Hotels in Downtown/Elephant Trunk Hill/Two Rivers And Four Lakes, Guilin

This is a great hotel if you are interested in resting for a day in the middle of your trip. The location is good, 10 minutes away walking from a pedestrian street with plenty of establishments and restaurants. The hotel offers great views with included free activities, in which I took part of two: the Miao Ethnicity photoshoot session and the ******* bowl sound healing. It has a pool which unfortunately I couldn't try as I'm traveling in March, and is too cold, but I did enjoy the terrace views during both day and night. The butler service is quite attentive, answering quickly to our doubts and offered a plate of fresh fruit upon arrival. We didn't eat in the hotel, instead we preferred to order from outside, and a Keenon delivery robot makes sure to deliver the order directly to your room. The suite was spacious and clean, with a lovely decor. I really enjoyed staying here and highly recommend it for families and couples.

I give this hotel a 10 out of 5 stars! The room was divine, the location is right on the 4 lakes and it was just quiet, clean, modern and well equipped. Could not have been happier! Oh and after travelling through china for a while, I was delighted to have some eggs on toast with a juice for breakfast for a change :)

Beautiful hotel in central Guilin. The staff is very friendly and super helpful. Very nice breakfast. The room was really big

The hotel location is right on pedestrians street, a lot of food option near by, room is ok, the rooftop breakfast was good, the view is very nice from the terrace and the restaurant also very delicious

We stayed here for 4 nights with as a family of 5 (two rooms, one of which is a room with an extra bed). I’ve written a much longer review for our other booking, but in gist, highly recommend! The services was impeccable and the view of the pagoda was lovely from the room. It was also really modern and the number of freebies from woodblock printing to foot massage and more really sweetened the deal. You could tell they also really cared about service - the guest relation manager even asked us during our buffet breakfast if we had any feedback for them! It especially helped that the buffet breakfast was really good, as well as the hotel restaurant

Amazing view from room. Cool amenities including a high quality massage chair. The fried rice for breakfast was yummy. The bathtub was fantastic. Hotel staff was helpful. Only issue I had with the specific room I reserved was that the entrance to the twin pagoda park was on the street below and people were very loud. From as early as 6am to about 11pm there is bound to be some noise. Personally for me, the view from the room offset that issue.

Overall a very nice hotel but I wouldn't give it 5 stars. In my opinion it's more of a 3-4 star boutique hotel. The room was very large and nice, with 3 panoramic windows to the courtyard in front of the entrance. No unpleasant smells, one window with mosquito net. The TV didn't work, meaning it didn't have regular channels connected. The bathroom very large but unfortunately without any heating. In my opinion too cold for a bath or shower. Leaving the door to the room open and raising the room thermostat to 30 degrees Celsius didn't change anything. Welcome fruits were very nice. Free afternoon tea modest, exactly as shown on the photo during booking. Amenities with too strong for my taste, masculine smell. Based on the number of seats in the dining room (only 24), I think it's a really small hotel, so the breakfast had a very limited choice and quantity, but it was tasty. At the check out each guest receives a pack of local tea. The location of the hotel is excellent. It is connected by bus 18 or 100 with Guilin North station but I don't recommend taking bus. First of all, tickets from Guangzhou or Shenzhen should work, but they didn't, and neither did Allipay. One ticket costs 2 yuan, and you can pay in cash. More importantly, there is no overground crossing between the nearest bus stop and the hotel. You have to use an underground passage [a lot of stairs, no lift], and with suitcases it's a big problem. In the other direction, from the hotel to the station, there's no such problem. Taxi cost around 0.25 euros per kilometer.

The bed was very comfortable and the view was gorgeous. Breakfast was stellar and definitely worth eating every day. I will say the staff was a little overbearing when you come in every day. It got to be a bit much when I was just trying to get to my room and they kept asking me questions. Like are you checking in today? Would you like a spa? And I would have to say no it’s my second day here. Really don’t need that much attention every time I come in.  Also please don’t ask for five star reviews upon check out. It’s really a turn off and makes me second-guess the whole reviewing process when the hotel is asking you to give them five stars when a proper assessment is always beneficial to both the hotel and guests. 

We love that the hotel looks new and clean. It's worth it for the price we paid, as compared to other hotels that we stayed in. The hotel staff are very helpful and warm. They were also able to provide a baby cot which was very necessary for us. We loved the children's play area and the beautiful swimming pool view at level 9!

I was travelling alone and the made me feel welcome and was super helpful as well. Especially Max, who works at the reception, was super friendly. Breakfast is delicious and the room very nice and super clean. You can book tours directly at the hotel. The four-hour boat trip to Yangshuo was breathtakingly beautiful. Highly recommended.
