Cyan Box Guest House

Super nice and welcoming hostel! I spent there two nights, it was super fun. Very social hostel with the option to have a dinner together in the restaurant close by that serves local food. They organised some trips and social activities like bachata classes. Shops, restaurants, street food close by, huge park as well. I recommend it a lot, the best option in Guilin!

I am really enjoying going around the city and the traditional restaurants that we have visited

I had such an amazing time at this hostel. It might not be the best hostel in China in terms of modernity and might at first not be the one you’d choose but I ended up spending the best time ever. The hostel is super social, with activities and meals planned every night. You can book directly at the hostel for your daily activities and you will most of the time end up with people from your hostel so it’s a great way to meet people. Furthermore, everyone in the staff is so incredibly nice and welcoming and they speak English! My only negative points would be the cleanliness which was sometimes not the best and the lack of lockers in the dorms but otherwise everything was amazing. It was my last stop after more than a month in China and it was one of my best hostel experience from the whole trip. Thank you so much.

Very cosy and convenient hostel! Run by the nicest and most warmhearted people. Located perfectly for daily excursions around Guilin and offers great tours and trips for fair price. Also organizes local dinners and stuff to help you socialize with other guests and the hosts.

Beautiful hostel, very convenient location, and very kind host, they make all the guests participate in group activities, and are very knowledgeable about things to do in Guilin, excellent English, you will feel welcomed like at home

Joe and Ellen are wonderful hosts! They clearly put a lot of effort in to create a sense of community.
