Millennium & Copthorne has opened its first hotel in Taiwan: the Millennium Vee Hotel Taichung. Situated in the heart of Taichung, Taiwan’s third-largest city, the new property offers 237 guest rooms, multiple flexible meeting spaces, a rooftop sky bar, two restaurants, a ballroom and a fitness center.
According to Lim Boon Kwee, M&C’s senior vice president for Asia, “The launch of Millennium Vee Taichung is a milestone for M&C. It marks the group’s first M&C-branded property in Taiwan, and will also see a strengthening of our position as a leading hotelier in Taiwan’s 5-star hospitality sector.” The group already has experience in the market through its operation of the Grand Hyatt Taipei.
The Millennium Vee Hotel Taichung is designed to serve both business and leisure travelers. Its range of meeting rooms and event spaces can accommodate corporate conferences, social gatherings and weddings, while the ballroom provides a more formal venue for large-scale occasions. Dining options include two on-site restaurants serving local and international cuisine, and a rooftop sky bar offers panoramic views of the city—an attractive feature for evening guests and visitors seeking a scenic spot for drinks and light fares.
Guest rooms are arranged to meet contemporary expectations for comfort and convenience, featuring modern amenities and thoughtful layouts. The fitness center adds value for travelers wishing to maintain their exercise routines, while communal areas and public spaces are intended to foster a welcoming atmosphere for guests and visitors alike.
Opening a branded property in Taichung signals Millennium & Copthorne’s intent to expand its presence in Taiwan’s upscale hotel market. Taichung’s central location and growing appeal as a cultural and commercial hub make it a strategic choice for the brand’s first direct foothold in the country. With existing management experience from properties such as the Grand Hyatt Taipei, the company is positioned to build on local knowledge and deliver a consistent level of service across its Taiwanese operations.
The hotel’s combination of event facilities, dining venues and leisure amenities targets a diverse clientele, from business delegates attending conferences to tourists exploring Taichung’s attractions. By offering versatile meeting spaces alongside culinary and nightlife options—such as the rooftop sky bar—the property aims to be a destination for both daytime functions and evening social activities.
Millennium Vee Hotel Taichung represents a step in Millennium & Copthorne’s broader regional growth strategy. Establishing an M&C-branded hotel in Taiwan allows the group to strengthen brand recognition and tap into the island’s tourism and business travel markets. As the group continues to develop and operate properties in the region, this opening underscores its commitment to expanding high-quality hospitality offerings in key Asian cities.
