Welcome to the Tango universe - a wonderful place to relax and unwind...

The Tango Group, one of Taiwan’s best boutique-hotel chains, offers state-of-the-art accommodation in the heart of Taipei. As an excellent alternative to large hotels, all their properties have amazing location, easy access to facilities, and the highest level of convenience. 

Fashion Studio Magazine spent two nights at Tango FuHsing in November 2015. Our room (1107 - Spa Room) was spacious and well-design. Comfortable bed and modern bathroom with all necessary amenities - bathrobes, hairdryer, complimentary toiletries - made our stay pleasant and relaxing.

We were especially impressed with the outstanding customer service and advanced technology solutions. 


"Jia Ton Interior Design Co. Ltd., led by Gary Chou, has been put in charge of designing part of the hotel, and the Wei Hong International Co. renovators have been the creators of the reception of this modern styled establishment, which uses the compact mineral KRION® from the PORCELANOSA Group to make the most of the backlit low relief." - krion.es

THE URBAN GETAWAY

Located in the heart of Taipei, close to Nanjing Fuxing (南京復興) station, Tango FuHsing provides relief from the fast-paced hustle and bustle of the city.

The Tango offers elegant rooms with Contessa chair, Kohler and Hansgrohe bath units, Micro-bubble Jacuzzi, SONY flat panel TV, and Pioneer stereo system. The hotel provides everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay.

Stylish guest rooms, all of which include free wireless internet as well as a fully stocked minibar and in-room coffee machine, are modern and designed with an excellent attention to detail. They will satisfy the needs of the most demanding travellers.

During our stay, we had the pleasure to meet and interview Mr Russell Chang, Tango FuHsing Assistant Manager, who described the hotel's style and atmosphere in a very accurate way:

"Our hotel aims to provide an escape from the busy life for both business and leisure traveller. By providing all the luxury amenities and high-tech gadgets inside the room, we managed to create a relaxing and comfortable environment allowing our guests to unwind and recharge their batteries before another hectic day in the city".

"Equipped with wireless internet access, each of Tango's rooms connects you to the whole world with a click of the mouse. Upon entering the exquisite room, guests can find great amenities like LCD TV, stereo, jacuzzi, and micro toilet. All conveniently connected to a multi-function remote control." - Insider TV




Time to Relax...

Beautiful bathroom in room 1107 



Spa-inspired bathroom is definitely one of the best features of the room. It is not only very bright and spacious, but also features a separate shower and a jacuzzi bathtub where you can relax and rejuvenate at the end of the day. 

The private bathroom comes with Philips hairdryer, complimentary Tango toiletries, and a Japanese TOTO electrical toilet. Micro-bubble jacuzzi offers three different control modes - our favourite was the one with colour changing lights. So relaxing!

ABOUT TAIPEI

Modern, vibrant and super interesting - those three words perfectly describe Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, best known for the landmark Taipei 101 skyscraper officially classified as the world's tallest in 2004 (and remained such until the opening of Burj Khalifa in Dubai in 2010).

Taipei offers a lot of shopping opportunities - from night markets to high-end designer stores and exclusive department malls. You will be spoilt for choice when it comes to clothes, shoes, and accessories.

Shilling Night Market, located in the Shilin District of Taipei, is often considered to be the largest and most famous night market in the city. You can find everything here: from food vendors and small restaurants to numerous street stalls and trendy boutiques selling clothes and accessories. It's a fun place to hang out with friends in the evening! To read more about the market, please click here.
