The day after tomorrow (9th) is New Year’s Eve, and this year’s 7-day Spring Festival holiday is a bit shorter than in previous years. Still, many people are taking advantage of the holiday to go abroad or travel within Taiwan. However, a netizen discovered that the price of hotels in Kenting, the “southern border” of the country, can actually exceed 10,000 NTD during the New Year period, which was quite surprising to them.
his netizen posted on PTT with the title “How much do you think is reasonable for a night at the Kenting Howard Hotel?” They shared a screenshot from a booking website, showing that the room price for the night from February 8th, Chinese New Year’s Eve, to February 9th, New Year’s Eve, was 10,180 yuan, which shockingly said, “Domestic travel is not flourishing, you all think it’s because accommodations are too expensive, then for a hotel of Kenting Howard’s level, how much do you all think would be reasonable, any insights?”
The post surprised many people, “Is 10,180 meant for Terry Gou to stay?” “Hilarious, no wonder people prefer to go abroad,” “Would rather go to Okinawa,” “For 10,000 a night, I might as well buy a plane ticket to Japan,” “10,180 yen would be more like it,” “No wonder everyone’s going abroad! I think I’m only suited for a simple life, too luxurious hotels are not for me, I’d better honestly book a homestay,” “I really don’t understand where this confidence for over 10,000 room prices comes from?” “Save the money for going abroad, the quality is top-notch and more satisfying.”

Some netizens also expressed their acceptable price range, “I won’t stay if it’s over 5000,” “Considering the nearby facilities, I think 3300, really boring,” “4500 is reasonable,” “Renting over 4500 per day is inappropriate,” “At most 5000 for a double room,” “Within 5000 but only considering it if it’s over 3000,” “3000 on weekdays, 4500 on holidays, and 6000 is the limit for New Year’s Eve,” “10,000 a night is okay, but the service and facilities must keep up.”
