Conveniently located in Taipei City, On My Way - Taipei Hostel offers comfortable accommodation just a 3-minute walk from Beitou MRT Station.

I stayed in three hostels during my trip to Taiwan, Vietnam, and Cambodia. ON MY WAY was the best. It was good deal and also triple the price of the other two. Yes, "You get what you pay for." What did the higher price bring? A wonderfully stocked kitchenif you cook. Plenty of toilets and showers and no lines to use them. Beds with good curtains lights and electric outlets. Large bedrooms so that we could move easily in the rooms. Two different meeting places to discuss things with other travelers. Things all the hostels had in common - fast Internet, friendly staff, and great locations. There was an eclectic mix of nationalities of the guests, including several Japanese college students on break. The hostel is located a good 20 minutes away from many of the sights of downtown Taipei and is in the Beitou neighborhood. If you are heading to Taipei's premier hot spring location, it is perfectly located. Besides the hot spring area about a ten minute walk away, there are local museums, several local night and morning markets, and plenty of shopping within walking distance. Try the morning street markets. Download the metro Taipei transportation app; the hostel is near multiple bus stops that will take you to downtown and the major night markets. Or you could just ride the subway from Beitou Station. I like the buses more than the subways because I like to see the local streets and traffic. I spent four nights and five days here and would gladly stay here again.

    Easy to reach from the airport, within 3 minutes walking from Taipei Main station. Very very clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were modern too. The bunk beds were surprisingly spacious! I could fit my suitcase there (only standing up though) but there was some separate storage space for suitcases as well. Friendly and helpful staff, had a lovely time there and the hostel kept me safe during earthquakes..! :)

    This is my wife's review: I loved everything. A great location very close to the metro station and a bike-sharing station too. The facilities offer everything you need for a good and safe stay (in a hostel). The beds were so comfortable and everything was working just fine. The shared bathroom was super clean. It really exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it, especially for a woman/girl traveling by herself.
