The amba Taipei SongShan is adjacent to Songshan Station. It was newly opened in 2016. It is a young creative brand under the Ambassador Hotel Group. Taking advantage of the fact that there are some Agoda members’ reward points, they can directly discount the room rate. If Little Hamburg has not been able to travel abroad yet, you might as well take a trip to explore Taipei, stay with us in the newly opened hotel and serve as a small reviewer.

Transportation: How to get to amba Taipei SongShan
The hotel is located near the terminal station of the Taipei MRT Songshan Xindian Line – Songshan Station, and the Taiwan Railway – Songshan Railway Station. Readers from other counties and cities or other countries can take public transportation to this place according to their needs. After leaving the station, take the underground passage for about 400 Arrive within 6 minutes.It is more inconvenient for us to bring a small hamburger and luggage. We take an Uber directly to the hotel entrance. The fare is slightly cheaper than a taxi. Go to the lobby on the 1st floor and take the box elevator to the housekeeping counter on the 17th floor to check in.

The counter service is sincere, and the precision can be enhanced
After arriving on the 17th floor, Wendy took a small burger to the sofa area and waited. I checked in with the counter staff. It was the first time I was not used to staying at a hotel in Taipei, and the idea of getting my passport out to them flashed in an instant. (Laughs) Submit your ID card and credit card for a 1,000 yuan deposit. The staff at the counter told us that everything is in order. Please take a break and wait for the notice. When we placed the order on the booking website beforehand, we noted that a baby cot is required. Maybe we are preparing these. .
The high-rise lobby has a view, youthful decoration and bright lighting, and even the Keelung River view can be seen from the window. The hardware equipment alone is a plus in my heart, and it also sells Taiwan-made fragrance products. For foreign tourists. In other words, it is very convenient to return home with souvenirs to present relatives and friends.In addition, the hotel also provides a free shuttle bus to allow guests to travel between the hotel and the 101 building. It takes about 10 minutes to drive to the Xinyi business district. The Songshan Yishe Hotel has an excellent location.
Seeing the check-in time, the other guests took the room card and went upstairs in order, and waited 10 minutes without notice, and then asked the counter staff "Is the room ready?" before I saw him consult another colleague. The room can be checked in without any problem. It turned out that we were left alone for more than 10 minutes.For travelers who demand fine service, there are some small deductions. For the hotel's room rate and star rating, I still directly suggest that "the progress of housekeeping should be tracked and guests should be proactively notified." (Occupational disease upper body)

