Right opposite the iconic Elephant Trunk Hill, Jolie Vue Boutique Hotel Guilin(Golden Oriole Hotel Guilin) is located by the picturesque Li River. WiFi access is available in the entire property.

TheJolie Vue Boutique Hotel Guilin(Golden Oriole Hotel Guilin) offers a restaurant serving both Chinese and Western cuisines.

Pleasantly surprised that Jolie Vue Boutique Hotel was clean and modern in literally the middle of the city right on the river and a block away from the pedestrian walking street. Hotel staff were kind and helpful. Agree that there’s no need to go into Elephant trunk hill park because you get a great view from the hotel rooftop eating breakfast. Exceeded our expectations!

Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    The hotel has a beautiful interior design, as befits a museum. It so happened that we stayed in three different rooms in the hotel during our stay. All rooms were clean, functional, and very nice. Sympathetic, polite and helpful staff who spoke English. We had no problem leaving our luggage for our one-day trip to Yangchuo. The location of the hotel is right next to the lakes and the park surrounding them. I highly recommend this hotel

    Boutique hotel with excellent hospitality. Clean and comfortable and location was good. Note that all rooms are Japanese tatami type and therefore low mattress on the raised floor. Unfortunately, my Dad had a knee problem so getting on and off the low bed was an issue for him. Otherwise, the hotel was very good with a local vibe. Get a higher floor room with a view. Worth it. Nothing to see on the lower levels.

    Unique hotel, very comfortable beds, hot showers, fantastic breakfast, beautiful interior design, great location beside river and lake park. We had a great night there listening to all the music and dancing on the edge of the lakes. Wonderful helpful and friendly staff, who very efficiently arranged all our activities and tours for us. We will be back.

    This is a proper boutique hotel. The owner is warm and friendly and can’t do enough for you. The room lovely and big and the bed super comfy. The scenery outside the hotel is spectacular and the village the hotel sits in is quaint and useful.

    It’s rather cozy place, design of the hotel is very attractive and unusual…. Staff speak more or less good English and react to your inquiries without any delays. They arranged for me the river cruise and transfer from the airport, that was so convenient and price was affordable.

    A boutique hotel, close to the lakes with the sun and moon pagoudes, beautifully designed in an ancient Chinese style. The team is outstanding, eager to assist with everthing: transportation and guiding in Longji, a cruse to Yangshuo etc, with a real warm and personal attention. This was priceless to us since Guilin was our first spot in China after Hong Kong and we really needed a help. Our scores are 10 since we cannot score higher. Best hotel ever!

    The room was perfect with very nice design, attention to details, very comfortable, very clean and spacious. Congratulations to the designer. In a very quiet location, very accessible from town with Didi very easy to get. Nice view on the karst around. Trip organised by the hotel was tailored for me and I had a wonderful time. Very good breakfast made in the kitchen in front of you. Very helpful staff that really did their best even if demands were not really about the hotel. Very good value for money.
