Beitou : Shan Yue Hot Spring Resort - Public Hot Spring Bath Ticket

recently had the pleasure of visiting this hot spring in Taiwan, and it was absolutely worth it! The facility features three large hot spring pool, each offering different temperatures, along with one refreshing cold pool. This variety allowed for a truly customizable experience. The ambiance was fantastic; it was incredibly relaxing and serene. I visited on a Saturday, but surprisingly, the place wasn’t too crowded, which made it even more enjoyable. Overall, my experience at this hot spring was wonderful. If you're looking for a peaceful escape, I highly recommend this spot!

A rainy day in early October is a bit chilly, perfect for a hot spring experience. It's conveniently located near Xinbeitou MRT station. The indoor space is reasonably large, with one hot spring and one cold spring pool. The sauna temperature is well-controlled, and the cold room is a novel first-time experience. The outdoor pool temperature is comfortable, and there are wooden lounge chairs for relaxation. Overall, at a price of $420, the value for money is quite good!

There are large crowds and lines during peak season. The rooftop open-air nude bath is very comfortable, and there are lounge chairs for relaxing, but unfortunately, the water temperature is too hot. It is recommended to lower it a bit.

Inside, there's a hot pool and a cold pool. Up the steps, there's a semi-outdoor pool. It's very cold today at only 11 to 13 degrees Celsius. When I went at noon, I was the only one there. When I left at 2 PM, there were only three customers in total. It's comfortable and relaxing to soak when there are few people. The shower facilities have three shower heads, and the others are rain showers. The problem is that all three shower heads didn't have hot water today. Since I didn't need to wash my hair there, it wasn't convenient to use the rain showers. The temperature of the semi-outdoor pool is higher, which I thought was pretty good. There are also deck chairs nearby, all in Thai style. The indoor pool has a strange smell, not quite like sulfur, maybe the smell of old wood. The advantage is that there are very few people on weekdays, so it was still a pleasant time.

It’s near Xinbeitou Station. At reception, they’ll tell you where to put your shoes and hand you a locker key on a bracelet. Inside the locker are large and small towels. You’re expected to clean yourself thoroughly—not just rinse—before entering the pool. Free shampoo and body wash are provided, along with shared slippers. The hot spring requires full nudity; you may use a small towel to cover yourself, but it should be placed on your head or poolside once you enter. The water is comfortably hot, though it may take some adjustment. For safety, limit each soak to 15 minutes, then rest before re-entering. The pool is small—at the time, there were 5–7 guests sharing it, which felt manageable. Keep voices low. Upstairs is a hotter pool with natural light and a transparent roof, suitable for foot soaking. Afterward, rinse off and get dressed. Free tea is available, with hot/cold water dispensers. Stay hydrated. Return the locker key at reception. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Location: Very convenient, within walking distance of the MRT station. Facilities: A bit old; it feels like the pipes and faucets are in need of updates and maintenance. Staff: Friendly and clear with their explanations.

The overall feeling is comfortable. There are indoor and outdoor hot spring pools, sauna rooms, cold rooms, etc., but the place is a bit old and the area is relatively small. The service staff auntie explained things very clearly, but her attitude was a bit impatient.

It's close to the MRT station. Towels are provided. Lockers are free. Drinking water is also available. The pools are clean and the water is hot. It's acceptable.

An additional 80 yuan is charged for on-site purchases in winter, which is a bit inconvenient. It would be better if there were two separate prices.

It is very close to Xinbeitou MRT Station. I used the public bath, and you can just think of it as a local neighborhood bathhouse with hot spring water. When you show your QR code at the lobby, they give you a key, a large towel, and a small towel. Go up to the 3rd floor, put your shoes in the shoe locker, go inside, put your clothes away, grab your towels, and there are personal storage shelves inside. There is also an outdoor bath on the rooftop, so be sure to check that out as well~
