Shared spaces
There is a large wooden table in the lounge. It is a place to eat, leaf through a book or chat with travellers you have just met.
We have brought our love of nature into the shared spaces and guest rooms, using eco-conscious, vintage-industrial design to create a place that feels considerate, warm and kind to the environment.
B1Bicycle storage and multipurpose space
Bicycles can be stored on B1 beside the multipurpose space. A spin dryer is also available on this floor for removing excess water from hand-washed clothes.

Hualien Green Falls
Care for the environment is one of our commitments. We designed and planted the green wall running between the first and second floors ourselves, surrounding Hualien’s distinctive black granite with thriving plants so travellers can enjoy the greenery from the second-floor lounge.

Cook a generous meal on the induction hob, bake something in the oven, or use the microwave and large refrigerator to keep meals simple during your stay.

This semi-outdoor space puts you close to the life of Hualien. Gather over drinks, read, or curl up in an egg chair and think for a while.
