Tucked away in a corner of the city stands a building more than a century old, quietly carrying generations of memories. In 2022, an experienced designer and a team of skilled craftspeople began an extensive restoration. After three years of careful work, the building reopened as a distinctive place to stay.
The restoration preserves the building’s original structure and character while adding modern comforts. Premium Taiwanese cypress is used throughout—from ceilings and floors to wall panels and windowsills. Its gentle woody fragrance welcomes guests into a quiet, warm atmosphere.
The central courtyard is the heart of the building. A native Taiwanese chinaberry tree rises through the glass roof, spreading its canopy above the space and welcoming visiting birds. Sunlight filters through the leaves onto century-old brickwork and moss, bringing nature and architecture together.
Within this century-old building, historic charm meets modern facilities and thoughtful hospitality. Each guest room is furnished with care, with comfortable bedding selected to the standards of a premium hotel for a restful stay.
More than a place to sleep, Villa invites you to experience a dialogue with the past. Every wooden surface, wall and window reflects the care of earlier craftspeople. Wander the corridors, feel the textures of the timber, or sit beneath the courtyard tree listening to birdsong and the breeze. The building’s revival honors its history while welcoming new memories.
