Farglory Hotel Hualien  

On Hualien’s coast between mountains and the Pacific, perched about 220 metres in Yanliao Tsuen, Shoufeng. This 4-star Victorian-style hilltop resort sits on roughly 25 acres of lush grounds and looks toward the deep blue ocean. You’re close to Hualien Farglory Ocean Park, Henan Temple, A Mei Wenhua Village and Zhikaxuan Forest Park—hands-down a family-friendly base for park days and nature walks.

Think Victorian elegance meets tropical calm: intricate architecture, verdant gardens and guestrooms leaning against the hills with ocean views. Nearly 400 air-conditioned rooms feature flat-screen TVs, safes and desks, plus modern bathrooms with complimentary toiletries. Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and simple, stylish rooms built for comfort and Instagram-ready views.

Plenty to keep you busy on-site: a full-service spa, sauna and steam bath, indoor pool plus a seasonal outdoor pool, and a fitness center with table tennis. Kids get playrooms and there’s karaoke for grown-up fun. Shuttle service to the nearby theme park, concierge and tour desk, gift shops, on-site parking and both wired and complimentary wireless high-speed internet round out the practical perks.
