With a private charter

Taichung International Airport is about 18.5 km away and the hotel has no free shuttle, so whether you fly in or arrive at HSR Taichung Station, a private charter transfer can be arranged directly. City sights are close together, and walking the Calligraphy Greenway and the science museum is enough for a day, so a charter is best for trips out of town: west to Gaomei Wetlands (about 36 km) for the sunset, north to Dajia Jenn Lann Temple (about 33.9 km), or east up to Dakeng (about 9.6 km). The hotel has plenty of parking but spaces cannot be reserved; there is a drop-off point beside the entrance, the quickest place for pick-ups and drop-offs.
