MEANDER 1948

Staying at MEANDER 1948 felt less like a hostel and more like a hidden gem designed by someone who truly understands what travelers need. From the moment I stepped in, I could tell this place had personality—warm, welcoming, and effortlessly cool. The cozy sleeping pods were like little personal retreats, with great lighting and just the right amount of privacy. I may or may not have considered moving in permanently. The bathrooms and showers? Immaculate. Like, “I wouldn’t even hesitate to walk in barefoot” kind of clean. They were well-maintained, spacious, and stocked with everything I needed. A true blessing for anyone who’s ever had a questionable hostel bathroom experience. Then there’s the common area, which was basically a social butterfly’s dream and a tired traveler’s sanctuary all in one. Whether you wanted to chat with fellow adventurers, get some work done, or just chill with a cup of coffee, it had you covered. Speaking of coffee—huge shoutout to the coffee machine. It wasn’t just a machine; it was a daily lifesaver. MEANDER 1948 absolutely crushed it when it came to comfort, cleanliness, and thoughtful design. It’s the kind of place that makes you rethink ever booking a boring hotel again. If you’re heading to Taipei, do yourself a favor and stay here—you won’t regret it!

The location is very great. It is surrounded by local restaurants and is near Taipei mainstation. The room, bathroom and toilet are clean. Hotel provides gift vouchers to allow you to try local foods 😁 😁
