Top hotels in Dadaocheng
Royal Seasons Hotel Taipei Nanjing West
Room was very clean but a bit small, staff were excellent, breakfast included was very good

LUMOS INN
No stairs so keep that in mind if you have heavy luggage. Otherwise the common area was a nice touch with free tea and snacks. That was surprisingly nice. The weird steps in the room and the bathroom took a little getting use to. Overall decent stay. Close to some good markets and street food.

City Suites Taipei Nanxi
The room was spacious and clean. There is a fridge in the room so we could keep our drinks cool. Our room was at the front so we had a view of the main street which was interesting to people watch.

The Grand Hotel
Complimentary shuttle service is helpful since it is farther than other hotels from the MRT. Good stay despite renovation.
