MeiyangyangdeyangOn my second day in Yangshuo, I switched to this hotel called 'Zai Shui Yi Fang' (Riverside Haven), and I knew I made the right choice as soon as I checked in.
It’s located right in the prime section of the Ten-Mile Gallery. Instead of the hustle and bustle of West Street, you get peace and quiet, surrounded by majestic peak forests. The hotel's design and aesthetic really hit the spot for me—the attention to detail and texture are top-notch, and the amenities in the room are very thoughtful. Sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, the rolling mountain views are right there in front of you, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in Yangshuo's landscape without even stepping outside.
The open-air infinity pool on the first floor faces the mountains directly. You definitely have to book a floating afternoon tea here; with the Karst peak forest in the background, you can effortlessly snap breathtaking, atmospheric photos. Be sure to check out the rooftop viewing platform on the 6th floor—the view is incredible and perfect for photos. You can also enjoy a coffee or afternoon tea here, sipping slowly while the mountain breeze blows by with the peaks right in front of you. There’s also a swing by the lawn where you can just sit, catch the breeze, and zone out. It’s the ultimate relaxing experience.
The butler service was very prompt and responsive, and their breakfast is a major highlight, packed with local character. This is the beauty of taking a relaxing off-peak vacation—no rushing around, just finding a cozy guesthouse to soak in the scenery at your own pace. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a place to stay in Yangshuo.

HHG1027I highly recommend this hotel in Guilin. The location is excellent; Elephant Trunk Hill and Sun and Moon Pagodas are all within walking distance. There are also many noodle shops and highly-rated restaurants nearby. We traveled to Guilin with our child and chose a family room on the 10th floor. The kids' play area is right outside the door in the hallway, and our child absolutely loved it and didn't want to leave the hotel. The rooms in this row, facing the play area, are very spacious and comfortable. They also come equipped with rocking horses, crawling mats, and small tents, making it an ideal choice for a family trip. On top of that, it offers great value for money. The hotel breakfast was also good; we stayed for three days, and the breakfast menu was different every morning. Oh, and the front desk also provided different small desserts every evening, which was a very nice touch!

For my last stop in Guilin, I booked this hotel, initially just planning to stay one night. I never expected that the biggest surprise of my 7-day trip would come from this place! Built right by the river, I got to experience fishing by the Li River, even seeing cormorants up close. Sitting in the hotel lobby, it truly felt like being inside a painting, and the whole world seemed to quiet down. I loved it, such a pleasant surprise. Plus, the front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful. Really great.

Guest UserFinally, I got to stay in my dream river-view room in Yangshuo! 🏨
This 270° river-view room with a balcony bathtub is picture-perfect; every shot looks like a masterpiece, offering exclusive romantic views of the Li River.
The location is a huge plus, making getting around super easy! It's a 5-minute walk to Guanlian Pier and just 10 minutes to Yangshuo West Street. It's also convenient to rent electric scooters nearby, and for those driving, there's a free parking lot and charging stations.
The massive balcony directly faces the Li River, offering panoramic views of the mountains and water, creating an instant luxurious ambiance. The hotel boasts a popular infinity pool and a 'Sky Mirror' that's great for photos, plus a fully equipped gym and a children's play area, making it suitable for both couples and families.
The breakfast and dinner experience was excellent. There's a rich selection of both Chinese and Western breakfast options, and upon check-in, we received a complimentary exquisite double welcome afternoon tea, which was both beautiful and delicious.

Guest UserI was very satisfied with the architecture and tranquility of The Sugar House. It's a shame that it was too hot during my recent visit, so I couldn't spend much time exploring outdoors. The architecture and scenery here are so skillfully integrated that there's no spot you wouldn't want to stop and admire.
Additionally, this hotel offers Black Diamond privileges, which included vouchers and some small gifts – a delightful surprise for my first experience.
The room was very clean and tidy, with comfortable bedding and excellent blackout curtains, allowing for a very peaceful sleep. The outdoor view was also beautiful; lounging or working on the balcony was quite relaxing.
The hotel offers many activities, so even if you don't leave the hotel during the National Day holiday, there's plenty to participate in. Unfortunately, due to my itinerary, I only got to experience the basket swing activity once.
Dinner at the restaurant was slightly more expensive than outside, but the taste was decent. Western cuisine seemed to be a slightly better choice than Chinese.
Breakfast had limited options, a combination of à la carte and buffet, and the taste was just okay, not particularly delicious. You can ask for dry mix rice noodles, as the default comes with soup, but I found the dry mix to be tastier.
I highly recommend the travel photography session. The photographer here previously worked for Earl Travel Photography, so their skills are excellent. The shooting process was very relaxed, and I was happy with the finished photos.
Some suggestions for improvement: the service staff seemed less professional. The restaurant staff stuttered when asked about dishes and mostly had expressionless faces. Some of them were interns. Also, the door leading to the balcony from the restaurant had no resistance and slammed shut if you let go, which was quite disruptive during meals. Furthermore, the body lotion in the toiletries was incredibly difficult to squeeze out; it took forever to get any out to use as a body lotion.
I might come back again when it's cooler. Overall, it was a good experience, and this was the best hotel experience I had in Yangshuo this time.

