Mango53 Inn is a brand new hostel grand opening in 2012 at down town Taipei. It's only 1-minute walk or 75 meters from MRT Longshan Temple Station, 1 station away from Ximending and 2 stations away from Taipei Main Station. It's also perfectly 5-minute walk or one block away from Wanhua Train Station, the shortest route and soonest/cheapest way to Jiu-fen the famous must-go hillside village.
The ideal location of our hostel in Wanhua district, or Monga the cradle of Taipei city, offers our guests the opportunity to experience the authentic Taipei and gives a zest to the adventure. Within 10 minutes' walk lies the 270-years-old Longshan Temple and other two exquisite small temples, the shooting backdrop of 'Monga' the film. Adjacent to Longshan Temple are Huaxi Street night market, once the famous snake street, and Herbal Street. If you are a gourmet, then you can not miss the local delicacy such as Taiwanese noodles, rice congee with meat, and crispy black-pepper stove-baked Taiwanese hamburger!
What's more, the hostel is surrounded by 24-hrs operating convenience store, bakery, food stand, and even 24-hrs operating Carrefour.
Never miss out Taipei city night life. The huzzle-buzzle recreation center Xiemending is just one MRT station or 15 minutes' walk away. You can find daily live music shows or jams at Riverside Live House and Music Cafe. Out-door bars and restaurants around The Red House offer an exotic flavor and the best place to hang out.
We tentatively preserve the red-brick town house and its nostalgic interior design to invite our guests to experience the authentic Taipei.

This was my first time to Taiwan and I was so Lucky to find Mango 53 Inn.
The staff was very friendly and so helpful. It is very close to the train station which was an extra bonus. I enjoyed hanging out with other travelers in the upstair lounge area with free coffee and tea with the nice sofas and big screen TV.
I never imagined a Hostel could be this nice. Mango 53 Inn is the BEST !
