✓ A good fit if

  • Families with children: there are family rooms, the Westin Family Kids Club and a karaoke room, so the kids have somewhere to play even on rainy days.
  • Travelers who want hot springs in Yilan along with resort facilities: the open-air bath, spa and outdoor pool are all on site, enough to fill two nights.
  • Three generations or two families traveling together: the 6 villas with private pools come in one-bedroom, two-bedroom and presidential versions, so everyone can stay together.

✕ Consider another hotel if

  • Travelers who want to stroll a hot-spring street and grab a late-night snack in the evening: Yuanshan is quieter, and staying in central Jiaoxi is more convenient.
  • If your trip focuses on Hualien and Taitung and Yilan is just a stopover, consider staying straight in Hualien. — try Le Méridien Hualien Resort

With a private charter

From Taipei, take National Freeway 5 through the Hsuehshan Tunnel into Yilan, then head to Yuanshan. Wanglong Pond, Shuanglian Pond and the Kavalan distillery in Yuanshan are spread apart, and getting between them by public transport takes a long time, so a one-day private charter can link the ponds, the distillery and Yilan city before bringing you back to soak at the hotel in the evening. Parking is free for guests, and for families or villa guests with lots of luggage, it is easiest to have your driver drop you right at the lobby entrance.
