no need to make a new thread....same question here...

I have zero hotel loyalty and other than a trip to the Kavalan distillery, I don't have any grand plans for my two nights in Taipei in September. [i know the distillery is not in Taipei...]

I will be flying back from HKG and my meeting folks always put us up at the MO in HKG and therefore just checked the MO rate in Taipei and its pretty cheap...so arrive around noon and then two nights and depart to YYZ at 7pm so just over two full days.

Never been to TPE and not sure I will get back there anytime soon. The only reason for the stop is that it was too hard to justify the CX premium over BR, which frankly in J lately, is head and shoulders better than CX so I will save my company a little coin and spend two nights on my own...

i will not fuss if i have to take a taxi or two either if that matters.

can't really post my corporate rates but there is some reasonable incentive to stay at the MO....

frankly, i would like to walk around, do a little shopping, perhaps check out the night market or two and maybe spend a few hours at a hot spring...

and if i can not do much of that, oh well.

i will be flying
