Bringing Dates Back to My Hotel?

Taiwan Living in Taiwan

Hello,

I’m curious as if there is any Taiwanese etiquette about bringing home dates to your residing hotel? I’m living at a hotel currently paying month to month and I don’t want to piss off the staff and get kicked out since I will be here for a while.

I also just want to be classy about this, if I am being rude by doing this I’d rather just find other temporary accommodations. I know in the US it is usually not a problem but I wanted to make sure there isn’t an unspoken rule I am breaking in Taiwan.

Thanks!

Hilarious.

Just ask someone at the front desk if you can have guests stay over night, or better yet, tell your guests, no they can’t stay the night. Just send them on their way and get some sleep. You look tired.

How much are you paying a month?

No, there is no etiquette surrounding this in Taiwan unless you’re staying at a cheap AirBNB type place that charges by headcount.

If the property manager hasn’t already informed you of additional charges, I wouldn’t ask.

Just don’t cause problems and no one cares. It’s the Taiwan way.

So, anyone making loud dolphin noises doesn’t get an invite to return?

Depends on the place. At some locations maybe they’ll invite you back at a discounted rate.

Just wanted to add that although there is no etiquette surrounding guests in your room, there is definitely etiquette surrounding sexy noises.

I only bring this up because I’ve experienced ignorant foreign neighbors in long-stay guesthouses who didn’t seem to care about making loud noises during sex, and that got them into a lot of trouble with neighbors/other long-term guests/management.

Just make sure your walls are thick enough.

If it is a two bed room, I would not ask. I would take them back.

Isn’t per hour or perhaps per event more typical?

Not sure if it matters but it is a twin bedroom, 2 beds. But mine was modified where both beds were put together into 1 giant one.

I think you can bring one or two girls any time you want, but you may be charged extra per night if they are staying. (I mean by the hotel, besides what ever you are paying the girl(s))

When confronting ethical dilemmas like this, I ask myself: What would David Lee Roth have done?

Please tell me you didn’t engage in extracurricular activities with your teacher. :open_mouth:

I’ll have to check.

In the meantime, I bet you didn’t know that there is a shrine in Kaohsiung featuring a DLR god? In some circles, he’s known as the god of good times in port cities. :grin:

I’d think that would be something you’d remember pretty vividly. :sweat_smile:
