Guilin Diecai District 5-star Hotels

Our room had a magnificent view of the Li River. The sightseeing spots in Guilin City were all in walkable distance of the hotel. The breakfast had a good amount of variety and you can even get the typical Guilin Rice Noodles if you want. The service was over the top (everyone was super friendly and attentive). If you have any questions the staff replies to your messages within minutes. We were asked if the breakfast is alright or if they should prepare a more western one for us. They probably also saw our bin filled with empty water bottles and provided us 1.5L bottles for free 😂 Will most certainly recommend this hotel to my friends and family and would also come myself again!

Super reasonable 5star accommodation at the fraction of cost. If one is free to use didi(Chinese version of Uber), location isn’t such a big issue. However, if one expect not only comfy room but also requires 5star service, I recommend pay more for global brand hotel. Breakfast was good enough for those who are already accustomed to Chinese style. All staffs were very kind, helpful, and enough for Chinese local hotel. Stayed for 2days and fairly satisfied especially room conditions and cleanness. The only issue that I wasn’t comfortable was the lousy atmosphere at the lobby and breakfast. However, I am well satisfied with the super reasonable value. I will definitely consider back on my next visit to Guilin for sure.

I want to blow this hotel up! Jimeis, go! This hotel is the most satisfying for family travel in Guilin! The hotel is located in the flower base and is a tribal concept resort hotel. The park is very large, the greening and design are particularly beautiful, and it is very quiet. There are complete recreational facilities, including a private cinema, a small zoo, a basketball court, etc. You can also ride in the park. It was so cool to drink tea and relax on the porch in the waterfront room. The hotel service was also very good. From the front desk receptionist to the cleaning aunt, from the restaurant service staff to the little brother who drove us around the park by electric car, they were all very enthusiastic. I want to give it ten stars! The hotel is also very good in terms of details, such as disposable bath bags, bath balls, loofah irons, and massage oil. See the pictures for details. There are views everywhere in the hotel, and the photos are very impressive. The natural landscape and design are very good. By the way, breakfast is divided into Chinese and Western set meals, which are very rich, and the mixed rice noodles are especially delicious. You can also order lunch and dinner at reasonable prices. There are also some farmhouses in the flower base outside the hotel, which are quite unique. If you take a taxi to the city, it takes about ten minutes and the fare is only about ten yuan. In short, I didn’t live enough. I will stay in this hotel next time!

I would like to extend a special thank you to staff members at the front desk, Mia and Dong Dong, during my recent stay. Their dedication to ensuring my comfort and satisfaction was truly exceptional. Their attentiveness, professionalism, and friendly demeanor made my experience at the hotel even more memorable. I am grateful for their outstanding service and look forward to returing to the Guilin Holiday Inn Express in the future, knowing that I will be in good hands.

Unfortunately we were still one of those old style backpacker travelers with families that doesn't have the online payment including the online app taxi service. Made it quite an inconvenience for us to look around the old ancient town. There are no taxis anywhere, we walked for several miles to get to the ancient town which was 80% ghost town. Had to catch the bus on the way back. There isn't just enough to see around except being a bit closer to the pier for the ferry the next day. The hotel in general is very elegant and pretty with a great view of the river. We had booked a discounted room thinking we wouldn't be in the room that much. But now definitely would pay extra to stay in the hotel more and enjoy the views of the river and mountain. They have beautiful beautiful spacious rooms with balconies that are facing the river and mountains. Super gorgeous. Thankfully the hotel's restaurant serves great delicious food!! There isn't any restaurant around really, quite hard to hunt for food as a foreigner. Lovely place to chill and walk along the Lijiang River. And lets not leave out the customer service of the hotel are absolutely brilliant and excellent.

Check in was easy and location was extremely close to the main shopping district. We had a very friendly guy by the name of xiao shou help us and provide us great recommendations.

