Hold Me Hotel  Zhongzheng

Hsinchu

First, note that all sources other than Tripadvisor list this hotel as "H.M. Hotel" not "Hold Me Hotel."  It is marked as "H.M. Hotel" on maps as well.  The hotel occupies the 11th and 12th floors of a nondescript office building.  The hotel is firmly 3-star, meaning that it has 24 hour desk service, breakfast, English speaking staff, etc., but not business or concierge services.  One of the other reviews says that it "smells" ... this is pretty typical for 3-star hotels in Asia.  My room was very slightly musty.  I opened the window.

The hotel has recently been renovated with new furniture and bedding sprucing up a somewhat run-down building.

Note that the hotel is in Hsinchu City, not Hsinchu County and is within walking distance of the Hsinchu train station, not the Hsinchu high speed rail station.  On the Hsinchu City tourist map the hotel is easily found: look for the "05" market in the middle of the map.  The hotel is next door to the Hsinchu City Fire Museum and across the street from and slightly north of Hsinchu City Hall, a Japanese-era landmark building.

The hotel is fantastically located for Hsinchu City tourism, a few blocks from the East Gate landmark, a major shopping center, cafes and restaurants, etc.  It's about a 15 minute walk from the (slow) train station.  The hotel internet is fast and robust, with both wireless and wired service available.

My only real complaint is that the hotel has adopted the now-fashionable approach of having a shower with no shower curtain, letting the water get all over the tiled bathroom floor to be wiped up later.  I can't stand this but it's more and more common, I suppose because it's easier to clean.  Otherwise the bathroom as fine -- though not wheelchair accessible.

Overall, I was very happy with my stay, especially considering the low price.

Perfectly acceptable 3-star hotel in the center of Hsinchu City

Chose hotel (1 nite) for its nearness to the train station as it was to break the long trip between Kaohsiung and Taoyuan. Hotel Rooms and Reception was on the 11th floor of a commercial building with a Bank on the 1st floor. The elevator door opened to a stnky lobby where the Reception was. Reception staff was abrupt and took a long while (15 mins) to find and process the check-in. The whole place looked liked an office floor partitioned and converted into rooms. Given a room just behind the partition wall to the dinning area. The room smelt of stale tobacco and dimly lighted. No view or natural lights as the only window opened to the wall of the ajacent building. Wash basin was mounted on filmsy/sloppy steel brackets. Sign said - bath-tub not working and to take a shower, it was a 2 feet climb over the edge of the tub (it was mounted up from floor level). had to empty almost half bottle of deodorant to neutralise the 'smell'.
