Romantic Hotels in Guangxi, China

Extremely satisfied, the kind of place I'd stay at again if I visit Liuzhou. 1. The location is excellent. You can see the hot springs from both the room and the rooftop, and it's also very convenient to get to the ground level for prime viewing spots. There are plenty of dining, drinking, and entertainment options nearby. Wuxing Street has lots of great food, like Luosifen (snail noodles), duck feet hotpot, sweet soup, fried ice, etc. There are also many comfortable hair washing places to choose from. You can rent electric scooters right outside, and I easily found a shared Wuling Hongguang (mini-van) just a short walk away. Qingyun Market is also within walking distance. 2. The service is very thoughtful. The housekeeper was very enthusiastic and their suggestions were all helpful. The doorman was especially responsible, always helping with luggage. 3. The room is very spacious, and the pillows are comfortable. There's also parking available downstairs. 4. It's about a 30-minute drive to the train station, and 15 minutes to other destinations.

The hotel is in a quiet street but still very close to all the main attractions. Our housekeepers, Lynn and Yalina, were so helpful and sweet. They helped us contact drivers last minute when we couldn’t get a DiDi, buy attraction tickets and were very accommodating to even our small requests. The view from our hotel room in building 8 were gorgeous and the hotel room was well stocked with snacks and very clean. We would stay here again if we came back to Yangshuo! The hotel also gave us a complimentary photoshoot. Our photographer Xiao Mo took gorgeous photos for us and they looked great even with no editing.

Found a super convenient place to stay right in the heart of Guilin. The hotel is located right at the entrance of Zheng Yang Pedestrian Street, so you step out directly into a lively atmosphere. The parking lot is just a 200-meter walk away, and if you contact them in advance, they'll even help you with your luggage – the whole process was very thoughtful. The room was clean and elegant, with city views right outside the window. The service was attentive, and the facilities were comprehensive. Every moment spent here felt comfortable and reassuring.

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.

Amenities: Smart home system, disinfection cabinet, mini-fridge, wireless charger, iron, water dispenser, Tencent VIP access – perfect for family vacations. Cleanliness: Spotless and tidy, the best place I've stayed during my trip, comparable to a five-star hotel. Environment: Located by Rong Lake, within walking distance to Sun and Moon Pagodas and Elephant Trunk Hill; a tranquil spot amidst the bustling city. Service: Warm, attentive, and available 24/7; they contacted us proactively and responded promptly to our requests.

My stay at Poetry & Faraway Li River Courtyard definitely didn't disappoint; it truly deserves its spot on the 'Beautiful Scenery' hotel list. I booked a double-sided view room, and as soon as I walked in, I could see both the Li River and Fubo Hill simultaneously. The view was incredibly expansive, and the scenery truly lived up to its reputation. The room was meticulously clean, the bedding was pristine and soft, and the bathroom had no water stains or odors. You could tell there was a lot of care put into the details, making for a very comfortable and reassuring stay. The butler service was also very attentive, communicating throughout my stay and helping with travel arrangements, which saved me a lot of hassle. The hotel also has a laundry room, which is very convenient for travelers – a thoughtful detail. Breakfast was served on the 6th floor, and the Guilin rice noodles were authentic. Eating while enjoying the river view really added to the experience. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, and I'll definitely consider coming back here on my next visit to Guilin.

Facilities: The rooftop infinity pool is incredibly photogenic, and there's a children's park right outside the door that my kids absolutely loved. The room even had children's books, which they were instantly engrossed in. Cleanliness: The room was spotless, and the bedding was super comfortable—I slept like a baby. Ambiance: The decor was very whimsical and kid-friendly; the floor mat and tent in the room were my children's favorites. Service: The front desk staff were friendly, responsive, and paid attention to the small details, making for a fantastic experience. I was so satisfied with my first stay that I immediately booked another hotel from the same brand for our trip to Yangshuo the next day.

