Fantastic 5.0
This weekday stay with two meals included was a very pleasant experience. The campground is very large, making it comfortable to walk around. Perhaps because it was a weekday and there weren't many people, it didn't feel crowded or noisy. The "welcome afternoon tea" should probably be changed to "welcome refreshments" (since it was just some cookies and barley tea). The children's canoe experience was especially great! Dinner was teppanyaki-style BBQ, and the dishes were very plentiful! The park was especially quiet at night, so I slept very well! The next day's breakfast was also very abundant! I felt it was a wonderful experience! If there were more activities, I might want to participate again next time!

This place is almost the same style and feel as the Villa Like I often go to in Taipei, even the decor is similar, so I wanted to try out the aromatherapy essential oil massage during the promotion to see if there was a difference, and I became a regular after just one try!

Every masseuse was very polite. As soon as we arrived, they prepared hot water for foot baths, which made us feel very warm on a winter night. After the foot bath, we went to the private room to prepare for the massage. It was our first time, so we didn't specify a masseuse, but the two masseuses the store assigned to us were really great at massage. Today, I was massaged by number 81, and my whole body felt really comfortable afterwards. Especially my back and legs, which were really relaxed. When I asked her some questions, she was happy to teach us and tell us, she was really professional. My daughter was massaged by number 18, which was also great. All I can say is that the masseuses in this store are really amazing~~~ Highly recommended to friends who want a massage.

Our new esthetician, Zih-Yi, is a technique instructor with over 12 years of experience in the industry. Wolzpring Spa offers gynecological and weight loss-related treatments that are incredibly comfortable. I highly recommend everyone come and experience it! Be sure to ask for Zih-Yi!

Interesting class to make your own pineapple cake. Recipe makes 10 where 9 will be packed into box and 1 can be enjoyed on the spot. However, baking details were not shared during my session, e.g. to bake how long at what temperature etc. Session includes visiting their museum to learn more on Chinese culture, NT$50 voucher which can be used in their store at Level 1 and a Tea set. At the end, they even have a lucky draw to win their cookies and also capsules to win toys for the kids.

The best hotel for us!
We originally booked this hotel for just one night since we planned to travel to Kaohsiung the day we arrived in Taoyuan. But if we hadn’t already booked our Kaohsiung stay, we definitely would’ve extended for at least two nights! The breakfast buffet was amazing, and we really appreciated the free shuttle service to the HSR. Thank you, CP Hotel — we’ll definitely stay longer next time we visit Taiwan!

I stayed at Kuva Chateau Hotel a long time ago, and this was my return visit. The hotel was very thoughtful and upgraded us to the "Diplomat Suite." The room was large and clean, and because it was on the 15th floor, the view was expansive and comfortable. It's close to parks, a night market (within 5 minutes), and the MRT (a 10-minute walk to A21 Huanbei Station). Overall, the value for money is quite good. Although the furniture and equipment show signs of age, it didn't affect my stay experience at all!
There's a Starbucks and a wine cellar in the lobby. The pool has divided time slots, with four slots, each capped at 25 people; this is great as it prevents overcrowding. Across from the hotel is Guangming Park, with lots of playground equipment; it's perfect for letting kids run around and burn off energy. I highly recommend it for families traveling and friends visiting Zhongli Night Market.
