"This exquisite five-room retreat is a one-hour drive from the international airport. ... The adjacent open-air public baths overlook mist-covered Yangming Mountain." Full review
Michelin Guide "Originally a private club, this hot springs hideaway still feels exclusive. Water, stone and wood blend harmoniously in expansive rooms with private springs and LOccitane bath products."

For a taste of the good life, you can pay to use the public hot springs for four hours (gender-segregated public bathing is nude), or pamper yourself with a spa treatment.
