First Hotel

What First Hotel does

First Hotel Taipei (第一大飯店) is a privately held, single-property traditional hotel operating at 63 Nanjing East Road Sec. 2, Zhongshan District, in Taipei's central business district. The property offers 176 guest rooms in two configurations — Single Bed Suites (55 sqm, 180×200cm king bed) and Twin Beds Suites (35 sqm, two 110×200cm twin beds) — equipped with LCD TV, refrigerator, free Wi-Fi, thermostat-controlled air conditioning, bathtub and shower, and standard bathroom amenities. The hotel sits within a 5-minute walk of MRT Songjiang-Nanjing Station Exit 8, at the intersection of Nanjing East Road and Jilin Road, with multiple public bus routes and a UBIKE station immediately outside.

The revenue model is direct-to-consumer hospitality, with room rental as the primary stream, supplemented by breakfast service at the on-site B1 Mecin's Restaurant (daily 7:00–10:00 AM with locally-sourced ingredients), fitness center access, a business center (computers, fax, Wi-Fi — usage-fee based), meeting rooms in small/medium/large configurations with audio and projection equipment, and a gift/art shop selling Taiwanese souvenirs. The hotel accepts Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Android Pay, UnionPay, Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; rooms are booked through the official website, which is available in six languages (Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian).

The customer base is segmented horizontally into business travelers (primary, drawn by CBD location and meeting facilities) and leisure travelers (secondary, drawn by central Taipei access and breakfast service). The hotel is privately held with no disclosed parent, no funding rounds, no public listing, no M&A history, no management team bios, and no founding date in the source data — representing a significant ownership and corporate-history data gap. Check-in is 3:00 PM, check-out is 12:00 noon, and the property is currently operating.
