Hotels Near National Taipei University (NTPU): Review

The National Taipei University was founded way back in 1949, although it has only been recognized by its current name since 2000, prior to which it was known as the College of Law and Business, National Chung Hsing University. Considered to be one of the best universities in the country, the National Taipei University is the place to be if you want to study law, business and humanities, with some of the best courses and teachers in the country when it comes to these subjects and several others.

Although the main campus of the National Taipei University is located in the Sanxia District, there are other campuses located in the more active Zhongshan District, which is also more popular with the tourists. However, if you want to visit the main campus of the National Taipei University, then there is no shortage of other attractions to keep you busy during your stay. The Sanxia District is actually the second largest in New Taipei City, and as well as a host of restaurants and bars where you can sample local and International cuisine and drinks, there are also temples, such as the Zushi Temple, and museums, such as the History Museum and the Hakka Museum.

If you want a comfortable base for your visit to this region, then checkout the hotels listed below. We like to think that we know what we’re talking about when it comes to accommodation in Taipei, and as far as we are concerned these are the best hotels you will find in the Sanxia District, all of which are within reach of the National Taipei University.
