ILLUME TAIPEI
I stayed at ILLUME TAIPEI during my trip to Taipei, and overall I had a very comfortable and enjoyable experience.
What impressed me first was the size of the room.
It felt much more spacious than a typical city business hotel. There was plenty of room around the bed, along with a table and seating area near the window, which made the room comfortable not only for sleeping but also for relaxing after a long day outside.
The warm wood tones and soft lighting gave the room a calm and welcoming atmosphere.
One of my favorite parts of the stay was the city view from the higher floor.
Opening the curtains in the morning and seeing Taipei spread out below was a wonderful way to start the day. The wide windows made the room feel even more open and gave me a great view of the surrounding cityscape.
The bathroom was also spacious and well designed.
The dark marble-style interior gave it an elegant feel, and the shower area, sink, illuminated mirror, and toilet area were all clean and thoughtfully arranged. There was also plenty of storage space near the entrance, which is especially convenient when staying for several nights.
Another highlight for me was the fitness center.
I have visited hotels where the “gym” means two treadmills and a lonely exercise bike in the corner, but this was completely different.
The fitness area was surprisingly large, with cardio equipment, weight-training machines, benches, dumbbells, and plenty of space to exercise.
If you like keeping up with your workouts while traveling, this is definitely a big advantage.
Of course, when a hotel gym is this well equipped, it becomes much harder to use the classic vacation excuse:
“I would exercise, but the hotel gym isn't very good.” 😄
The hotel’s public areas were also spacious, modern, and well maintained.
I also enjoyed the buffet restaurant, which offered a very wide variety of food.
There were salad and vegetable stations, hot dishes, meat, Asian dishes, noodles, fried items, desserts, fruit, and many other choices. The buffet area itself was large, and walking around to see everything available was almost part of the experience.
There were enough options that both international travelers and guests looking for familiar Asian flavors should be able to find something they enjoy.
The only dangerous part of a buffet like this is that you begin with a very responsible plan:
“I'll just eat a little.”
Ten minutes later, your plate has apparently made completely different plans. 😄
Overall, I found ILLUME TAIPEI to be a very well-balanced hotel.
The spacious room, comfortable bed, clean and modern bathroom, impressive city views, excellent fitness facilities, and large buffet made the stay very comfortable.
It is the kind of hotel that works well not only for sightseeing but also for business trips or longer stays in Taipei.
I would definitely consider staying at ILLUME TAIPEI again on my next visit to Taipei.

If you're a vacation gym-goer, this place rules. Attached to an actual gym instead of a meager fitness center. Great facilities overall.

Illume Taipei is a classic hotel conveniently located near Taipei Arena, with easy access to the metro station. The location is excellent, with a shopping mall right next door, as well as IKEA and Nitori located within the same complex, making it very convenient for both shopping and dining. There is also a 7-Eleven located inside the hotel, which is perfect for grabbing snacks, drinks, or other essentials at any time.

The hotel appears to have been recently renovated. The lobby feels modern and stylish, featuring a fresh design complemented by several tasteful art pieces. Despite the building’s traditional exterior, the interior creates a welcoming and contemporary atmosphere.

One of the biggest highlights is the room size. The rooms are exceptionally spacious, which is becoming increasingly rare among hotels in Taiwan. They also come with a private balcony and a bathtub, adding to the overall comfort of the stay.

Considering its prime location, generous room size, and updated facilities, Illume Taipei offers outstanding value for money. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Taipei.

I highly recommend this hotel. The staff members who speak Korean were very helpful, and it is a great place to stay for families. It was very convenient to have a convenience store on the 1st floor. I also loved the gym on the 1st floor; it is spacious and has great, high-quality equipment.
