So far the most cutiest hotel we ever been: winter decoration, christmas tree but the most charming is the cat on the front desk. Room was spacious with very cozy atmosphere, also new equipment. Hotel offers really nice breakfast and really delicious coffee with lots of choices. Highly recommend to stay

Butler service + location is amazing!
1️⃣ **Perfect fusion of art and landscape**——From the moment you step into the lobby, you are surrounded by high-end design: the textured fireplace restaurant on the first floor, the Rongyue Pavilion book and tea space on the fourth floor, the Internet celebrity ”Shangfang Jiewa” check-in point, every corner is the birthplace of light and shadow art blockbusters!
2️⃣ **Play around in Guilin's core scenic spots while lying down**——The hotel is directly located by Rong Lake, and it takes 5 minutes to walk to the ”Sun and Moon Twin Towers” and ”Elephant Trunk Hill”. The Ancient South Gate and the Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area are like a back garden, and the window is the ink-and-wash Guilin!
✔️ **Butler-style imperial service**——From helping to carry luggage at the door to feeding goodnight desserts, VIP treatment throughout the whole process, details control ecstasy!
✔️ **Guilin on the tip of the tongue**——A must-have for breakfast is authentic rice noodles, which are semi-self-service and both beautiful and nutritious, and you can enjoy a sense of ritual when eating~
✔️ **Immersive vacation in the room**——High-quality bedding + landscape view, 256G memory is used up during the day,
**📸Photography cheat guide:**
▫️4th floor Rongyue Pavilion terrace ”Climbing up the roof to remove tiles” camera position
▫️1st floor fireplace to take retro art blockbusters
”It's more like living in an art gallery than a hotel! The housekeeper even plugged in my milk tea straw in advance...””The location is so amazing that it's like turning on the scenic spot cheat, and you can appreciate the classical style of the ancient South Gate by opening the window
**💡Real evaluation summary:**
Art students will scream for the design, lazy people will kneel down to thank the location, and foodies will be bought by rice noodles and good night sweet soup——Come to Guilin and don't stay at Rongyue Pavilion≈Visit the Forbidden City and don't see the Hall of Supreme Harmony!

We were lucky to book this cost-effective B&B on our way back!
The lady boss was super nice. When we checked in, we happened to see them having a barbecue. She warmly invited us to eat with her and even sent a delicious birthday cake to our room for the child. They proactively communicated with us and changed us to a quiet room with sufficient heating. They also introduced us to a restaurant that was delicious and affordable. They were very thoughtful!
The bed in the room is very big, and the pillows seem to have been carefully selected, so I slept very comfortably at night. The hygiene is also quite good. Whether it is bed sheets, quilt covers or bath towels, you can see that they have been carefully cleaned and disinfected, so you can feel very safe staying here.
This B&B that is run with such care deserves a big thumbs up from the proprietress. I will come again next time I have the chance!

Must be five points praise, the room location is super good, the Li River, quiet in the middle of noisy, it is convenient to go to any attraction. The room has a large balcony. Don't be too comfortable to read a book and chat on the balcony in the early morning in the evening. The bed is the most comfortable hotel I have ever stayed in. The small objects in the room decoration are very exquisite. I like it. I cast a screen to watch a movie at night. The big bed next door to the children does not affect each other.

Don't miss the sweets of the old cake chocolate, the chicken wings are the best ever eaten. Crazy Amway.

This hotel is very lovely and natural and I loved it!
The staff was extremely helpful, everything was clean, working, and easy to understand! Everyone at the desk and the staff were all very helpful and understanding of the fact that I did not speak Chinese, and this effort was appreciated. They communicated via WeChat so that I could translate their messages easily :) If one day I come back to Guilin, I will stay here again!
The location is great, it is an easy walk to the main market street (East West Street).
Also the breakfast was delicious - I wish I could eat wontons every day for the rest of my life 😁

The room is consistent with the description on Ctrip. It is not far from the attractions. The key is that the handsome boss is very considerate. He not only provides delicious drinks, but also provides guides for surrounding beautiful scenery and food. Details are good: the toilet paper is all high-end facial tissue, there are four types of shower heads with strong water flow, the faucet of the wash basin is also super comfortable to use, the projection screen is large, super enjoyable, this room has a small courtyard, bring the elderly and children, you can rest in the courtyard, and there is a swing! I will continue to stay here next time. Huaxishan Park and Chuanshan Park, Guihai Qinglan, and Lijiang River Cruise are all great👍Great

