3-Star Hotels in Longsheng

This hotel is an absolute gem! I spent a lot of time choosing a hotel in Longji Terraces, debating whether to go to Pingan or Dazhai. We are so happy and grateful we ended up staying at Yanduoshansu Hotel. Everything about it was incredible. Gorgeous location at the highest point in Pingan Village, with a panoramic view of the rice terraces and village, without feeling crowded among other lodges. At night we slept with the windows open to the sound of a mountain stream and cool air. The room was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. But the highlight was the hosts who were so kind and friendly, despite language barriers. They helped us with luggage transfers, tips for hiking around the terraces and cooked the most wonderful, flavourful homemade dinner and breakfast - probably the best food we had on our trip to Guilin. Only wish we could have stayed longer.

I stayed at this guesthouse for two nights and the location was great. The golden rice fields visible through the large windows were truly breathtaking. There were three observation decks nearby, and we walked to all of them. It was nice to spend a leisurely day trekking. The room and bed were spacious, and the bathtub was great for relaxing. The breakfast was very basic, so don't expect much. The owner doesn't speak English, so you'll need to use Papago to translate it into Chinese and then WeChat. If you ask, they'll book a bus to Guilin and pick you up. I WeChatted in English on the way there, but I didn't get a reply. I ate at a restaurant near the bus stop and called, and they picked me up.

This was the best experience I've ever had with an hotel. First of all the place is very new, and you can tell. It is extremely clean and technologic (the toilet had a worming seat option) and the bathtub, the sofa and the bed were all super comfortable. The location is the best in the Longji park, close to view points 1 and 2. And from our room we could see the rice terraces. But the best thing were the owners. They got in contact with us before we arrived to make sure we knew the way. They welcomed us with hot tea, and explained to us where all the sightseeing points were. We had many questions and they patiently answered all of them. The service was amazing! Last thing: eat in the hotel! We ordered everything in the morning and in the evening we had the best dinner we had in China so far. The breakfast is also very good. This is really a gem, and we liked our stay very much. Thank you again for the hospitality!

We were so lucky that we've got upgraded to a family suite with amazing view over the mountain and it's surrounding. Our room are very clean and beautifully decorated. The location of the guest house to see the rice terrace is so amazing despite having walked up the hill for 10 minutes. The host also helped us with our luggages with a roped trolley. Our luggages got there before us! The host couple are so friendly and helpful, they went over and above to try to accommodate my fussy eater teenage boy! They showed great hospitality and make our stay felt so relaxed and pleasant. If we come back to Guilin, we will definitely return to this guest house and will stay a few more nights.

The location is great, just a seven or eight-minute walk from the Ping'anzhai observation deck. The scenery is absolutely stunning, surrounded by mountains. Opening the balcony door from your room feels like you're living in the clouds. We went during the off-season, so there weren't many people. The guesthouse has a traditional Chinese architectural style, all solid wood, and the materials used are very substantial. The only downside is that you have to park in a designated parking lot quite far from the hotel, pay a high parking fee, and then buy an electric cart ticket to get up there. You can clearly drive up yourself, which I found very confusing and inconvenient.

From check-in to check-out, you can feel the warmth and friendliness of the owners. The guesthouse's location is excellent, with beautiful rice terraces visible right from the balcony. We were also lucky enough to witness a perfect sunrise. Plus, it's right next door to Observation Deck No. 2 – the 'Thousand-Layer Terraces'. Although it's a bit of a distance from the town, it shouldn't be an issue if you're driving, as cars can pull right up to the entrance. For us international visitors without our own transport, it was still very convenient as we had breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the guesthouse restaurant. The owner's cooking was delicious and perfectly suited our Cantonese palate. The landlady even treated us to homemade rice wine, black tea, and a fruit platter! Moreover, the restaurant boasts stunning views, making the dining experience truly delightful. The guesthouse rooms are simply furnished but clean, and all essential toiletries are provided. This place is perfect for a relaxing break and a vacation; it's very comfortable and highly recommended!

Everything was amazing. We opted to upgrade our room when we got there for a higher floor. The view was really nice (when there was no fog). The man who ran the hotel also spoke good English meaning he could explain routes to us. Hotel was also located close to the gate meant convenient access to the transportation in and out of the park. Rooms were also very spacious and the hotel provided for everything that was needed. Only drawback I would say is the lack of an elevator. Meaning if you’re on the fourth floor like we were, it was a hike up and down everyday.

The views from both the restaurant and the rooms are absolutely breathtaking. We could see the stunning 'Seven Stars with Moon' landscape, and in the morning, we were even treated to a beautiful sea of clouds. The hostess is an incredible cook; all the dishes we ordered, like the bamboo tube rice, bamboo tube chicken, and green pepper beef, were delicious. Breakfast was excellent too! The owners and their family were so warm and welcoming. This is hands down the best homestay I've ever stayed at. I definitely plan to return if I get the chance!

We originally booked a hotel in Dazhai, but changed to Yunman in Ping'an Village at the last minute to see the night view. The decor was simple, and it seemed to be run by a family with great care. The location was excellent, with a wide view; I recommend booking a room with a full view – a 180-degree panorama! At night, with the room lights off, the twinkling lights on the terraced fields were very romantic. It's very close to the Jiulong Wuhu scenic area, and we climbed up there once during the day and once at night. We had dinner at the guesthouse; they had a freshly killed chicken, and the owner even removed the bones for us – very thoughtful. When we were leaving, our car battery died, and the owner kindly borrowed some jumper cables to power it for us.

The Longsheng Hot Springs Resort was a well-spent time of refreshing and relaxing. Surrounded by mountains, crisp air and the sounds of flowing creeks below was an absolutely soothing experience. The “mountain view” room was clean and spacious and the bed was quite comfortable. I really liked the rocking chair as it added a warm aesthetic to the overall decor. The breakfast buffet was good and provided a variety of options.  The all-day access allowed me ample time to immerse myself into the different climatized pools which was great and I instantly felt regenerated. The natural environment was scenic and inspiring as I took in the warmth and heat of the springs. Though it was quite overcast and a drizzly few days, being outdoors didn’t feel cold.  The staff were quite friendly and helpful and provided adequate responses to various inquiries despite the language barrier. I was glad to make this trip and have this experience.  My only recommendation would be to provide larger sized robes upon request. I found those in my room a bit small and I would’ve preferred a larger one but when I asked at the front desk, none were available. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and I’d highly recommend it!
