, no rainstorm head. It was a a large shower, handheld shower head was a mismatch. Bathtub is hard to climb in, even for young people. Amenities was a plus, there was even extra comforter and pillow in the large closets. Mattress was good for one night stay. Firm. No back pain if I remember. No easy parking during December. Also requires shuttle bus to take to hotel. Keep in mind # of luggages you want to bring It's a hiking and scenery area so expect a lot of walking. Shuttle bus available to different points. Buffet was average like most Taiwan hotels. Enjoyed the stay!

The hotel is very near to all the main attractions in Alishan. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Buffet dinner offers a variety of delicious choices. The old wing of the hotel is under renovation, otherwise it’s another nice sight-seeing spot with history.

Will be difficult to justify the price when just considering the room. What you are really paying for is a food location next to some nice walking trails, free shuttle bus every 30 mins and for sunrise train, buffet dinner and breakfast, and a viewing deck for sunset. Property is on the older side, but the linens and toiletries were quite nice. Was overall clean except under the beds. Food was passable, but note there are limited other options anyway.

Room needs better soundproofing
Overpriced rooms with little to no soundproofing. You wouldn't want to pay 700 bucks a night for such minimal furnishing. Even more important is that sleep is important to catch the sunrise but with such non-existent sound proofing, nobody can get any rest Buffet dinner/breakfast is fantastic though.

Not worth $700 a night
For $700 a night you would expect a well furnished room. Here are a list of missing features that makes this hotel not worth your wallet - soundproofing is horrible. It’s literally non existent and one can hear what is being conversed next door. This is critical as people come here to wake up at 3am to catch the sunrise and it requires a good night sleep. - there are no doors between the washroom and the bedroom for the 4 pax suite.