Olympic Gold Medalists⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Exceptional Hospitality and an Unforgettable Stay!
I recently spent three wonderful nights in a Superior Suite at the Lotus Luxury Hotel, and I must say the experience was absolutely exceptional!
Having travelled extensively and stayed in some of the world’s finest luxury hotels, I can confidently say that the hospitality and professionalism at this hotel were truly outstanding.
My first point of contact was Maylin, the hotel’s Loyalty Officer, who assisted me through WeChat before and during my stay. She was incredibly helpful, professional and attentive, arranging flowers, personal notes and several special requests. Her attention to detail made the experience even more memorable.
I would also like to give special recognition to Arron, whose friendly personality, professionalism and genuine passion for hospitality really stood out. He is certainly in the right industry, and his excellent customer service deserves recognition.
The suite was beautifully maintained, exceptionally clean and very comfortable. Staying on the 72nd floor, with breathtaking views, made the experience even more special.
The breakfast staff were equally welcoming and attentive. In particular, I would like to thank a lovely lady dressed in a black suit whom I encountered during the first two mornings of my stay. Her professionalism and helpfulness did not go unnoticed.
What truly makes this hotel special is not simply the luxury accommodation or spectacular views, but the people who work there. Their genuine warmth, attention to detail and dedication to excellent service are what separate a good hotel from an outstanding one.
Would I return? Absolutely, without hesitation!
Thank you to Maylin, Arron and the entire team for making my three-night stay such a memorable experience. I look forward to returning again soon.
Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates genuine five-star hospitality!

Guest UserThe room design is beautiful, and the floor-to-ceiling windows offer a great view. The front desk service was also excellent. When I arrived, I had a minor scrape on my foot, and the front desk staff promptly brought me iodine swabs and band-aids, which was incredibly thoughtful. They were always ready to help with anything I needed.
The most memorable part was the buffet on the 15th or 17th floor – 'No. 1 Seafood' – it was absolutely delicious! Guests get a 50 RMB discount, making it around 200 RMB per person.

Guest UserOverall, quite satisfied! The view from the top floor is great, and the complimentary beer 🍻 was a nice touch. It would be even better if the Coke in the fridge was zero sugar, though!
Being a newly opened hotel, I was surprised the toilet isn't a smart one (even guesthouses have smart toilets these days). Also, the toothbrush and pillows weren't very comfortable~
Everything else was quite satisfactory, especially catching the sunrise 🌅 on our last morning—it was breathtaking!

We stayed here during the October Golden Week holiday, booking a Deluxe Room on the 6th floor with a mountain view. The window offered a great view of the hotel lawn, pool, and distant mountains.
The Deluxe Club Lounge provides light meals. Since we were traveling with seniors and children who can't eat spicy food, we actually had fewer opportunities to try local delicacies outside the hotel, which is typical for family trips. We stayed for five days, and every evening we had dinner at the Club Lounge. The restaurant changed 1-2 hot dishes daily, but most other items remained the same. They always had freshly made Guilin rice noodles. Food quantity and hygiene were definitely not issues. I enjoy drinking tea, and it was available from day to night, conveniently located on the same floor as our room.
During the Golden Week, my child participated in a paid cookie-making activity. There were four children, and the session was well-organized, and the finished cookies were good. My child loved it.
On October 5th, we had booked a day trip to Longji Terraces, and the tour guide informed us we needed to leave at 5:40 AM, which meant missing breakfast. We contacted the hotel in advance, and they offered to pack a simple breakfast for us to take on the road. It included a boiled egg, yogurt, an apple, four types of small bread, and a bottle of water – very good, clean, and hygienic.
Besides the view, the hotel room also had good soundproofing. The shower head had strong water pressure, and I didn't notice any of the yellowing or damage mentioned in some reviews. However, the complimentary bottled water was a bit difficult to open, and there were no disposable toilet seat covers provided.
The hotel gym has a free ping-pong room. My son and I visited it twice and really enjoyed it.
Overall, it was a smooth and pleasant family trip.

The service attitude was excellent, and it's just a ten-minute walk to West Street. Parking right in front of the hotel is convenient, and it's about two kilometers to Guilin Romance Park. The hotel has a ball pit on the first floor which the kids absolutely loved. We'll definitely stay here again if we get the chance.
