Hotels near Guilin No.2 Gymnasium in Guilin

Service is great! Very friendly staff. We shipped our luggage to the hotel, because we were traveling to different places in China. It was waiting on our arrival near the front desk. We only stayed here for one night, but would definitely go again next time.

The nine-day trip to Guilin ended, although we caught up with the coldest days in Guilin history from beginning to end, feeling the wet and cold in the south, but when we left, our hearts were warm. What warms me is the two hotels in Guilin, Meihao Hotel and Yishan Yunshui Hotel. The two hotels are attentive and have the delicateness of southerners. Yesterday was the winter solstice. The Meihao Hotel specially sent dumplings, which were put in taro rounds, red dates and wolfberry, sweet and fragrant. The waiters were basically local women of great age. They were friendly and kind. When we came to the restaurant every morning, They will greet you very warmly and kindly, and then make a bowl of Guilin rice noodles with a silky fragrance. We eat rice noodles every morning here, so we don't feel tired! The room at Yishan Yunshui Hotel is really great! Large suite, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, you can see the sunrise when you lie on the bed. Going out is the Yulong River. In the early morning, the villagers next to it came to the river to wash their clothes, a peaceful and beautiful picture! Finally, I would like to thank the tourism service staff in Guilin. Before I came, I heard that Guilin tourism was very dark and slaughtered, so I felt distrustful everywhere. But through contact, I think I was worried. The first contact was Cai Meng, who was in the Meihao Hotel. (*******************) She was very careful and told us that it was cheap to take a taxi through Xiaola. She also designed a route for us and told us how to buy tickets to save money. The most grateful thing is that she found us a good driver, Master Deng (***********). The master contacted us the first day and told us how to play better. The next day, the master took us to play one stop and one stop, and always told us not to worry and play slowly. We arrived at the Yulong River riding trail, because we would not ride a bucket bike, and the driver took us all the way. Finally, it was almost eight o'clock in Guilin, which made us very embarrassed. With Master Deng's company, we had a particularly pleasant day. Looking at the weather, Guilin began to heat up again the day after tomorrow. 20℃, everyone can come and live for a few days. Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, and the beautiful people are also beautiful!

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.

Bo Yin Hotel (Li River Secluded Hotel) Our visit to Guilin was to spend time with my wife’s large family and we twice stayed at the Li River Secluded hotel, for a total of 7 nights. Our expectations of a hotel experience are high, so we avoid using American chain hotels when possible. The Li River Secluded hotel more than met those expectations by combining exceptional customer service with a laid back, but luxurious guest experience. On arrival, we were offered a room upgrade. The upgrade accommodation was located on the ground floor, so this did not appeal to us until we were shown the room … the suite was spacious and tastefully furnished with a Zen motif that included a ceremonial tea table. Both my wife and I practice daily yoga, so the ample floor space immediately appealed to us. A room-width picture window featured a view of the Li River Lake and its pair of pagodas. Remote-controlled drapes and shears sound-proofed and eliminated light from the room when closed. A buffet daily breakfast on the 8th (top) floor was included and featured a good selection of both Chinese and Western options. We had family commitments that prevented us from eating dinner at the restaurant, but my wife hosted an afternoon tea session in the restaurant for some of her friends and the tea and pastries were excellent. In addition, fresh fruit was placed in the room every day, and the room refrigerator was refreshed daily with water, sodas, and snacks. The hotel was generally maintained in pristine condition and effected the highest standards of cleanliness. This applied to all the facilities apart from a small exercise room on the 5th floor. This consisted of a set of barbells (no bench), a fixed weight station (functional), and 2 treadmills, neither of which functioned properly … that said, I did use the weight station and the patio outside of the exercise room for yoga on a couple warmer days. There was also a guest laundry on the 5th floor which my wife used on one occasion. The customer service attitude in Chinese hotels is generally an improvement on what we are accustomed to in North America, but at the Bo Yin Hotel it’s exceptional. This means that English language speakers (I’m Canadian and my wife is Chinese by birth) would experience no problem in addressing any of the front desk, maid, or restaurant personnel. For those who prefer to order take-out food, a robotic delivery service is used, a feature that tends to fascinate any child you might be traveling with. Sean Bennett

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)

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!

The hotel is easy to find. It is just a short walk after getting off the train. It is very close to Xiangshan Park and the Day and Night Twin Towers Scenic Area. However, it is difficult to book a room. A family of three wanted to book a family room but could not. The front desk clerk immediately learned about the situation and immediately They arranged for us to add a super large bed. The service attitude was great. The room was really nice and the facilities were new. We slept very comfortably. The room we booked did not include breakfast. The staff also gave us three breakfasts. We got up and ran in the gym in the morning. After finishing the walk, we had breakfast directly. The breakfast was very good and included my favorite fat-reducing meal. Then we went to the free laundry and directly picked up the dried clothes. It was perfect.

I have never seen a hotel that pays so much attention to details. The service of this hotel is warm and thoughtful. From the moment guests arrive, there are dedicated staff to arrange parking spaces and guide parking. The rooms are spacious, warmly decorated, clean and hygienic, with refrigerators, umbrellas, sterilized plastic bath towels, towels and slippers, and spray disinfectant alcohol on the toilet. Bottles...etc., it makes people feel that every detail has been paid attention to. It’s amazing! The hotel is in a bustling neighborhood, very close to Xiangshan Mountain, Sun and Moon Twin Towers, and Jingjiang Prince's Palace. The hotel deserves good reviews. Highly recommended.

The room is neat, clean and large. The bathroom has enough water. There is a washing machine and dryer available. The hotel is near North Station and the bus station is right at the door. It is very convenient to go to tourist spots. There are shops and restaurants nearby and it is very cost-effective.

Great hotel in a great location. Walkable from the Guilin (south) train station (although you can ride 1 stop on the bus to cut the distance in half) and on the #100 route to Guilinbei (north) train station. Nicely situated for a walk along the river and the elephant hill park, and easy to catch the #3 bus to Reed Flute Cave. It's about 1km walk from the rest of the town, although if you are feeling lazy there are several bus routes into town. The hotel organised my ticket and transfer to the Guling-＞Yangshuo river cruise. There's no lift in the hotel, which could be an issue for some, but the reception staff insisted on carrying my suitcase up the stairs for me. There's a free washing machine and clothes drying area on the roof of one of the two buildings, with detergent provided. One of the receptionists spoke great English which was very useful booking the cruise, but also was happy to let me practice chatting in Mandarin with him.
