My greatest impression is the politeness and the friendliness of the staff.

The location is very central, right next to the train station and close to the National Cheng Kung University.

The furnishing is quite old and tired.

Part of the public area can use a new paint.

The complimentary breakfast is OK and basic.

Overall, I feel the hardware is disappointing, but the staff performed above my expectation.

Make a last min booking with the travel agent over at Tainan. Paid 4200NT for their deluxe twins room with 4 breakfast.
We have 3 adult and 2kids, age 6 and 2. The bed is just nice for us. But they only give 2 towel so you have to call them to give you extra towel. They can only give you up to 4 towel/room.

The hotel looks not nice from the website but actually they are not bad. The room is clean and he staffs are helpful too.

The hotel is right across the street from the Tainan railway station. Walking distance to the shopping mall like Shing-Kuang Mitsukoshi , Focus Department Stores and Min-Zu Shopping Center.

This hotel was booked for me by my hosts at the university. I had just stayed at the Landis Taipei Hotel, and I liked the Landis much better.

I don't have any major complaint about the room - it was perfectly clean and well furnished. The bed was quite hard however. Be warned that there are absolutely no three prong electrical outlets available - the staff will loan you an adaptor which eliminates the grounding - not sure how safe this is.

The staff was very kind and helpful on all occasions.

I did not enjoy the restaurant. They play continuous tinkling music (like a mechanical child's music box) which becomes very annoying after some time. I also found the food less than appealing. Maybe it is just my North American reservations, but I don't really like being faced with a large hot dish of steaming fish stew, including heads, early in the morning. At dinner I ordered the steamed clams. They were perfectly plain, but so salty I could hardly eat them - I think they must have been boiled in very salty water.

Based on my experience of the Landis hotel (in Taipei, not in Tainan), I'd stay in the Landis next time.

I stayed at the Tainan Hotel in May 2007. Overall, I found the staff to be extremely friendly and professional. The buffet was OK, but not great.

My biggest complaint is that I asked for a very quiet room, and I was given a room that is just 2 floors above their open area karaoke center. For 2 nights, I had to listen to yelling, shouting, and off-key singing at loud volume. I made a complaint and the staff was more than willing to find me another room. However, I was really disappointed that they would put me in this room to begin with.

Also, my hotel room was disappointing: small, with a small TV and not very new furniture.

I have stayed in hotels in Tainan several times before, and there are other hotels with newer, larger rooms that are available at cheaper prices. Tainan Hotel is not the worst, but there are better values in Tainan.
