Hotels near Hobe Fort, New Taipei City

The owners were super nice and very helpful, providing great recommendations for places to see and travel directions. The room itself was very unique, featuring a cute enclosed sunroom on top of a nice balcony, offering a great view of the ocean. The location is very convenient, near bus stops. The owner even helped take our luggage down to the bus station without us even asking! The free breakfast was great and healthy. I would definitely stay here again if I travel to the area and highly recommend it.

Overall, we had a very pleasant stay. Our room was on the 30th floor and had a lovely view. I especially liked the walk-in wardrobe, and having a bathtub was really nice and relaxing. The service was excellent as well. When I was using the self check-in machine, a member of the front desk team immediately came over and offered to help, which I really appreciated. There was also an illy coffee machine in the room, which we enjoyed using for our morning coffee. The only downside was the soundproofing. We could hear loud music from the neighbouring room, as well as the sound of their curtains being opened and closed, so this is one area that could definitely be improved. We didn’t get a chance to use the hotel facilities this time, but I’d love to check out the gym and swimming pool on our next stay.

After coming back from Taiwan, I suddenly realized I hadn’t posted any photos or written a review about the adorable wooden cabin our family stayed in at Jiufen. Everyone in my family loved this place so much that I had to jot everything down now that I finally have some free time. Most people I know usually stay in Taipei longer and just make a day trip to Jiufen without spending the night. As for me—I’ve lived in Hong Kong for quite a while, so compared to Hong Kong, Taipei didn’t leave much of an impression on me in terms of sights or food. The only thing that truly made me want to visit Taiwan was Jiufen — a sparkling little gem between the mountains and the sea 🏮🌿🌊 Jiufen feels like a dreamy fairytale village with its winding narrow alleys, steep stone stairways, and the warm glow of red lanterns everywhere. Walking around felt like stepping into another world, almost like a scene from a manga — especially for anyone who’s watched Spirited Away. ⸻ ⭐🛖 Review of the wooden cabin called Twilight Forest in Jiufen Just a 5-minute walk from the Old town, this wooden cabin brings together the warm glow of wood and the peaceful feeling of retreating into nature. It has a unique A-frame design, and at night, when the lights turn on, the whole place becomes incredibly cozy — the golden light shining through the windows and the plants around it create a “hideaway from the world” kind of vibe. Inside, the space is open, airy, and tastefully decorated in a rustic style. There’s a small terrace with a swing chair hanging straight from the ceiling — sitting there at night, listening to insects and the wind rustling through the leaves, feels genuinely healing 🙃. 🛁🌿 Highlight: The glass-walled bathroom in the garden This is the standout feature of the cabin. The bathtub is large and comfortable, placed right next to a 180° glass wall looking directly into a lush green garden. Natural daylight pours in, making your daytime bath feel like an outdoor spa surrounded by plants. (There’s also a roller blind if you need privacy) Jiufen is a tiny village perched on a mountain, and it doesn’t have many hotels that offer spacious, comfortable accommodations. That’s why I was so happy to find this wooden cabin. Our family had the most wonderful two-night stay here. If I ever return to Taipei, I would definitely book this place again ❤️

Beautiful spacious room to stay, perfect for a group of 4! Love the scenery view, and like that the wet and dry area for the toilet is separated, you even get a long stretch of area for hanging your clothes and packing your luggage. The space was pleasant; however, the service staff did not meet expectations. We made a last-minute decision to check in one day late and inquired if the hotel would permit this. The initial staff member who answered the call declined our request, didn't bother to listen to our explanation well even after we explained that we would still cover the cost for the day we would not be occupying the room (you can tell she was annoyed and just not listening to us). Fortunately, we decided to call again later, and a different staff member agreed to accommodate our request for a delayed check-in.

Stayed at this homestay in Jiufen and had a pleasant experience. The place was clean, well-kept, and comfortable for a short stay. One of the biggest advantages is its location—it’s just a short walk to Jiufen Old Street, making it very convenient to explore the area, especially in the evening. Overall, a good choice if you’re looking for a simple, clean stay with easy access to the main attractions.

They don’t provide tooth paste and tooth brush. And only have 1 pillow and need ro request for 1 more pillow. The single bed is quite small. If you are a bit bigger, it will be too small for you. If you are coming with friends, it may not be super convenient because the toilet and bathroom isn’t connection. But if you are single or couple traveller. It will be perfect.

Overall, it's excellent! Awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome!

Overall, a great experience. The room was very spacious, and the water pressure and temperature in the bathroom were perfectly fine. (Just a heads-up: since the bathroom is open-plan, if the air conditioning is set very high/cold, you might feel a draft.) The toilet and shower are separate, which is convenient for simultaneous use. They provide universal power outlets everywhere, so no need to worry about adapters, and there are plenty of them in every spot and corner. It's very close to both the MRT Yellow Line and the Airport MRT; you just need to cross one street after exiting the station. However, it can get a bit noisy when the MRT passes by, which might be something to consider if you're a light sleeper.

This hotel is really great, I love it. I've been staying here for 10 days and I haven't found anything bad about it. It's excellent, I'll definitely come back next time. The staff's service attitude is also very good, and it's very clean and hygienic. The toilet doesn't smell, and the bathroom is also spacious, clean, and trendy. The bathtub is very new with no rust spots.

The reception staff was very friendly. I didn't have dinner there. The equipment was a bit old. Breakfast was available the next day, but it was simple. There was nothing special to order. I had thick slices, boiled eggs, and tomatoes that day. The air was pretty good.