Loved this hotel. It looked newly renovated so everything in the room was in great condition! Very worth the price we paid :) Location is great too, it's on the pedestrian street itself with plenty of food options nearby, and within walking distance to the twin pagodas and Elephant Trunk Mountain park. My family was very happy staying here. Service was quick and efficient too. Our first time at an Atour hotel and we will definitely consider staying at other Atour hotels in future.

The hotel rooms are very large and the details are well done. Free parking is available in the underground parking lot. We booked two rooms. The double bed rooms have very big beds. There is no problem for a family of four! The breakfast is average, which is not worth it compared to this price! The swimming pool will not be open until May. If you are taking pictures of the swimming pool, it is best to consult the front desk in advance to see if it is open! Two coffee vouchers for each room, you can make American coffee and Italian coffee, you can take it away!

Room: 1017 (king bed & bunk bed); duration of stay: 4 nights. Family of 4 (including 6 & 11y.o. boys) Absolutely wonderful surprise to walk into this room and see how spacious it was along with many fun features which included kids’ bunk bed and slide down one side, playhouse tent, play area with small kids table and chairs and small rocking horse. A large kids play area (open 10am – 10pm) on the same floor (level 10) along with a very basic gym i.e. 1 treadmill, a couple of indoor bikes. Most guests on level 10 kept our doors open and kids could freely roam between their hotel room and play area. There is no safe in the room although the hotel was safe and secure (cameras on each floor). Our valuables were locked in our suitcase when not in the room. A nice touch of earplugs by our bedside (although we didn’t need them) and heated/electric toilet. Both kids and adults enjoyed the room and hotel. The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful. Limited English and we communicated via translate app and my 11y.o. son who speaks intermediate Chinese. Use of sunscreen and other items available for free from reception counter. The hotel is very clean. Free laundry (front loading machines and a hanging rack heated dryer) including laundry powder (located on level 8). The pool was nice however given we visited late October, a bit on the cool side with the changing season. The breakfast spread was very good with a mixture of fruit, bread, dim sum, eggs (boiled, fried, scrambled), bacon, Chinese breakfast, tea, coffee, etc. 3 items, including noodles, on the breakfast menu to obtain freshly cooked. We also ate at the restaurant for dinner twice and both meals were fantastic (we recommend the T-bone steak!). Ordering is via scanning a QR code. Limited alcoholic spirits on the dinner menu. We booked a boat tour via the hotel tour desk using the translator app. The service was good and easy. We opted to get a taxi to the boat (rather than the group van which left an hour earlier and cost RMB10pp) however upon arriving to the boat ticket office outside the boats they tried to redirect us to a different location. We communicated with the hotel tour desk via WeChat which was quick and very helpful as they sent photos of the desk we needed to be at (which was a table next door to the ticket office). The process was smooth and easy. The use of the spa is 50% off for hotel guests and from memory it opens at 3pm. Suggest to book ahead as the spa does book out quickly. The location is good; a walk away from Guilin Pagoda Hill, Elephant hill (10 min walk), Starbucks on the opposite side of the road less than 10 minute walk away, 2 KFC’s, food, taxi stand to the left of the hotel, night market, shopping, etc. Great features of this hotel: • Fun hotel and fantastic for kids • Very clean and safe • Good location • Good breakfast spread, lunch/dinner options • Taxi stand less than 1 minute walk For awareness: • SYYF has 2 locations. Taxi’s kept dropping us back at the other location. Therefore take the address in Chinese and make sure the taxi drivers read the address (not just look at the logo)

This Lavande next to Guilin Zhengyang Pedestrian Street has a good location, but it just happens that the pavement is being repaired, and the installation of a lot of panels is a bit of an impact! Not far from the pedestrian street, walking along Binjiang Road, very comfortable! There are a lot of snacks in the pedestrian street, and there are many small commodities. They are similar. There are not too many surprises. The hotel rooms are not very big, the beds are relatively large, the facilities are a bit old, the waiters are more enthusiastic, and the breakfast is rich. There are Guilin rice noodles, although they are not authentic, they are freshly made , Still delicious 😋 There are many other choices too!
