Fancy a weekend escape to one of the region’s most vibrant cities? Well, if you were looking for a timely rationale, uber-stylish hotel Kimpton Da An Taipei has just set up shop in the city’s vibrant Da’an District.
What’s not to love about Taipei? The people are friendly, the infrastructure is modern, and the food diverse and delicious. What’s more, Taipei is only a short flight from the likes of Bangkok, Singapore and Hong Kong, making it ideal for a weekend break.
The city’s newest design-savvy hotel, Kimpton Da An Taipei has been designed by award-winning architecture firm Neri & Hu and combines 129 stylish, timber and copper-clad guest rooms (some with private balconies or terraces) with striking water features, innovative dining and access to one of the city’s most exciting precincts.
Kick your day off with morning yoga on the rooftop, or a complimentary fitness class, then explore the city on foot or by hotel bicycle before returning in time to meet fellow travellers during the daily social hour in the Kimpton Da An Taipei’s lobby lounge.
You’ll also be able to tap into the extensive travels of chef James Sharman, who heads up the hotel’s signature restaurant The Tavernist, which serves contemporary dishes coupled with local touches and innovative cooking methods. The Tavernist embraces Taiwan’s organic movement and works closely with local farmers and food producers to ensure freshness and variety.
