Which hotel to choose in Taichung?
We wanted a hotel near the famed Feng Jia Market during our visit to Taichung. There are plenty of options to stay around the area. However, the dates when we travel are popular among holidaymakers. After searching through booking.com, we decided to call Green Hotel home during our stay in Taichung.
Green Hotel is a 3-star Hotel located on Xitun Road. It had rooms ranging from dormitory style to 2 bedrooms for families. It's known as the Green Hotel due to its decor. There is a 13 metres tall green wall running from the 1st floor to the top floor!

Check-In

| Green Hotel Lobby |
We arrived in Taipei at Taoyuan Airport. We opted for a
direct transfer via a private car booked from Klook to get to the Green Hotel.
We intended to stay in Taichung for 3 nights before heading to Taipei. You can check out our
Full Itinerary and guide here. Check-in time was at 3pm. We arrived but had to wait for a while to get our rooms. The reception was small, with only a front desk and no seats to wait. You could stay in the coffee shop next to it or in the basement before getting the rooms.

The accommodation for the stay is a deluxe quadruple bedroom. The room only measures
18m². It's not a huge room, but it can fit 2 queen-size beds. Decorated in light green and white hues, the rooms are clean. At about SGD 150 a night, it is affordable for a family of four. The room also comes with a Window, which is not the norm in Taiwan.

Other facilities include a flat-screen TV and Coffee Maker. There are no cupboards and a safe. You can choose to hang your clothes on the hangers provided against the wall. Complimentary water is available in the common area, and the room comes with a mini-fridge too.
For a 3 Star Hotel, the toilet is surprisingly luxurious. It does not have a bathtub but a vast shower space in a marble-clad bathroom.

We reckoned that the Green Hotel Taiching has its quirky side. For example, you could take a succulent plant up the room as a 'sleeping partner'.
A light breakfast consisting of bread and cereals are provided in the morning at the pantry in the basement. It probably will not keep you full, but it's a nice touch for the hotel's guests.
The basement is also a fun place to hang out for the kids. There is ample space for kids to roam around.

There is even a mini treehouse for kids to play in.
There are no shops but an open store where you can get drinks, snacks and noodles. No cashier around, just honesty to do its wonders.
Guest can also leave messages on the board that shows the location of the Green Hotel and Taichung attractions. All of these gave out a feeling of warmth during our stay. Green Hotel is a great place to stay in Taichung if you enjoy the communal spirit.
There is the Proteus Coffee and Cake on the 1st floor for those looking for a place to eat. Other than that, there are plenty of restaurants located along the streets.
Location-wise, Green Hotel is perfect, with only a 5 minutes walk to Fenjia Market and the shopping district of Xitun. We headed out to Fengjia Market EVERY Night during our stay!
Fengjia Market is touted as the largest night market in Taiwan; it's the perfect place to fill your stomach with Taiwanese Street food and shop for souvenirs!
If you are planning a trip to Taichung, Fengjia Green Hotel will be a place we recommend!
