    The facility is very old, so don't expect very new forniture and building. The hotel is very big so it is always crowded.

    The hotel is in the city centre of Guilin and this is the most important thing. You can easily go around by foot to the pagodas, night markets and so on.

    Wifi in the hotel was poor. Both in the lobby and in our rooms. Fortunately, we had our own Chinese simcard and we just turned off the hotel wifi.

    This must be the best location if you are visiting as a touristic Guilin. The hotel overlooks a Lake, which is always bustling with tourists and very vibey. The lake is lit up and is beautiful to walk around at night and watch locals and tourists enjoying all the facilities and the music and dancing. It is right around the corner from a very busy food pedestrian mall and restaurants, where you are certain to find a meal that will suit you. Our room was spacious and we chose the lake view - good move! Rooms and facilities are kept clean all the time. There is a western style breakfast for those not up to the challenge in the morning and we got by on that. Nothing to rave about but also, more than adequate for our needs. On the first night, we ate in the hotel restaurant, but you would do well to venture out into the street for some good food.

    Had a sense that furniture and rooms environment were not renovated for a long time, and signs of years usage and different damages were visible. I had choose this hotel, because it has unique feature with human made waterfall on the building facade, but unfortunately it was broken:(

    (1) Location is very close to all key locations; (2) very kind and english spoken staff on the reception desk; (3) there are several good restaurants near by hotel; (4) got in room some local soup with something like a lotos, berries and nuts, as a compliment from hotel - it was very nice👍🏻

    The check-in/check-out procedures are too long and too bothersome - The staff doesn't speak English that well - Instead of paying the room fee & giving a caution fee apart that will be easy to refund they mix everything and that's a mess

    The location - The swimming pool - The room

    No strict no smoking area. The cleaning liquid used should be clean.

    The room is spacious and AC keeps us cooling in the midst of extreme heat. The location is excellent yet the hotel staff should try hard to implement no smoking policy. The hotel restaurant is just average.

    - the smoking area is directly at the entrance, which is not nice when you are waiting for a cab. - you had to wear a silly bathing cap for swimming, which you can buy there for 10 yuan. I don't really see the use of the caps (especially because they werent water proof), but a 5 star hotel should provide them complementary.

    - the location is very convenient, nearby some of the main attractions of Guilin. - the hotel waterfall, which actually only runs for 15 minutes from 8.30pm every day at the back of the hotel, is fun to see (for all, also if you are not a guest); - the enormous hotel swimming pool with extra's (hot tub, sauna, steam bath, excellent view of Guilin) was a big plus, especially during the summer furnace. It was the reason we booked here, especially so our 8 year old could swim; - the room was great, good space, comfortable beds, clean, excellent view of Guilin; - the luxureous grand lobby, with a giant wooden painting of Guilin, was nice to see; - there is an in house booking office to book activities. It seemed the lady new good English, but my wife arranged the bookings afterwards in Chinese, so I can't confirm that.

    The only problem that I had was that there was so much cigarette smoke. Men smoking in the lobby, smoke in the hallway, and the room had a cigarette smell. It wouldn’t be a problem if it were just me but traveling with a baby made the stay a bit difficult.

    The hotel is in a perfect location and is very easy to walk around. The staff was really helpful and so kind, they really made the stay worth it. The bathroom was large and had a really nice shower/ bath.

    Not much but if i had to say something that would be that you need to wear a swimming cap in the pool but i did not have one so i had to buy one. The toilet flush was not working properly.

    Great view on the lake, superbe location next to major attraction and the pedestrian street. Rooms were comfy and warm. Extra bed was prepared in advance and we were also given two communicating room without having requested it. Every night a hot drink is given for each guest. Breakfast buffet is good with plenty of choice. On our day of departure they gave us a take away breakfast as we left the hotel before the opening of the restaurant. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the Lijiang waterfall hotel.
