Amba hotel is a modern and trendy hotel. located in the heart of the bustling Ximending area. The rooms are not large, but very clean and have all amenities you could expect from a hotel in this range (coffee-making facilities, complimentary drinking water) and even some extra surprises (a pair of take-away trendy slippers). The hotel is in a reduced-traffic... More

Interesting boutique hotel at the hard of ximenting, about 10 mins walk for subway. It is not exactly easy to find as it is part of a building and you need to take a lift to reach the hotel reception area. Nice cozy restaurent with features of toys from yesteryears. There are many shops available for most shops open at... More

Stayed at Amba for 2 nights. Room is clean and new. The hotel located in the heart of Ximending which is very convenient and only 5 minutes walk to the train station. There are lots of art pieces and paintings in the hotel as well. Will stay again next time I visit Taipei!

We stayed only for 1 night as the hotel was booked out a month in advance. I think the hotel caters to a lot of package tourists. Hotel staff are lovely (although the day staff are much better than those on the night shift). Communication through emails beforehand was very good. The breakfast involved a large selection but the quality... More

I especially love the clean and slick design of the hotel and all their ginger-scented shampoo and gels were from a local Taiwanese ginger farm, supporting small local businesses. You can buy the family sized bottles at the reception as well. A few of us were going to Taipei together and 3 out of 4 rooms were upgraded. Great location,... More

The rooms may be small and not that of 4 or 5 star fancy, but they thought of everything from tooth brush to sets of flipflops to take. The staffs were above and beyond my expectation. Location was great. It was fun. I will be returning.
