Taichung Hotels with Pools

Whenever I'm on a business trip to Taichung, I always stay here. I used to stay at the Howard Plaza Hotel next door, but ever since I discovered this place, there's been no looking back. I love that they have a sauna, and the rooms are spacious, quiet, with a minimalist design, and an open view. The breakfast buffet is also quite good. Once, I chatted with a guest in the elevator who turned out to be a local resident. He uses this hotel as his 'Club House,' coming here for the gym, sauna, and swimming pool – it seems like a great option for him too.

I wrote in my initial booking that this was an Anniversary trip, I was quite surprised that the hotel did not do nor acknowledge such things and that quite bothered me. First impressions do lasts and I also had an incident in their restaurant that serves buffet, where there was a insect (almost cockroach like) in the soup which was honestly very shocking for a 5 star restaurant but the recovery of how they handled was not great and no follow up was done. Overall, I wasn’t as happy staying here as I thought I would. But I won’t definitely be coming back.

Upon check-in, when asked the reason for our stay, I casually mentioned we were celebrating our 100th day together. They genuinely took note and arranged related services. The sense of privacy and exclusive hospitality was exceptional, truly living up to the reputation of Japan's top Hoshino Resorts group. I particularly loved the design of the entire garden and the relaxation pavilions by the pool, as well as the hot springs. Whether it was the expansive window views from the room, the scenery from the private onsen, the women's public bath, or the dining area, every single spot, with its flowers, plants, and water birds, was meticulously designed. Both dinner and breakfast were also thoughtfully prepared and presented using local ingredients. Our 2-day, 1-night stay left us feeling incredibly touched and joyful, both physically and mentally. It felt like we were taken care of in every possible way. Every moment was filled with deep appreciation. I highly recommend staying here.

The location of this hotel is excellent, and the staff were consistently friendly, polite, and genuinely tried to help whenever we needed anything. Unfortunately, the hotel itself has some significant issues. Our room had a strong mould smell that was impossible to ignore. This isn’t something that can be solved with air freshener or a quick spray by housekeeping—it points to a deeper moisture problem that requires a proper investment in repairs. Until that is addressed, it seriously affects the comfort of the stay. The food was also disappointing and well below what we expected. We also tried to book a massage during our stay, but every time we went down, there was no one there. The counter staff seemed unsure of what was happening, which made the experience feel disorganized. I want to emphasize that the staff did their best and were always courteous. The problems seem to be with the property and its management rather than the employees. With its excellent location, this hotel has a lot of potential, but it needs to address the mould issue properly and improve some of its facilities and services.

Best nature vibe hotel in Taichong with indoor and outdoor onsen. There's a free mini bus from Taichong HSR station to Hotel at 1F Exit #6 platform 8-10 as hotel schedule such a convenient travel. I'm enjoy with private hot spring bath tub in room. Strongly recommend for your vacation.

The overall experience of staying this time was good, the hotel was conveniently located and the surrounding life function was good. The counter staff is friendly and check-in and check-out are very efficient. The room is clean and tidy, the space is enough, and the quality of sleep is good. If you come back to this area later, you will consider staying again.

The location is not too remote, the service is not bad, the child missed the important object to retrieve it the next day, the cleaning sister is also willing to take it to the garbage room to retrieve it, the child is very happy, there are two public hot spring pools, one is about 30 degrees, the other is about 42 degrees, I feel that one is too hot and the other is too cold, But the hot spring in the room is very good and overall satisfaction.

The room lacked a luggage rack, the room was in a good environment, and it was very spacious and comfortable. The bathtub is large, but there is a little crack. The sanitary ware is exquisite. Staying feels good, the outdoor bath facilities are first-class for taking pictures. Only the hotel does not have transportation facilities, if there is a car to pick up and drop off to the nearby food old street! Because this hotel is relatively remote in the forest, it can be reached low, do not drive by yourself, or chartered car can not be reached. Breakfast in the hotel restaurant is Taiwanese; dinner needs to be arranged early, because it will be closed around 8 o'clock.
