Guest UserHidden amidst the karst landscapes of Mingxi Village, the experience at Lux* Chongzuo went far beyond my expectations! The overall aesthetic is sophisticated and elegant, with architecture that blends seamlessly with the mountains and rivers. The lobby frames a stunning panoramic view of the landscape, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable, with balconies directly overlooking the peaks and rice paddies. Every detail exudes quality.
The dining experience was a delightful surprise. Eating in a restaurant surrounded by mountains and water, enjoying the views of the peaks and river while savoring exquisite dishes – a fusion of local flavors and creative cuisine – was a feast for both the eyes and the palate.
It's an immersive embrace of nature: watching the morning mist weave around the green mountains, encountering the glow of the sunset in the evening, boating on the river, and strolling through the countryside, all far from the city's hustle and bustle. The butler service was attentive and thoughtful, making the check-in experience feel truly special. This stay was unparalleled, offering a complete immersion in the poetic beauty of the landscape. It's definitely worth a special trip and comes highly recommended!

Extremely satisfied with this guesthouse! I initially chose this location because the electric scooter parking at Yu Lin Ba (Fish Scale Dam) costs money, so I figured I'd stay here, see the dam, and then rent a scooter. That turned out to be a great decision – the location is incredibly advantageous, and currently, this guesthouse offers the best value and is the prettiest in the area.
The hotel rooms come with washing machines, there's a 'Sky Mirror' on the rooftop, and a kids' pool downstairs. What really stands out is how attentive they are to every detail. Every corner is spotless. When I went to the Sky Mirror at noon, an auntie even specially cleaned the glass. The swimming rings by the pool were all nice and new, not tattered at all. The room also had a Tmall Genie, and the cleaning was impeccable. I arrived early, and they opened one room for me, and I practically watched them prepare the adjacent one. When we checked in, the staff immediately took photos of our license plate to link it to the parking system. The service was incredibly thoughtful, and we even received brown sugar as a parting gift when we checked out. A truly delightful stay!

I booked this guesthouse last minute and it exceeded my expectations. It's a quiet little place tucked away in a bustling area. The location is right at the entrance of Shuolong Street. Across the river is Vietnam, and the border crossing is to the left. They have their own parking area, which is very convenient. Our triple room was on the fifth floor. There's an elevator, which is great for the elderly. The views are expansive. The room has wooden tables and chairs, which adds a nice touch. The food was also delicious. It's a charming little spot with a lot of character.

Shanyao Xiaozhu Guesthouse may sound unassuming, but stepping into the rooms is a pleasant surprise. First, the cleanliness is impeccable; the beds and rooms are spotless, comparable to a five-star hotel. Second, the service is excellent. The owner is very welcoming and responsive to any questions. When we couldn't find Yushui Dam while driving there, he kindly suggested we call him – a truly kind gesture. The guesthouse is conveniently located near the scenic area entrance, easy to find, and very quiet at night. It even has an elevator, which is rare for a guesthouse. The rooms are particularly noteworthy – each one is large and spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering stunning views of the scenic area. I couldn't resist taking several photos. The curtains are automatic, the toilet is a smart toilet, and the bedding is excellent. There's also a table, two chairs, and high-quality toiletries, a hairdryer, and slippers. Having traveled extensively and stayed in various hotels of all levels and star ratings, I feel that Shanyao Xiaozhu Guesthouse offers a five-star experience at an economy price. All 14 of us in our group were extremely satisfied.

I booked this hotel without hesitation solely for the bunk beds with a slide, despite seeing many negative or mixed reviews on Xiaohongshu. To be honest, this phenomenon of villages being densely packed with guesthouses is common in places like Zhoushan too, and as long as there's no noise, I'm perfectly fine with it. The hotel breakfast is very generous; usually, sharing just two portions is enough for an entire family. They also offer different snacks every evening. Renting an electric scooter from the entrance is convenient, and the bicycles provided by the hotel are free. I contacted the concierge in advance to mention my child's birthday, and they kindly provided a complimentary 4-inch cake on the day. So sweet! 🎂

EatPrayTravelLocation of hotel is very convenient for travelers who take the tourist bus from either Chungzuo, Nanning or from Detian waterfalls scenic area. The room we booked had a nice view of the fields and karst mountains. What a beautiful sight to behold indeed. During the day, it can get noisy with all the comings and goings in the village and all around but at night, it was very quiet. The rooftop terrace was very nice and not busy when we were there. Breakfast was enjoyable with steamed buns, corn, soup noodles and boiled sweet potatoes- a healthy start for a very busy day. The very nice lady in charge of breakfast offered us breakfast on our check in day (we arrived at 10:30) and made sure we had enough to eat before sending us off to explore! We had never met a B&B operator who was so caring and generous. On our check out day, even though she was still busy with guests, she rushed out to bid us a fond farewell and a safe onward trip. Front desk and cleaning team were all very friendly, always smiling and helpful. All in all, a very warm and pleasant stay at Mingshi Scenic Area.

The location of this hotel, which I chose for my self-drive trip, was absolutely perfect! It's ideally situated, very close to Detian Waterfall by car, so we could visit the transnational waterfall anytime we wanted. We were also just a short walk from Shuolong Food Street, where we could easily find all sorts of authentic local snacks. It was perfect for both eating and exploring. We happened to be celebrating my child's birthday here, and the owner thoughtfully helped us set up a special birthday scene, which really brought the celebratory atmosphere to life. The room also had a balcony. Looking out, the surrounding landscape was stunningly beautiful, and opening the window revealed a feast for the eyes. It was a trip that perfectly combined beautiful scenery, delicious food, and a sense of occasion – truly a happy and fulfilling experience!

Generally not evaluated, but I feel very good. In the newly opened homestay, we booked two rooms for two nights. The scenery outside the window was very good. The twin rooms on the second floor and the third floor were all floor-to-ceiling windows. The big bed room on the fourth floor had a balcony and I liked it very much. The price was right. The owner of the hotel is very good, and the situation is solved in time. They also opened a drink stall downstairs and sent us juice. I have introduced my friends, the door is the fish scale dam, and the night market stall is downstairs. convenient.

Wonderer in this world
Pros
- excellent views of the river and boats passing by
- convenient location next to the ticket office of the scenic area
- filling breakfast
- helpful owner who also let us charge our EV for free and was ready to help with our luggage
- homestay has its own restaurant
Cons
- the room cleanliness could be much better. There were dirty marks all over the bathroom floor, windows and TV
- poor sound insulation (you can hear your neighbours)
- the village is currently undergoing a lot of construction work - it's clear that the homestay can't change it, however, it would be great if guests could be warned about it in advance. The area is quite dusty
Overall, taking into consideration hygiene and the state of the area around (construction sites), the price was a bit too high for the stay. The views of the nature are unbeatable thought.

It should be a better hotel in the town. The boss also helped me buy tickets at the distribution center the next day. I stayed there for two days. The area around the hotel is quite lively and there are many places to eat.
