beacon hotel
agoda: 261.30SGD for classical double room included 5% hotel tax (is this the final price? i never book agoda before. i see booking.com got reflect price inclusive of 5 % VAT, 10 % service charge)

ezfly and beacon direct: 6300NT = 267.12SGD for 雅緻客房 (don't know in english is what type of room but is smaller than classical, conversion by typing into google chrome main search bar)

hotels.com, hotelclub.com travelking, expedia don't have this hotel

U click until the page before u see payment confirm then u see if the price is right for u lor.

ya, for agoda at the page, left side is key in payment details including card, the right side is
Booking SummaryBooking Conditions
Classical Double (per night) SGD 124.43
(2 nights for SGD 248.85)
Breakfast Included
Final Price (for 2 nights) SGD 261.30
Hotel tax 5% included

but cause booking.com got reflect 2 taxes. so in case is ask me pay directly at hotel extra tax etc. so would like to confirm with the seasoned travelers am i interpreting correctly, since was told agoda should not be cheaper. :s11:

by the way, the prices quoted earlier are all weekend prices. saturday two nights stay.

hey thanks a lot! because of this, manage to find out what is the problem.
the pdf i have, header was "confirmation & itinerary", only the logo of scoot with image and color. all others are words - booking reference, date, contact details, check in baggage allowance, the usual, and the end got my payment details too. the arrive at is put "taipei" only. logged in their site with my booking reference also didn't manage to find.

i see your image i go check with the other person -_- the pdf i have is not scoot email send one. is booked that time, save file as pdf. went back email to dig back the real itinerary. :s22:

shalome, ur itinerary starts very early, like going to work like that. lol...

:s13: i dont know the journey how long ma. actually i got planned danshui, raohe, shilin, jay chou's restaurant initially. but all taken out cos doesn't seem to have time to go. probably the above itinerary also just a gauge, like quite rush, might not strictly follow. maybe one day too tired i sleep until late lol

Ur planning not say lousy, just needs to be realistically put into place and experimented by yourself. Google ard for time estimates, then you will also see how far is starting and ending point etc. i do see a big ? Cloud over you, go explore, Taipei city is not as "Cold" as Singapore. Ask around, you will realized like Singapore, many are tourists in town.
