Family Fun

This was one of the things our children were most looking forward to! The kids area was small, but the kids liked it. The night was lovely, the lights looked pretty, and the warm water felt great. The pools are super awesome and nice. My kids loved them and so did I.

Great Meal Experience

The included meal at Baldi is decent. They offered a buffet with various options, and although we faced a long wait, the outdoors dining space was lovely and made up for it. The included meals were good, making it very convenient after spending the day at the pools.

Comfortable Stay

The room was one of the nicest I have ever seen. The bathroom was massive, and the balcony was beautiful. Although there was construction nearby, it did not disrupt our stay, making it a comfortable retreat after enjoying the hot springs.

6.4/10

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The hot springs are beautiful and offer a variety of pools, perfect for relaxation. However, I found the rooms to lack the luxury expected from a 5-star venue, and the service can be inconsistent. Dining options were overpriced, and the presence of day pass guests diminished the sense of exclusivity. Overall, it's a memorable place to visit once, but it might not be worth a second stay.

Rooms

The rooms were spacious but had a moldy smell, and the furniture and lighting were quite outdated.

Service

Service was hit or miss; while some staff were friendly and helpful, others were not attentive at all.

Location

Facilities

The hot spring facilities are impressive with a range of cooling and heating pools, but the party atmosphere at some pools was distracting.

Baldi Hot Springs is a true paradise filled with breathtaking scenery and amazing hot springs to relax in. The staff treats you wonderfully, making you feel right at home from the moment you arrive.

Baldi Hot Springs offers a wonderful experience for families, especially with kids. The hot springs and water slides are a huge hit, and we practically had the park to ourselves. However, the dining leaves much to be desired, and the room, while decent, didn't quite match the premium price. Overall, it's a solid choice for relaxation, but be prepared for mediocre dining options.

The facilities, especially the hot springs and water slides, are fantastic and provide a lot of fun for families. The natural sauna is also a standout feature.

5.2/10

The resort is visually stunning with beautiful hot springs, but unfortunately, the service and accommodations fell short. We had a troubling incident with a rodent in our room and lackluster customer service exacerbated our experience, especially when trying to redeem a spa service. The cleanliness of the facilities was also a concern. Overall, while the scenery is lovely, improvements are much needed in terms of service and room safety.

Rooms

Our room was visually appealing but old and had issues like a leaky roof. It felt overpriced given the circumstances.

5.0/10

My experience at this hotel was quite disappointing overall. The location is decent, close to a national park, but the rooms and service left a lot to be desired for the price we paid. The desperate need for maintenance and cleanliness, combined with a lack of proper service for guests, made my stay really unenjoyable. Personally, I'd recommend looking elsewhere for better hot springs experiences.

Rooms

5.0

Location

The hotel is positioned reasonably well, but it didn't feel special since it was overshadowed by the poor experience indoors.

Dining

5.0

Dining here was a major letdown; the buffet offerings were overpriced and truly awful in taste.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities seemed more like a water park than a true hot springs experience, lacking cleanliness and contributing to a poor atmosphere.
