What guests think

At amba Taipei Ximending, travellers praise the central location and friendly staff, with many finding rooms clean and spacious; recurring notes include handy free self-service laundry, occasional Wi-Fi or TV issues, dim lighting, and some street or hallway noise.

Most describe easy access to MRT, shopping and food, though car drop-off can be limited in the pedestrian zone and the walk from Ximen Station takes about 5–10 minutes. Service stands out as consistently warm and accommodating, though a few guests mentioned inconsistent breakfast service or unhelpful interactions. Room feedback highlights spacious layouts and separate toilet/shower in many units, but some report small rooms, soft pillows, unusual sink placement, limited views, and AC variability at night. Expect a convenient, lively base with friendly service and generally comfortable rooms.

We love Amba hotels. Nice size rooms, great locations, free laundry, ice machines and friendly staff. This one has a great location and we enjoyed being right in the action. Room was quiet even with the action on the streets below. Metro station is a short walk too. We did everything including day trip to Juifen with the hotel as a base. Very walkable. Super convenient and really welcoming. Highly recommend.

The hotel is right in Ximending district where there are a lot of actions and easy to get to from the airport..the staffs are VERY friendly and helpful..they will try to help you with whatever that you need.. the room is quiet considering where the hotel is located..the room is spacious and gets clean everyday. I enjoyed my short stay there and will return when I go back to Taipei.. Big bonus is free laundry!!!

The overall staying experience was excellent. Friendly and helpful front-desk and staffs. A few minor things that caused confusion and unpleasant experience: 1. The house-keeping sometimes forgot to re-fill the water bottles and shower gels/shampoo. One bathrobe was supplied instead of two on the last day. 2. Laundry: 2 washing machines were working instead of all 3 during my 5-night stay. And the time indicator gave incorrect duration and caused the delay of emptying the washing machine for the next guest. The other guest had removed my clothes and put into the dryer without my knowledge. After collected and folded the clothes only found out one "Calvin Klein" T-shirt and a beach short were missing. There was nothing I could do for the loss.

This is our second time staying at Amba Ximending, but unfortunately this visit was disappointing. Staff service was excellent — everyone was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. However, the room conditions did not meet expectations. The TV signal was unstable, the WiFi was intermittent, and the air-conditioning weakened at night, causing us to wake up in the middle of the night feeling very warm. The room also wasn’t very soundproof, and we could hear noises from next door. The pillows looked fluffy but became completely flat once we lay on them, offering very little support - probably very old pillows. We also encountered a cockroach in the room, which was quite disappointing. Overall, the staff were great, but the room itself needs maintenance and improvement. It doesn’t feel like a 4 star hotel to be honest.

The location was extremely convenient and the free laundry is a plus. The only thing is we booked on Expedia (2 adults and 2 kids) but the room ended up having only 2 twin beds. So each adult had to sleep with a kid. It was very tight! The larger rooms were sold out when we were booking, but if you need more space, make sure you book the larger rooms - it’s only in those rooms where they can add an extra bed.

It’s sometimes hard to find a hotel with window in this area and amba does offer rooms with it. My room on top floor is clean and spacious, separate toilet and shower (rain shower available). toiletries are from nice Taiwanese brand. Can’t ask for more with this room rate!

The space was huge and comfortable for two friends travelling together. The toulet and shower are separate, the vanity is open, there is a living room with a roomy couch. There is plenty of space in this industrial-look hotel. The beds are comfortable and in a separate space with a curtain so one person could stay up while the other slept. Given the hot and humid temperatures, we were pleased with the quality of the AC. In fact we had to adjust it because it was too cool. The front desk staff at check in were excellent (Wendy and Eddie). They helped us short list a few restaurants and places to go during 1.5 days with you. Thanks for a comfortable and convenient stay in Taipei

We chose a room with window but all we saw was the rooms across from us. Their bedding was okay. The pillows were too low for me. The mattress was medium. The room was very spacious. I think overall it’s acceptable comfort wise. Location wise is excellent! It’s right at all the Ximending food area. Price wise, it makes sense because of the location. I would like to think that Ximending is a mini NewYork in this area.

I borrowed an umbrella and left in the room. Upon checkout I informed counter staff umbrella was in the room. They took very long to check and insisting to locate the umbrella before agree I can go. Disappointed stay. Will not stay here anymore and will not recommend my friends to stay here.

During check-in, the staff was neither welcoming nor friendly. He did not mention any of the hotel amenities or offer suggestions, even though we arrived very early in the morning. When we inquired about paying an early check-in fee, the rate offered was for a check-in six hours early, but at a price higher than our original booking rate. Additionally, we would still have had to wait two hours for that early check-in. We declined the offer, as it didn’t seem worth it
