Pet Friendly Hotels in Guilin

We brought our kids to Yangshuo for a holiday, and the window view at this hotel completely cured my soul! The massive floor-to-ceiling windows offer an unobstructed view, letting you take in the karst peaks and green rice paddies right from your bed. Clouds drift around the mountaintops, and the landscape unfolds like a moving traditional Chinese painting, bringing you up close and personal with nature – the ambiance is absolutely incredible 🌿. The 'Sky Mirror' on the rooftop is a must-visit spot. The reflection of the unique peaks, blue sky, and white clouds in the mirror makes for stunning, 'healing' photos every time. Downstairs, there's an outdoor pool and a fun kids' playground, keeping the little ones happy splashing around all day long. The dining experience was incredibly thoughtful. They offer a rich buffet breakfast, exquisite afternoon tea, and even comforting late-night noodles. It's a one-stop solution for food and accommodation when traveling with kids.

Checked in on the seventh day of the Chinese New Year. The price was around 400, which was great value for money. As soon as we entered the courtyard, there was an adorable alpaca, and my child was thrilled. The room and environment were both very nice, and the location was excellent. It's right off the main street with plenty of food options. You can rent an electric scooter at the entrance, and if you ride towards the back gate, you'll reach the Yulong River with beautiful scenery. A pleasant stay overall.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute Hidden Gem in Yangshuo - 10/10 Would Return! Stayed here for r days I cannot sing high enough praises for the Free Bird (自由鸟) Hotel during our recent Yangshuo trip - this place turned a good holiday into an unforgettable one, and I cannot recommend it enough! First, the location is pure magic. Tucked away from the noisy main tourist streets, it sits in a wonderfully peaceful area where you can wake up to the soft sound of birds and distant views of the iconic karst peaks. No blaring street music or crowded sidewalks right outside, but all the major attractions and local eateries are still just a short 10-minute stroll or cheap bike ride away. It’s the perfect sweet spot for anyone who wants to unwind after a day of exploring without being cut off from everything. But what really blew us away was the staff - they are the heart and soul of this hotel. Every single team member was so warm, attentive, and genuinely eager to help, not just going through the motions. When we had no clue how to plan some activities in Yangshuo, they helped us to manage it, mapped out a fully customized itinerary, and even arranged all the activities for us at better local rates than we found online: a sunrise bamboo raft trip on the Yulong River. The whole vibe of the hotel is cozy, laid-back, and full of little thoughtful touches that make you feel right at home. If you’re tired of generic, overpriced chain hotels in Yangshuo’s busy core and want a quiet escape run by people who actually care about your trip, this is the place to book. Already planning our next visit!

This is the most satisfying Zen-style hotel I've stayed at in Yangshuo! Nestled by mountains and rivers, it offers stunning, immersive views directly facing the Yulong River and its picturesque peaks. Looking out at the lotus pond is incredibly refreshing and perfect for photos! The room was clean and elegant, with a comfortable and serene Zen-inspired decor. The facilities were complete, and the soundproofing was excellent. The staff provided attentive and thoughtful service, and breakfast was nutritious and fresh. The hotel boasts a swimming pool, a scenic tea room, and even wellness experience programs. It's a tranquil oasis amidst the bustle, making it an excellent choice for a relaxing getaway. I highly recommend staying here when you visit Yangshuo!

All in all an extremely pleasant stay! The location is absolutely stunning. Sure, it might be a little bit off the beaten track, but the views are all the more rewarding and the hiking path from Dazhai is also highly recommended. The hotel lobby also functions as a big living room and a little restaurant run by the owners. The food is excellent and well priced (definitely try their rice wine!). Because we were there in winter and it was cold, the owners even put a small radiator under our table to make it comfortable. Generally, the owners were super nice and friendly and adding their absolutely adorable puppy, we almost couldn't bring ourselves to leave. The rooms were very clean, have a small separate bathroom and we had a small balcony with view over the rice terraces. For a more budget option there is also rooms without AC or view, in that case you can still enjoy quite a bit of the scenery from the living room downstairs or just by exploring the surroundings on foot. (The picture is shot from our balcony, but sadly some of the view was obscured by the winter mist.) We will definitely try to come again sometime in summer and are already excited thinking about staying in this hotel again.

What can I say.... AMAZING!! We stayed here for 2 nights and enjoyed both nights!! From when we first check in, the lady who checked us in, helped us with our suitcase and they are big one too! (note there is no elevator). To the lady that work at night and cook our yummy breakfast in the morning, thank you! We are both vegetarian, so she was always checking to make sure we can eat it. She was super friendly, talk to us and tell us what is nice to explore/play, and make sure we have enough food to eat! On the last day when we have to check out early as we have to catch the Li River Cruise, she make sure we have food to eat and that we can bring on the boat to eat as well. She was very thoughtful! The location is over the bridge about a 10 mins walk to ZhengYang Pedestrian Street. I prefer here as it more quieter rather than on the main street. Furthermore, it not that far, with only a 10 mins walk along the river and you will reach most places. I also loved the decor in the hotel as well, it has everything you need. They provided free snack, and we did try some too!! Good to try local snacks which we did end up buying when we saw it lol. You could also go up to the roof top, which will provide a 360 view, especially the view looking out to the Li River on a nice fine day is so worth it! Lastly, my mum left some of her belonging in the hotel and forgot to pack when we check out. They courier this to our next hotel in Yangshou, which is very thoughtful of them. Overall, I would definitely recommend anyone wanting to stay here.

I stayed in a twin room, and overall it was decent. One of the beds was right next to the door, but it wasn't noisy at night. There were quite a few mosquitoes, and even though the hotel provided an electric mosquito repellent, it wasn't very effective, so it's best to bring your own insect repellent. The only downside was the open-plan bathroom, which felt a bit too exposed. You definitely need to close the door when showering, otherwise, it feels like you're going to flood the place. The hotel is right next to the old street downstairs, and they offer meals. Breakfast is free, but other meals are charged. This is my personal experience, for your reference.

Overall, the experience was excellent, exceeding my expectations. The hotel environment was clean and tidy, with no unpleasant odors in the corridors and public areas, which made me feel very safe. The room was spacious enough, with simple and elegant decor. The bed was just the right firmness, and the pillows were very comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The bathroom was spotless, with all necessary toiletries provided, and hot water was readily available. The front desk staff were warm and polite, patiently answering any questions and responding quickly. The location is excellent, with a bus stop right outside and many shopping areas nearby, making dining and shopping very convenient. The price-performance ratio is very high compared to similar hotels. My stay was very comfortable, and I would definitely recommend it and stay here again.

The newly renovated room is very clean. The boss is very nice. He helped us pack the fruits we bought outside so that we can carry them with us when we move in. It was great! Thank you very much boss! ! !

Staying at Gui Tu You You Xiao Zhu during my Yangshuo trip was great! It's just a few steps away from West Street, offering a quiet escape despite being so central. The room was clean and comfortable, and the owner was very welcoming. Being so close to everything made exploring and dining super convenient. Overall, I felt very safe and comfortable throughout my stay. 🌹
