Secret Courtyard Resort Hotel, hotel in Guilin

Positioned along Taohua River, Secret Courtyard Resort Hotel boasts a Chinese-style courtyard and is located in Lujia Village, just 2 km from downtown Guilin.

The hotel surrounding is scenic, morning coffee is surprisingly good. We appreciate the housekeeper Xiao Ming and the tour manager Xiao Qin efforts to ensure we are comfortable and complete my foodie list search. Their excellent service made our Guilin trip a memorable tour.

Riverside Inn Guilin Central, hotel in Guilin

Offering river views and tour tickets for Guilin or Yangshuo, Riverside Inn Guilin is a tranquil hideaway ideally located in the centre of Guilin.

The location is very close to bus stops from either Guilin West or North train stations. It is also within walking distance to a few major sites. Some buses also stop close to the sites, for $2 Chinese Yuan per person, it is a very good deal. Need to have exact change for the bus ride. Some older bus do not have the means for electronic payment. We stayed in two different rooms, River view with tatami and deluxe family room. Both were very good rooms, excellent water pressure and rain shower was a delight! The room facing the River was a bit noisy during early evening but was not a problem later in the night, when all activities in the nearby park finished and participants dispersed. The deluxe family room, which was facing the inner alley, was very quiet. We did not have breakfast included with the room, but nearby are eateries and a very good bakery. A supermarket is also nearby. We also appreciate the excellent and thorough information provided by the hotel regarding how to get to the hotel from whatever mode of transportation one is taking.

Aroma Tea House Former Jing Guan Ming Lou Museum Hotel, hotel in Guilin

Right opposite Two Rivers and Four Lakes, Guilin Rong Lake Aroma Tea House, formerly Jing Guan Ming Lou Museum Hotel, is located in the city centre.

The staff was very nice and helpful, nearly fluent in english. If you are interested, a lot of program is offered and could be organised for you. The location is great, nearby the train Station ( 25 min. Walk) and the river and seas. The furnishing is very pretty and special. The Breakfast was very tasty - Chinese and Continental as most of the guests were non-chinese. It was possible to have Breakfast 30 min earlier as offered, because we had to leave. Thanks again.

Guilin Bonjour Boutique Hotel, hotel in Guilin

Guilin Bonjour Boutique Hotel features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Guilin.

We liked everything! The hotel is in an ancient village of Lujiacun, a bit far from the city centre but provides a tranquil and relaxing atmosphere for guests to relax in after a busy day of exploring. Starting from our arrival all the way to our reluctant departure, hotel staff treated us like VIPs. Maggie was waiting for us at the roadside, with umbrellas since it was drizzling a bit, and walked with us to the hotel. She helped carry our heavy backpacks up (no elevators) to our second floor room as well, which was much appreciated. A fruit platter and tea was served as a welcome treat. We enjoyed the various breakfast options offered, which was made fresh, every morning. Hai-Yan, the other lady whom we met as well, gave us pointers on sites to visit. She walked with us to the beginning of a walking trail to Reed Flute Caves to ensure that we embarked on the right trail for the walk. Everything we needed, they tried their best to help. We would definitely recommend this hotel for a very relaxing stay. It is very quiet at night, and close by is a restaurant where one can try local dishes. Also small street eateries are available around the village during the day. It is a bit far from the city center but a taxi ride will get you there in 15 minutes. Staff can arrange taxi or any excursion for their guests as well.

    Guilin's food and accommodation are really cheap in terms of it's a tourist city. Nice city to spend few days in. Compare to Yangshuo and Xingping Gu Zhen, Guilin is much clamer, less commercial.

