Luxury Classical Style
 

%? Taipei Marriott Hotel (Taipei)
Standing majestically along the Dazhi riverside, its two domes create beautifully elegant curves against the skyline. Upon entering the hotel, you’re immediately drawn to its neoclassical design. Bold sixteen-meter-high Roman columns dominate the space, complemented by giant crystal chandeliers and motifs of the prosperous peony flower, showcasing an exquisite fusion of Eastern and Western elegance.

Local Literary & Artistic Style: Cheng Yi Cultural Tourism
 
%? Tamsui Chill (Taipei)
Tamsui Chill is like a small modern art center, with reception areas and various floors adorned with a variety of installations and cultural creative artworks. Each of the 12 floors has a different theme, making the whole space feel like a large photography studio that will definitely satisfy any traveler's passion for aesthetics.

%? Taichung Birdy Days (Taichung)
Using the flight of birds as a metaphor for travel, and the hotel as the nesting place where birds rest, “Let our days be bird-like, and our travels slow and leisurely” is the philosophy of Taichung Birdy Days. Aside from the building itself being an artistic highlight, the hotel pioneered the “Ask the Passerby” system and publishes the “Ask the Passerby Express,” providing guests with the latest information on Taichung’s local culture, food, drinks, and entertainment.

%? Taichung Tea Story (Chiayi)
“In the homeland of tea, we nurture a tea-themed hotel to offer travelers a carefree paradise.” Taiwan’s first “tea-themed” hotel was thus born. Its exterior resembles white blocks stacked together, and its extremely photogenic rooftop infinity pool is hugely popular among guests, offering easy views of the cityscape. It attracts many visitors as a pilgrimage site, while the evening poolside bar adds a serene and romantic touch to the vacation atmosphere.
