Romantic Hotels in Guangxi, China

Seriously, who gets it? My stay at the Wyndham Garden Liuzhou absolutely maximized my travel happiness!🍜 The authentic Liuzhou river snail noodles on the 13th floor were amazing!The sour bamboo shoots were flavorful, and you could add beef and duck feet. No need to queue outside; I savored the authentic Liuzhou flavor right in my room.🌃 The river view + musical fountain view was incredible!The coffee buffet and scenic afternoon tea on the 13th floor allowed me to enjoy the Liujiang River while I ate. In the evening, the 12th-floor bar's special cocktails faced the musical fountain directly, creating the perfect tipsy atmosphere!📸 The travel photography offered by the hotel was fantastic!I chose a Miao ethnic costume, and the makeup and styling were incredibly detailed. The photos turned out perfectly (100% success rate!), and they even included two retouched photos, saving me a significant amount on a photoshoot!📍 The location is super convenient too!It's very close to popular attractions like Ma'anshan Park and Wuxing Pedestrian Street. When I was tired from exploring, I returned to the hotel for a free tea-seed hair treatment provided by the hotel—so relaxing and comfortable!No need for a detailed itinerary; just book this hotel directly!

We’ve travelled all over the world and stayed in everything from budget hotels to some of the most well-known luxury brands, and we can honestly say this was the best hotel we’ve ever experienced. Everything about Liangsu Hotel in Yangshuo exceeded our expectations. The service from the staff was absolutely impeccable—everyone was so warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. It didn’t feel forced or “hotel-like” at all, just very natural and thoughtful. They really go above and beyond to make your stay special. The room was something else. Waking up to that view every morning honestly felt unreal—it’s like living inside a painting. The design is beautiful and calming, and every detail in the room felt carefully thought out. It’s one of those places where you actually look forward to spending time in the room. One really unique touch we loved was the complimentary 30-minute travel photography session. It’s such a thoughtful experience, and the setting makes for incredible photos—you’re basically surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery imaginable. It’s a small detail, but it made the stay even more memorable. The whole hotel has such a peaceful, dreamy atmosphere that makes it really hard to leave. It’s quiet, scenic, and just feels very special compared to a lot of other places we’ve stayed. We’ve stayed in many “luxury” hotels before, but this one stands out because it combines stunning design, nature, and truly genuine service. Highly, highly recommend—this place is something special. For us it's more than 5 stars!

I was very satisfied with the hotel I chose this time. Before I arrived, they proactively called to ask if I'd mind the noise from renovations in the adjacent building during the day. Since I was out all day, it wasn't an issue. The breakfast was exactly as shown in the promotional pictures – excellent ambiance and a wide variety of options. You could directly see Fubo Hill and East & West Alleys from there. The hotel is located right next to a pedestrian street, so there are plenty of food options downstairs. It's only a five-minute walk to the Li River, and if you stroll along the banks, you can see Elephant Trunk Hill. Elephant Trunk Park is just a few minutes' walk away, and entry is free with a QR code reservation. We took a boat tour for 90 RMB per person, enjoying an hour-long scenic cruise. The disembarkation point was also just a few minutes' walk back to the hotel. Since my high-speed train was at 3 PM and it wasn't too busy today, I was granted a late check-out until 2 PM. Overall, I was very happy with the service. Minor drawbacks: The toilet and shower are separate, which is great, but they share one door. This means two people can't use them simultaneously. Also, it would be perfect if the shower had a couple more hooks for clothes. Oh, and the noodle shop diagonally opposite the hotel downstairs is delicious! The owner said it's been open since the 90s, but they'll be closing in July when their lease expires. Definitely worth trying!

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.

This hotel in Guilin was the last stop on our Guangxi road trip, and it was by far the most thoughtful in terms of service and amenities throughout our entire journey. **Facilities:** The hotel isn't huge, but each floor has a washing machine and dryer, and the 5th floor boasts a terrace and an outdoor pool. The rooms are fully equipped with a mini-fridge and an automatic hot water dispenser. The TV even comes with a Tencent Video subscription. The front desk also provides a variety of travel essentials. **Environment:** The hotel is located within the Two Rivers and Four Lakes scenic area. Just 100 meters south, you'll find a lakeside promenade with beautiful night views. It's also a short 10-20 minute walk to popular attractions like Elephant Trunk Hill and the Sun and Moon Pagodas. Shared e-bikes are also available right outside. **Hygiene:** The room was clean and tidy, with no signs of mosquitoes or other insects. We had a very comfortable stay. **Service:** All the hotel staff were incredibly friendly, and their service was attentive without being intrusive. The hotel even offers a laundry and drying service, delivering clean clothes back to your room. Any requests made to the front desk were promptly addressed and fulfilled. Overall, it was a highly satisfying stay.

We stayed in a 180-degree river view room, and the Li River was right outside our window. Sitting in the tatami area, sipping tea and enjoying the view was truly delightful. I also loved the coffee shop downstairs; it felt like we were right on the riverbank, with an even more unobstructed view. The hotel staff were all incredibly friendly and patient with both children and seniors. They were quick to respond and efficient in their service. The cormorant fisherman was also super nice and amiable, and the cormorants were so cleverly trained! Breakfast offered a good variety of items, including many local specialties. It would be even better if the taste could be improved a bit. As for the location, Fubo Hill is right outside the hotel. Diecai Hill is just a 10-minute walk away. We went to Diecai Hill after breakfast, took our time hiking up, and enjoyed a panoramic view of Guilin. We were back at the hotel by 10:30 AM, had a refreshing shower after the workout – so convenient and effortless! In the evening, we strolled to East-West Alley/Jingjiang Princes' City, which was a comfortable 15-20 minute walk with the kids.

Absolutely loved our family stay! The room was spacious, giving my little one plenty of space to run around without feeling cramped. The bathroom had ample hot water, and all the toiletries were provided. It's super convenient with lots of dining and shopping options nearby. The staff were incredibly friendly towards children, and the place was spotless, making our stay very reassuring. Definitely our top choice for family trips! They even upgraded our room for free, the service was truly exceptional. My child loved it so much we're coming back in a few days!

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.

Facilities: The facilities are very new and comprehensive, and they even have robots delivering meals, which is incredibly thoughtful. Cleanliness: It's very clean, which gives you peace of mind. Environment: It's located right above MixC, making it convenient to go anywhere. Service: Ms. Elva was patient and meticulous throughout, explaining everything wonderfully. Guangxi Specialty ”Gongwenbao” Welcome Drink: So delicious! A must-try when in Nanning! This trip was for a business trip. I stayed at the same place for the working days, but I decided to extend my stay by one more day before heading back, wanting to experience Nanning's tallest hotel. Shangri-La is a well-established brand; the first 5-star hotel I ever stayed in was a Shangri-La. I was pleasantly surprised this time after booking when a staff member, Ms. Elva, directly escorted me from the front desk to the Horizon Club lounge for VIP reception. She also upgraded my room type, giving me a more expansive view and greater comfort. During the reception, she gave me a Guangxi ”Gongwenbao” fruit tea and a bag of Luosifen! After entering the room, she meticulously explained how to use everything, which was very thoughtful and responsible! It's a pity that I caught a cold and had a fever the day before checking in this time. Besides ordering takeout once and having breakfast the next morning, I didn't get to properly enjoy the other facilities, which is a bit of a regret. However, having regrets means there's a next time to make it perfect. I hope to have the opportunity to stay here again in the near future! 😊
