Miaoli County hotels & places to stay

I have been staying this hotel whenever I passed by Miaoli, it is next to a Mega shopping Mall which you can get nearly all stuffs from clothes to daily amenities; there is also a huge supermarket not far away from it, around 5 minutes walk, it has 3 stories like Tesco, I can spend whole day just shopping! The Hotel room is huge and nicely decorated, and the staffs are overall very attentive.

Only transport from Miaoli HSR is via cab at NT$1,000 takes about an hour. Buffet dinner not really worth NT$880/pax. First restaurant across the bridge is a better alternative with set meal at NT$400/pax. Each room has Jacuzzi with a nice view. But still not used to having the WC in the middle of the room without doors. Nice outdoor spa with complimentary pomelo tea. Day trip to other parts of Miaoli cost about NT$1,600/pax can be booked in hotel. Overall it is a good experience to enjoy nice architecture & spa at remote area. Will recommend maximum 3 days, nothing much to do at night.

Really like this hotel, the staff are very friendly from front desk, restaurant staff and even the housekeeper. It is not a big hotel just 15 to 16 rooms thus it is not noisy but very personal touch. The room is very clean and spacious, all details are well taken care. The restaurant served good foods, like the hand made bread, really fresh. German pig knuckles must try and the seafood hotspot is nice too. The environment is really quiet and peaceful. Thanks Ms Liu the front desk manager who have given us many good recommendations to eat and to visit. Strongly recommended to stay here for those travelling to miaoli.

Had booked a deluxe family room and expected good view only to find that the deluxe family room is situated on the 2nd level of the main building, totally different from the normal family room with is situated on the ground floor facing the strawberries farm. Was quite disappointed as we had booked this room assuming that it'll come with a living rooms like the pic provided... and since it's more expensive , we have expected better views. The room is made up of 2 levels, with a super king sized bed on each level.... very spacious & Clean The bathroom on the lower level comes with a very spacious SPA bathtub. Bathroom on the top level comes with a very tiny toilet, with no bath area. Breakfast a simple buffet spread.... Kiddo had a great time feeding the fishes, ducks and swans...and picking the strawberries from the farm just beside the accom, not to mention the Choc DIY.. Overall, quite a comfortable stay.... however...will recommend the normal family room over the deluxe for the price.

It's an amazing place with hot springs both inside and outside hotel room - that was the main reason why we chose there. The resort is a bit far - about 45-50 min by taxi (about NT900)/hotel shuttle from the Miaoli station but it's worth the long drive. The resort is surrounded by mountains - well other resorts then mountains. You can really feel the peace and quiet there. Breakfast is complimentary and it's huge (congee with lots of small side dishes, bread, juice and coffee). Dinner is not (about NT500) - a bit pricey for Taiwan but with the many courses, I think it's worth it. The staff is really attentive and helpful. Overall, it's an amazing place.

Hotel is near to some of the popular attractions in Miaoli. Just minutes of walking distance away, you can find a supermarket, eateries, pharmacies etc. Hotel offers good facilities too - washing machine (free!), drying machine, children's indoor playground, some simple ride for the kids @ TWD10/ride! Room is big and clean. Staffs are helpful and friendly. Highly recommended!

Everytime guests leave or arrive, the receptionist will give a deep bow. That sums up the friendly attitude of the people here. They make you feel welcomed. When she saw me walk in the rain, she loaned me a umbrella without being asked. Great service. Drawbacks? My room had a cigarette smell. And the carpet could use a good cleaning. The heater does not seem to work as well. But overall I had a good night's stay here

