The room is clean and comfortable. The balcony is a plus for the room, view from balcony is nice, with a little bit of sea view and it's great for chilling with the view. We can hear a little bit of sound from other rooms at night. But it's not a big deal for us.

Excellent room with a view and good breakfast
Hotel is located right at the beautiful Sizihwan, ferry to Cijin is only a few minutes walk away (we could even see Cijin directly from our balcony). Room was huge with 2 king size beds, plenty of walking space even with our 3 luggages left opened. Starbucks right below if you're a fan. Breakfast provided was good, no wonder most of the reviews raved about it. Location isn't the most convenient if you want a place near all the action. It's really quiet at night, which is something we appreciated. Laundry facilities available on site, but catered more for smaller loads.

You need to specify that you want a room with a view of the harbour - there is an extra charge but definitely worth it. Hotel is boutique style, room is neat and breakfast is good. Got a good price for this hotel at trifargo.com before making final booking at Expedia.

Unpleasant Experience
Was upset on the way the hotel handled deposit transacted by credit card. Apparently, they do not how to and unable to void it during check out. A Lot of time wasted waiting for them to find out how and what to do while we are rushing for time.

Comfortable and a great breakfast buffet
This hotel lacks charm or personality but it makes up for it with a comfortable spacious room and a pretty terrific breakfast. My husband and I like to book properties than have more of a local flavour but this hotel is conveniently close to the train station and provided al the comfort we could ask for. The city view was really a view of the rai tracks but much to our pleasure...it was still really quiet.

Good Choice!
We were very happy that we booked the harbor view room at Watermark Hotel. We loved the views so much! The room and hotel were both maintained in very good condition. We enjoyed the continental breakfast and appreciated the short distance it took to the metro station as well as the delicious local foods in the immediate neighborhood.

Good place to stay
This hotel was highly rated so I chose to stay here. I was a bit concern that it was located in a off the beaten path location. But I didn't find it that way at all. If you plan on going out to Cijin Island this is a nice location. It is also close to some interesting local restaurants. If you like to walk there are some good places around to explore.

Small room, short bed
Over all my stay was good, very small balcony. The biggest problem is the bed although queen size but queen short so your feet hang off the bed and I'm only 5'8. The room I had F2, Which is 402 was about 15sqm. Tiny!! Starbucks across the street!!

Good location hotel
Hotel Location very good, staff friendly and helpful, good quality breakfast. What we did not expected is Tatami style (Floor raise up, 3 single mattresses on the floor) which we booked is 3 single beds. Added point to this hotel, we get to enjoy the fireworks at the rooftop.

Cozy Hotel beside Gushan Port
The hotel is also around 10 minutes of walk away from the MRT station so it is relatively easy to go around Kaohsiung from there. The rooms are cozy and clean. I enjoyed the breakfast being served which is a mix of a typical Taiwanese breakfast (i.e. congee with assorted toppings to choose from) and Western staples such as salads and cereals. The hotel staff was kind enough to drop us off at the MRT station even if we did not avail of the transfer services.

Poor
The air conditioner was very noisy. The extra charge for two children wasn't mentioned in the webpages. The building is not suitable for a regular hotel; too little.

Best all around experience
As a frequent traveler, this is one of the best all around hotel experiences I have had. The breakfast is simple yet amazing. The room view was great. The access to ferry for nearby island shopping/beach/scooter rental was excellent. And the PRICE was so low I don't want to spoil it by letting others know that I have found a real GEM. Staff was helpful, spoke a little English. Clean hotel. Would certainly revisit.

Best overall experience.
First time to Taiwan. This hotel location was perfect for safety and for easy access to C-store store, excellent breakfast, access to sight seeing, and a very helpful staff. (They have a shuttle to drive you to subway, etc) I travel heavily, I have never written a review, but I would recommend this hotel to anyone from out of the country. Nearby hotels had 'false advertising' claims, (I physically checked to confirm) but this hotel delivers all they promise and more. A+ in my opinion.

A new small star...
Watermark is a small hotel (<20 rooms) and appears to be very new - rooms and staff. That said, I was welcomed efficiently and warmly and, on checking out, was even offered a lift to the nearest metro station (about 700m!). The room (503 - the higher price option but not by much - probably the best view of the harbour) wasn't the largest I have stayed in but was more than adequate with an excellent shower and very comfortable bed (what else does a hotel room need?). The view from the small balcony is straight down the harbour and, early morning, it is great to be able to see the ships (find yourself a ship tracker app to see what's happening) and watch the world go by. A good east/west breakfast selection. I will certainly return when I next stay in Kaohsiung - assuming I can get a room!

設備不算新 地毯沙發都有明顯磨損和髒汙 隔音稍嫌不足 隔壁開關門都聽得到 但不影響休息 另外就是浴室的熱水 住了這麼多家飯店 算是來得非常慢的一間 而且一來就變超燙 調水溫要有耐心 確認溫度不再變化才開始洗 但是地理位置非常棒 有景有車位有陽台 離周邊商圈也很近 床很舒服軟硬適中 早餐豐富好吃 很有心在經營 完全蓋過一開始說的那些硬體缺失 很滿意