The homestay incorporates Guangxi local culture into every detail: the hand-dyed curtains reflect the swaying mountain shadows, the stone steps in the bathroom are paved with rubble picked up from the Li River, and even the toothbrush handles are carved into miniature Moon Mountain. I love the 270° viewing terrace on the top floor. On rainy days, I boil a pot of old tree black tea to watch the misty mountains and rivers, and on clear nights, I lie down and use an astronomical telescope to look for Orion. The housekeeper will also quietly leave a glutinous rice wine for the late-returning travelers.
The most touching thing is the warmth of the service: I casually mentioned that I wanted to see an undeveloped wild waterfall, and the guy actually hand-painted a private hiking route; the side dishes of Guilin rice noodles for breakfast for three consecutive days were different every day, and on the day of leaving, I found that the suitcase was quietly pasted with a Zhuang embroidery sticker with the words ”safe and smooth”. The location is even more magical. It only takes 8 minutes to walk to Zhengyang Street to eat beer fish, but it is so quiet when turning into the alley that you can hear the rustling of bamboo leaves.

I stayed at Fanxinli Guesthouse for only 2 nights and I greatly enjoyed my stay in that short space of time.
The room is exactly as described, very spacious with a comfortable bed. The bathtub is great for relaxing after long days.
The service was unparalleled - from the beginning of my stay to the end, the staff were always available to help me if I needed. They helped me sort out my trip to the Longji Rice Terraces, making everything so much smoother!
Also, the restaurant downstairs is world class, some of the nicest food I've ever tasted!
I would greatly recommend them to anyone staying in Guilin.

The location is very good, at the entrance of the Seven Star Park scenic area, the Li River is right next to it, and a few minutes walk to the city center, East and West Lanes, and the Two Rivers and Four Lakes scenic spots. The room is comfortable and sanitary, and the service staff is very enthusiastic and willing to provide various help. The facilities are very user-friendly, the network signal is good, and the scenery outside the window is good. The design of the small ornaments in the room is also very distinctive. This hotel has many elements I like. The price-performance ratio is very good, very satisfied, and I will stay again next time.

GGuest UserVery nice hotel with a modern but minimalist style. Good location with a wonderful view on the mountains, close to the river and one of the main roads. Service was excellent and the employees were considerate and nice, and tended to any needs we had. Breakfast has not a lot of choices, but the quality and simplicity makes up for it. The photo shooting they offer was an interesting activity. The photographer and the team were patient and took the time to make this an enjoyable and fun experience. The pictures came out very well.

EearlgreykosongThis was a local hotel that was situated on a peak facing Jinfoding (Golden Buddha Peak), so note it’s not on Jinfoding itself but still in the same area of Jinkeng Dazhai. I hired a driver via the hotel to fetch me from Guilin Airport to the hotel. Journey took about 3 hours using local roads, if you can somehow negotiate with your driver to take the expressway from the airport, it will be about an hour shorter and less scenic but also less nauseating. Access to hotel is pretty limited unless you hire a driver or you drive. If you take the bus from Guilin downtown/Airport, it will only alight you at the Dazhai parking lot, and you still need to make transport arrangements to get to the hotel within the scenic area (anywhere between 20-40min drive) but the boss is helpful and very contactable (phone call or wechat). I wouldn’t recommend walking to the hotel cos it is situated at the top of a pretty steep hill and it is a one-car lane that goes both ways with many blind spots. At the hotel, you could choose to walk and hike the terraces to other viewpoints in Jinkeng, but note that the routes will be very long and exhausting. If you plan to visit other villages like Ping An Zhai, it’s about an hour’s drive away on mountain roads, and it’s best if you hire a driver as well.
Overall, room was very clean and spacious and was true to trip.com description and pictures. Very comfortable, clean and scenic stay! Shower and toilet are separate and clean. There’s a bathtub situated right behind the bed, they provided disposable bathtub liner if you want to use it. Hotel is situated near one of the viewpoints in Jinkeng, but it was very misty on the day I hiked. From what I could make out through the mist, the views seem pretty epic. View from the room is great and the boss provided a welcome sweet rice wine drink with lunch which was great! The boss gave me some luohanguo as a souvenir when I checked out! Did I also mention, breakfast provided included a jar of fresh warm soy milk and a delicious bowl of rice noodles made to order! Will stay again in future!

