Humble House Hotel Taipei, Curio Collection by Hilton 

Located in the Xinyi District of Taipei, this hotel is part of the Hilton portfolio, and provided an excellent hotel stay experience in a perfect location. You enter on the ground (1st) floor and take the initial elevator to the 6th floor where you find the reception desk and restaurant. Once checked in you'll use separate elevator banks, and using your keycard you'll access your hotel room in the high-rise above. The hotel room is comfortable with good bedding and very nice bathroom. Be ready for the electric Toto toilet - it will automatically raise and lower the seat and offer bidet services. My perspective is that the room could be brighter - more lighting - but that's just me. The hotel restaurant provides for a very good breakfast buffet - juices, fresh-grinding espresso/coffee machine, fresh fruits, salads, cereals, congee, Taiwan noodle soups, eggs cooked to order, hot items, smoked salmon sliders, yogurts, breads, and mini chocolate croissants. You will not go hungry and will start your day well-fed. The fitness center is just-right, with cable machine, free weights, treadmills, and stationary bikes. The swimming pool was closed during my stay. Here are the perfect location aspects >> walking distance to Taipei Metro Bannan (blue) Line at the Taipei City Hall Station (use exit 3)...surrounding the hotel are multiple shopping malls (I think it's called Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Xinyi Place multiple buildings and Breeze Xinyi) with high-end shops, restaurants, food courts, and more. In fact after the malls open at 11am, there is a covered outdoor walkway on the 2nd and 3rd floors where you may navigate all over the malls even if it's raining. Amongst the restaurants available are a Din Tai Fung location - get there early - a TimHoWan for Hong Kong dim sum, a Texas Roadhouse (right below the hotel 6th floor), a TGI Fridays, and lots more. Across the street in the BellaVita mall food court is a CEO Beef Noodle, which offers a clear broth beef noodle soup that is really delicious. Also in walking distance is the Taipei 101 Tower. Highly recommend.
