Relaxing & Rejuvenating Stay”

We were there in November. It was about 1 hour drive from Taipei. The Great Roots Forestry Spa Resort is what we were looking for in a short trip. Food was great and the surrounding forestry was really relaxing and stress-free. The hot spring pool is fantastic, steam room, masseuse (have to book and pay), water jet masssages and a variety of water massages. Unfortunately the lovely swimming pool was close as it's 'winter season'? There were 3 diff mountain trails ranging from 1/2 hour (easy) to 1-1/2 hrs (difficult) very fun! We did venture out of the Resort and took a walk all round town which brought us down to a lovely river and a bridge. Fantastic views. Overall a very relaxing family trip - all in 1 package.

Fantastic weekend away from the city”

Good facilities, nice spa, nice staff, good breakfast. Tranquil and a much needed quietness only 1 hour from Taipei! Lovely trails also. Always something to do with all ages. Only thing is: location is a bit remote, rent a car if you can.

Good Spa Resort For Holidays”

Good Spa Resort for holidays. Out door Hot spring area consider very basic but the hot spring water very good. There was a minor bathtubs with the hot spring water inside the room and it suitable for family members to enjoy it.

Almost perfectly relaxing”

We stayed on Thursday night. Avoided the crowds and still enjoyed the Friday night buffet. We really enjoyed the lunch and two dinners at the western restaurant, but we're quite disappointed with breakfast. The pork ribs, the rib eye, the salmon roll were all great. The surrounding mountains are beautiful. We were looking to get away from the noise of the city and just relax. This would have worked except for the group games in the evening. The girl directing the games was on very loud speakers that blared into our room, with the windows closed - exactly what we were trying to get away from. The barbecue area also blasted techno music at night. The next day was nice and quiet again and we had a great time lounging by the pool - less people than the hot springs. We also enjoyed that the gym looked out at the mountains. We would go again.

Great location, excellent place to take family! ”

First time there, took family. Great location with many activities to do in and around the resort. Definitely a family resort.

Excellent ”

Clean spa and the hotel is well facilitated with friendly staff. Suitable for a two days’ stay with family

Relaxing spa resort in the midst of nature”

This is a nice spa resort located within the Dabangan nature reserve. If you are a nature person, there's plenty of hiking trails within the compound with good tracks and adequate signposting. Walks takes an hour to three, depending on your choice of trails. Other than the spa, gym and nature, there isn't much else to do.

Resort hotel”

in overall much enjoyed the resort type of setting and good level of service for an escape in the woods. rooms are clean, although quite standard. would have liked to have a dvd player in the room. fresh air and exceptionally lush rainforest jungle type of path in the forest, with beautiful cherry trees. public hotsprings are quite nice.

Gorgeous Hotel!”

Visit this hotel around Christmas time. Not much foreigner knows about this hotel and with my observation, mostly local people will visit here. Maybe the location is not that convenient and it's located inside a forest. It's a gorgeous hotel and they haven't got too many rooms. So, it's not too crowded. The environment is quiet and peaceful. The room is a bit old but still tidy and spacious. The best of all is the hot spring and the super friendly staff. It's a MUST TRY to this hotel.

Restful resort with excellent n efficient staff”

This place is vast but wheelchair friendly. Wheelchair provided by resort with a NTD2000 deposit. Very polite and helpful staff. Outdoor hotspring was good but only opens at 8am in the morning.

nice resort. value for money”

the forest is beautiful and the spa is awesome. activity center may not be suitable for older kids.

Serene getaway”

Comfortable and spacious room with a nice tea brewing area. Clean hot spring facilities. Weekday meals can be pricey as there is not much else around. Separate western and Chinese style restaurants. Beautiful hiking trails - bring proper shoes as it can get steep! Around 1200 NT to cab to the airport.

Enjoyed a lot”

Rooms are clean and tidy. Buffet breakfast also nice. More important is that it has a very good condition hot spring and can have a little walk uphill for hiking with refreshing air in the forest. We have a very nice stay for 2 nights.

Extremely Recommendable Resort”

We have a very nice stay for 2 nights. Rooms are clean and tidy. Buffet breakfast also nice. More important is that it has a very good condition hot spring and can have a little walk uphill for hiking with refreshing air in the forest.

Excellent night food and very large room”

This hotel is very closed to the mountain side. It is very quiet and good for healthy. The room is very large and the bed is very comfortable. The best one is the good buffet at the night with the room.

Favourite Spa Resort”

Amazing place with a nice forest to hike in the morning. Love the spa and hot spring area too! Breakfast spread is good but doesn't change much daily.

silent & green resorts”

i enjoyed nice hot spring, hiking on the hill, good taiwan food, the resorts welcoming is very warm, it's very good choice to spend holidays.

Spacious Room”

I came together with my 2 infants, (16 months old). They are very happy to crawl around the room and 1st trial of the in-house hot spring. It's a very enjoyable and memorable trip.

Good for family but it's overrated ”

I think the resort is nice but it's only average. So I think the score is a bit overrated. The room was clean and spacious, but the hotspring facilities did not meet my expectation.

Decent Stay”

Unfortunately the stay was kind of rush and short which we did not have enough time to attend the activity hotel provided and enjoy hotel's amenities. Overall it's a nice stay.
