Brio Hotel
Dark, gallery-cool aesthetic with considered material choices. Think matte surfaces, controlled lighting, and objects that feel deliberately selected rather than standard issue. Not loud about it — the vibe is more introverted than flashy.
Book direct through the hotel website to access the gourmet bar and midnight snack bar (some packages restrict this)
Why It Matters
Michelin Guide Selected 2026. One of the closest hotels to Central Park MRT station in Kaohsiung. The complimentary snack bar runs three separate sessions daily — morning ice cream, afternoon dessert bar, and a late-night snack spread — which is genuinely rare at this price point. Rooms come with branded European amenities and soundproofed windows.
Brio is a design-forward boutique hotel in Kaohsiung's Xinxing District, sitting directly across from Central Park with the MRT a literal one-minute walk away. Michelin Guide-selected for 2026, it punches well above its price point with a rooftop bistro and bar, a multi-session complimentary snack bar running from morning ice cream through late-night bites, and rooms kitted out with Villeroy & Boch cups, Sealy mattresses, and Duralex crystal glasses. The interior concept was shaped by a multinational design team spanning Taiwan, New York, and beyond — the result reads like a gallery space you actually sleep in.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Aurora Classic City View Quad
From TWD10,786 / nightThe family or group option — two proper king beds, French windows onto the city, and 32.4 sqm to share between four. It's not huge for four adults, but it works and is among the more affordable multi-bed city-view options in central Kaohsiung. Full amenity kit included.
2x King (180 x 200 cm each) · 32.4 sqm
Bliss Elite City View Double
From TWD7,932 / nightHere's where the views kick in. Floor-to-ceiling French windows open the room up to the Kaohsiung cityscape. The king bed runs 220 cm wide. Yoga mat included. Same European-brand amenity package, plus the better light and outlook make this a noticeably different feel from the building-facing rooms.
King (220 x 200 cm) · 26.2 sqm
Glow Superior Deluxe King
From TWD6,912 / nightA step up from the entry Queen, with a wider king bed and a touch more floor space. Still faces the building rather than the city, but the bump to 22.5 sqm makes the room feel more workable. Same European amenity lineup throughout.
King (180 x 200 cm) · 22.5 sqm
Muse Elite City View Twin
From TWD7,932 / nightTwin version of the city view tier, same 26.2 sqm footprint and French window setup as the Bliss Elite. Good option for two people who want separate beds and a proper city outlook — rare combination at this price in Kaohsiung.
Twin (2x 110 x 200 cm) · 26.2 sqm
Noir Elite Double / Twin
From TWD7,116 / nightFlexible room that converts between twin configuration and a wide king setup (220 cm across). Useful for two friends traveling together who don't want to share a bed, or a couple who wants something more generous. Still building-facing, but the extra floor space at 25 sqm gives it more breathing room.
Twin (2x 110 x 200 cm) or King (220 x 200 cm) · 25 sqm
Renew Prestige King
From TWD9,359 / nightThe top-of-house room. French windows, 34.2 sqm, and the one room type at Brio that comes with a proper luxury bathtub. Weight scale, Keramag toilet, Villeroy & Boch cups, Duralex crystal glass, Panasonic N98 dryer, yoga mat — it's the full kit. Guests who received an upgrade to this category (e.g. birthdays) frequently call it out as a standout stay.
King (180 x 200 cm) · 34.2 sqm
Shadow Light Exquisite Queen
From TWD6,708 / nightEntry-level room facing the building rather than the street. Compact at 18.5 sqm — honest about that. But the design details hold up: Keramag toilet, Sealy mattress, Villeroy & Boch cups. No baby cot possible due to space. Gets the complimentary snack bar access.
