“Riverside thermal sanctuary”

“Riverside thermal sanctuary”
Sunken in-room stone baths and riverside public pools fed by Wulai's mineral-rich natural hot springs.
Daily gong rituals across the river, Atayal indigenous design touches, and mountain tea tastings.
Evening turndown with herbal bath salts, river-facing suite pavilions, and dedicated hot spring tea service.
Perched above the Nanshi River in forested Wulai, an hour south of central Taipei
Rooms
Stone soaking tubs frame the forested canyon, pairing natural sodium bicarbonate spring waters with warm timber and Atayal tribal accents.
Wellness

The riverside retreat joined Relais & Châteaux in 2013, anchoring its philosophy in local Atayal indigenous heritage and outdoor performance art.
Eat & drink
