First impressions of the hotel - it was impressive, modern construction with a sleek look and has an excellent views of Sun Moon Lake, arguably the best of all the lake-side hotels. Further inspection led to disappointments... The entrance looks very chic with it's wooden beams/columns. The bird cages hanging outside is such a nice touch, especially as they have... more

The best thing about this hotel is the lake view which is breathtaking. Other than that, everything else is overrated. The hotel is in need of a refurbishment, as it is showing signs of its age. The restaurant choices are limited. The Japanese restaurant is only open during the weekends, and the Chinese restuarant is average at best. While staff... more

The service was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. You can always find smiles on their faces. The location was excellent too, with easily and leisure walk along the lakeside, you can reach the main street of Sun Moon Lake. more

Is a magnificent property. It is built on the edge of the small peninsula so the view on the lake is perfect. On the exact site, the former emperor of Japan built his lodge and the former president of Taiwan maintained an official residence called the Hanpilo. A small museum next to the hotel includes photos of famous visitors including... more

This was the second time we stayed in the Lalu, but it'll be the last one. The last time we stayed in a courtyard bungalow, which was wonderful, this time we took a lakeview suite. I would advise to splurge into a 1 day court yard bungalow rather than two days of lake view. Note that the lake is only... more

My wife and I went here for our anniversary (2 yrs ago) and had a wonderfully relaxing time. The view of the lake is just magical as it changes its aura throughout the day. The hotel has a 60m infinity pool right on the lake. Other than the magical lake the other reason for coming here is the amazing spa... more

The Lalu is one of the best resorts in Taiwan right above Sun Moon Lake. It was made famous because of the beautiful wood interior and exterior and has the best view of the lake all around. Service was excellent and the staff was attentive and apologetic for anything they do. Bathrooms were kept very clean inside and outside the... more

My silly boyfriend had booked a weekend trip to Taichung without checking the weather reports before hand. So we ended up staying there admist Typhoon Sinaku. We didn't get to go out much. I was expecting to hike around the area and perhaps to get on a boat to have a look about the lakes. But it actually had tuned... more

Outstanding upscale resort that meets or exceeds international 5* standards for facilities, rooms, food and service. For visitors to Sun Moon Lake, staying at the Lalu is a no brainer. This is the place you want to stay at. The hotel is a destination in itself, you'll have to constantly remind yourself that you are here for the Lake as... more
