Ruifang – Heimagistingar

Elizabeth Bandaríkin

We loved this place and everything about it. The host is lovely—she gave us many recommendations, ensured we knew what trains to take for our outings, gave us small gifts and goodies, offered to help us get laundry washed, and provided flexibility with check in and check out. All this she did with patience and a smile, even though we could not speak Mandarin and had to rely on translation apps. The location is excellent—walking distance to several buses and trains to nearby Jiufen, Shifen Waterfall, Bitoujiao, Keelung, and other great spots. The room itself is quiet, comfortable, and spacious with great lighting. It seems very clean and modern, with nothing out of date and everything functioning perfectly. It is well-appointed and nicely laid out. Guests have access to water, a refrigerator, a tea kettle, coffee, and fast/consistent WiFi. The toiletries and soaps were luxury, and we took note of the shower gel in particular so we can buy it to take home. This place is exceptional value, easy to book and find, and offered us complete privacy and autonomy. The host provided great communication from our initial booking until we said goodbye. Overall we give this hotel our highest recommendation—it was our favorite hotel of the 4 we stayed in on our visit throughout the island. The next time we come to the Taipei area, we will stay here.

We were travelled all the way from Sun Moon Lake to Ruifang for an opportunity to stay in this wonderful villa, it is by far the best accomodation throughout our time in Taiwan and possibly one of the best in the world. The entire experience is just of surreal quality and very nature oriented. We have stayed in numerous hotels around but definitely nothing of this caliber. Firstly, it is the personal touch from the owner which makes it very special, he is a very hands-on and honest dude providing AUTHENTIC recommendations throughout our stay... and we definitely shared some of our artistic interests with one another as well. Try getting that personal touch in The Ritz, Claridges or even Shintamani... (all you will experience is just a formalistic approach) Secondly, the Villa is located in an almost abandoned hill which used to be a gold-mine hill with very little occupants around that hill and that is absolutely phenomenal... It is like an accomodation in a movie, very idyllic, peaceful and in an almost youtopian state Thirdly, and this comes as a surprise, we didnt know that up the hill it is Jiufen (one of the most popular spots in Taiwan), which is only a 5 minute drive up. Jiufen and Shifen is a must go destination in Taiwan, in fact I am looking to stay in a similar accomodation in Jiufen hopefully in my next visit. There are many other extraordinary experiences in this villa that is just priceless, from dining with complete privacy (just the 2 of us) and a stunning view, to sleeping with the sounds of the nature in an almost abandoned location. It is an accomodation just like a dream, once in a lifetime.
