Nova Taipé Onsens

I came to the public bath on a weekday and it's so quiet and nice. On the day I visited, only Taiwanese people were in the baths. The staff are very friendly... The receptionists speak excellent English, and when I wasn't sure where to go in the bath area, a staff member came over and used a translator to guide me. They were truly kind. I was a bit worried after reading other reviews, but it was really great. For those using the public bath, just show your Klook voucher at reception, get your key, go down the stairs, and the women's bath is on the left and the men's bath is on the right (written in Korean). You can enter accordingly. Like a Korean sauna, you put your shoes in the locker corresponding to your key number, come in, undress in a locker, put on a gown and a hair cap, then come to the public bath area, shower, and then enter the bath. They asked us to remove our makeup before entering if we were wearing any! (Let's be polite Koreans and follow this rule, haha.) But honestly, there's no need to wear makeup when going to a hot spring. Cell phones are prohibited inside the bath! You can use them in the resting area. And the water is super soft, it feels like it's good for your skin.

Safety: The overall dim lighting indeed creates a high-end hotel atmosphere, but because there are always stairs, there is a potential hidden danger. Experience: The public hot spring area has a high-temperature pool, a medium-temperature pool, a cold-water pool, a spa pool, a steam room, a sauna, and lounge chairs (comfortable). The overall feeling is good, each pool is large, and there are also water dispensers available for making tea or coffee.

September 5, 2026. This is a family-style hot spring inn, so it's not recommended for those with high expectations! The hot spring water is very comfortable and leaves your skin feeling smooth. Basic amenities are provided. The couple's set meal was delicious and very filling. There aren't many parking spaces directly in front, but there are parking spots available nearby.

One of the highlights of my Taiwan trip was visiting Wulai. It’s a beautiful spot and perfect for anyone looking for a quick escape from city life. The hot spring experience was especially memorable, as it was my first time trying an onsen. The facilities were excellent, and it was nice to see locals in the bathhouse who seemed to already know each other, it gave the place a warm, community feel. Although none of the staff were proficient in English, they still made sure I was well taken care of. What made the experience even better was the free meal after the bath and the complimentary shuttle back to the town proper. Overall, it was a relaxing and worthwhile experience, and I would definitely come back on my next visit to Taiwan.

We made a last-minute decision to visit that day. After calling to confirm availability, we smoothly boarded the shuttle, and everything went perfectly. We chose the Yinglin room, and the Atayal tribal house theme was absolutely stunning; it was even more beautiful in person than in the photos. The staff on-site meticulously explained all the important details, and the front desk personnel were very professional and friendly. The entire experience was excellent. Afterward, we could enjoy tea and snacks, then head to the bookstore to stretch. There's also the Wulai Old Street to explore. Highly recommended!

Great private onsen experience, the room was spacious with amazing view. only drawback is the distance from the town, however a private shuttle can be arranged (100NT one way).

This was our first time visiting the Ban-gu Hot Spring Hotel in Osaka. We first walked the Three-Ring Trail, saw the national-level Ban-gu Sacred Tree, and then after a simple meal, we went to a private hot spring room for a soak. The hot springs at Ban-gu made our skin feel wonderfully smooth. We'll definitely come back to enjoy the hot springs and explore again when we have the chance! 👍

A very cute orange cat greeted us at the entrance. The lobby and room were quite clean, and the hot spring tub was also very clean. Although the room layout was a bit smaller and different from the photos, the front desk gave us a room facing the river, which allowed us to soak in the tub with the window open, and it felt very comfortable. Even though the height of the tub meant we could only see the sky and mountain peaks while sitting in it, it was still charming enough! However, the toilet only had a beaded curtain instead of a door, which was a bit unusual. The TV signal was a bit choppy; we had hoped to watch YouTube videos while soaking, but it got stuck on the same screen, and restarting the TV didn't help, which was a bit disappointing.

我选择了更贵的选项，房间里有一张床。设施和水都很好，我玩得很开心。松庐距离老街大约有20英里的上坡路，所以有些人可能需要租车才能到达。