I really love this hotel. I stumbled upon it during a road trip and ever since, I bring my family here a few times every year. The rooms, environment, service, hot springs, and even the surrounding restaurants are all excellent. My favorite is the large suite; the views are fantastic, and the room itself is great, which is why I always book this room type. However, I have to give a bad review for room 512 in Building B this time. 1. **Awful smell in the hot springs.** After the apartments next to the hotel were developed, the foot traffic increased, and I understand it gets busy during Chinese New Year. However, the facilities and service severely lagged behind. This visit was after the holiday rush, on a weekday. I checked in at 2 PM, went for a swim in the pool, and then headed up the mountain to the hot springs. To my dismay, several pools on the mountainside reeked of a foul odor. It was so bad I didn't even consider getting in. I went straight to the mountaintop, and the area around the mountaintop pool also had this disgusting smell. My mood was instantly ruined, and I went back to my room. Is it reasonable to change the water once a day with normal traffic, and still only once a day when the New Year traffic doubles? The pools already stank by 2 PM. Is this my first day's hotel experience? Don't tell me it's a natural smell from the hot springs; I've been here many times, and it's never smelled like this, not even the next morning when I went for a dip. 2. **No bath towels.** I came out of the 24-degree pool looking for a bath towel. All the way to the hot stone therapy area on the mountaintop, there wasn't a single dry towel. Finally, I saw a transport cart going up the mountain, so I went over and spoke to the driver. I ended up moving a stack of towels from the cart myself and putting them in the towel cabinet before I could get one. If this were a child, they would have caught a cold by then. 3. **Lack of service.** In the changing rooms and the mountaintop food court, all the tables and chairs were piled with garbage, and used towels were strewn everywhere. Absolutely no one was cleaning up. I finally found a clean table at the very edge of the newly opened food court, closest to area C. All my good spirits were gone. During holidays, there's heavy foot traffic, and fewer staff. For customers, the room rate is higher, but the experience is significantly worse. 4. **Outdated room facilities.** With my mood already ruined and unable to enjoy the hot springs, I could only go back to the room. My child wanted to watch TV, but the TV was as slow and laggy as something from 20 years ago. It's been 26 years, seriously! A smart TV doesn't cost much. Even the staff admitted they don't watch TVs like that. Then my wife needed to charge her phone, and both bedside outlets were broken, showing signs of having short-circuited. This is a serious fire and electrocution hazard. When I went to shower, the showerhead sprayed water everywhere, drenching me. And in such a large suite, one Wi-Fi hotspot couldn't even cover it. The Wi-Fi signal was completely dead near the hot spring pool and the toilet. This is a 1700 RMB room, and over 2000 RMB during holidays. If it were a 300 RMB guesthouse, I wouldn't complain, but for a 2000 RMB room, are these facilities acceptable?

The location is quiet yet convenient for getting around, not too noisy but still easily accessible. **Cleanliness**: Very clean. **Ambiance**: The overall environment feels high-quality and worth the price. It's not like those regular guesthouses that jack up prices to over a thousand during peak season but have cheap decor. **Breakfast**: A rich variety of options, the rice noodles were delicious, and the corn juice was great. **Service**: Everyone was excellent, always greeting you when they saw you. Highly recommend.

Shangri-La Nanning is absolutely fantastic! All guest rooms are located above the 72nd floor, making it a true 'hotel in the clouds.' My room was on the 78th floor, and it was impeccably clean with a perfect layout. The 180-degree floor-to-ceiling window offered a stunning view, and the bedding was incredibly comfortable. The hotel is directly connected to MixC Mall, with the mall entrance right on the first floor, making shopping, dining, and getting around extremely convenient. Jenna's service was excellent – she was warm, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive, always responding promptly to my needs and resolving any issues. The duty managers, Colin, Rose, Helen, and Betsy, were all wonderful too. Highly, highly recommend! 🌹🌹🌹
