Buffet Breakfast Bliss

“The buffet breakfast at Illume Taipei was beyond appetizing and always bustling with a crowd. Although I didn't get a chance to dine for lunch or dinner due to timing, I absolutely loved the breakfast offerings that catered to every palate, including freshly made dishes that kept us energized for our adventures.” view full review

The King-sized bed alongside a single bed, a four-seater dining table, and a well-maintained toilet with both a bathtub and shower area made our stay very comfortable. I really appreciated the cleanliness as the room service consistently vacuumed the carpets, ensuring a dust-free environment.” view full review

My stay at Illume Taipei was a mixed bag. The location was fantastic, central and near a metro station, but the hotel felt quite dated. The service was warm and helpful, which made the experience a bit better, yet the room had several maintenance issues that detracted from my overall comfort.

Rooms

6.0

The room I stayed in was clean and spacious, but it was quite outdated. I experienced slow sink drainage and some worn-out towels. The bathroom had a troublesome shower curtain that never quite covered the tub. Overall, it felt like it needed a refresh.

Service

8.0

The concierge and staff were incredibly friendly and learned my name during my stay. They were helpful in providing directions and tips about local attractions, which I appreciated. However, I felt the housekeeping staff was overworked, as my room wasn't serviced until late in the afternoon on some days.

Location

9.0

The hotel is in a prime location right in ZhongShan, close to shops, restaurants, and the metro. This made getting around Taipei super convenient for me, which was one of the highlights of my stay.

Dining

7.0

The breakfast buffet had a reasonable variety and the quality was decent, though I found some of the options a bit overpriced. The dining area was spacious enough, and the coffee was nice, but it could definitely use more international options.

Facilities

5.0

The hotel offers a gym and a dining area, but both felt a bit outdated. The gym was crowded with athletes and not very accessible for regular guests. The overall maintenance of the facilities seemed lacking, as there were reports of minor issues.

I stayed at Illume Taipei for a few nights, and while the location was fantastic, being close to two MRT stations and the Taipei Arena, I found the hotel had some notable issues. The service from the staff was friendly and quick (which was appreciated), but my room felt a bit worn down and certainly needed maintenance. The breakfast buffet was underwhelming for the price, leading me to seek out alternatives nearby.

The workout room and pool were available but seemed outdated and in need of renovation. They weren't very appealing during my visit.

My stay at Illume Taipei was quite enjoyable! The location near the Taipei Arena and various eateries made it very convenient for me. However, the breakfast options could have been better considering the price. Overall, the hotel met my needs effectively! 😊

Rooms

I had a spacious room with a king bed and a twin bed that was well-lit and quiet. There was a decent amount of outlets for my electronics. I appreciated the hot water kettle and glass carafes in the room, though I did notice a lack of drawer space.
