Hotéis 5-Star em Guangxi, China

We stayed at this hotel from August 12–17, 2026. It was the best hotel of our entire trip. 1. Location: The hotel is a 30‑minute walk from West Street. However, from 3:30 PM to 11:30 PM, a free shuttle bus runs between the hotel and West Street in both directions – very convenient! The area around the hotel isn't very touristy – there aren't many cafés or shops nearby, so for everything we had to go to West Street. 2. Hotel grounds: The crown jewel of the hotel is certainly its huge swimming pool surrounded by mountains. We had an absolutely unforgettable time swimming in the pool with that view. Unlike most Chinese hotels, the pool is deep (up to 1.7 m) and very large – even with many guests around, nobody got in anyone's way, and we could swim freely. A small downside is that there aren't many chairs or benches around the pool to put your things on, but we always found a spot. Besides the pool, the grounds include a lake (unfortunately the fountains weren't working), a tennis court, and a small walking area with swings. As a suggestion to the hotel: we missed evening lighting. It would be wonderful if the trees, the lake, or the mountains were illuminated, so that after sunset we could take an evening stroll. 3. Service: Deserves the highest praise! The day before our arrival, the manager contacted me on WeChat. When booking the room, I had left a request for a quiet room with a nice view. Since we had a room for three people, all such rooms faced the street and had no balcony. The manager took my request into account and gave us a free upgrade to a room with a balcony (with a stunning mountain view) and added a third bed. The manager, Xiuxiu, is absolutely incredible – she made our stay truly comfortable and took care of us throughout our entire visit. First, she spoke excellent English. Second, she was always available on WeChat and answered all our questions. Third, when we were checking out, my mum left her pendant in the pocket of the bathrobe and was very upset. I wrote to the hotel on WeChat asking them to look for it. Not only was the pendant found, but they also arranged express delivery to my Chinese friend on the very same day. That is professionalism at its best – thank you! Other requests during our stay were also handled promptly, such as changing the bathrobes to ones we preferred or bringing a third set of tableware. We also bought tickets for the Impression Liu Sanjie show at the reception. It was very convenient and cheaper than buying through the show's official WeChat account. The hotel offers many amenities: water, juice, and candies in the lobby, plenty of lounge areas, a shop, a free laundry room, and a gym. Breakfast at the hotel was very convenient. For European tastes, it wasn't extremely varied, but there was enough to choose from. It would be great if the café remained open during the day as well (for an extra charge). 4. Room: As I mentioned, we were upgraded to a room with a balcony. It was very quiet and the view was breathtaking. The room itself was large, with big, comfortable beds. There was a split‑system air conditioner (not a standard wall unit), but it was surprisingly tricky to adjust despite its seemingly simple controls – sometimes it would cool the room too much, and sometimes even when set to 23°C, the temperature would keep rising to 26°C, and so on. A slight inconvenience: the shower is right in the room (as in many Chinese hotels), and there's nowhere to hang a towel without it getting wet. But this wasn't a major issue. The room was cleaned daily: fresh water, tea bags, various kinds of coffee, towel changes, floor mopping! Upon check‑in, we were also greeted with a welcome fruit platter and even some instant noodles (which came in very handy after our journey). The room had a refrigerator and even a dish steriliser. It was quiet inside – we couldn't hear the neighbours, and there was no smell of cigarette smoke.

Amazing hotel with brilliant staff. The view surrounding the hotel is breathtaking. The hotel has everything (including big garden and swimming pool) and provides a 24 hour butler service via Wechat which meant someone was always answering our questions within seconds. They helped arranging food delivery into our room, booking attractions, arranging a driver to take us to Yangshuo (for free in a big air conditioned car), arranging room cleaning time when it's most convinient for us, and so much more. Thank you Kaysen and Mayling! The room was spacious with a big round bed (which turns 360 degrees and very comfortable) and a big bathtub overlooking the beautiful karst mountains. There was also a seperate big shower room, with excellent water pressure. The room and bathrooms are equipped with everything you need. The hotel provided free fruits, water to our room every day and filled up the minibar for free. We also received free afternoon tea (tea, coffee, cakes, fruits, nuts etc) each afternoon. They have also incuded a free professional photo shoot which I loved. We also received an evening dessert delivered into our room to taste the local flavours. The breakfast had great variety, excellent coffee and tea, everything I wanted and more, while enjoying the view from the restaurant. The breakfast, the lunch and dinner were all delicious so we kept having all our meals at the hotel (ordering the food several times to our room which was very convenient). They have free laundry service which can be done all by the hotel or by self service, based on the guest's requirement. I highly recommend the place.

The front desk service was excellent. They guided us to our room during check-in and had already turned on the air conditioning. The next evening, I forgot my makeup remover wipes, and the front desk was very helpful. After checking in, I added the concierge on WeChat, and they were always quick to respond to any issues. The hotel is beautiful and perfectly located right by the Two Rivers and Four Lakes. There's a small gate that leads right out for a post-dinner stroll. Our lake view room faced trees instead of a street, making it exceptionally quiet. I also noticed some international guests staying there. I highly recommend staying here for a short trip and some great photo opportunities.

