We are going down to the southern part of Taiwan and this time is Tainan City. (Tainan City, the oldest city of Taiwan.)

Being the oldest city in Taiwan, the whole city is packed with historical buildings and temples with some more than 200 years old.

Mumtraveller was geared up to explore the city which undoubtedly rooted many dishes of Taiwan and of course to stay comfortably had picked Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel.

Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel Tainan

Being a five-star hotel, there is no doubt on the facilities the hotel provided. There is free wifi connection, complimentary parking for hotel guests and free access to the health club with gym and outdoor swimming pool, which is great for kids.

We were so lucky this time to be upgraded to deluxe family room with 2 queen beds and a panoramic view of Tainan city. I really like the size of the room as the space is big enough to let the baby crawled around but still within our watchable distance.

To delight the whole experience, Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel Tainan took the extra effort to celebrate my 3rd anniversary with a complimentary chocolate cake from The Shop, which was extremely delicious.

There is also an authentic Chinese restaurant on the 38^th floor which served Huaiyang cruisine as well as local Taiwanese and Cantonese delicacies. Mumtraveller did not have the chance to try this time and will definitely plan for a next trip soon.

Tips to travel with kids

Mumtraveller always travel light and the tip to do that will always call the hotel to prepare on the baby cot, baby bath tub and some hotels even provided bottle sanitizers.

And in this case, Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel Tainan has everything taken care of.

So do make sure you remember to ask the hotel what they can provide in advance and your luggage will have ample of space to fit an extra sexy dress and shoes for special dinner with hubby.

The best part of the hotel is actually in the location itself. Centrally located in the middle of downtown Tainan, Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel Tainan, gives you easy access to shopping centre and also historical sites.

It is also just 5 minutes walk from the train station and the famous National Cheng Kung University (NCKU).

You can just sneak out for a break and have a shopping spree while you left the kids with your husband by the pool.

And to make up for the family time, NCKU is just a few steps away and you can just take the kids to the big greenery field safe for hem to run around or even play soccer.

Overall, Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel Tainan will be my number 1 choice of hotel to stay in Tainan city for sure.
