Jasper Young Hotel Banqiao

Modern design. Mobile YouTube and Netflix can share to TV. Very convenience!

Nice room and facilities! Provide a nice sauna facility we can use too. Highly recommended.

According to Taiwan MOENV on 17 July, "Lodging providers shall be prohibited from offering liquid toiletry and bodycare products in single-use packaging with a volume of less than 180 milliliters, and shall be required to provide large-bottle wall-mounted shower products instead. The EPA stated that enterprises will be given a buffer period to deplete their inventory and adjust, with inspections commencing from 1 January 2025. Personal hygiene items such as combs, toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, shaving foam, and shower caps are not to be actively displayed." -- Poor services. It was my first time traveling to Taiwan and was totally unaware of the gov's new go-green initiative. When I found out that no bathroom amenities will be provided upon checking in the hotel, I asked the check-in staff if she could kindly provide me a set of toothbrush and toothpaste as I forgot to bring mine. Then the check-in staff told me that they do not provide such FREE toiletries anymore. In fact, she informed me that if I wanted it I could BUY it from her, followed by showing me a bag of personal hygiene items such as combs, toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, shaving foam, shower caps and slippers. I understood that the hotel supported the government's movement of restricting single use lodging supplies. However, such act of selling was truly unfavourable as it sounded like Jasper Young hotel wanted to make some profit from those items used to be inclusive in hotel room fare, on top of the paid room rate. If you are supporting the gov's move, please do it whole-heartedly. "The EPA stresses that the regulation does not entail a complete ban on toiletry products. The reduction of disposable amenities need not compromise the quality of hotel services." I had an unpleasant stay with Jasper Young Hotel with its dirty and sticky room floor. I shifted to another hotel within the same area on the next day. Surprisingly, this hotel with a lot much cheaper room rate compared to Jasper Young, actually provided sets of nice bristle tooth brushes and toothpastes in their bathroom without any requests, they even provided bath salt for a soak. Their room has a better view, and so much cleaner floor with slippers given.

Room is spacious and clean. Shower room and toilet are separate. Staff are polite and helpful. We arrived late in the afternoon at 5pm and were recommended to have food at the next building's restaurant, which were special and delicious. Walking distance to train station is about 10 to 13 minutes, which is reasonable. We also tried the sandwiches and coffee breakfast downstairs before departure. We really enjoyed our stay 4 nights there!

Location is ok if you drive. There’s 7-11 and Family Mart opp. The family room with 2 queen size beds was good and there’s a bathtub. Overall size is ok.

Love the hotel totally. Innovative space design for washroom/bath with the bedroom. The toilet is like the latest technology kind.
