Longsheng Hotels with Kitchens

"Excellent location , in the Dazhai village center, easy 7 minute walk to the Dazhai parking lot for the cable car and the local buses to Ping'an and long hair show village (forgot the name). You can also walk to three observation platforms from the foothill to hilltop. Room: spacious, clean, with all the amenities as described. Hosts: a young couple with kids and mother, nice, welcoming people. Although they do not speak English, you can easily communicate via WeChat. They helped me with booking a bus to Guilin. The hotel is recommended for nice views and local village experience. I would like to have a menu, as well as a sketch map of the area with observation platforms, villages, hiking routes in English. Information on local events and local but routes/ schedules would also be helpful for non-Chinese tourists."

"The room was spacious, bright, clean, and comfortable. The balcony offered a beautiful, expansive view of the terraced fields. Breakfast was included, and we just needed to arrange lunch and dinner with the owner. They also provided shuttle service up and down the mountain, which was incredibly convenient. The service was warm and attentive. I had to go up and down the mountain several times for personal matters, and the owner was always very enthusiastic about driving me and offering assistance. Truly commendable!"

"This guesthouse at Jinkeng Dazhai, Longji Rice Terraces, was absolutely fantastic – a truly exceptional experience from start to finish. The room was spotless, with great natural light and ventilation, making for a very comfortable stay. What truly blew me away was the 270-degree panoramic view; the terraced fields stretched out as far as the eye could see. Every photo I took looked like it belonged in a magazine. The scenery, whether by day or at dusk, was so beautiful I didn't want to leave. The owners were incredibly warm and genuine. Not only did they provide transfers to and from the parking lot, but they thoughtfully drove us to a scenic viewpoint on the opposite mountain, saving us a tough climb. The food at the guesthouse was authentically delicious, with fresh ingredients and generous portions. The accompanying black tea was fragrant and had a pleasant aftertaste, and their homemade rice wine was excellent – potent but not headache-inducing. Breakfast was also thoughtfully prepared, exquisite and plentiful, offering a balanced and nutritious start to the day. Eating a hearty meal before exploring the terraces just elevated the whole experience. Before we left, I casually complimented their rice wine, and the owner surprisingly gave us an extra portion as a gift. This small, unexpected gesture really warmed my heart. If you're looking for a comfortable stay, breathtaking views, and delicious, worry-free food in Longji, this place is definitely the one to choose."

"This place is probably as deep into Longji as you can get. We arrived on a rainy day, and the mountain paths were muddy and difficult to navigate. Luckily, the owner was incredibly helpful and even drove us up and down the steepest, most challenging part of the trail – really appreciate that! Our room had a tatami mat and floor-to-ceiling windows that looked directly onto the terraced fields. It was a shame it was so foggy and cloudy, I could only imagine the view."

"The owner is very nice and helpful. He responds to messages immediately and is always responsive. He also provides pick-up and drop-off. The room is very clean and the environment is beautiful. I slowed down and enjoyed the scenery. The style is very fitting for the name of the hotel. It is an elegant and carefree place. There are tatami mats that the children love, fishing in the rice fields, ethnic costumes, delicious young chicken, and rice wine that they can't drink enough. The owner even picked wild cabbage for the children. Overall, it was a wonderful experience here."

"The house is self-built and relatively new. Located halfway up a mountain, it's easily accessible by car and close to the Thousand-Layer Scenic Area, just a few minutes' drive away. The owner's wife and mother-in-law were the most attentive, while the men in the family seemed rather lazy and didn't seem to do much. The complimentary breakfast was decent, and the owner's rice wine was also quite good; I'd recommend it!"

"The room was spotless, and the balcony glass was sparkling clean. I especially appreciated the two-layer balcony door, which included a screen door. Even the disposable shower cap had a hair tie inside – such thoughtful details that made me feel so comfortable and pleasantly surprised. My long-awaited 'true-to-life' fishing experience didn't happen because I got my period on the morning we arrived at Longji. The owner said I'd need to go barefoot for fishing, and since it wasn't a warm day at all, I just didn't have the courage to get into the water barefoot. I almost cried! We had dinner, and the next day's breakfast and lunch at the guesthouse. I strongly recommend that anyone staying here avoids eating at the Jinkeng Dazhai car park – the food here at the guesthouse is absolutely delicious!!! We also had an extra person join us unexpectedly, and the owner didn't charge extra for their breakfast. The owners (I assume it's a couple) and the staff were all incredibly kind and helpful, even offering directions proactively. All in all, it was absolutely wonderful!"

"The B&B is located in Tiantou Village in the middle of the mountain, between the No. 2 Observation Deck (thousand-story ladder) and the highest No. 1 Observation Deck (Xishan Yule), while the No. 3 Observation Deck (Golden Buddha Summit) is on the opposite mountain. Walk to the No. 2 Observation Deck for about 15 minutes and go to the No. 1 Observation Deck for about 20 minutes. It is far away to go to the No. 3 observation deck, and you can also go down to Dazhai and then take the cable car. There is no obstruction in front of the homestay. You can see the scenery on the big platform in front of the house or in front of the window of the room (Figure 2-Figure 5). If you want to see the large landscape terraces, you should go to the observation deck. This time the basic rainy season, sunrise and sunset, sunrise and sunset, the starry sky is soaked, but the smog is also a beautiful scenery."

"A bit hard to find for the first time,except that everything was perfect ,size of room,helpful and polite staff ,and view from the terrace"

"absolutely lovely place to stay! the owners were extremely accommodating, friendly, and good cooks to boot. the stay overlooks the ping'an terraces and is close to two observation decks. the room was spacious and very clean and comfortable (although the mattress on the bunk beds were too hard) its quite high up and there's a lot of steps to climb. pro tip: bring duffel bags or anything else that isn't a heavy luggage bag, as the climb up/down with those is a tough one"
