Chesdon Hostel  

In Hualien City Centre, a short stroll from Tianhuitang and Meilunshan Park and minutes from the Japanese General House. Hualien Dongdamen Night Market and Taroko National Park are a short drive away; Hualien Airport (HUN) is about 5 km.

A compact, family-friendly hostel with just a few guestrooms and a lived-in, simple vibe. Rooms are air-conditioned and come with refrigerators, microwaves, safes and rice cookers; bathrooms include showers, hair dryers, slippers and complimentary toiletries, while a shared kitchen and a kids' playroom keep things practical and social.

Complimentary wireless internet, a TV in a common area, tour/ticket assistance and a shared kitchen are on offer, plus limited housekeeping and a front desk with restricted hours. It’s an easy base for Taroko day trips or evening runs to the nearby night market.

Luggage storage and a water dispenser are available, and complimentary Wi‑Fi keeps you connected while you plan excursions.

Self-cater in the shared kitchen or use in-room microwaves and fridges for quick bites. For local flavor, Hualien Dongdamen Night Market’s street-food stalls are just a short drive away for seafood and Taiwanese snacks.
