Shangri-La Far Eastern, Taipei

Shangri-la never disappointed us! It is built with class and solid facilities. You can identify from everything surrounding you. We had the Premier King room with a view of the 101 and it never gets old. The walk-in closet hosts our 3 giant luggages and our whole wardrobe. There are wall outlets everywhere other than the spots right next to the bed. The king size bed is extra large and super comfortable (though my husband feels it is slightly hard). I constantly return to the bed for some coziness after buffet breakfast. Talking about buffet breakfast, it is bountiful. From bread section (croissants, french bread, egg custards, pancakes, baguettes...), freshly squeezed juices (bitter melon+cucumber, dragon fruit, carrot, watermelon, tomato, orange...), salad bar (smoked salmon, veggies, cold dishes...), Indian food, noodle soup, pan fried dumplings, congee bar...etc. We take our time and enjoy an-hour-and-half long breakfast everyday there. Breakfast serves 6-10 am weekday, 6-10:30 am weekend and holiday. The room services are very responsive to our different daily requests. Whether it is request of specific cleaning time, replenish water & coffee pods... I can go on and on about the comfort of the facilities and the team work at Shangri-la. It truly made us feel at home. We can't wait to come back for our next vacation.

We had an upper floor room, the view was spectacular. The location was very good. Shopping, the mall is next door, with a nice food Court. There are local shops and restaurants within walking distance. We had dinner in the Chinese restaurant, the food was very good. We didn't know the Peking Duck was their specialty. Wish we would have known. The breakfast is fantastic do many choices. The room was spacious the bathroom was big the shower was wonderful. The bath tub was very nice. Absolutely loved the bidet. The staff were outstanding, friendly, helpful, truly 5+ stars. I highly recommend.

The room is spacious, well furnished with armchairs, a bay window seat with a beautiful view to the city, and Taipei 101! Two big windows overlooking the city with morning sunlight streaming in, how fantastic is that! The beds are big and comfortable - good night sleep! Hotel staff in general are good, some are better than others! A big shout out is reserved tor Sarah, who was on lifeguard duty on our last night at the rooftop pool. She went above and beyond to make my family feel special ! Thanks!

The staff is very sensitive to our needs and takes initiative to resolved our concerns. The Kohler bidet is very useful. The buffet spread is great. But the Japanese section could provide more food. The pastries are good. Fruits very fresh. Hi tea and Cocktail at Horizon room level 36 is relaxing and has a great view of Taipei 101.
