Located in a vibrant street full of eateries in central of Jiaoxi.
Hotel breakfast is by far the best of what we had in Taiwan , very good quality with plenty of selection , deserts and can drinks provided as well. Great hot spring facilities in the rooftop & very spacious and comfortable family room with nice room slippers & onsen sandals. We are also provided with vouchers to experience cooking onsen egg/ vegetables at nearby Gamalan hotel.
Overall, a great hotel but the lobby feels noisy & crowded as it is considered an open space area as the bakery, with Starbucks and hotel restaurant.

Visited the hotel with my family, stayed in room 720, great food, room, ambience and roof top hot spring facility, just that roof top hot spring area closes from 11:30 to 2:30, which is a bit inconvenient. Most of the staff members we saw are very polite and accommodating! A female staff member we saw at 11:30 on the 14/Nov at the hot spring reception was not friendly at all. She was the only staff at the hot spring area at that moment. There was two hair dryers hanging on the wall, one of them was not working. I passed the broken hair dryer to her and reflected this issue. She simply took the hair dryer without a word and totally ignored me. Her expression shows that she absolutely didn’t want to be there. She is unbelievably rude and way below ********* hospitality standard!

We bring our wheelchair bound mum for our planned Taiwan travel. Booked 3 rooms. The rooms are very spacious and clean. My mum and all our family members were very satisfied with the rooms. And the 温泉泡as well. All good except for the typhoon Krathon which disrupted our travel itinerary.

A new hotel, clean, spacious room, good breakfast spread. Need to take note that the English Name of the Hotel is Gamalan Spring instead of Gamalan Star.

The room is very spacious and clean. The staffs are very friendly too. I made dinner buffet reservation and enjoyed a good price for it. The food variety is good and it worth the money. I enjoyed my stay here very much. Especially with the hot spring in the room. Highly recommended.

This hotel has everything you need for. Only that the bathroom accessories used are not up to standard. Expect this hotel to partner with some famous brands for that. Also the hair dryer also spoil what it is a high class and beautiful hotel.

The location is well situated for the hot spring (onsen) town. Town is a bit in the quiet side which is good for a restorative weekend get away.
The renovation is new, and place is clean.
Breakfast spread offers wide range of raw vegetables, a vegan haven which is pretty standard fare for a 4 star ********* style hotel.
On the same ground floor, there is a bakery offering delectable selection of pastries. Only downside is it is not opened till 10am.

Very new hotel, the facilities are very clean~
There is a public hot spring area with an oven and a steam room. You need to wear a swimsuit and a swimming cap, but they are available for sale if you forget to bring them.
The room is very big and comfortable. The hot spring tub in the room is very large, and it is very comfortable for two people to soak in.

After taking a bath in the bathroom, when you open the bathroom door, you see a lot of stains or mold on the entire wall? It's very inconsistent with the whole thing.
We reported it to the front desk and changed rooms, but my son got up halfway through his hot spring bath to pack his luggage and change rooms, which was not a pleasant experience.

The four-person suite was available on the first day of stay. As soon as we arrived at the hotel, someone came to help us unload our luggage. The parking space was just around the corner, which was very convenient. The room was very clean, spacious, with a large bathtub, and a hot spring SPA on the top floor. The service staff was very good, especially the service staff aunt Lin Daihua, who kept reminding us to drink more water and pay attention to safety. If we have any questions, we can go directly to her, which made my mother feel very warm. The breakfast ingredients were also very fresh and delicious. I will continue to stay in this hotel in the future

I have stayed in hotels of the same group many times, but this is my first time in the Star of Gomalan. The new hotel is comfortable to stay in and the rooms are very clean. The only two drawbacks are that there is no ramp at the entrance of the hotel to facilitate luggage transportation and the coffee is very bitter. Checked into room 702. It seemed that there was a motor running on the top floor. When I was about to go to bed, I noticed some noise. The front desk immediately helped to deal with it.
