Grand Banyan Hotel

There was so much to like about this Hotel. We arrived early and asked if we could stow our baggage while we went to get something to eat. We were told this would be no problem and once our room was ready, we would be given a call. Ended up checking in early. Room was spacious even with a King size bed, bath and shower... the toilet was separate from the bathroom which is always a plus. Washing facilities on the 11th floor consist of a washing machine and two dryers. This is not a laundromat but suitable for small loads. Rooftop swimming pool and gymnasium are located on the same floor. Breakfast was exceptional with meals to suit every taste. Eggs were cooked on demand and the breakfast chef was an excellent cook. Breakfast times were arranged at check-in. Brunch was available in lieu of breakfast from 11am at a small extra cost. Staff were always available and ready and willing to help in any way they could. Initially chose this hotel because of its location but would definitely stay here again.

Room was clean. Furnishings were new. Excellent bidet. Great way to clean off after voiding your large intestine. The stream of water will stimulate a reflex and help you to thoroughly void. Just like mommy panda licking baby panda on the bottom and helping baby poop. Dinner was a great experience. Small dishes allow you to try many things. All the dishes were made with great care. While the dinner was not cheap it was a great value. Breakfast was great. Many choices and everything was made with great care. Hot and ice cold water available in the hallway. Staff was helpful with directions to key sites.

The room is very new, comfortable and clean. Bed and pillow are good to fall into sleep. Sofa is also solid and comfortable. Air conditioner is working well and can be adjusted the temperature. Hotel staffs are very nice and willing to help. Breakfast with many vegetables is great for travelers. Just 7 mins walk to train station. It is a perfect place to stay in Tainan. I will come back for sure.

This was an excellent choice as a base for a few days sightseeing in Tainan old town. Very comfortable room, great breakfast buffet and lovely staff. The only inconvenience was that the hotel catering outlets were closed or not serving food on a weekday evening, so we had to go out in the pouring rain to find somewhere to eat. But this will not deter us from booking the Grand Banyan again when we go back to Tainan in a few weeks time.

The room was perfect - loads of space, plenty of room to put my bags and I loved having the espresso machine. It was also a treat to have a bath.
