The shortcut has stairs, so it might be difficult if you have luggage, but I usually used it when moving around and it was fine. The room felt a bit cramped with two 24-inch suitcases, so if I go next time, I think I'll bring one small suitcase or just a backpack and bring light luggage. On the other hand, the bathtub was wide enough for two people to fit in, and it was very clean because the interior was newly done, and the water flowed out quickly so it filled up quickly, which was satisfying. Breakfast was not a buffet, but it was clean and I ate very well. The staff were all friendly, so I would like to visit again next time.

Return visit after two years. As far as I recall, everything is the same except the baths do look two years older and the cold bath is no longer as cold. It used to be ~10 degrees (iirc) but it is now (estimated) 20-25 degrees (the thermometer has been removed). If you like being alone, I was the only customer past 6pm on a weekday. For the price, it is worth coming here for your first hot spring experience in Beitou but I’ll probably try a new hot spring for my next visit in the future. Good experience (:

Although I am not very talented in music, the teacher still taught me, and I am really happy! The experience of ancient costumes is also very good, I recommend everyone to experience it!

The hotel has beautiful facilities and a great view of the Tamsui River and Guanyin Mountain. It is better to take photos when the weather is good. There is a shuttle bus only on weekends. You need to make an appointment with the hotel on weekdays.

It was my first time to experience the hot spring room. Since the hotel is new, the overall facilities are OK. The room in the hot spring room is also quite large, but the shower space is a bit small, and the hot spring pool is also small, which is a pity.

The breakfast is rich and delicious. The location allows you to see the sunset, especially at the outdoor swimming pool on the fifth floor. The mouth of the Tamsui River is right in front of you. It's so beautiful!
