SYYF · Shiyuyuanfang Li River Hotel (Guilin Elephant Hill Scenic Spot) ★★★★★

📍 No. 7 Longzhu Road, Diecai District, Guilin

"The hotel is quite nice, and the service was great. The bed was a bit hard. It's right next to Elephant Trunk Hill. The only drawback is the outdoor restaurant area, which has no shade whatsoever. It gets incredibly sunny there, and it would be much better with some awnings in the summer. Since it's a great spot for photos along the Li River, the lack of shade really detracts from the experience."

"Overall, the stay was awful, I absolutely do not recommend it! The room's cleanliness was appalling; there were long and short hairs everywhere on the bed and bathroom floor, and dust accumulated noticeably in the corners, showing that the cleaning was done without any care. The soundproofing was non-existent; you could clearly hear conversations in the hallway and noises from next door. It was especially noisy late at night, making it impossible to get any rest. The staff's service attitude was mediocre, completely lacking any sense of attentiveness. I advise everyone against choosing this place."

Lijiang Moon View · Quiet Holiday Lakeside Hotel (Guilin Two Rivers & Four Lakes Area) ★★★★
"The hotel's smart devices are incredibly thoughtful. They provide air purifiers and garment steamers. The nightstands have wireless charging, and there's a music sleep aid device by the bed. For boiling water, they use a water dispenser, so you don't have to worry about dirty kettles. The hotel also offers free laundry and drying services, which is really convenient. The location is right next to Rong Lake, and you can walk to Elephant Trunk Hill, Sun and Moon Pagodas, Two Rivers and Four Lakes, and Zheng Yang Pedestrian Street. If you get tired, a taxi back will cost less than 10 RMB. It's a very convenient and quiet location."

Jinheng Yashe Smart Hotel (Guilin Two Rivers and Four Lakes Elephant Trunk Hill)
"Extremely satisfied! I spent an entire afternoon researching before choosing this hotel. The owner said it had only been open for about six months, so the facilities and environment were excellent, and the service was superb! Everyone at the front desk and the housekeeping staff was incredibly kind. We stayed at two hotels during our trip, and this one was truly fantastic! Plus, the price was cheap and reasonable. We encountered a small issue (not the hotel's fault), and they even compensated us with a gift box of snacks. This little incident was truly an undeserved mishap for the hotel; it would have been unfair to give them a bad review. Finally, I wish the hotel continued success!"

When I checked out, the guy at the front desk even came out to give me a fridge magnet and some dried monk fruit, which was a lovely touch. The room was super comfortable, breakfast was delicious, and the location is great too. Highly, highly recommend!"
