As autumn and winter approach, it’s once again the perfect season to enjoy a relaxing soak in a hot spring. Taiwan is a blessed country, with distinctive hot springs across the island just waiting to be experienced. Below are 8 of the most worthwhile hot spring accommodations around Taiwan that you can start planning to visit and unwind in.

● Miaoli | Tai’an Guanzhi Hot Spring Hotel

The Tai’an Guanzhi Hot Spring Hotel is located in Jingshui Village, Tai’an Township, at an altitude of nearly 500 meters, embraced by clouds, mountain mist, and streams, blending into the river valley and forest. The crisscrossing rock plates and tree roots are set amid Taiwan’s diverse native forests, with distinct seasonal changes—especially noticeable in autumn and winter. The exterior of the hotel retains exposed concrete walls and rough architectural finishes, where areas exposed to moisture naturally grow moss. Over time, the entire building takes on the elegant ambiance of a European castle.

● Nantou | Yunpin Hotel
Yunpin Hotel combines the natural beauty of Sun Moon Lake as its unique advantage. Each lake-view room in the hotel is meticulously designed with floor-to-ceiling windows and viewing platforms, allowing guests to take in the outdoor lake scenery while staying indoors.
● Beitou | Kaga House

Kaga House, which has a century-long history in Japan and has been ranked No. 1 in the “Experts’ Choice Top 100 Japanese Hotels and Inns” for 30 consecutive years, is highly regarded by its guests for its quality. Its exterior features traditional Japanese sukiya-style architecture, and the interior displays thousands of craft pieces from Japan, resembling a magnificent art gallery.
