Spa hotels in Guilin

The hotel service is attentive and thoughtful, and the staff are extremely responsible. They actively noticed a left-behind item and contacted me promptly, which gave great peace of mind. The rooms are clean and comfortable, making for a wonderful stay. The front desk responds quickly and communication was smooth. The overall environment is pleasant, and the service is meticulous and heartwarming. Staying here for trips gives great peace of mind, with an overall sense of comfort. The service is thoughtful and reliable, and care and effort can be felt everywhere. Choosing this place for travel feels very reassuring, and I will definitely come back on my next business trip.

I have traveled to more than 30 countries over the past 12 years, and this is the first time I have truly felt that I could call a hotel ”home”—even though so many hotels try to create that feeling. We live in France and flew to China for vacation, hoping to experience both the peaceful natural wonders and the lively local culture of Yangshuo. This hotel’s location is perfect! It sits directly in front of the Li River with an unobstructed view, yet it is just a short walk to West Street and the harbor. We could easily switch between a peaceful, relaxing session overlooking the river and an energetic exploration of the local crowds. Taking a warm bath while gazing at the river and mist-shrouded mountains—all while enjoying local tea and sweets—was an unforgettable experience. The hotel itself is brand new, featuring excellent and spotless facilities, including a 24-hour free self-service laundry and a rooftop with stunning open views. The design beautifully blends modern style with local Chinese Zhuang culture. On top of that, the hotel offers free access to local ”Ta-Ying” activities, photo shoots in traditional minority costumes, and discounted tickets for popular local shows like Impression Liu Sanjie. Most importantly, the hospitality was extraordinary. The team treated us with immense care and kindness from the moment we arrived until well after we got back home to France! They used professional translation devices to ensure seamless communication. The hotel manager, Ms. Ni, along with front desk staff Ms. Deng and Ms. Li, not only responded attentively to every request throughout our stay, but also provided invaluable advice for exploring Yangshuo. We were even given a thoughtful gift set when checking out at 6:00 AM, followed by a warm message once we returned home. This level of hospitality truly deserves to be recognized and appreciated. I am deeply grateful for their professionalism and hard work, and I wish the entire team and the hotel all the best!

I visited during the off-peak season, and the hotel's location is excellent, just a few minutes' walk from the cruise pier, making it convenient to get to West Street. The river view room really won me over, and there's also a viewing terrace upstairs. The service was great; the front desk and restaurant staff were very polite and thoughtful. The hardware facilities are far superior to chain hotels – the lighting control, power outlets, sofa, and bedside tables are all very thoughtfully designed. The only minor thing is that the cruise boats on the river might sound their horns; I heard it twice in the morning, but it was still acceptable. I'd give it a 4.5-star rating to encourage them! 😁 Overall, I highly recommend this place and will choose to stay here again on my next visit.

🛏️ **Room Experience** The rooms boast a minimalist yet luxurious design, with the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows being the highlight. From the comfort of your bed, you can gaze out at the Yu Long River. Some rooms even feature an oversized scenic bathtub, allowing you to soak while enjoying panoramic views of the mountains and countryside. Equipped with projectors and comfortable furnishings, every detail is meticulously considered, perfect for unwinding after your travels and quietly savoring the slow pace of life amidst nature. 🌿 **Surrounding Environment** You can stroll through rice paddies within the hotel grounds, and it's conveniently close to the Yu Long River bamboo raft pier. This made getting around during the National Day holiday very easy. There's no need to wake up early and jostle with crowds; you can immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Yangshuo's mountains and rivers right from the hotel.

I 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.

The location is good, not too far to walk to West Street. Renting an electric scooter from here to visit the Ten-Mile Gallery is a great choice. The hotel rooms are clean and comfortable, and it's not too noisy. However, I'd recommend traveling during off-peak times, as the area around the hotel gets extremely congested on holidays.

Hidden away in the mountains, Muye Hotel offers a peaceful and relaxing environment, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. The rooms are clean and tidy with simple yet elegant decor, and the bedding ensures a very comfortable sleep. The front desk staff are warm and attentive, responding quickly to any requests. The views from the windows are expansive and perfect for taking great photos. Overall, it's excellent value for money. It's a very comfortable place for a relaxing holiday, and definitely worth another visit!

The most healing moment of my trip to Yangshuo was staying at the Norton Manor by the Yulong River 🌿. Away from the hustle and bustle of West Street, this niche British-style manor hidden in the Ten-Mile Gallery feels like stepping into a pink castle nestled among Guilin's karst mountains—so gentle and romantic. Expansive green lawns fill your view, complemented by scattered British architecture, cute dwarf huts, and atmospheric palm trees. Every single spot is exquisite and photogenic; you don't even need to look for special angles, as any casual snap turns out like a soothing blockbuster. Floor-to-ceiling windows look straight out over the karst peak forests, and the trendy scenic bathtub faces the stunning landscape. In the morning, watch the mist wrap around the mountains; in the evening, watch the sunset wash over the bamboo groves. Right downstairs flows the gentle Yulong River, where bamboo rafts glide leisurely by, unfolding a traditional landscape painting right before your eyes. Here, there is no need to rush your itinerary—just slow down. Breeze through the day, daydream, gaze at the mountains, and listen to the wind. Leave all your fatigue to this gentle landscape; this is the ultimate way to enjoy a Yangshuo vacation. #YangshuoTravel #YangshuoB&B #NortonManor #YulongRiverTenMileGallery #GuilinLandscape #HealingGetaway #NicheDreamyStay

The hotel is located right by the Li River! The location is superb, just a few minutes' walk to the bustling West Street, and also very close to the cruise terminal, making it super convenient for taking a bamboo raft tour on the Li River and getting around! The Sky Mirror observation deck on the top floor is a major highlight of the hotel – you can snap amazing photos effortlessly from there 📸. The rooms are spacious and airy, featuring a 270° river view balcony and even a private hot tub. It's incredibly relaxing to feel the river breeze and gaze at the mountains in your downtime!! The hotel amenities are comprehensive!! An infinity pool 🏊, kids' playground 🎠, gym 🏋️, and laundry room are all available. The breakfast offers a wide variety of choices, including Guilin rice noodles! You can start your day full and energized. Overall, the experience was a perfect 10. Next time I visit Yangshuo, I'll definitely choose this place again 👍

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.
