Chateau de Chine Hotel Kaohsiung

10/10 Excellent

"Nothing to fault here. The lounge in the evening was a nice touch with drinks and snacks. The staff were super helpful and friendly. The location was really good for authentic restaurants and the metro practically next door. I stayed 5 nights and would stay again"
