Yue Ya Villa

LikedI stayed at this hotel twice and this is a review for both of those stays slotted together in an unholy union. I've done this because my experience here was so Janus-faced that I'm not sure how else to do it. Basically, I stayed one night and I paid about $2000 and I got a truly amazing room. I think one of the best rooms I have ever stayed in in Taiwan and certainly one of the best in terms of making use of the local environment. An amazing spar bath, comfortable bed, and a really incredible balcony with a comfortable chair to lounge in and enjoy a gorgeous view. Really fantastic.

DislikedIn fact, it was so amazing that I book another night, for about $2,000, on my return trip. On that stay, I was shown to a room in what looked like a maintenance shed with a mattress thrown on the floor. Not terrible, but the disparity of rooms in the same hotel is a bit jarring. You really have to be careful what room you book and the hotel really should have a bigger price disparity between rooms.
