The Howard Plaza Hotel Taipei was a very nice quiet hotel. The bed was large and comfortable. There was a separate shower and bath with plenty of towels and soap/shampoo/conditioner. The staff was very friendly and always greeted everyone. It was close to transportation...bus and subway.

Breakfast was very good. Room was dated but large. They were refurbishing the hotel when we were there, but we got an older room. Location was a bit far from train stations, but cabs are very affordable, so it didn’t matter. Overall a solid option for a family of 4 for a few days in Taipei.
