MIRAMAR GARDEN TAIPEI (02) 8772-8800 83, Civic Boulevard, Sec. 3 www.miramargarden.com.tw

--By Courtney Donovan Smith, translated by Ann Li

Recent years have seen an upsurge in quality accomodations, with a strong emphasis on business amenities and services, and the Miramar Garden is the latest entry. Unlike many Japanese-influenced hotels, the Miramar Garden puts considerable effort and expense in to creating an airy, open feeling with high ceilings. Rooms come with the latest amenities, including satellite TV, 32-inch LCD TVs and individual air conditioning thermo-control. Business travellers will appreciate the wi-fi and broadband internet access, the elegant curved wooden desk, the business centre and the conference rooms. All travellers will appreciate the convenient location, nestled on the corner of the Civic Boulevard and JianGuo expressways. After a long day of business meetings or sightseeing, the Miramar Garden offers quite a few ways to relax and unwind. The Vigor Health Club (see picture) has trainers in their gym and spa therapists to assist guests. For good Western dining, try out the Rain Forest Cafe, relax by the garden at the Garden Terrace or have a drink or two at Lounge 81.
