Taichung Inns

The hotel is right next to Taichung train station and Tarako mall which both have food court with many food options. There are buses around the station can take you anywhere around Taichung including Sun Moon lake. The buffet breakfast was good with mainly Chinese/********* food options. We stayed in a family room which was just big enough and had space to be able to open our suitcases. The staff were very polite.

I was allocated upper bunk beside Aircon. The air ventilation in the bunk is poor. It is stuffy and hot because accommodate many people inside the dorm. It was difficult to climb to upper bunk. There was smell inside toilet. One of the hair blower is not working.

The service was excellent!! Left my jacket accidentally during check-out and I was already on my way to Taipei. Love their efficiency and they heard about my situation and was kind enough to mail it to my hotel stay in Taipei 💕

Would like to highlight an issue we encountered with regards to our deposit and certain charges that were made to us but which we had not incurred. When we were checking out, we asked to have a look at our statement of charges as we understood that any additional charges would be offset by the deposit placed with the hotel. We had dinner at ”The Prime -Grill and Lounge” on one of the nights and just wanted to check if the charges were right. The statement showed 3 separate bills that were not incurred by us and were all purchases of alcohol, which we found strange. When we brought this up with the front desk, the staff did not seem surprised at all with the error or sought to verify the same anywhere nor were we given any apology for the mistake. It was as though she already knew that those 3 charges were unanauthorised transactions and said that the hotel would rectify the issue with the bank in respect of our deposit. The front desk was also very adamant to not let us speak to her manager about the issue. We just wanted to highlight the above because we would usually just trust the hotel to refund the right amount of deposit without checking, especially when using credit card to pay the same. But it may be worth checking when it comes to this hotel as based on the reaction which we got from the front desk, it seems that such mistakes whether intentional or not have happened before. We also hope that the hotel would do some sort of investigation into how issues like this could happen.

In overall, my first stay in Tempus with a pleasant experience. Located in downtown so pretty convenient to department stores nearby. Bathroom seems clean and well maintained despite its age and history(30yrs). We had a goop sleep last night :)

This time I booked a twin room. It’s pretty good that children can stay for free. There are many facilities, but I only used the sauna. It was very clean and there were not many people. I will stay again if I have the opportunity next time.

Most of the staffs are friendly and so helpful. Except for one female receptionist, I found her a bit rude and not helping at all. Due to the typhoon on 27 July, I was thinking to extend my room, she just rudely said that my room already booked so unable to extend n she didn't even trying to give more assistance. When I asked if there's other available twin room. She continued rudely said that they have n I need to check out at 11am and checkin again at 3pm. this type of receptionist has no people service attitude. She not suitable to be a receptionist. The room without window is clean but quite smelly, not sure what smell is that. First time encounter something like this. Even when stayed in 2 different hotels without window back in Taipei the room was fine.

It's about a 5 minute walk from the station, and opposite Miyahara Ice Cream. Good location with good facilities like a gym and laundry within the hotel. Room is sizeable and good, but some improvements could still be done for the hotel such as better charging ports (the ones beside bed are fixed to a certain USB type) as well as a cabinet to hang clothing and towels. Overall, highly recommended if you are looking for a stay in Taichung.

Clean, good room looks new, easy to get the night market by walking not too far from train station

One of my favourite hotel!! Breakfast is very nice with a lot of options to choose. Love that there is TV in the toilet. The room is spacious for 4 adults. The downside is that the hotel is in the middle of the road. So it is a bit hard to cross the road if there is a lot of car driving pass.
