Romantic Hotels in Longsheng

If you get the chance to visit Longji/Longsheng to hike through the amazing rice paddies, then you absolutely must stay at Li'An Lodge. The rooms are lovely, clean and quaint, and a cultural alternative to the more modern options in the larger cities. The lodge is run by Aaron who goes above and beyond to help visitors, give local recs, and speaks perfect English. He will also help you avoid any tourist traps.  Li'An lodge is also built on the highest point so you have a fabulous view, and is situated right at the starting point of the main hike in local area. The rooms give you a great view of the rice paddies and the village.  The food is simple and great, or you can eat around the town, which is very atmospheric. We came in the low season end of March, which was misty but fab and we had most of the places to ourselves.  Really can't recommend enough. If you get to Guilinxi (station) they will send a driver to get you. You can also book directly with the hotel over email with Aaron which is easy and efficient. 

This guesthouse stay was truly fantastic, probably the most delightful part of my entire Guilin trip. The location and view are simply unbeatable. As soon as you open the window, you're greeted by the stunning, layered terraced fields. Sitting on the balcony with a cup of coffee, just relaxing, makes time slow down. The facilities are also excellent, making for a comfortable and worry-free stay. The restaurant is on the rooftop terrace. We ordered the bamboo tube chicken and beer duck, both authentic and delicious. The owner even treated us to some homemade rice wine, which was sweet and delightful – a complete surprise. What impressed me most was the owner and staff's warm and thoughtful hospitality. They proactively helped wash our clothes and returned them to our room, patiently explained fun routes and lesser-known attractions nearby, and even kindly arranged transportation to and from the Dazhai parking lot and halfway up the mountain. We didn't have to worry about transportation at all during our entire stay. From the scenery and food to the service, every detail was carefully considered. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the Longji Terraces; it's absolutely worth the trip!

This hotel is in Dazhai Village overlooking the vast padi field, reachable only by walking about 500m through narrow paths from the drop off point. Don't expect top notch facilities from a village hotel but the amenities are decent enough with free wifi, hot shower & TV. However, the temptation of exploring the stunning padi fields is more than enough to make me want to come back to this hotel. Host is also very hospitable and helpful. Helped arrange transport for me back to the train station.

The guesthouse is located a short walk from the viewing platform of the Longji Rice Terraces No. 1 Scenic Area. The rooms are clean, and the balcony offers beautiful views of the terraces. The owners, a husband and wife, are warm and generous; the husband, in particular, was very helpful in carrying luggage up and down the stairs, which was very touching. Choosing to stay here is a good option.

An absolute gem in the Longji Rice Terraces – don’t miss it! We absolutely loved our stay at Moro. The hotel itself is beautiful, with breathtaking views over the rice terraces and a perfect location for exploring the area on foot. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean, and waking up surrounded by this incredible landscape is truly special. But what really made our stay unforgettable was the amazing staff. Everyone was exceptionally kind, welcoming and genuinely caring. Whatever we needed, they were always there to help, finding a solution to every little problem and making sure everything was easy for us throughout our stay. Their warmth, attention and willingness to help went far beyond what we expected and made us feel incredibly well looked after. Another huge highlight was the food. We had both lunch and dinner at the hotel and everything was absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh and local, the dishes were beautifully prepared, and honestly every single thing we tried was excellent. Some of the best food we had during our entire trip to China! We genuinely cannot recommend Moro enough. If you are planning to visit the Longji Rice Terraces, this is the place to stay. Beautiful hotel, spectacular scenery, fantastic food and, above all, an exceptional team of people who make the whole experience truly memorable. We would come back without hesitation. Don’t miss this place!

One of the my best stays in all around China. Hotel is in very nice location close to parking lot and owner come to pick up from station and also drop off for free. Hotel also have breakfest in the morning and you can oreder they have good menu. I oreder to local dishis both was perfect also i pay a little bit for the portion bit in location like this i was expected to pay anyway it was worth because protions of food was big and also i got for free tea and rice wine as a gift. Room are very big and soeaceaships i have few different views from my Bathoroom was small window and view close to rice fields from balcony is nice panoramic view to the all village and rice fields

Had an incredible stay at this guesthouse! Nice, clean, and very spacious guesthouse run by a very sweet local family. I would highly recommend paying the upgrade to the terrace room, as the view from the terrace (and swinging chair) were so worth it! The room and bathroom were large, and contained full amenities (water bottles, disposable slippers, toothbrushes, and soap and shampoo.) The food at the guesthouse was delicious, with large portion sizes. I appreciated that the prices were normal and on par with the rest of China, and not extortionate like some other guesthouses. The family was also extremely helpful, and helped book my bus ticket, and get in contact with my next hotel when I couldn’t figure out how to reach them. Overall, I highly, highly recommend and would’ve stayed longer if I could!

What truly stood out was the balcony and the breathtaking views from it; you can see vast rice terraces right from your room. The guesthouse is tucked away deep inside the village, making it a wonderfully peaceful and quiet spot. The owner is very accommodating; if they're available, they'll drive down to pick you up from the foot of the mountain, and for the return journey, an uncle will give you a ride back down on his motorbike. Do be prepared for mosquitoes and insects, as they are common in the mountains and might even get into your room. The guesthouse is conveniently located between two main viewpoints: it's a 15-minute walk to 'Thousand-Layer Terraces' and 20 minutes to 'Xishan Shaole'. I went to 'Thousand-Layer Terraces' every day to enjoy the scenery. Getting to 'Jinfoding Peak', however, requires careful navigation. I believe I missed an unmarked shortcut, which resulted in a much longer trek. It took me about an hour and a half of combined uphill and downhill hiking to reach 'Jinfoding Peak'. Even if I had found the shortcut, I estimate it would still take over an hour. The locals at the guesthouse claimed it only takes 40 minutes, but I suspect that's because they're familiar with the shortcuts and are in excellent physical condition. For anyone who isn't very fit, my strong advice is to take the cable car directly from the Dazhai car park to 'Jinfoding Peak' on your first day, explore it thoroughly, and then head down to the guesthouse.

The room is really nice, just like in the pictures. The boss is very nice to talk to, and the communication is pleasant. The scenic spot is very close, and it is a very satisfying experience!

This folk hotel is truly amazing! The scenery is pure countryside, and the food is all authentic farm fruits, vegetables, chicken, duck, beef, and mutton, all free-range and pollution-free, sourced from local farmers. The staff are friendly and attentive. The B&B is spacious and clean. It's probably the best B&B within a ten-mile radius. The rooms are even more comfortable than expected, with Haofa suites, family rooms, and standard rooms available to meet all needs.
