LA LOCANDA Your Home in Formosa

In a quiet corner of the city, a century-old building stands still, witnessing the passage of time and carrying countless memories of the past.
In 2022, an experienced designer led a team of skilled artisans to restore this house of time. After three years of meticulous effort, it has been revitalized as a uniquely styled boutique hotel.

This historic structure has not only retained its original framework and charm but has also been enhanced with modern comforts.
During the restoration process, premium Taiwanese hinoki wood was extensively used—from the ceiling, flooring, and wall panels to even the windowsills—infusing the space with a distinctive cypress fragrance.
Stepping into the hotel, one is immediately enveloped by this warm, woody aroma, as if engaging in a dialogue with time, bringing a sense of calm and tranquility.

At the heart of the hotel lies a breathtaking atrium.
A native Taiwanese Chinaberry tree grows through the glass roof, its lush green canopy providing natural shade and a sanctuary for birds to rest and play. Sunlight filters through the leaves, casting gentle beams onto the century-old brick walls, where moss naturally thrives, creating a harmonious blend of resilience and architectural serenity.

Within this historic building, one not only experiences the richness of history but also enjoys the finest modern amenities and attentive service.
The carefully selected furnishings exude elegance and comfort, and each bed meets five-star hotel standards, ensuring travelers a restful and luxurious retreat within this fusion of past and present.

This place is more than just a place to stay—it is a journey through history.
Every piece of wood, every wall, and every window bears the craftsmanship and warmth of the past.
Whether strolling through the corridors and feeling the texture of the wood or sitting in the atrium, listening to the rustling leaves and birdsong, every moment here is enchanting.
The rebirth of this century-old building is a tribute to history and a vision for the future. If you seek an extraordinary journey, this is where you can truly embrace the beauty of time and immerse yourself in an atmosphere of warmth and nostalgia.
