Though it is very close to one of the exits of Taipei Main station, the station is huge, so it is quite a walk from the MRT. Closer to the airport line.

Very nice clean place. Loads of space for storage. Very clean toilets that are well maintained. The staff were really nice.

Noisy aircon in the dorm room. Light doesn't switch off automatically at night.

Location, dorm is very practically designed

Nil.

The social space was very inviting. I had the opportunity to speak to some fellow travellers when I went for a refill of water. The hostel is a short walk from the one of the exits. There is a 7-11 just beside the hostel so it was convenient to grab food and drinks even though I arrived quite late and the nearby shops were closed.

There is a bit of noise coming from the streets if you have a window. Not a problem for me though.

Staff were helpful and friendly. The aircon for summer was powerful. Location is good with 7-Eleven at the ground floor and lots of food places, some 24 hours, around the area as well as a small fresh food street market in the morning. You get free bottled water if you get the ensuit room. Otherwise, the common room has free hot and cold drinking water, some fridge space, and some tea and coffee. The laundry was efficient, both the washing machine and dryer. You can store your luggage if needed when you arrive or the day you leave. Taipei Main Station is easily accessible (but the station itself is a maze, go through Y Mall, and use exit Y13 for the closest exit to Meander 1948).

Great location Within walking distance to Taipei Main Station Close to shopping and local food stalls

Stay at Meander 1948 was my correct choice. Good place good person.

Nothing.

It was perfect. Extremely clean, very fresh and welcoming. Crisp sheets and clean bed, clean showers, clean carpet, clean and fresh room. What more can you want. Excellent 👍

If you're sleeping near the door, there's a very loud air filter running. I had to request them to turn it off to much reluctance from one male staff who initially insisted its not possible, but it was gone when I returned at night All the staff except that guy was very friendly and helpful. The guy was a stickler for the rules and I think he's better off in operations or finance rather than customer service. I asked whether I could refill water and instead of simply telling me I can do so on level 4, he unnecessarily used a rude tone saying hostel guests are separate from cafe guests on the ground floor. Another staff did not even hesitate to help me fill the bottle at the ground floor without question though I insisted I could do it myself at L4, stark difference.

Clean shared toilet and comfortable bed Free towel replacement every day which is rare in a hostel, and they even have spare floor towels for you to replace at any time in the toilet if the floor is wet Bunk bed was great, has a universal plug so you won't need an adaptor Has luggage locker and hangers too

Common area is a bit small, just one couch to relax. Hostel is on the more expensive site compared to others in similar location, but wouldn't say the hostel is massively better

Great location, comfy bed in dorm, spotless clean. Easy to do laundry, nice kitchen and common area (besides a bit too small). Walk-in distance to train station, convience store next door, plenty of restaurants nearby

I had to cut my trip short of 1 day. I didn't get refunded for my last day which is understandable. At least I didn't have to rush with the check-out time.

The pillow, and comforter were so comfortable, and the bed is big enough for me. I like that the sockets are placed next to my bed where I can easily reach for my devices without getting up. I also want to highlight how cool that the hostel has this event organized only for those staying in Meander 1948. It was a Firefly Watching walking tour which I participated only because there was a last minute cancellation (lucky me). The late check-in process was also easy.

There should be more hostel activities. Not just 1 the entire week.

Nice modern and clean rooms

Stayed in April 2025

Close to most tourist attractions, shops, restaurants, night markets and metro. The hostel offers access to tea and coffee 24 hours a day. The staff was very helpful in finding places, things we needed. Everything was great. We had a very simple room with no window, it was clean and enough for one night, beds comfy. The camon area was super nice and clean . We love the place. Will come back again

The staff were lovely and very helpful. The dorm rooms were so well designed with a decent sized locker and luggage storage for each person. The thick curtains around each bed were great for blocking light and giving a feeling of privacy. I appreciated the shelf in the bed space for storing my phone etc. I also liked having the gentler light and full light options in the bed space. Having the stairs to the upper bunks was also great! It was so clean and very charming. The communal space was lovely too.

The best thing was the location a stone throw away from Taipei main station, fast wifi and a western style cafe. The triple room was fairly spacious though there was no cupboard space just a few hangers and the TV was at an odd angle so did not us. We did not know reception was 24hrs which created a slight problem as we tried to leave a luggage at 7am but reception was not open

We stayed in the Meander Osaka hostel and enjoyed it so decided to book the one in Taipei too. It’s in a great location - close to the main station and within walking distance to some shopping areas and local restaurants. We had breakfast included which meant we had a choice of 4 restaurants to go to. We would recommend trying Li-Ji Soy Milk for a traditional Taiwanese breakfast. The room was a good size and showers had all the amenities we needed for our stay. Common area was nice too, although as we had a private room we didn’t need to use it much. Fresh towels provided each day along with bottles of water.

The hostel was in the perfect location. In walking distance to many activities, the MRT, and some night markets. The staff was friendly and helpful. Would stay here again.

The room is ok. It’s clean, but a bit old, with some marks on the wall. The pillow is a bit stiff and too thick for me.

Location is good. It’s near Taipei station, and just few minutes walk to underground shopping street. A convenient store is downstairs. The area feels safe at night. The staff were helpful too! They helped storing my luggage’s after checking out.
