Beitou Hot Springs: Top 3 Must-Visit Spots in Taiwan (2026 Guide)

Just a short MRT ride from downtown Taipei, Beitou welcomes you with the gentle scent of sulfur and tranquil mist. WAUG has carefully selected 3 of the most stylish and relaxing Beitou hot springs to awaken your senses on a lazy afternoon in 2026.


1. Waterhouse

If you appreciate sophisticated style, Waterhouse is an excellent choice. Since opening in 2019, it has become known as the most 'Instagrammable' hot spring in Beitou, featuring modern Japanese architecture. Soaking in the milky-white sulfur spring, you'll feel refreshed by the green forest views. The public bath offers a great sense of openness, but the private onsen rooms, perfect for couples or friends, are especially popular and should be booked in advance.


2. Spa Spring Resort

Located right next to Beitou's iconic Thermal Valley (Hell's Valley), Spa Spring Resort blends Taiwanese simplicity with attentive service. They pride themselves on their high-quality sulfur springs. You can enjoy a 1.5 to 2-hour onsen experience in a private room, or if you're feeling particularly tired, book an overnight stay and enjoy the large in-room bathtub all night long. It's the perfect place to visit after exploring the mysterious Thermal Valley.


3. SweetMe Hot Spring

For easy access and authentic charm, SweetMe Hot Spring is the way to go. Located just a 5-minute walk from MRT Xinbeitou Station, it's easy to find, and features separate public baths for men and women, so there's no need to bring a swimsuit. They take pride in the quality of their water, so if you want to experience a 'real onsen trip' and feel the benefits of the smooth spring water, this local favorite is highly recommended.
