Cityinn Hotel Plus Taichung Station Branch is a 4-class hotel in the East District, about 0.1 miles from Taichung Station. The booking page shows a guest rating of 9.2 out of 10 from more than a thousand reviews, with guests praising friendly staff, clean rooms and comfortable beds, and one calling it a two-minute walk to the station. Reviews mention a buffet breakfast with many Taiwanese dishes, 24-hour check-in and a bus stop about thirty seconds away. Nightly prices are low for the quality, so it is the best budget base in this guide for travellers who rely on trains and buses.
Location and getting around
The hotel's biggest advantage is that it is next to Taichung Station, so trains to the high-speed rail connection, Taipei and the coast are easy, and buses to the museum district and other parts of the city start nearby. Miyahara and the old station district are a short walk, which makes it ideal for an early-morning ice cream before the queues build. The taxi rank at the station makes late arrivals easy.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms are described as clean and comfortable, with card-key access and toiletries. The breakfast is popular with guests and includes many local dishes, and the 24-hour check-in is useful for late trains. The booking page lacks a full amenity list, so check it for parking, laundry and room sizes. Rooms near a busy station can pick up noise, so ask for a higher floor or a quiet room when you book.
Who it suits and what to know: it suits budget-minded travellers, solo visitors, couples and anyone catching early trains, and it is a smart base for day trips by public transport. It is less suited to travellers who want a pool or resort facilities, and families may want a larger room type. Compare rates with and without breakfast, because the buffet is good value, and book early for holiday weekends when station-area hotels fill quickly.