    桂林山水甲天下、人为保护意识差。酒店民宿管理亟待加强。

    桂林山水甲天下、人为保护意识差。酒店民宿管理亟待加强。临江有闲别院酒店的住宿体验如下:This hotel specializes in scamming and mistreating unsuspecting foreigners. I was placed in a room with over 60 mosquitoes and recorded video footage. Although the staff changed my room, the 2nd room also had over 60 mosquitoes. They take care of mosquitoes better than they take care of guests. The staff then just gave me an electric fly swatter and told me to "deal with it". The TV was also broken. I asked the staff about it and they claimed I "didn't know how to turn it on and was operating it wrong". Even though I kindly asked them to show me how to turn it on, they were absolutely disrespectful in their refusal. I have photo and video footage of not only mosquitoes and flies. Horrific experience, avoid this place at all costs.

    Guilin is a magical city, with beautiful views everywhere.

    Guilin is a magical city, with beautiful views everywhere. The Prince's Palace is slightly older than the Forbidden City in Beijing and has many parts to explore. The climb to the top of the Solitary Beauty Peak at the back of Jingjiang Prince’s Palace at sunset is stunning. Karst scenery is the backdrop to a diverse and decorated skyline. Once darkness arrives, the city comes alive with lights everywhere. Glowing Bridges, boats, islands, ancient relics and the iconic Sun and Moon Temples towering over the water create a carnival for the eyes. Musicians and dancers fill the air and their joyous parades spill out along the walkways. The waterways ring the city and there are boat cruises. The boulevards downtown have wide sidewalks and are tree lined, which makes for pleasant strolling. There are something like 7 different bridges all with different scenic views of the waterways that were once part of the defense system for the ancient rulers. Guilin has been a poplular tourist destination for years, so there are a fair amount of English speakers and hip coffee houses and restaurants. It is also a jumping off point for tours to the Longji Rice Terraces, Ancient Villages and Li River cruises. All in all, we wished we had more allowed more time in Guilin as the people are charming and there were more museums and parks to explore.

    Guilin is a very colourful city, especially at night. The markets have handmade items to buy, lots of sweet mandarins and kumquats as well. The city Centre has a selection of quaint Chinese Restaurants and western bars. Many of the locals speak very good English which makes communication easier. A truly delightful place to visit with many interesting places to explore just outside the city.

    Guilin is a very nice place for relaxation, people are very kind and as a small city, all activities are within walking distance. If you want to see the real beauty of Guilin, it's better to go to Xinping where you can enjoy the old town, nice mountains (drawn on 20 Yuan banknote), and river cruise. Also, you can go to the elephant trunk park (make it around the afternoon). Impression light show in Yangshou is not as expected. so you may escape it. Reed flute cave is nice medium-size one, if you have been to another one, you may escape it. All in all, it's worth to visit the city and enjoy nature. Don't forget to install Didi taxi service. It's available in English.

    Guilin taxi drivers understand marketing and customer service and my Goo Hotel was efficient, but l have passed thru Guilin many times only to find the city beautiful but people in general not really very friendly.... especially if you don't speak Chinese. It is pretty clear that all the people want is your money. l have lived in Zhuhai for 18 years and avoid Guilin other than just passing through on my way to Yangshuo...or Longji Titian. LM sorry.

    Nestled in a charming ancient village amid the bustling post-industrial city of Guilin, this small and bucolic hotel stands out. The rooms are an absolute delight—comfortable and tastefully decorated. The owner and his mum efficiently manage the place. His tremendous help elevated our trip to another level, giving us precious recommendations and smoothing out the bumps along the way. As road to Chinese countryside/2nd tiers-city tourism can be really though and bumpy sometimes.

    The location is very good. It's close to the center. Just a short bus ride and you can get anywhere in the city. If you want to hike up some mountains or relax at a quieter place, you can visit Seven Star Park, which is right next to the hotel. The room and bathroom were clean. The owners were very friendly and did speak english. I even had the pleasure of enjoying dinner with the owners family at Moonfestival.

    Location was great, just facing the river, and close to a pedestrian street, with lots of restaurants and food options. Our room's view was stoning! And the room was comfortable and modern. The front desk team was outstanding, very helpful, and helped us with a minor issue we had at this trip. I highly recommend this hotel!
