5 Hotel Rooms Originn Space – located in Taipei’s vibrant Daodacheng neighbourhood – is a small boutique hotel in a century-old faux baroque-style mansion. The hotel boasts a pleasant coffee shop on the ground floor, where small cultural events are also regularly organised.
There are only 5 rooms, each decorated in different ways and with their own unique vintage furniture. All rooms are thoughtfully curated with a selection of books and music, providing a perfect haven for relaxation and rest after exploring the vibrant streets surrounding the property.
The story of the owner is one of real persistence. Before Originn Space, no one had yet opened a hotel in a historic building in Taipei, leaving the authorities unsure how to handle his application for a license. Individuals in the Cultural Department applauded his efforts, but the Tourism Department initially expressed concerns about fire safety and parking, casting doubt on the possibility of granting a license. This resulted in a three-year process instead of the usual three months.
Today, the Originn Space is full operational and in high demand, often being booked out weeks in advance. We believe Originn Space presents a great opportunity to discover the Taipei from before.
Taipei is one of Asia’s most vistied city destinations. With the iconic Taipei 101 – once the tallest building in the world – dominating the skyline, and other sights such as the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall bringing in visitors and tourist from all over the world, Taipei is a great destination for all kinds of travellers. With an abundance of food and shopping, plus dozens of fascinating historical sights, Taipei is a vibrant capital with a well defined culture and image.

Harvey is a marketing professional and traveled extensively throughout the world. Inspired by his travels, Harvey wanted to open a heritage hostel in Taipei so that visitors could experience the historic parts of the city while meeting other like minded people. Identifying a beautiful art-deco building in the old Daodacheng neighbourhood, in 2015 he set out to create what ultimately became boutique hotel Originn Space.
