The staff were incredibly friendly and polite, and the room was spacious and clean. They offered afternoon tea and had an outdoor garden. Plus, there's a private entrance from the hotel directly into Elephant Trunk Hill scenic area, so you can get there and snap a picture in just three minutes! Five stars, absolutely!

A hotel full of surprises, with an excellent location. There's a small gate that leads directly to Elephant Trunk Hill. We visited during the off-season, so it was very comfortable with fewer crowds. The hotel staff were incredibly friendly, and the afternoon tea was also great. The room was spacious, and the kids absolutely loved it. Breakfast was very rich and delicious. My favorite part was the small courtyard – it was perfect for taking photos!

Quiet room, well equipped with a mini fridge. We slept well. Nice free tea and cakes. No lift and 3 floors but a nice free carrier service.
Response from Property: 【Quiet room】Hey Guest, big thanks for the great review! So stoked the quiet room and mini fridge gave you a fantastic sleep, and the free tea & cakes hit the spot. We know 3 floors without a lift sounds tricky, but our free carrier service is here to help—no heavy lifting for you! Can’t wait to host you again for another lovely stay!

The hotel's location is excellent, right next to Elephant Trunk Hill Park. The hygiene was very good. We got to try on traditional ethnic clothing, and the bathroom was huge. The window overlooked the park. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Guilin.

The hotel's location right next to the #1 entrance of Elephant Trunk Hill was fantastic. Even better, there's a private hotel entrance directly to Elephant Hill, saving us the hassle of queuing and reservations – super convenient! They also offer afternoon tea and have a book bar and a vintage courtyard perfect for photos. Five stars, we'll definitely be back!

Right next to Elephant Trunk Hill, you can enter the park without a reservation, which is super convenient. The room was comfortable and clean, and the staff's service attitude was absolutely amazing; they answered every question and even helped carry our luggage to the room. We got 50% off breakfast vouchers and a free fridge magnet. It was an economical stay with five-star service. Excellent value for money!!!

The room was very clean and spacious, with no odd smells. The hotel decor had a strong cultural ambiance. They kindly provided complimentary amenities for children. The service was excellent; a security guard proactively helped us carry our luggage upstairs to the second floor. However, the room facing the street had noise from passing cars. I'm writing this review after checking out, I forgot to take photos at the time.

Shuiyue Yixiang Mountain is absolutely amazing! You can walk directly to Xiangbishan (Elephant Trunk Hill) and skip the lines. Opening the window to see the mountains and water is incredibly therapeutic. The Chinese-style courtyard is elegant and perfect for photos. The breakfast rice noodles are authentic, and the service is attentive. Staying here makes sightseeing super convenient. It's my top choice for a Guilin trip!

Seriously? You waited two hours in line for Elephant Trunk Hill? I just walked in through the hotel's side entrance without a reservation, it took one second, absolutely amazing! This hotel, Shuiyue Yixiangshan Courtyard Hotel, is right next to the Elephant Trunk Hill scenic area entrance. I arrived in Guilin late at night, tired from the flight, and a staff member immediately helped me with my luggage, which really made a great first impression of Guilin! The room was also very grand with a large bathtub, spacious and clean. Its proximity to the scenic area is so convenient!

The facilities are a bit dated, and the layout is a bit odd – the toilet and shower are by the window, while the bed doesn't get as much natural light. However, the service was excellent. They called in advance to confirm and reserved a parking space. This is also the closest hotel to the Xiangshan Scenic Area.

Response from Property: [This is also the closest hotel to Elephant Hill Scenic Area!] Thank you for your honest sharing! Our hotel has a retro and cozy feel, with some facilities carrying the texture of time. It may lack a bit of modern style, but everything undergoes regular inspection and maintenance to ensure safe and convenient use. Rather than pursuing a trendy appearance, we want to focus our energy on what you truly need: confirming your itinerary in advance, reserving parking spaces, and the convenient location right next to Elephant Hill Scenic Area, making your trip less troublesome and more comfortable. Thank you for your understanding and recognition. We will continue to maintain our facilities and make up for any minor shortcomings with more meticulous service. We look forward to hosting you again next time!

The biggest highlight is definitely the location, right next to Elephant Trunk Hill and with direct access to the scenic area. Booking a room also came with a complimentary travel photoshoot, and the photographer was excellent, almost like a mini tour guide! You can even change into ethnic costumes, though you can't wear them outside the hotel. The casual travel photoshoot: You can choose 5 photos for free, and additional ones are RMB 20 each – very good value! They also help with photo editing.

Stayed at a divine hotel at the foot of Guilin's Elephant Trunk Hill for just a hundred yuan per person! It felt like stepping into a Lijiang River painting, and I opened the window to find Elephant Trunk Hill right there ⛰️. If you come to Guilin and don't stay near Elephant Trunk Hill Park, you've missed out! This Water Moon Yixiang Mountain Courtyard, hidden near Elephant Trunk Hill Park, is simply a heaven-sent spot for lazy travelers, photography enthusiasts, and families with kids ✨. The hotel has a direct access to the scenic area, so you can walk to Elephant Trunk Hill Scenic Area in just 3 minutes. The hotel boasts a retro Shanghainese petite bourgeoisie style with an overall wooden design 🪟. The rooms are a blend of retro Chinese and modern light luxury. The bedding is so soft, it felt like sleeping on a cloud ☁️. The hotel is fully equipped, so no worries about entertaining the kids – they'll play until they don't want to leave! For breakfast, they have Guilin rice noodles! The crispy pork and pickled long beans are authentically delicious, certified by locals!

The hotel is right next to Entrance 1 of Elephant Hill, and it even has its own private entrance to the scenic area, which is incredibly convenient. The security guard was very friendly and helped us with our luggage up and down. The room was clean and comfortable, and the bed was just right – not too soft, not too firm – making for a very comfortable sleep.
