Four Seasons Hotel Coming To Taipei

This is heady — Taipei will be getting what will scrutinizingly certainly be the city’s new weightier luxury hotel.

260-room Four Seasons Taipei stuff developed

Four Seasons and Yuan Lih Group have entered into an an agreement to unshut the Four Seasons Taipei. The new 260-room hotel will be located in the Xinyi District, directly opposite of Taipei 101, one of Asia’s most iconic skyscrapers.

The 31-story, 180-meter (591-foot) hotel will offer municipality and mountain views through its floor-to-ceiling windows. It will have a variety of dining venues, including a high-end Chinese restaurant, destination bar, specialty restaurant, all-day dining restaurant, pool bar, and lobby lounge. The hotel will moreover have an outdoor pool, spa, gym, and more.

Interestingly the Four Seasons Taipei will full-length an executive club lounge. Not many Four Seasons properties have these, so it’s tomfool to see that this property will boast one — I’m sure it will be top notch.

An opening stage hasn’t yet been spoken for the Four Seasons Taipei, though construction is once underway, and is expected to be completed in “a few years.” So I’d guess it will be 2026 at the earliest, and increasingly likely 2027, surpassing this hotel opens.

This should set a new standard for Taipei hotels

Taiwan is an incredible place, with superstitious people, food, and culture. However, historically it’s not a destination you visit considering of its luxury or points hotel options.

Taipei has plenty of solid mid-range uniting hotels, from the Grand Hyatt, to the W and Le Meridien, to the Kimpton. Sadly Taipei doesn’t have a single “true” luxury trademark belonging to a points program, as there are no properties belonging to St. Regis, Ritz-Carlton, Conrad, Waldorf Astoria, Park Hyatt, etc.

As it stands, I’d say the Mandarin Oriental and Shangri-La are the two weightier luxury properties in Taipei, though neither is really regarded as stuff among the top properties of either brand.

The Four Seasons Taipei should bring modern luxury to the municipality in a way we haven’t seen before, which is exciting. I’d moreover seem this will be one of the increasingly reasonably priced municipality Four Seasons properties, given that Taipei just can’t sustain particularly upper hotel rates (compared to Tokyo, Hong Kong, etc.).

Bottom line

The Four Seasons Taipei is stuff development, and construction should be well-constructed in a few years, so I suspect this hotel will realistically unshut in 2027. It’s unconfined to see Taipei getting a new luxury hotel, since the municipality could use some increasingly options. Now if only a major hotel group with a points program would unshut a luxury property in Taiwan…

What do you make of the Four Seasons Taipei?
