“Alishan Hotel leverages its setting near the Alishan National Forest, though some aspects need refreshing. Its history and views are clear assets, but the full experience relies heavily on the location's natural appeal. I think the hotel could invest more in its facilities to truly match the exceptional surroundings.”
