The hubby and I will have our second anniversary soon and i want to surprise him with a nice get away on Saturday night week.
Don’t wanna travel too far (1 hour at most)
Want something pretty nice but not OTT (@ 5000nt)
Must have western food ( I know I know…)
Can anyone help please? 
We did nothing last year and I would like it to be special. :lovestruck:
One hour doesn’t give you that many options. You could try the Howard Hotel right at Green Bay on the North Coast. You’re near the beach and can drive along the coast and enjoy the scenary. That’s nice and romantic and there are lots of cafe’s now overlooking the ocean. You could even think about a short boat trip to Keelung or Turtle Island.
If you can drive a little further try Hola at Wuling Farm. It’s a very nice new hotel with a good western buffet. At 2000 metres or so the weather is cool, the vegetation is temperate and your western husband will feel he’s back at home.
The Sunrise at Taian in Miaoli County takes about 2 hours to drive to but is a lovely hotspring hotel. Really nice facilities. Bedrooms have a chic modern Japanese design and have private hotspring tubs done in marble. Excellent views across the valley. Restaurant has japanese and western food. The area is lovely too. Mountainous and not very developed.
