Yusense Hotel

Yusense is special because the original materials which were of exceptional quality have been retained as have the classic hospitality values both in service and accessories. Our room faced away from the road, had a "mountain view" and was quiet. The room felt spacious in an old fashioned kind of way (a little empty and impersonal but on the other hand not artificially and tastelessly over-styled as in boutique hotels these days). The bathroom was luxurious with hardwood tiles and mother-of-pearl mosaic. The accessories were good quality and we especially loved the perfumed glycerin soap. The breakfast was real and very delicious, not a buffet. We had each our rendering of Eggs Benedict, one with ham and the other with smoked salmon. Even the cappuccino was handmade and excellent. The location for this particular visit was perfect and we walked over to the National Palace Museum (600m) in a break in our schedule. Always amazing! The front desk personnel and dining room staff were both professional and very friendly. Their attitude and smiles were genuine, not put on for the job. Last but not least, the hotel was decorated with original art pieces including a very large, Chinese Chi inspired tapestry by an American artist hanging in the high-ceilinged 3rd floor lobby space. This must once have been a very fancy hotel for foreign guests coming to visit the Palace Museum! What more can one ask for?

Actually, though it was a good double bed, especially my wife found it too hard - as is the culture here in Taiwan. It would be nice with a bidet toilet seat - that was missing. For some the style of this hotel maybe a little old fashioned, but that's exactly what gives Yusense it's niche and quality, through and through.

Everything was perfect. Lovely, spacious room with comfortable bed & pillows, with complimentary minibar, good bathroom amenities, excellent housekeeping. Front desk staff & at breakfast were attentive and mindful. The hotel is away from the busy city but close enough to the night markets. You can walk to the National Palace Museum. Bus stops are a short walk.

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

Loved the entire ambience of the place! It was clean, peaceful, and the staff were all generally very helpful. We stayed as a group of 10 and it was a pleasant experience to stay with elderly as well. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Best part of the stay was the complimentary breakfast at the restaurant area, you could select from an entire menu and it was healthy and tastefully prepared.

Location of the hotel wasnt great in Taipei, not convenient to move around via public transport unless you had a car.

Staff is very friendly. Room is clean and comfortable. In quiet neighborhoods.

Breakfast is a bit weird to my tasting. Bathroom showerhead doesn’t function as expected - water would splash in all direction, and if water splashed outside the tub, the water would flow across the floor making the entire floor wet. The AC in the room a bit difficult to understand how to work on adjusting to the right temperature. Also cannot turn off the fan in the bathroom.

A charming and with a flair of its own, close to the National Palace Museum and Shilin Metro. Nice peaks around it. One can also buy tea selected by staff. Wake up in the morning to the calming view of the trea forest. Big and spacious rooms. One can take a great bath at night, instead often usual sad shower. That’s comfort and indulgence.

The surroundings were quiet and the hotel felt luxurious. The staff were very friendly and professional. I also enjoyed that the breakfast was a menu to select from as this made me feel food would not go to waste and I ate what I could finish.

Ground floor where I got off from the taxi is a large, uninviting empty entrance with a signage that says 'check in at level 3'. This may not have been the case before but I feel that the first entry point ought to be more warm and inviting. Other than that I have no other complaints.

A cozy space, near to National Palace Museum and Yangmingshan.

Everything was good, only thing that I didn’t particularly like was the Asian breakfast menu which was slightly greasy. A little disappointing too that the water view room we stayed in did not allow us to visit the scenery outside.

Yusense Hotel is right place to stay if you want to spend a few days away from overbusy Taipei downtown, this hotel is just in 15 min away from 101 by taxi and 25 min away from Shilin MRT by walking. Near by you can find an amazing parks, I strongly recommend to went both of them. During our long honeymoon holidays we've stayed there twice, everything was absolutely good, extremely friendly stuff helped to fix a small issues we faced.

Staff was very helpful. Made takeaway breakfast for our early flight.

The location. It is too far from MRT and city. But is near the National Palace Museum. Nearest transportation was public bus. If you're not a fan of city life, this could be right for you

We chose the hotel for it’s location near the National Palace Museum. The breakfast was very good with several options. The staff at the check in-out desk were awesome!

As a female who has traveled alone often, I was not comfortable with the spring release closure of the room doors. I did not like that the from door didn’t close behind me and I could not easily push it close. I consider this a safety issue.