The room was huge, as was the bathroom as well, the bed was super comfortable and the bathtub with the view as the balcony was priceless. The staff is really nice and they speak English so the communication was easy. Breakfast with traditional guilin noodles was also super good, highly recommended

PPrairieTruthfully, I am having time finding words, and that's unusual for me. I must admit I was disappointed when Yangshuo Mountain Retreat cancelled my booking because of a wedding that had booked the place, but the photos of the garden sold me. I've been to Yangshuo perhaps five times over the last 10 years, and have stayed in every kind of place there-from a cheap hostel to the boutique rooms but my dream was to stay at YMR, where I always stop and have a whiskey by the river.
When we pulled into Liqui Town, I realized I had not explored this part of the valley and was disoriented. But then the staff greeted us, carried in our bags, gave us tea, peanuts, and oranges, and set to taking care of our every need. They were this way with us from start to finish-sending us off with a bag of fresh mandarin oranges and hugs-and a promise to send an invoice for our remaining expenses-which we still have not gotten!
Apart from the wonder of just those details, the food was exquisite, our farmhouse room was stylish and simple yet so thoroughly Chinese-in the most real and unassuming way. It was an honor and a pleasure to sip tea in the farmhouse and look at the many woodcut posters and Chinese propaganda songs on the walls while staring up from the tea table to the simply elegant clay tile roof resting on the original beams, feeling the mud bricks breathe out their history silently under a soft rain and the early crows of the neighborhood roosters. I
If one is quiet and still, I believe this little gem will give up her secrets, her history, and the story and true feeling of old-time village life amongst the stunning splatters of karst and water. We enjoyed watching the staff use the traditional well to clean up around the property, and the garden did not disappoint. Truly magical and filled with bonsai that some local master has been enjoying for many years. The food was excellent. We spoke with some Chinese tourists on the way out who were very disappointed with the local version of beer fish, ah but ours was exquisite, along with the drinks and italian food. It's very rare to find this mix of culture, authenticity, generosity, and good service all wrapped into a package that does nearly guarantee the fulfillment of the motto the girls wear on their shirts, ”be inspired....”
I would recommend this to anyone. 谢谢你们!

RrodrigopmpsWe slept one night during our stay in Xingping. The location is perfect, just next to the main street, 1 min walk to the ferry which takes you to the other side where you'll find buggies that take you to the top of the Xianggongshan mountain and 15 min walk to the bamboo rafts where the true landscape of the 20 CNY bill lies.
The hotel workers don't speak English but do all the efforts to help you out by using the translator. The boss/manager however, speaks perfectly English. If you have WeChat you'll be added to a chat where you can talk to her and ask anything you want. She will also help you with any ticket booking that you need. In a matter of minutes they organized tickets for both the bamboo raft (which in Yangshuo was almost impossible to get if you didn't queue up at 6 am...) and helicopter (highly recommended!). So we were truly impressed by how they helped us out, since we had the idea of what to do but clearly needed this efficiency and local contacts to do it smoothly. The room was very spacious and all amenities needed (they didn't have an iron in the room but it took 2 minutes for them to bring it to our room when we asked :) ). We had a great view on the 4th floor (also very recommendable as the street is very close and the high floor might add some extra privacy. The rooms clearly state the floor when you book them, so take the advantage!). There is some room for improvement in the lobby but we passed on our feedback and they seemed very eager to improve, so we truly believe it can only get better. We weren't told the breakfast options nor saw any facilities to serve it but as an exception we bought some stuff at the mini market right next to the hotel entrance which was very convenient. The check-out was relatively flexible and we were given an extra hour which was a blessing for us after a sweaty hike on the Xianggongshan mountain. All in all we were very happy with our stay!

GGuest UserIt is two streets away from the main street (West Street) so a very nice location to be close to all the restaurants and stores but away from the noise (specially at night). We were at the top floor (no elevator) but had an amazing balcony a nice views of the river. Best bed of our entire trip for sure, would have taken it home if it fit in our luggage. The only thing is that the name is not written anywhere, so it is a bit tricky to find. 10 meters away from the corner entrance there is another hostel called Teaside Inn or something similar. That’s the place you need to go to get the key. Very nice stay all in all, they also rent motorbikes in case you want to get one.

YYuanweihuaThe room is clean and tidy, the service attitude is also very good, you can see the mountain when you open the window⛰️, it is located in the core scenic area of Yulong River, and you can walk to the scenic Jiuxian Pier. Away from the hustle and bustle, hidden in seclusion, it is a perfect accommodation experience.

Very Good
WWangdachuiaaThe room is super big. It's nice to have such facilities in the mountains. I will go there again next time. The only problem is that the doors are made of wood and are a bit bad after a long time. There is a big gap when the door is closed.

GGuest UserReally enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The location was good it was just 10-15 mins away from west street by taxi so it was quiet but easily accessible. The view of the river from the room was amazing and didn't have anything blocking the view.. I didn't expect it to actually look like the pictures on the website but it really was a beautiful room. There was a few letdowns, even though there was daily maid service, the room was pretty dusty when we arrived and there was quite a few bits of wear and tear like peeling plaster on the walls that lowered the standard of the place. The staff were really helpful and went out their way to to help us plan a day trip etc. Overall I'd go back to this place, Its quiet, cheap and has everything you need for a few days.
