We stayed in a B&B in Wulai for the first night, and chose a hot spring resort for the second night. Mingyue Hot Spring is located in Wulai Old Street. Its condescending location makes the stay a quiet place in the middle of the bustle. There is an elevator in the clubhouse, so you don’t have to work hard to check in your luggage. Take the elevator to the first floor and then take another elevator to the check-in counter on the fifth floor. The entire hot spring resort is built with cypress wood. When you enter, you will smell a faint cypress fragrance in the air. The guest room is at the back of the main building. The room we stayed in happened to be on the lower floor, so we had to carry our luggage up several flights of stairs. I booked a "Superior Double Room" with breakfast and dinner through agoda (TWD 3900/night). Instead of HKD 1,000, the average night is HKD 478 per person. The room is quite large, with a king-sized double bed and plenty of space. There are two single sofas next to the bed. The mattress has good support and the bed is very comfortable to sleep on. Especially after taking a bath in the hot spring, I feel like I can fall asleep instantly. The bed faces the TV, and there will be a dressing table next to it. Hot water kettles and hair dryers are provided, and hot water can be used to make Gukeng coffee or green tea. There are two bottles of water in the refrigerator. There is a convenience store near the club where you can buy some drinks to finish your bath. The sleeping and bathing areas are actually separated by a door. When bathing, the door should be closed to prevent water vapor from entering the room. Before taking a bath, you have to call the counter to ask the staff to fill up the water, and the granite jacuzzi is quickly filled. If you are afraid of being too hot, you can open the windows. It is quite comfortable with a little cool breeze, and you can see the stream view and enjoy the natural scenery. On the other hand, the shower and wash area are a bit simpler, and the bath products provided are trial packs. In addition to taking a bath in your own room, the hot spring resort also has public pools for men and women. There are two hot spring pools and a cold spring pool on each side. The facilities are also very complete, including not only various spas, but also steam rooms and ovens. Dinner will be enjoyed in the viewing restaurant on the fifth floor, and we choose an outdoor location. Because the weather is quite cool, it is very comfortable to eat hot pot, and watching Wulai at night is also very healing. There are several types of pot dishes to choose from (will be adjusted according to the season). Ours is sesame oil chicken, which is generous. The soup has a rich and slightly sweet taste, which warms your stomach after drinking it. The chicken is also very tender and there are many toppings and vegetables. Breakfast will be served in the same restaurant, with either Chinese or Western style. The Chinese style would be porridge with gluten, fried vegetables, sun-cooked eggs, etc., which feels lighter. For Western style, there will be salad, ham, sun-cooked eggs, toast and French fries. Add a cup of coffee at the end. This kind of quaint hot spring resort is also a good experience. Moreover, the staff were very friendly. They told us about the attractions in Wulai and gave us maps.
