Dar Chen Hotel

Nestled in the bustling heart of Yilan, Taiwan, I recently stumbled upon a hotel that proved to be a delightful surprise, marrying affordability with comfort in an unbeatable location. My stay, although brief, left a lasting impression, compelling me to recommend this hidden gem to travelers seeking a genuine local experience without breaking the bank.

Affordability Meets Comfort

First and foremost, the hotel’s affordability is a standout feature. In an era where travel costs are perpetually rising, finding a budget-friendly option that doesn’t skimp on quality is a rare feat. This establishment defies the odds, providing guests with excellent value for their money.

Prime Location for Nightlife and Culture

A major highlight of the hotel is its proximity to Yilan’s famous night market. The convenience of being a stone’s throw away from vibrant stalls and lively alleyways enriched our experience, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the local culture effortlessly. The night market, a kaleidoscope of sights, sounds, and tastes, became our nightly adventure, all within easy walking distance from the comfort of our hotel.

Spacious, Clean Rooms with a View

The cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms deserve special mention. Our top-floor room offered a panoramic view of the night market and surrounding alleyways, turning our stay into a picturesque experience. The cool March weather complemented our visit perfectly, eliminating the need for air conditioning and enhancing the room’s comfort.

Short but Sweet Stay

Although our time at the hotel was limited to an overnight stay as we were en route to another city, every hour spent was a testament to the hotel’s thoughtful amenities and consideration for guests on a budget. The room was well-equipped with essentials, ensuring a comfortable and hassle-free stay.

Warm Hospitality and Local Charm

The staff’s friendliness and hospitality further amplified our positive experience. Their warm welcome and eagerness to assist made us feel at home, adding a personal touch to our stay.

A Local Experience Worth Recommending

This hotel is more than just a place to sleep; it’s a gateway to experiencing Yilan like a local. Its unbeatable combination of affordability, location, and quality makes it a perfect choice for budget-conscious travelers eager to explore the city’s dining, cultural, and nightlife offerings.

In summary, for those planning a visit to Yilan and looking for an accommodation that ticks all the boxes of a great stay without straining your wallet, this hotel is a worthy contender. Its close proximity to the night market, coupled with the clean, spacious rooms and friendly staff, ensures a memorable and authentic local experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a comfortable, convenient, and cost-effective stay in Yilan.

Exceeded my expectations, to say the least!

The hotel is quite close to the Yilan railway station as well as a number of restaurants; which made it really convenient. The check-in process was a breeze, thanks to the extremely polite and cordial staff over here.

The double bedroom was quite spacious, well-ventilated, and well-equipped as well. The beds and sheets were extremely comfortable and was ideal for a good night's sleep after spending an entire day riding the bicycle around Yilan. Would certainly book a room here again :)

Super service, people where very kind. The hotel had been run by the sane family for 3 generations. The needs are comfortable and we had a window and a bathtub. Some things could use a little update but nothing too bad.

Great hotel at a convenient location near the metro and bus stations. Excellent staff who are very cooperative. They also have free bicycles.

Very nice Boss and friendly , allow me to assemble my bike inside the premise.

2024-02-15 住了兩晚，房間很大，有浴缸超爽，隔音不太好，阿公(應該是老闆)很親切

距離夜市很近！房間乾淨，四人房假日價錢cp值高，不含早餐，但我覺得自己去外面吃也還好，且已經反應在價錢上。只是停車場太遠了，開車的人要辛苦一點，整體來說推薦！

有點年代的飯店，卻不輸一般旅店
離夜市近
人員服務有耐心

很棒，地點好，很乾淨，又便宜。

充滿古早回憶的裝潢風格，但是非常的乾淨整潔！房間有重新裝潢過，極簡風，床的軟硬適中很不錯！距離東門夜市走路只要1分鐘，距離火車站走路約5分鐘！CP值非常高的飯店，回宜蘭一定會再訪！

乾淨便宜舒適！！地理位置很好，夜市就在旁邊，距離車站也很近！還有浴缸可以泡澡，實在是太讚了

地點很棒，老闆跟櫃台都很熱情
小孩很喜歡
飯店裡面有曬衣架還有浴缸覺得很棒耶
要離開的時候才發現有很多隱藏服務
有機會再來住
完全物超所值

略有些陳舊，有些房無真實對外窗（天井又加蓋）很悶，但還算乾淨價位不貴，將就一晚

老闆服務態度很好～房間設備不錯，昨天來住一個晚上，附近也有很多吃的，飯店對面是夜市，附近也有超商，採買東西很方便

爆星，房間雖然不是太新，沒有二手煙味，但很乾淨，友善服務客人，推介

櫃檯阿姨跟叔叔人都超好，還有指揮車子的工作人員服務💯，飯店外觀雖然有年代感，但是這間飯店真的是我看過浴室地板跟浴室磁磚都刷的超級亮，完全看不到垢的，推！

Kunjungan kedua ku ke kota Yilan, dan kali ini aku menginap satu malam,, setelah tiba di terminal bis, aku hunting hotel terdekat dan akhirnya ku temukan hotel Dar Chen ini,, saat telvon untuk reservasi sang pemilik paman Bos memberi tahu harga sewa permalam yaitu 1600 nt,, tapi ternyata lebih mahal dari harga yang tertera di web site,karena menurutku harga dihari kerja tidak semahal hari libur,setelah adegan tawar menawar beliau memberi harga deal di 1400 nt🤣🤣
Letak hotel yang strategis, dekat dengan stasiun kereta api Yilan, pasar malam Dong Men,, dan yang pasti kamar hotel terjamin kebersihannya👍
Ya style bangunan lama, tapi beberapa kali melakukan revonasi kamar,,bahkan sang pemilik mengkonfirmasi bahwa hotel tersebut sudah beroperasi selama kurang lebih 60 tahun,,😵‍💫
Setelah chek out pengunjung boleh menitipkan barang bawaan, seperti koper atau ransel,, dan itu sangat membantu,,👍
Jalan” ke Yilan kalian boleh mencoba menginap di hotel ini,,😍
Sangat recommended dan layak untuk dikunjungi👍👍👏👏🥰🥰

雖然飯店是老式房屋
重新改造
讓人揮別對老式飯店的印像
房內什麼都不缺
乾淨,舒適,服務人員親切
平價
在宜蘭市區算是很棒的啦
糟糕！
因太開心了
沒拍照
大力推薦此飯店

緊鄰東門夜市，覓食方便。四人房配兩張加大雙人床，空間很大，環境舒適乾淨。物超所值的房價，會再度造訪。

110-0225平日入住501雙人房$1500，飯店樓下騎樓可停四部車，老闆很熱心，請我們先開到飯店門口再指揮停進去，但要注意，若太晚check in,可能就沒得停了(我們約下午六點入住）。kingsize的乾淨床鋪、富士通的冷氣、有第四台，沒小強、沒煙味，窗戶有2道，其中一道是氣密窗，關上後就聽不見街道的喧鬧聲，安靜許多。雖是老飯店，但浴室、快煮壺..等許多細節處都打理的乾淨，窗戶打開就可望見樓下的東門夜市入口，走路半分鐘就到，想吃外食很方便(飯店不提供早餐)，這次來宜蘭玩，很好的住宿體驗。
