So without further hesitation, let’s take a look at the transparent criteria of what makes Puli Center Center stand out.
1. Locally managed par excellence
We are proud to announce that this 5 star hostel is locally managed by passionate travelers from Taiwan. Established by two independent crew members working in the field of theatre arts, they came up with a hostel name to best reflect the geographic center of Taiwan; Center Center!
Furthermore, the name implies the possibility for travelers to find their own central positions in life. Deep, right?
For Ming and Ting, the happy-go-lucky managers at Puli Center Center hostel, it is important for them to introduce all things Taiwanese to their guests.
This includes the delicious local dishes and the unique culture. Keep your eyes peeled and you might see one of their cool videos around the hostel and Natoung Puli.
2. Artsy atmosphere and poetry
It has to be noted that the most intriguing part of this hostel’s design, is the name; ‘Center Center’.
At first glance you think it is a typo, right?
You’d be wrong! In fact, the genius minds behind this name put a lot of thought into it. Center Center is a term often used within performing arts, referring to the position on the central stage.
The passion behind the meaning of the name is evident; have a read of this piece of their short poem if you don’t believe us:
Some say that the essence of traveling is moving.
In fact, moving is a phenomenon of traveling.
The nature of traveling, is defining.
Alongside the well-designed name, the Center Center hostel offers a relaxing atmosphere in a traditional-style building.
Upon arrival you will be greeted by a space specifically designed for travelers, by travelers.
The hostel is delightfully decorated and refurnished and the mixed dorms provide perfect opportunity to mingle with other like-minded folk.
