The hotel is nestled halfway up the mountain, and the air is filled with the fresh scent of plants and trees. The lobby design has a very Zen feel, with natural wood tones paired with floor-to-ceiling windows; as soon as you walk in, your mind calms down. The outdoor hot spring area is surrounded by lush greenery, and while soaking, you can look up to see distant mountains and the starry sky – the ambiance is absolutely perfect.
There's a wide variety of hot spring pools, including natural spring pools, medicinal herb baths, petal baths, and several private hot spring courtyards. The water temperature is just right, not too hot. I especially loved the infinity pool perched on the cliff; at dusk, the rosy glow reflects on the water, making every photo Instagram-worthy. The water quality is very clean, with a faint sulfur smell, and my skin felt silky smooth after soaking – it's clearly not recycled tap water.
We booked a room with a private hot spring. The balcony has its own hot tub, perfect for a relaxing soak with a drink in the evening, offering privacy and comfort. The bedding was very comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The amenities had a botanical scent, which perfectly complemented the hot spring atmosphere.
All the staff were very friendly; they offered hot towels and ginger tea during check-in. While soaking in the hot spring, a staff member proactively brought water and reminded us not to soak for too long. I left my jacket behind during check-out, and the front desk immediately arranged for it to be couriered back – incredibly thoughtful.
The breakfast was a buffet, not a huge selection, but the quality was excellent. For dinner, we ordered local specialties like bamboo shoot stew with chicken and hot spring eggs; the ingredients were very fresh. A bowl of hot congee after a hot spring soak was incredibly comforting.
Overall, it's perfect for a weekend escape from the city to relax and rejuvenate. I'll definitely be back, and next time I want to experience soaking in the hot springs during snowy weather.
