Relaxing Hot Springs

I absolutely loved the hot springs at The Great Roots Forestry Spa Resort. The pools were well-maintained and provided a serene experience amidst nature. I found it particularly enjoyable to soak in the outdoor spa with a view of the lush green surroundings. Whether you prefer warm or cool waters, there’s something for everyone. I highly recommend planning a visit here for true relaxation.

Spacious and Comfortable

My room at the resort was impressive! It was spacious enough to accommodate my group comfortably, and the decor was modern yet cozy. I especially appreciated the separate shower and toilet areas in the bathroom. It was perfect for getting ready without feeling cramped. Overall, the room contributed to a relaxing getaway experience.

Delicious Culinary Journey

The dining experience at The Great Roots was a good surprise! The restaurant offers a variety of dishes crafted from locally sourced ingredients, perfectly blending traditional flavors with modern techniques. I enjoyed every meal, especially the BBQ, which was well-prepared and flavorful. It truly felt like a culinary journey through the forest's abundance.

Fun for Kids

As a parent, I was thrilled with the amenities provided for kids. The entertainment center was a major hit with my children, filled with arcade games and activities that kept them engaged. The nearby trails were also a great way for us to spend time outside, allowing the kids to explore nature safely. It made for a perfect family getaway!

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. While the room was spacious and comfortable enough for two, the overall condition felt like a cheap motel which was frustrating given the price. The service left much to be desired, with long waits and poor communication. The location was peaceful, surrounded by nature, but a bit isolated. Dining was mediocre at best, with the food lacking quality. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this hotel for a relaxing getaway.

Overall, my stay at the resort had its ups and downs. The facility itself is lovely with spacious rooms that have a comfortable bed perfect for a family. There are excellent amenities to enjoy, especially the spa and hiking trails. However, the service left much to be desired, especially during check-in and the dining experience could definitely use improvements in both quality and variety.

Our stay at this resort was a delightful experience, offering spacious and comfortable accommodations, paired with stunning views and excellent amenities. However, we encountered some issues with smoke odor in our room and limited dining options outside the hotel. The spa and hiking trails were highlights, providing a relaxing getaway amidst nature.

Rooms

The rooms in the main building were spacious and equipped with a comfortable king-size bed. However, we noticed a smoke odor upon arrival, which required the staff to bring an air purifier.

Service

The service was a bit mixed; while the staff reacted quickly to our concerns about the smoke smell, the check-in process was less than welcoming. Management could benefit from more consistent training.

Location

The resort is located a bit far from downtown Taipei, requiring some adventurous public transportation to reach it. There's limited access to restaurants and town amenities, so it’s very much a retreat atmosphere.

Dining

Dining options were somewhat limited, with the buffet showing some signs of wear, but we found the breakfast and the dinner at the Chinese restaurant to be satisfying.

Facilities

I stayed at this hotel for a weekend with friends, and while there were moments of enjoyment, overall it fell short of expectations. The check-in process was confusing and frustrating, and the room conditions did not match the price point. We had a good time in the hot springs and hiking trails, but the dining experience was not impressive. I wouldn’t consider this a good value for money, especially given the issues we encountered.
