Great Roots Forestry Spa Resort

Big resort area with large hot spring facility. Loved the hiking trails.

Rooms and facilities are getting old and stuffy

Amenities, service, hiking trails

Room had a lot of mosquitoes

Large hot spring area with lots of different temperature and types.

The restaurant. The western restaurant for dinner is easy too expensive for the quality of the food and the waiters weren't professional at all and finally it closes way to early! 8:30pm...

The resort was amazing with the forest trails, Hot Springs, and the buffet with various options.

I hope the checkout time can be delayed.

I liked that the resort felt secluded. The massage by Ipo was excellent. The food in the cafe was adequate, but the vegetable soup was fairly bland. The goldfish pond was nice. The dinosaur theme was odd and unusual.

The food was overall below standards, the coed pools were great but not conveniently located. The shuttle buses took a while to arrive. The rooms had a mild musty smell that aggravated my allergies. I could hear the people in the room above me. The women’s hot tubs were nice but small and enclosed inside. Wish there was an outdoor area. Seems like they are catering to families.

There is a lovely forest walk within the hotel compound. It is an excellent location to stay at when visiting the Man Yue Yuan National Forest.

The hotel is rather old and a little tired. There is a musty smell that pervades the hotel, including the rooms. Perhaps the ventilation system needs a thorough overhaul.

We enjoyed the room and the onsen very much. The next day, our skin became very smooth, the onsen did a magical treatment!

The dinner was good, but I thought the buffet should have had more dishes. The entrees that we got to order were good though. Our room has nice big windows, but the property management should really trim off some trees which block the Mountain View. It is a pity that we only saw a little of mountains, since there were overgrowing trees everywhere.

We splashed out and rode here on our last night of a Taiwan bicycle tour before finishing in Taipei; what a regal finish to a fantastic trip! The room was wonderful, hot springs are fabulous, and buffet breakfast was exceptional. If you’re on the fence of splurging a bit, this place is legit.

This is a spa resort with the emphasis on resort; it is huge and on new year's eve full with people. We had the suite which was huge. Breakfast was a standard buffet and good enough with an amazing range of beverages. There are a few trails around the hotel going up the hill. Trail #3 was pretty tough. The spa was nice, although I didn't try the public (free) one. It is a good way to relax after a strenuous walk. Our luggage and ourselves were transported up the hill by car (and downhill at check-out). All in all, a pleasant stay for 2 nights. Oh yes, they have mechatronic dinosaurs on the property and king kong is also displayed there for reasons I do not know.

Too massive and too many people, but then again it is a resort and it was during new year's eve

The room was clean and spacious.

Lack of flexibility on chec-in/ out policy

A spectacular location, close to the forest, with the opportunity to walk along nice paths surrounded by beautiful trees.The room was absolutely fine, while the hot spring was a bonus.Breakfast was mainly local style, but we were okay with that.On the whole wonderful for those who love nature

Great staff, great food, great pool.

Bathroom shower did not drain quickly enough

good housekeeping

onsen too crowded and facilities poor

The park is pretty big, the spring is good and there is an excellent trailing route nearby.

The entertainment facilities is a bit outdated.

Big space, nice view and plant diversity.

The waitress in View restaurant had no passion and impatient.She needs more training .

Breakfast pretty good, the food at Price Restaurant very well for Lunch. The staffs very helpfull and friendly, Lens very cute, she patient and can talk English well. the price at mini Mart inside resort cheaper than some mini store outside, yes! true

The rooms we stayed were in a cabin separated from typical hotel rooms. Rooms were decent and quiet. Amazing amenity, there is a pretty incredible hiking trek within resort property. Outdoor hot spring pools!

It can be too crowded over the weekends.

Great spa and swimming pool. The kiddy pool is excellent for small kids.The trail and dinosaurs are fun for kids.Breakfast is exceptional, On-site restaurant is great!

Great Design of the Resort and of the rooms Great Location by the forestThe overall resort and toilettes were very clean.

- Small used towel was forgotten by the cleaning staff in the shower (behind the shower door)- The Western food restaurant doesn't provide anything to costumers celebrating their birthday there- It wouldnt 't hurt if staff at the Western restaurant would smile more (clients would feel more welcome and would apreciate more)- There is no Bathrobe, which would feel more comfy and higher class- There are no slippers for kids, even if we stayed in the kids/family room

It was easy to find things to do around the resort for the 2 days we were there. It's a great property and they have a lot of facilities to keep you entertained.

We found some ants in the room but the maid came quickly to clean up and we didn't see any after the staff took care of the problem.
