Inns in Guangxi, China

I had a wonderful stay at Qing San She Art Inn — a charming and beautifully designed boutique inn tucked into the historic Dongxi Lane area of Guilin. Its atmosphere blends artistic charm with classic Chinese aesthetic elements, making it a truly memorable place to stay.  📍 Fantastic Location The inn is right by Zhengyang Pedestrian Street and vibrant local eateries and shops, so everything is within easy walking distance — perfect for exploring Guilin on foot.  🏡 Beautiful Design & Comfortable Rooms The interior and rooms are stylishly curated with a relaxed, artistic vibe, featuring tasteful décor, clean and spacious layouts, and thoughtful touches like quality amenities and coffee facilities. Many guests noted how the space felt both peaceful and beautifully maintained.  👩💼 Warm & Attentive Service One of the standout aspects of Qing San She is its exceptional staff. Guests praised the team for being friendly, helpful, and fluent in multiple languages (English, Mandarin and Cantonese), always ready to assist with check-in, local tips, and special requests.  They even personalized experiences — like early check-in, seasonal room touches, thoughtful decorations, and sweet gestures — that made the stay feel warm and welcoming.  🍵 Extras & Guest-Focused Touches The common areas are lovely, with complimentary tea/coffee and spaces to relax, and the overall vibe encourages slow mornings and leisurely evenings after a day of sightseeing. 

”Cozy 3-night stay! The hotel's setting is lovely, with a beautiful river view that made my stay even more enjoyable. The rooms are immaculate and super comfy - I barely wanted to leave! The location is perfect, with plenty of nearby attractions and amenities just a short walk away. And, I must say, the hotel's warmth and hospitality made me feel right at home. I spent my nights snug inside my room, sipping beer and enjoying the chill vibes - it was the perfect way to recharge. Highly recommend this hotel for its cleanliness, comfort, and great location. Five stars!”

The location is fantastic, right by the river – quiet yet close to the action. It's just a ten-minute walk to Elephant Trunk Hill, and there's a bus stop right outside. Cross the bridge and you'll find tons of places to eat and drink. The owner is really warm and kind, and the hotel environment is lovely. Plus, there's an incredibly cute little cat! Everything was perfect, super value for money.~ The only minor issue might be that during the day, people chatting and singing by the river downstairs can be a little noisy, but the owner thoughtfully provides earplugs.

Facilities: The room was very small, just a bed and a table. We booked a quad room, and it still only had one table and one chair. Hygiene: It was acceptable, within a tolerable range. Environment: The hotel felt like it was in the old town. The sign was tiny; we drove past it the first time without noticing. We had to park nearby and walk to find it. You can park in a lot next door (not managed by the hotel), which costs extra (10 yuan per day, counted until 12 PM the next day). It's about a 20-minute walk from Elephant Trunk Hill scenic area, so it's a bit far, but you can use shared bikes. It's best to avoid taxis in the city; traffic gets very congested.

I gave it five stars because it was the only five stars. I was really satisfied and it changed my perception of Guangxi. I booked a standard room at first, but later I found that there was a place where the auntie had not cleaned it, so I reported it to the front desk. The hotel handled it very well and immediately brought fruits and breakfast coupons (we booked without breakfast) to calm us down. Later, I suggested changing the room, and the hotel agreed, and changed it to a family suite for us, which made us embarrassed, because it was a very early flight, and the hotel also thoughtfully prepared bread and other things for us as breakfast, which was very good. Let's talk about the hotel. It is located in the ancient city, the environment is very good, and it is also quite quiet. I wanted to find a place with few people on May Day, so I made a strategy and booked a five-day tour in Guangxi. I went to Nanning and Chongzuo. The natural scenery is very beautiful, suitable for people who have been in the city for a long time. I feel that the locals are all slow-paced, and the people are very good and enthusiastic.

Beautiful resort in a beautiful location. The room was beautiful (although it can help having a little refurbishment, especially the bathroom). The staff is incredible, nice friendly and always trying to help and even if they don't speak English the communication was so easy with everyone. They gave us a room with a beautiful balcony with view and recommendations on restaurants in the area. Highly recommend it

The location is very good! Right at the location of the dragon claw banyan tree. Sanitation: Very clean! We also upgraded to a room with a view. In the morning, we can see the beautiful scenery when we open the window. It's great! Service: The boss is very good! We also gave them their specialty rice noodles and the fruit they picked, Wogan. I will definitely recommend it to my friends, especially sitting on the roof of his house to drink tea and enjoy the view. It is simply a paradise on earth.

Yangshuo in the off-season is an absolute paradise for introverts and budget travelers! No crowds, no queues anywhere. Affordable prices, the guesthouse rates were an absolute steal. 🍀Found this guesthouse on XC (travel platform). It's within walking distance of the 'Impression Sanjie Liu' show. The guesthouse offers electric scooter rentals. Cruising around on the scooter was worry-free and super convenient for getting to places like Ten-Mile Gallery and West Street. 🍀Spacious room with a balcony and bathtub. Such a big room, and it was only about 100 RMB per person. The prices here are truly incredible. After a long day of sightseeing, coming back to the guesthouse and taking a relaxing bath just washes away all the fatigue, fully recharging you for the next day's adventures. 🍀Scenic views everywhere, both downstairs and upstairs. Especially the 'Sky Mirror' on the rooftop – it's fantastic for photos! You could spend half a day just taking pictures up there. 🍀Smiling service + attention to detail 👍 The front desk staff was incredibly thoughtful and even arranged one-on-one butler service. They provided various travel guides (even including photography tips!). The lady who cooked breakfast even added extra rice noodles for me, worried I wouldn't have enough to eat 😂😂😂. They even wiped down the rented electric scooter daily. Talk about feeling right at home! If you're looking for a guesthouse with all these amazing perks, this is the one!

I have to praise this store. It has a very high cost performance. The view at the door is really amazing. It is also very convenient to go to the scenic spot. The boss lady will actively persuade you to have breakfast in the morning, cook noodles for you, and call the sightseeing bus to pick you up at the door. There is a small episode. I left my gold bracelet in the hotel. The boss lady was not afraid of the trouble to look for it for two days. After finding it, she sent it to me. The boss lady is very kind. It is right to go to her house for her good character.

When I came to Huangyao, the happiness was given by the inn. I was lucky to book the last room of this inn during the Spring Festival. The room went in to give me a quiet experience, I really want time to be still. I really like the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, and the roof, simple. There is also a small balcony next to it, you can see the beautiful lake and fireworks. Next time I come, I have to live here. It is very close to the Solitaire, very convenient, and the inn has two doors before and after, which is very pleasant.
