Honestly my favorite hostel I’ve ever stayed in (after staying in many different hostels in 8 different countries)!! The free breakfast they provide is a homemade Taiwanese omelet that is either corn, pork, ham, or tuna flavored with a side of chocolate or peanut butter toast and it tastes amazing!! Truly motivated me to get out of bed early every morning. Super friendly staff, very clean, central location super close to the Taipei main station, comfortable and spacious sleeping areas, and lots of amenities

The place was amazing, especially good fit for longer stay - huge communal area with bean bags to sit on, great breakfast with local dishes and fruits, whole kitchen available for common use, daily events organized by hostel (movie nights, daytrips, etc.) dorm beds in sleeping pod formula with big lockers that fit my whole 50l bag. Lockers included hangers too. Everything perfectly clean, very helpful, pleasant staff, a separate room to store luggage. Central location, very close to main train station. For people in single rooms, this was equivalent of a good quality hotel, for dorms it was hostel formula, but one of the fancier ones.

ALL. I can’t believe staying in a hostel can be so comfortable. Spotless clean, spacious bathroom, bed, and common area. Location is near to Taipei Main Station. Incredible staff, they all are so friendly and helpful. After check out, I put my luggage there and when I collected it they allowed me to take shower as I was so sweaty and will continue with a long flight. Thanks for being so considerate! This place is also very safe, everything has to use access card. I dropped my rain cover and I asked them and they helped check in the cctv to find out about this. They also accommodated me for lower bed, but their upper bed can be easily accessed by a wide stairs (not ladder), so easy to climb up. Overall, highly recommended hostel!

The decor of this hostel is divine! Like a classy little castle. Love that it’s women/AFAB only. The instructions upon check in were clear and complete. The facilities were extensive, with a powder room with mirrors and hair dryers and toiletries; a little kitchen with a kettle and tea bags; super cozy little cubbies for sleeping. Also the host was responsive before my arrival, answering questions I had about public transportation in a timely manner.

    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..! :)

    Best hostel I've ever been to. Incredibly clean, amazing personel, great location, comfortable beds and good instalations. I absolutely recommend it, plus it's close to a Red Line Metro station, which will take you to Taipei City Centre directly.

    If you are a solo traveler and new to Asia like me Meander Taipei hostel is the place to be, to mingle and meet fellow travelers - the staff is exceptionally nice and goes out of their way to accommodate and make you feel at home far away from home! 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.
