Ever wondered where to stay before visiting Alishan? Chiayi Holiday Inn Express might surprise you — it’s affordable, modern, and just a short ride from the Alishan Forest Railway.
When my partner and I set out from Taichung to explore Alishan, Chiayi felt like the perfect overnight stop before heading into the mountains. That’s how we ended up at the Holiday Inn Express Chiayi — my first time experiencing a “Holiday Inn Express” (did you know it’s a business-style hotel with just the essentials? I didn’t either!).
In this post, I’ll show you what the rooms really look like (yes, I’ve got photos!), why it worked for our trip, and what’s nearby if you’re exploring Chiayi.