I believe you all feel dizzy when you see this series of room types. How should you choose a room that suits you? (When I made the reservation, I observed it for a long time...)
You might as well cut the hotel room types into three categories: River View View, 101 Building City View View, and others. Then, you can choose the size of the room based on the number of occupants, so which one to choose is clearer and clearer.Taking Anya as an example, we wanted to see the city view of the 101 building. This time we took a small Hamburg to stay together. The space should not be too small and moderate. So we chose the 101 View King (king bed) 101 View King.
Then you will be concerned about "prices". When I book a hotel, I like "comparison". It's not like a TV advertisement on a room-booking comparison website, but the price of the same hotel at different times. Why?It mainly depends on whether the hotel will offer early bird discounts, and whether it is cost-effective to place an order at this time. Judging from the different monthly rates of the Songshan Hotel, there are almost no discounts. It seems that there are fewer activities and promotions. It is conveniently located and nearby. In Songshan and Xinyi business districts, it is of course not to make too many discounts, you can place an order and book a room! (→ Check hotel room rates)
▲ The bed bag in the hotel is made of pure cotton, and there are also 3M™ Thinsulate™ anti-allergic pillows and quilts to borrow.
▲ For reservations, it is recommended to choose wooden floors as much as possible to reduce allergens-dust mites.
Parent-child friendly environment and equipment, and perfect surrounding services
In the past travel experience, the two people's travels focused on the spaciousness, leisure facilities and surrounding living functions of the hotel, and at most extended to the apartment-type hotel. At this moment, Little Hamburg joined the travel ranks and began to pay attention to the parent-child (equipment) hotel.Before going out, my mother packed all kinds of supplies. I was afraid that when I arrived at the hotel, I did not pay attention and did not carry it. The child cried very hard. How can it be described by messy characters, it is the level of chaos in the world, but I did not expect Songshan Yishe Hotel Think of it all for us!
The crib is covered with a Peter Rabbit bed bag, and the soft cotton touch feels as careful and rigorous as I am preparing to use it for a small hamburger, but I neglected how to help him take a bath because of the nervousness of the hotel’s bathroom equipment. I saw the baby bathtub and toys in the bathroom space. The little duck breathed a sigh of relief.Wendy flipped through the introduction on the table and said that there are also various baby products:
‧ Sterilizer for baby bottles
‧ Milk warmer
‧ Baby chair
‧ Baby food grinder
‧ baby cart
‧ Baby potty chair
I think this hotel is different from how parents perceive a parent-child hotel nowadays. Instead of posting all kinds of fancy wall stickers and furnishing various toy routes, it is a parent-child friendly perspective that satisfies parents to take care of their babies in the hotel.
▲ Connecting to Bluetooth, can play music.
▲ The sky blue Peter Rabbit bed bag, I also like it very much.
▲ Enjoy freshly brewed coffee in Nespresso capsule coffee machine.
▲ A large table, not crowded with personal belongings.
▲ The Taiwanese brand "Jiangxin Bixin" is used as a spare item.
▲ Indoor slippers given to guests by the hotel.
▲ There are baby bathtubs, small chairs, and yellow toy ducklings.
▲Improve the guide manual, and also have English and Japanese versions.
▲ Try to borrow a milk warmer from the housekeeping staff, it is really provided to the guests! (Spot checker is coming)
Public environment and meals at amba Taipei SongShan
The restaurant on the left side of the lobby serves three meals for the guests. When I asked "Is it possible to order meals, whether the meals are self-service or a la carte?", perhaps the service team is still young and cannot answer the questions accurately and needs to ask other questions. People, this is a common situation in newly opened hotels, and it will not damage the overall service reputation. It is still necessary to strengthen the service connection of each link.This trip did not buy breakfast, but Wendy first comforted her son in the room, fed him milk, and asked me to come here for "lunch" first (the irregular meals are the normal life of novice parents).
The menu has a variety of à la carte staples. The service staff recommends their favorite beef noodles. After reading the menu text, Anya couldn't help but change it to a beef burger. It was juicy and punctual with one bite, very delicious!Don’t you know that you usually have exercise habits?The gym on the 18th floor provides a variety of equipment, such as weight training, treadmills, etc., and it can also consume calories from just meals.
Finally, on the same floor, there are washing machines, free washing powder, hot water dispenser and ice cube maker. Whether it is business travelers or general travelers, the convenience provided by the ambassador Matsuyama is far beyond imagination, and the industry has greatly exceeded the standard in "service". It is worth recommending to readers, you can evaluate and consider staying when you travel to Taipei.
▲ There is a children’s play area on the right hand side of the photo.
▲ View of Taipei city.
▲ The freshly cooked beef burger is delicious.
▲ The meal is accounted for in the room, and the counter staff will assist in the checkout when returning.
▲ Free washing powder is provided.
▲ After a brief introduction to the hotel’s services, equipment and meals, let’s take a look at the surrounding environment.
Near Raohe Street Night Market, Wufenpu and Songshan Station shopping malls are super convenient
When foreign tourists come to Taiwan, are the Raohe Street Night Market and Wufenpu "must visit/go" in their minds?
Originally, I planned to take Little Hamburg to the night market and taste a few old stalls to enjoy the food. I was helpless with the rain that night. Considering that the temperature turned cold, I transferred to the shopping mall in Songshan Station-City Link.This mall is co-constructed with the MRT and Taiwan Railways. Some chain gourmet restaurants are stationed. If you go to the third floor, you will see a children’s play area, hand-made classroom courses, and parent-child restaurants. We are walking around and looking for a restaurant. After having a meal, readers can see the appearance of the mall and the follow-up planning itinerary through the following photos.
▲ From the third floor marked by the hotel, there is an overpass to the second floor of the mall, and the corresponding number of floors on both sides is different.
▲ The shopping mall is quite lively.
▲ Cooking class.
▲ Children's dance classroom.
▲ Ha~ Little Hamburg looks empty.
▲ When his son is older, he will like this kind of ball pool game area.
▲ Luggage lockers are provided on the B1 floor.
▲ A look at the appearance of the hotel.
