New Taipei Onsen

Safety: The overall dim lighting certainly creates a high-end hotel atmosphere, but because there are always stairs, it does pose a potential hazard. Experience: The public hot spring area features a high-temperature pool, a medium-temperature pool, a cold-water pool, a spa pool, a steam room, a sauna, and comfortable lounge chairs. The overall experience is quite good, with each pool being very spacious. Water dispensers are also 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.

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).

Första gången vi besökte Osaka-gen Hot Spring Hotel gick vi först den tre kilometer långa vandringsleden, såg det nationella Bangan-heliga trädet, åt en enkel måltid och gick sedan till ett privat badrum för att bada i källan. Vattnet i Osaka-gen kändes fantastiskt och gjorde huden len. Vi kommer definitivt tillbaka för att bada och promenera igen om vi får chansen! 👍

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.

Jag valde det dyrare alternativet som inkluderar en säng på rummet. Faciliteterna och vattnet är båda bra och jag hade en fantastisk tid. SongLu ligger cirka 32 km uppför från Old Street, så vissa kanske vill hyra en bil för att komma dit.

The double hot spring room is quite spacious and even has a waterproof storage cabinet, which is very thoughtful for items you don't want to get wet. Soaking in a hot spring can get quite warm, but the room here has air conditioning, making the overall experience very comfortable. Outside, there's a public area with hair dryers and cotton swabs available. Overall, I feel it offers great value.

The facilities, though a bit older, are meticulously cleaned and don't appear worn out. The view is excellent, offering a distant sight of Jinshan and even the ocean. In addition to soaking in the hot springs and relaxing, you can also enjoy a cup of tea. The entire experience is incredibly stress-relieving and pleasant.
