3-Star Hotels in Yangshuo

The location is excellent, very close to the 20-yuan Lijiang River scenic pier. The environment is clean and tidy, and the room is very spacious. The service attitude is superb. I booked for two nights and was supposed to check out by 12 PM on the third day. However, on the second night, my child was hit by a car and transferred to Guilin Hospital. It wasn't until the evening of the third day that my husband had time to go check out and pack our luggage. The owner kept the room for us and didn't rush us to check out at all. The owner is a truly compassionate person; they repeatedly inquired about my child's condition, didn't charge us for the late checkout, and even gave my child a red envelope. For this booking, the owner truly went above and beyond, practically losing money. Such big-hearted owners are truly rare. I wish the owner a prosperous business and abundant wealth. Thank you for your immense kindness.

First things first, the service at this hotel was really good. They helped us to plan our routes and rent some scooters. The food was also very good. They offer Chinese and western dishes at their own restaurant (luna) and as a European I have to admit that the quality of the western cuisine surprised me. The decor of the whole place feels warm and welcoming. Sadly, the moon hill park is closed right now. The other attractions are a bit further away but easily reachable by scooter.

The environment is pretty good, clean, tidy, and odor-free. You can see beautiful distant scenery from the window, even though it overlooks a rather murky pond. The room's floor is warped, making the door quite difficult to open and close; it takes some effort each time. When it rains, you have to walk up a narrow, uncovered staircase to get to the room, so you're likely to get wet. It's not far from West Street, and finding places to eat is easy.

We stayed for two nights. The first night, we booked two single rooms. Upon check-in, we found out that there's only one room of that specific type per floor. After explaining that it would be inconvenient for our two children to be on different floors, the front desk kindly upgraded us to a single room on the same floor, which was great. For the second night, we specifically booked the hotel's two-bedroom, one-living-room courtyard suite, thinking it would be perfect for the kids to play. But when we entered, we were shocked – this was clearly a one-bedroom, one-living-room, with one bed placed right in the living room! I've seen open-plan kitchens, but never an open-plan bedroom. Since we had plans and were rushing out, I forgot to take photos and didn't have time to speak to the front desk. It was quite disappointing; it would have been more comfortable to stay in two separate rooms. The balcony courtyard also didn't have the table and chairs shown in the promotional pictures, just a bare tree. It really didn't match the description. The room size was far from the advertised 108 square meters. What's truly infuriating is calling a one-bedroom, one-living-room with an open-plan bedroom a two-bedroom, one-living-room. Having to walk through that open bedroom to use the restroom at night was incredibly inconvenient, especially with elderly people and children.

We were seeking a peaceful getaway from the city for a few days in the mountains of Yangshuo, and this place really lived up to its name! The view from our balcony was spectacular, no photo can really capture how the lush green mountains rise up all around you! Our room was so clean and open and spacious, with lots of drawers and cabinets and places to hang your things. The bed linens were silky soft and comfortable, and the towels are nice, too. Our room was really so comfortable, that when it was raining we just lazed about in our room, napping on the daybed, watching movies on the big TV, or reading in the bath. Speaking of the bath, honestly the most epic view from a tub that I have ever experienced! When it was too hot and humid in the day, we lounged in the crystal blue pool- what a treat to swim in the cool water with the mountains all around you! When we felt like exploring beyond the village, we were able to rent e-bikes right there for a great price, it was so convenient. They have a buffet Chinese breakfast in the morning, and the Guilin rice noodle was delish and so authentic. We also loved the homemade soymilk, it was so good, even my husband who doesn't really like soymilk kept drinking it! We enjoyed the modern zen feel of the hotel, its very calming with water features, and little garden features everywhere. Most of all, the location of the hotel is really special, you are in the back of an old traditional village, making it sooooo quiet, so peaceful. No noisy tourists to be seen anywhere!!! The staff was friendly and chill and helpful. But, when we wanted to go out for a treat, we would just walk a few steps into the center of the village where there are some really lovely coffee shops in ancient garden courtyards, and we would eat at one of our favorite restaurants, the Secret Garden Cafe, which has yummy Chinese and Western food. We can't wait to come back and recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a restful escape from the hustle and bustle.