Stayed for 1 night in quadruple room. The room was large and beds comfortable. Bath and toilet could do with updating. Didn’t like the toilet as it’s one of those that you can’t flush toilet paper down as it clogs easily. The farm was big and we had to walk quite far to get to the barn area (where the main activities take place). You can buy small packets of feed for the goats and ducklings for NT$10 each - lots of fun for the kids. There is a limited supply of milk for the calf feeding activity so be sure to get there early/on time. We had a bad experience with one of the farm staff who was super unfriendly when we took a photo of her feeding the baby goats in a public access area (not sure why?) - she demanded that we deleted the picture and turn off our phone. Do note also that the farm is not well lit at night so best to return to the eating area by dusk otherwise you will have to track back in the dark. Breakfast was forgettable. We had the hot pot for dinner which was tasty, but it seemed the place was short-staffed as there was only one restaurant staff doubling up as waiter, cashier and cleaning up the dishes. I left the with feeling that the farm staff are not well trained/don’t particularly enjoy their jobs nor have a service oriented attitude - and that shows. Overall a mixed experience.

it was my family's first trip to miaoli, hence, when i booked the hotel, i thought as it was in the middle of the county, it would be accessible to the various attractions. it took as an hour upon reaching the county to find the place. one of the reasons why i selected this place was that they have their own hotspring within the hotel itself. it makes it really convenient. it was amazing to awake to nature and have breakfast with such scenery. anyone looking for a relaxing day or two, i'd recommend this place. there's not much to do within the hotel and it's not easily accessible, do not plan your entire stay at this place.

The hotel is located in a fantastic setting, commanding amazing views over the green hills and mountains, which you can enjoy from either the comfort of your room or any of the spa facilities on the premises. We've used both public spa and private rooftop jacuzzi and it was just perfect after a few days of exciting but tiresome exploration of Taiwan. The Chinese set menu dinner in the hotel restaurant was delicious. A very nice gentleman who took our pictures on the rooftop turned out to be the hotel owner, who later was so kind to invite us for a delicious set menu Chinese dinner:-) Our planned taxi option failed, so the next day the hotel arranged a taxi to take us to the Miaoli THSR station A very positive experience and we only wish we had more time to spend there!

Great service ! As we have to depart before the breakfast starts the next day, the owner actually packed us some breakfast to take away. Due to the location inconveniency, owner was gracious enough to offer to and fore free rides to the hotel from the city central thought its just 10min away. Very serene location with fresh air in the morning! very quiet and warm friendly town. Nanzhuang is a true country side from the buzz off the city street. Though the shared toilet was a concern previously but its just shared with another room. so 2 rooms to 1 toilet and 1 kitchen with a hall. But concern traded off with the great service of owner. booking during offpeak thus its a great value for money to us.

We booked 2 rooms (with 1 queen size bed). Room no.203 and 206. Check in on 5 Sept. We stayed one night. Location of the hotel is good near train and bus station and near the night market (Wed, Fri, Sat), staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel is old but rooms were generally clean, hotel provided washing machine at the common area for guests, WiFi signal was good, TV had many channels to watch. However, we believe that room 206 has a notorious case of bed bugs. My mother was bitten severely, with horrendous red spots all over her legs. My father was a bit luckier, perhaps protected by long pants. It was a very uncomfortable night sleeping for my mother and the bug bites certainly has not subsided even days later.

The bed and breakfast was in a very beautiful location in the mountains. The room was large, but you could tell that it was either getting old, or not used very often as it had that dusty smell that comes with older places. The staff were very friendly but were sometimes hard to find. The breakfast was just a simple Chinese congee and was only open for one hour. Not much to choose from and only one pot of coffee was served which was lukewarm. The hotel was about 7 minutes by car from the town of Nanjhuang which had a lot of decent places to eat specializing in Hakka food. I would recommend this place as a stopover but not for a long stay.

We wanted to go to the Flying Cow Ranch, but the accommodations there was already full. This is probably the next closest accommodation to the Ranch. The place was spacious and the staff was friendly. If I had to nit-pick, it would be that the shops are about 10-15min away -- down a slope. So after you buy your stuff, you can get some exercise on the way back to your accom. But hey, the air there is crisp and fresh; the exercise will probably do you some good. lol
