Mountain View Hotels in Yilan

The host Chris made us felt very welcomed with his selfless travel tips, scrumptious breakfasts, handwritten messages and exquisitely furnished accommodation. He even went the extra mile to review our itinerary for a better route or arrangement! He's highly responsive to our questions when we were outside, including helping us to arrange rides. There are also intimate small devices in the homestay, such as hot water in the room, and help to send postcards!

I stayed in Yilan for 3 days and stayed in a hot spring hotel for 2 days. I specially chose this fly inn. Although the location is not close to the station, it is very fast to take a taxi. The environment here is very good, it feels like a vacation, and it feels like home! The lady boss and the boss are very friendly. The design of the B&B is really exquisite. The room is also very large. You can see that they have put a lot of effort into it. There are many Turkish designs. The room is also spotlessly clean. It is really super clean, without a single hair. Because we had to catch a bus on the day of departure, the boss specially picked us up at the station. The service was really thoughtful! And you must try Vivi’s breakfast, those 12 dishes are really worth a try! It tastes great! This time I experienced such a humane B&B, it really felt like home, I will definitely come again if I have the chance! Thanks chris &vivi

The guesthouse I stayed at this time was in Toucheng, Yilan, very close to the Toucheng Interchange, called Craftsman's Little Wooden House. I felt it was a very tasteful place. The little wooden house definitely gave me a relaxing feeling. Upon entering, the high ceilings and stairs leading to the upper bunk made the room feel more like a three-dimensional geometric space than a flat map. If I had to point out a drawback, it would be the lack of chairs. There was only one for a vanity table, and the rest were outdoor chairs on the back balcony. The interior was mostly cushioned on the floor, in a Japanese style, but for someone like me with osteoporosis, standing up and squatting down was incredibly difficult, haha. But I can't blame the owner; it's just my personal problem. Overall, however, it was comfortable. Breakfast was simple, served in the common area on the first floor: simple toast, congee, and a few side dishes. It was quite satisfying, and I felt warmly cared for. This room type appears to accommodate up to eight people. There are two double beds on the lower bunk and two people sleeping on each side of the upper bunk, so it can comfortably fit eight people, making it quite suitable for family trips. It's very close to Jiaoxi at night, so you can go for a hot spring bath, find some food, or even call a panda (a local restaurant). Living comfortably is no problem.

The location was very peaceful and not too far from the Main Street of Jiaoxi. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and there was a very nice live music performance in the evening. The pool area was nice, and the hot spring private areas were sufficient. The breakfast and dinner buffet I would say is one of the best in Jiaoxi in terms of the Spa hotels and the rooms were well sound insulated. We would definitely come again and my infant certainly enjoyed it. One of the more expensive hot spring hotels in Jiaoxi but if you want a quiet and peaceful few days with activities, good food and with easy access to the mountains for a nice walk I would recommend this place. Minor criticism for the rooms I would say is the cleanliness. There were slight dust in places and because there is carpet, and if you’re prone to dust allergy be prepared. Saying that if they have a room without carpet that would be perfect, but nonetheless, we would definitely come again.

I recently stayed at the Hotel Mu Jiaoxi and overall had a good experience. The room was spacious and clean, the bed was comfortable, and the soundproofing was decent, so I slept very soundly at night. The hotel facilities are excellent; the hot spring area was well-maintained and very relaxing after a soak. The outdoor pool area was also beautiful and great for photos. Breakfast offered a rich variety of both Chinese and Western options, and the food quality was good, though it did get crowded during peak hours, requiring a bit of a wait. The staff were friendly, and the check-in and check-out processes were very smooth. The only minor points for improvement are that it gets quite busy on weekends, making some public facilities a bit crowded, and it took a little time to get used to the parking flow. Overall, it's a hot spring hotel worth revisiting, suitable for couples, families, or friends. If you can avoid peak times, the stay quality would be even better. I'd give it four stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The owner's dedication is evident in every corner, and the scenery is stunning. My parents loved it too! It's not far from Fushan Botanical Garden and only a ten-minute drive from downtown Yilan. It's very convenient and I'd definitely stay here again next time I visit.

The location is fantastic, quiet, and surrounded by a variety of restaurants. The guesthouse boasts a clean courtyard with birdsong and fragrant flowers, where you can walk barefoot on the grass. The vegetable garden offers a wide variety of fruit trees. The indoor lobby is bright and features a rich selection of rare and exotic fruits. The rooms are spacious with clean floors and bright windows. The small balcony in the room is perfect for small gatherings. The bathroom has a separate shower and toilet and is of a suitable size. Breakfast uses local and homegrown ingredients, and the delicious breakfast dishes highlight the owner's dedication. Upon check-out, you'll receive a natural cypress sachet, leaving a pleasant fragrance on your return journey.

Great hotel. I highly recommend everyone to stay when visiting Yilan. The environment is quiet, the housekeeper service is great, the hotel dog is super cute, the breakfast is delicious, a good place to relax, and a great place to stay.

This hotel is the hotel we stayed in for the second part of our first trip to Yilan. The overall facilities of the hotel are quite good, so that guests can experience many activities. The layout of the rooms is also very comfortable. The environment and scenery are refreshing! 

Happy to have had the hotel save me from cycling another 2 hours through the dark. Easy to find, many rooms available. Nice receipt from the owner and happy they had cloths washing and drying fascilities. Stored my bicycle in the room which wasn’t appreciated by the owner as he was worried for making his bed sheets dirty. As he couldn’t reach out to me he switched off the A/C. That’s a complete no-go and totally against any hospitality rules. I stay 209+ days a year in hotels and never ever have I had such a treatment. Anyways, was dissolved quickly but hope the owner can change his attitude to other travellers. Apart from that the bed is hard and the A/C works good. Loads of blouse form the neighbour on the next morning.