Located right next to the Qian Gu Qing scenic area, the hotel boasts a beautiful setting with two large public swimming pools—and suites even come with private plunge pools. The buffet afternoon tea and breakfast are quite good; the rice noodles are tastier than those I had on West Street! There’s also a spacious kids’ play area, making it ideal for families traveling with children. Right outside the hotel entrance lies a large lotus pond—my friends joked that we must come back in summer when the lotuses are in full bloom; it’ll surely be stunning!

Staying at the Xi Shi Jin She Hotel was an incredibly healing experience amidst the beautiful landscapes of Yangshuo. The hotel is located right by the Yulong River, and with the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, you're greeted by stunning karst peaks, with bamboo rafts slowly gliding by on the river – it feels like living inside a traditional Chinese ink painting. The room was clean and tidy, the toiletries were of excellent quality, and the facilities were exquisite and comprehensive. The butler service was attentive and thoughtful, and the authentic Guilin rice noodles for breakfast were fresh and delicious. The rooftop infinity pool offered amazing photo opportunities. It's also super convenient for visiting the Ten-Mile Gallery. This is definitely my top choice for a stay in Yangshuo, a perfect experience!

We spent 4 wonderful nights here, and the kindness and attentiveness of the staff was the highlight of our whole trip. We were greeted with a welcome drink, and check in was warm and relaxed. They surprised us with an upgrade to a room with a private balcony overlooking the river, and someone walked us there personally. The room was spotless, and everything in the minibar was complimentary and restocked daily, a small touch that meant a lot. The pool is compact, but we always had it to ourselves, with a stunning view to match. Breakfast was delicious, and eating in the outdoor area made it even better. There is also a spa with very fair prices, which we sadly ran out of time to try. The location is a real plus. Guilin's lively night streets are about a 15 minute walk away, close enough to enjoy but far enough to sleep peacefully. Just across from the hotel, a small local restaurant sells cheap cold beer, perfect for drinking on the balcony. The building shows a little age, but the service and location more than make up for it. Easily 5 stars. At checkout, the team surprised us with a lovely tea box as a farewell gift, a perfect final example of their thoughtfulness. If we return to Guilin, SYYF is our first choice, and we'll look for this brand on future trips around China. Thank you for everything!

A great family-friendly hotel. Five stars go to the glasses-wearing young man at the bell desk for his attentive, friendly, and enthusiastic service. He even helped us communicate with the tricycle driver in the local dialect, making us feel right at home, just like a friend. Another five stars for the hotel's location—far enough from West Street to avoid the crowds and noise, yet just a short walk away, making it super convenient. And a third five stars for the hotel's 'Sky Mirror' rooftop platform, which offers a relaxing atmosphere and stunning views. To say it again: Yangshuo is truly breathtaking!

I had seen so many gorgeous photos of the hotel online before arriving, but being here in person was even better—every snap looked effortlessly Instagram-worthy. Our butler reached out before check-in and helped book activities we were interested in. When they found out there wouldn’t be a fireworks show during our stay, they even specially recorded and shared a video of one for us. In addition to a welcome fruit platter, the room came with cookies, candies, complimentary soft drinks, and plenty of bottled water (they also proactively checked if we needed refills). We ate at the hotel restaurant three times—for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They offer a great mix of Chinese and Western options with plenty of variety. I didn't order heavily, but everything suited my taste, was satisfying, and the breakfast in particular was fantastic! The sunlight streaming over the buffet counter made everything look so fresh and appetizing. Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience. I hope I get to catch the fireworks show on my next visit!

This hotel is perfect for family trips and just chilling out – the experience was fantastic! The hotel environment far exceeded our expectations, tucked away in the mountains. Every photo we took felt like a professional shot. There's an infinity pool, forest hot springs, and so many scenic spots on the hillside, we couldn't stop taking pictures all day. The room was spacious and clean, making for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The staff were very friendly and responsive. The breakfast was delicious, and during leisure time, we could enjoy tea and mountain views, far from the crowds. It's a top choice for a relaxing getaway with friends. Highly recommended!

I spent a long time researching online before finally choosing this hotel as my first stop—and it was absolutely the right choice! The staff were all incredibly friendly: they greeted me warmly upon arrival, and check-in was quick and hassle-free. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and well-maintained, with soft, soothing lighting—perfect for unwinding. The bathroom was immaculate—no water stains or odors—and the vanity area had plenty of space; plus, it featured an absolutely huge bathtub. When I headed out to explore mid-stay, I was able to leave my luggage safely and free of charge at the front desk—so convenient! When I asked for local area recommendations, staff member Jessie Ashley gave me great tips on authentic street food. All service requests—whether deliveries or room service—were responded to promptly, and every team member I encountered was courteous and genuinely attentive. There was no hidden agenda—just sincere, thoughtful service throughout. If you’re driving here, this hotel is an ideal base. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely stay here again next time!
