Modern Plaza Hotel

“Shabby hotel with good location.”

We chose this hotel as the next day we needed to take early train to Taitung. The location is good near to train station. The hotel needs renovation, it is too shabby. The room is dusty and the floor too.

“A tired old hotel with nonexistent non-smoking room yet great hospitality”

My reviews are reflecting a different perspective now a days. My husband is now in a wheelchair and walks only a few steps with a walker. We need a lot of care and we became a lot more demanding guests. With this Modern Plaza hotel, our demands were a lot. We needed to check in early, I mean, reall… Mais

My reviews are reflecting a different perspective now a days. My husband is now in a wheelchair and walks only a few steps with a walker. We need a lot of care and we became a lot more demanding guests. With this Modern Plaza hotel, our demands were a lot. We needed to check in early, I mean, really early: 10:45 AM. We needed a room very close to the elevator. No problems with any of these. Great hospitality. Rosa at the front desk was fantastic and so was everyone else. Our room was HUGE. Once upon a time, about 30 years ago,this hotel was modern. Now it is a tired, old hotel with a very good price to quality ratio. Sunday's buffet breakfast was Chinese and reasonably good. Monday morning they sent our breakfast to our room: a breakfast sandwich and a soy/tea drink. For less than $40 per night, who can complain? Our room on 7th floor had a nice view of the city lights. I only have one complaint and without the wonderful hospitality, and my husband's temporary disability, I would have walked out. Our room (and all other rooms in the entire hotel it seems) was horribly smoky. The disgusting smell of the old cigarettes and the smell of smoke from the air vent any time any idiot who smokes started getting to me after one day. We left three hours before our train time just to get out of this. We kept the windows open and kept the fan on but it did not help. Wifi worked, second day there was no real hot water, just luke warm. Bathroom was huge though with a nice Chinese glass painting on the door. I would have loved to give them a better score but the memory of the smoke is preventing me from doing so. It is located diagonally across the street from the train station (NOT the High Speed Station).
