The Leaf Inn

With its industrial style concrete exterior, The Leaf Inn doesn’t seem like the most appealing of hotels but underneath that minimalist veneer you’ll find a true gem in the heart of Hualien. This hotel is ultra-modern with some really tasteful decor in both the public areas and the rooms. Each has its own particular style and for a hotel in this price bracket, they are pretty luxurious.

The industrial theme is prevalent once again in this affordable hostel that’s also located just a short walk from Hualien train station. Hualien WOW Hostel offers modern comforts in a building that feels something like a re-purposed factory.
