The Lalu Hotel Nantou City

The Lalu Hotel is a member of Design Hotels. The Lalu, set in the central region of Taiwan, overlooks a panoramic view of mystical Sun Moon Lake and is named after the indigenous Thao aboriginal settlement. The hotel was once the favorite summer getaway for President Chiang Kai Shek and dates back to 1901. Its recent renovations and additions by Kerry Hill Architects have resurrected the property to a new international level of high-end standards - a first for this part of the world.
