We booked a 3d2n Honeymoon Retreat package in a Japanese style room on the Retreat floor. When I asked the reservations desk whether we would have a gorge view or garden view, they replied that we'd have a mountain view. They weren't kidding -- our windows looked out onto the face of the mountain, with only a steel-enforced ditch separating... More

At the far end of the Gorge road, you’ll find yourself at Silk Place, beautifully and simply situated in the end of the canyon. Walking into the lobby, you’ll be immediately impressed with the simple lines, uncluttered appearance and museum-like quality. Objects d’art can be found throughout, especially off to the right in a small sitting area you might overlook.... More

I bought a 3D2N package which includes garden room stay, 2 dinners & breakfast and 1 lunch, round trip shuttle bus service and a half day tour. The hotel is nicely situated within the Taroko Gorge. Although there weren't much hotel selection within the Taroko, this hotel ambiance and amenities is quite appealing. The service is great. The hotel staff... More

We had very much looked forward to visiting Taroko Gorge and this well-situated hotel. However, the night before we were scheduled to take the train to Hualien on May 13, I had the foresight to ask my Taipei hotel to telephone Silks Place Taroko and ask why Silks Place had not formally confirmed my request that they have a car...

despite there not being a lot of choices for places to stay in the gorge, this is a well appointed and serviced accommodation. The room was a little small and in need of some attention (peeling paper, cracked tiles etc). The restaurants and food was excellent. What really made the stay was the service from the staff - they were... More

We are lucky to have booked this hotel as it seemed to be the only way to have access to the national park after recent serious landslides. Surrounded by beautiful mountains and in the middle of the gorge with roaring torrent, Silks Place Taroko has the unbeatable location in the national park. Many trails are within walking distance from the... More

It was the third day of our cycling trip, and that morning, 9 of us braved a two-hour "ordeal" climbing some 1,200 m over just 20 km to Wuling, the highest paved pass at Hehuanshan.
