The hostel is located in the old part of Taipei, where all the traditional markets and ancient part of the city is just a stone away. It might look small from the outside, but I was amazed with how big the hostel is. Equipped with several showers and toilets, huge kitchen and common room. When I checked-in, it was too late for any personnel to be on site. However, they provided a thorough guide of self check-in from entry. No trouble of self check-in.

There's so much that I love about this hostel, I don't even know where to begin! Though it's near one of the farther exits of Taipei Main Station (at the underground mall zone), it's centrally and conveniently located: just a few minutes' walk from an exit with an elevator, and also near the airport MRT. The location is great: lots of shops, cafes, and restaurants nearby, including a 7-11 right next to the building. You can even walk to Dadaocheng in 10-15 minutes. The hostel is beautiful; it's a building with a history. I booked a bed in a dormitory room; the beds were properly partitioned — almost like I was staying in a capsule hotel. Each bed also comes with enough sockets for you to charge your devices, and there are partitioned shelves for your belongings, including a locker for valuables. Luckily, I had quiet roommates, so I was able to get a good night's sleep during my stay. Also, the shared facilities are clean and well-maintained; the common area is so cozy and lovely! On days when I was too tired to travel, it was nice just chilling in the common area and taking in the ambiance, or browsing through the infographic panels (about the building's history, as well as helpful info for first-time Taiwan travelers, like must-see attractions and must-eats). For breakfast, you get vouchers that you can use at four nearby partner restaurants. All serve local cuisine (though one also has Western food like sandwiches, in case Taiwanese food isn't to your liking), so breakfast gives you the opportunity to try Taiwan's delicious food! As a fan of Taiwanese food, especially breakfast food like shaobing and danbing, I was very happy to have tried a different partner restaurant for breakfast each day. The staff are very friendly and helpful; I appreciated all their help. I got so much value for money for my stay, and I genuinely enjoyed just spending time at Meander 1948.

All hostels in Taipei

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Easy to reach from the airport, within 3 minutes walking from Taipei Main station. Very very clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were modern too. The bunk beds were surprisingly spacious! I could fit my suitcase there (only standing up though) but there was some separate storage space for suitcases as well. Friendly and helpful staff, had a lovely time there and the hostel kept me safe during earthquakes..! :)

Super comfy beds, own curtain for your bunk bed for some extra privacy, the strongest/ best showers I have experienced on my travels ❤️and great location when exploring Taipei! Thank you team Meander for a wonderful stay ! I will be back !

    This is my wife's review: I loved everything. A great location very close to the metro station and a bike-sharing station too. The facilities offer everything you need for a good and safe stay (in a hostel). The beds were so comfortable and everything was working just fine. The shared bathroom was super clean. It really exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it, especially for a woman/girl traveling by herself.
