Boutique Hotels in Guangxi, China

Overall, it's pretty good and looks exactly like the pictures online. The only downside is that parking isn't very convenient; we had to walk about 5 minutes, which was a hassle with all our luggage and the rain. The front desk staff was lovely, following up on our experience both before and after check-in, which was excellent! The hotel facilities are also quite new, and the cleanliness is good!

Gulong Stay Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5) I recently stayed near Gulong Canyon and had a wonderful experience overall. The area is surrounded by lush green mountains and rivers, so the views are absolutely stunning, especially in the early morning with mist in the valley. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and had a rustic charm that fit the natural setting. The main attraction — the glass bridge and skywalk — was breathtaking (and a little scary if you’re afraid of heights). Staff were friendly and helpful, though English was limited, so having a translation app helped. Local food was fresh and tasty, especially the river fish dishes. One tip: bring comfortable walking shoes and be prepared for some steep climbs. It’s best to visit on weekdays to avoid heavy crowds. Would I come back? Definitely — especially to enjoy more hiking trails and maybe try the zipline next time.

Upon check-in, the front desk attendant upgraded my room to the 49th floor. The view is fantastic, offering a panoramic sight of the Liujiang River, and the night view is equally stunning. The room size is decent, though some facilities could use an upgrade. For instance, there's no master switch by the bed, so I had to get up to turn off the lights before sleeping. The curtains aren't automatic, and the bathroom only has a handheld shower, no rainfall showerhead. They also only provide two bottles of water. Overall, the service was good; the front desk lady accommodated my request for a late checkout. For breakfast, the gravy for the freshly made Guilin rice noodles was quite tasty, but the self-serve Chinese fried rice and dishes had limited options. The location is excellent, away from the crowded Wuxing Street area. However, Poly Plaza and the snack street downstairs offer almost all of Liuzhou's local specialties, including luosifen, tapioca pudding, and duck legs. It's also very convenient to catch a taxi to tourist attractions.

Located opposite a pretty lake, nice for a walk, the hotel is good for leisure and business travellers. The rooms are large and well equipped. The shower was particularly nice and the bed is comfortable. The hotel is very clean. Fortunately I was with my Chinese speaking partner otherwise check in may have been a longer process. The breakfast was also fine but more orientated to local audience - albeit there is bread, fruit, eggs. Coffee at breakfast is not so good.

Found a gem! This hotel completely redefined my accommodation experience – an absolute ceiling-breaker with zero complaints and so many pleasant surprises. Check-in at the front desk was incredibly smooth, and Grace, one of the staff members, was genuinely warm and thoughtful, not just putting on a show. The room was so clean it would make any detail-oriented person ecstatic. The bedding was so soft it felt like sinking into a cloud, and the bathroom experience was top-notch with high-quality amenities. The breakfast offerings weren't overwhelming but everything was exquisite, with incredibly fresh ingredients, and even the condiments were meticulously prepared. The location is super convenient yet surprisingly quiet, allowing me to hear the gentle breeze outside my window at night, and it's perfect for shopping and getting around. The entire experience was fantastic, filled with thoughtful details. This hotel has definitely made it onto my list of go-to places to stay – book it, you won't regret it!

This is the best Wyndham hotel I've stayed at so far. There's plenty of parking, the soundproofing is excellent, and I slept very well. The breakfast incorporates some local specialties and has a wide variety of options. It would be even better if the lobby had a display area showcasing local specialties from various counties.

This is an older five-star hotel, and while the facilities are indeed dated, they are very well-maintained and clean. The bedding is comfortable, and the breakfast is excellent, meeting five-star standards. The location is fantastic, making it convenient to get anywhere. It's right next to Wuxiang Hangyang City, which is very popular, and Wuxiang MixC is also within walking distance. Overall, it offers great value for money.

Our stay was absolutely fantastic! The room was spacious and bright, and the amenities were both high-quality and stylish. They really nailed the tech-savvy, comfortable vibe with things like electric toothbrushes, a projector for movies, a sleep sound machine, and a plumbed-in water dispenser. All the appliances in the room were smart and could be voice-controlled. The hotel staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and patient. This is a hotel I'd highly recommend, from its facilities to its service.

The high-altitude Shangri-La definitely lives up to its name, located on the 88th floor with unparalleled views. The sky lobby is on the 68th floor. Shangri-La's quality has always been reliable. Room amenities: The room size is generous, and the floor-to-ceiling windows offer fantastic views both day and night. The bathtub is also large, making for a very comfortable soak. Breakfast: The selection is rich, and there are plenty of seats, so it never feels too crowded. The waitstaff provides excellent service. The hotel is connected to MixC on the first floor, making dining and shopping incredibly convenient. Taxis are also readily available. The BBQ downstairs in the evening is delicious. The only minor drawback was the quality of the bath towels, which could be improved.

This was the best hotel we stayed at during our Guilin trip. For the price we paid during the off-season, considering the environment and service, it was incredibly good value for money for a family with kids! The restaurant's ambiance and food were also excellent. On Xiaonian Eve, three adults and one child ordered seven substantial dishes and it only cost 300 yuan. The complimentary photo shoot with Yao ethnic costumes was also great and produced fantastic pictures; our whole family was very satisfied. The breakfast was delicious too. If we ever go back to Yangshuo, we'll definitely choose to stay here for two more nights. If you have two kids, one old enough for photos and the younger one for the playground, don't even think twice – just book it!
