Six Core Highlights

Every selling point has been thoughtfully designed to make your Jiaoxi hot spring trip exceptional value for money

In‑room Moonstone Beauty Spring

Every guest room is equipped with a moonstone hot spring bathtub, filled with Jiaoxi's signature sodium bicarbonate spring water. This rare "phenol‑titanium‑alkali" composition is found in only two places in the world: Italy and Jiaoxi. After soaking, your skin feels smooth and refined as if a natural lotion has been applied — colourless, odourless and non‑irritating, earning it the reputation of being the "spring among springs"

Star Court Restaurant All‑You‑Can‑Eat Buffet

Using fresh local ingredients from Yilan, the restaurant serves a Chinese, Western and Japanese buffet. The seafood section features three‑spot crabs, salmon, tuna sashimi, abalone and large whelks; hot dishes include oven‑roasted steak, chilli crab and oyster omelette; and the dessert section offers macarons, handmade tofu pudding and dark chocolate truffles among hundreds of choices

Rooftop Outdoor Hot Spring SPA

The rooftop panoramic terrace features 7–8 hot spring pools (ranging from ambient temperature to 40°C), including private bathhouses, a public pool, Vichy showers, steam room and sauna. Guests can book a private bathhouse for 45 minutes free of charge. Soaking at night also allows you to gaze at the starry sky and overlook the Lanyang Plain

5‑Minute Walk from Jiaoxi Railway Station

The hotel is located at No. 118, Section 5, Jiaoxi Road, just 380 metres from Jiaoxi Railway Station — approximately a 5‑minute walk away. Easily accessible by TRA train or interstate bus, with a free car park next to the hotel for the convenience of self‑driving guests

The Only Starry Sky Painted Ceiling in Taiwan

Star‑sky mural artists have been invited to create zodiac‑themed starry night skies on the ceilings of the guest rooms, with immersive starfields projected after the lights are turned off. Rooms are approximately 7 ping in size, equipped with Mr. Brown capsule coffee machines, smart bidet toilets and large floor‑to‑ceiling windows, making every room a unique artistic space

Hot Spring Fish Foot Soaking Pool + Tortoise Garden

The outdoor area on the 2nd floor features a hot spring fish foot soaking pool, where adorable little fish gently nibble at the dead skin on your feet — a delight for both adults and children. Next to it is a Sulcata tortoise enclosure where you can observe them up close, making it one of the most popular facilities for families with kids

What is the "Beauty Spring"?

The Jiaoxi hot spring is a neutral sodium bicarbonate spring (pH 7.2–7.9). The water is clear and colourless, free of the sulphur smell, and rich in sodium, magnesium, calcium, potassium and bicarbonate ions. Only Italy and Jiaoxi in Taiwan have been found to contain the unique "phenol‑titanium‑alkali" composition. After soaking, the skin feels as smooth as silk, hence its reputation as the "Beauty Spring".

Natural Moisturising Skincare

Bicarbonate ions soften dead skin cells and cleanse pores. After soaking, there is no need to apply lotion — the skin naturally takes on a smooth, radiant glow.

Promotes Blood Circulation

The warm spring water dilates blood vessels and accelerates metabolism, effectively relieving muscle soreness and joint discomfort.

Relieves Stress and Aids Sleep

Minerals relax the nervous system, calming both body and mind after a soak and significantly improving sleep quality.

Odourless and Non‑Irritating

Unlike the strong smell of sulphur springs, sodium bicarbonate spring water is colourless and odourless, so even those with sensitivities can enjoy it with peace of mind