Traveling with my little one, we were so lucky to stay at this B&B—I absolutely have to give it a huge thumbs-up! First off, the environment is absolutely stunning. As soon as we walked in, we were captivated by the courtyard. The flowers and plants are meticulously trimmed yet maintain a natural, wild charm. After the rain, the air was incredibly fresh, like it had been washed clean. Sitting in the yard with a cup of tea, time just seemed to slow down. The rooms also have a lovely natural wood style, cozy yet sophisticated, exactly like the pictures. Then there's the cleanliness – as a germaphobe, I was thoroughly impressed. The room was spotless, the floors were so clean you could walk barefoot, the bedding smelled of sunshine, and the bathroom was free of any water stains or odors. Traveling with a baby, I'm extra sensitive to cleanliness, and this place put my mind completely at ease. Most importantly, the family-friendly service is incredibly thoughtful! The owner clearly understands what kids need. They had already prepared children's toothbrushes and slippers for us in advance, and even thoughtfully provided a bed rail, which made us feel much more secure at night. The common area had picture books and building blocks, and my baby had a blast, too busy playing to fuss. They even prepared soft, sticky porridge and small steamed buns specifically for my child's breakfast.

The hotel boasts stylish decor and spotlessly clean rooms. The staff were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to make our trip comfortable and convenient. A special highlight was the rooftop terrace, offering breathtaking panoramic views of West Street. We were also pleasantly surprised when the bar staff offered us complimentary drinks. Highly recommended!

I chose to stay at Yangshuo Mountain Retreat largely because of the owner, Little Fish. What stood out to me before booking was how she takes the time to personally respond to every single review. That level of care and pride in the property really came through—and it is fully reflected in the guest experience. I stayed in Room 207, which offered a perfect vantage point of the Yulong River. I spent hours on the balcony simply watching bamboo rafts drift past against the dramatic karst mountains—it was incredibly peaceful and almost meditative. The retreat itself feels authentic and deeply rooted in the local community. It is entirely run by people from nearby villages, with over 90% of the team being women. Much of the food is sourced directly from the families of the staff who have farms, which makes the entire experience feel personal and sustainable. What impressed me further was hearing from local Didi drivers, who also spoke very highly of the resort. They shared that many of the staff have been there for years, a testament to how well the owner treats her team. It’s clear that Little Fish sees them as family—taking them on holidays and ensuring they are well looked after. That kind of culture is rare and truly shows in the warmth of the service. With only 34 rooms, the property feels wonderfully intimate and quiet—ideal if you’re looking to disconnect. The setting is nothing short of spectacular, with uninterrupted views of one of the most beautiful stretches of the Yulong River. The food also deserves special mention. Both the Chinese and Western options were excellent, and we ended up having all our meals at the hotel. Portions were generous, and when we couldn’t finish the famous Bamboo Chicken, the staff kindly offered to keep it for our next meal—a thoughtful gesture that perfectly reflects their hospitality. Overall, this is far more than just a place to stay. It’s an experience built on genuine care, community, and natural beauty. I would return without hesitation

We had a wonderful stay at Yangshuo Moye Sanqiu Homestay. The hotel offers breathtaking views of the river and the surrounding karst mountains, making it a great place to relax and enjoy the scenery. The rooms are beautifully designed and have a unique character. However, some facilities in the room were not functioning perfectly and could use a bit more attention to maintenance. One thing to keep in mind is the location. Although the setting is peaceful and scenic, the hotel is situated on the opposite side of the river from the town center. This means that you will usually need to take a taxi to reach the downtown area, shopping streets, and most restaurants. Overall, the stunning views, tranquil atmosphere, and stylish rooms make this a memorable place to stay in Yangshuo.

I had a truly satisfying stay! The location of Wangjianglou is unbeatable, very close to West Street and the Li River, making getting around super convenient. I specifically booked the 'Leisure Courtyard View Twin Room,' and it was clean, tidy, well-equipped, and completely odor-free. The courtyard environment is incredibly tranquil and peaceful, a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle. The twin room was spacious enough; my family and I didn't feel cramped at all. The staff were friendly and responsive. Overall, the value for money is exceptional. It was an impeccable accommodation experience, deserving of a five-star rating!
