Travel Tips

Note that the hotel does not offer on-site parking, so if you’re driving, book a spot at the nearby public parking lot on Deyang Road 10 minutes in advance, as it fills up quickly on weekends and holidays. Hot spring and SPA treatments need to be booked at the front desk 24 hours ahead to secure your preferred time. For easy access to other parts of Yilan, the local bus station is just a 3-minute walk from the hotel, with regular routes to Luodong Night Market and Yilan City. Don’t forget to pack swimwear for the hot spring and water park—most guest rooms include private soaking tubs, but public facilities require proper swim attire.
