Wonderful Stay Near Yangshuo Railway Station in xingping I recently stayed at this lovely hotel right beside Yangshuo Railway Station, and my entire experience was cozy, relaxing and highly satisfying, making it a great pick for both local and international travelers. The most convenient benefit is the complimentary shuttle service between Yangshuo Railway Station and the hotel, providing free pickups and drop-offs. This took all the stress out of traveling with heavy luggage after a train journey. One minor note: the shuttle only runs until 6 PM, so after this time, guests will need to arrange their own taxi to and from the station. The rooms are incredibly spacious, bright and immaculately clean. The room comes with a large bathtub and a mini-fridge and the best window view, the hotel has a reliable elevator for easy access to upper floors. The front desk staff were warm, polite and always ready to help with any requests during our stay. The hotel grounds are beautifully landscaped and peaceful. There is a charming garden area with a tree house, a swing, and a shaded chill-out spot surrounded by lush green trees, perfect for unwinding outdoors. Inside the garden sits a western-style restaurant, and right beside it is a small pond filled with colorful goldfish, which adds a calm, scenic vibe to the property. The hotel also features a nice swimming pool for guests to enjoy. The surrounding area blends historic old buildings that evoke the charm of traditional Chinese dynasties with modern amenities, striking a lovely balance between old-world character and comfort. Breakfast at the hotel mainly consists of local Yangshuo dishes, which is fantastic for guests who love regional Chinese flavors. Since many foreign visitors stay here, it would be a thoughtful improvement to add freshly brewed coffee from a machine and bread options to the breakfast spread, as not all international guests prefer noodles in the morning. We got great coffee from the on-site western restaurant in the garden, which was really tasty. For e-bike rentals, there are local vendors right next to the hotel gate offering bikes, though their prices are a bit on the higher side. If you walk just around 50 meters away from the hotel, you’ll find plenty of other rental shops with much more reasonable rates 30 yuan . Overall, every part of our stay felt comfortable and pleasant, and we truly enjoyed every moment here. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Yangshuo, especially travelers looking for a convenient location near the train station and a peaceful, well-kept property with friendly service.

What a delightful surprise this century-old guesthouse turned out to be! ✨ The courtyard has so much character; the old, historic building is elegantly and comfortably maintained, with lush greenery everywhere – perfect for photos. The manager was attentive and reliable, responding promptly to any issues. The guesthouse is very close to the spot featured on the 20 RMB note and the Li River bamboo raft pier. The disembarkation point for boats traveling from Guilin to Yangshuo is also in this vicinity. Staying here allows you to leisurely soak in the landscapes of Yangshuo; it's highly recommended! A small tip for those traveling during peak season: Yangshuo has traffic controls during busy periods. I recommend heading out before 8 or 9 AM if possible. If you get caught by the controls, getting in and out can be quite troublesome, so planning your travel times wisely will save you a lot of hassle.

The room was clean and tidy, and the breakfast spread was impressive. It's conveniently located near the Li River cruise terminal, and Xiangong Mountain isn't too far either. You can even rent electric scooters nearby. The butler service was available 24/7. It was a shame the bonfire was canceled due to the rain.

Hidden deep in Xingping's mountains, this century-old house became a repository of sweet memories from my daughter's graduation trip. Our biggest surprise during my daughter's kindergarten graduation trip was stumbling upon this guesthouse nestled in the mountains. It's not just a place to stay; it feels more like a century-old home gently embraced by time. The weathered blue-grey brick walls whisper tales of years gone by, while the wooden beams and window frames still bear the imprints of a bygone era. The scattered dark tiles seem to catch every sunrise, sunset, and cloud formation the mountains have to offer. From a dilapidated old farmhouse to its current incarnation as a courtyard house boasting both a Western restaurant and bar, as well as a Chinese restaurant, it has shed its former roughness while preserving its most precious original charm. What truly touched me was the service. When we wanted to go to the county town at night, the owner not only promptly helped us arrange a taxi but was also incredibly warm and helpful. The guesthouse's ambiance is also incredibly photogenic; my daughter took so many pictures she loved, her smile even brighter than the mountain sunshine. This wasn't just a stay; it was like a conversation with the past. It's definitely one of my favorite guesthouses I've ever stayed in. Thank you for tenderly restoring this old house and for making our journey so warm and memorable.

I rarely choose homestays these past few years, but this time I stayed at Dufu Yayuan, and both the room and public areas were aesthetically pleasing, as was the service. Overall, the stay exceeded my expectations, and the kids had a great time!

Just a short walk to the Li River, near the Yellow Cloth Reflection. Compared to hotels in Xingping Ancient Town, this place is much quieter, surrounded by a natural, unspoiled atmosphere, and parking is very convenient. The hotel rooms are spacious, clean, and hygienic. Breakfast is great, and the wontons are delicious. The hotel's own food is also excellent; I wish we had known earlier, we wouldn't have bothered looking for restaurants in town. The front desk staff are very enthusiastic and helped us with many issues. The swimming pool is a highlight, especially at night when the lights are on, it's very relaxing. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place! We liked it there) very close to the river. Beautiful nature 🌿 Only 1 minus - it was a bit hard to get a DD to the airport (and it’s more than 2 hours drive), you better book a driver in advance.

During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, around 200 years ago, the old residence of Yang Ziji, then governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, was transformed into a high-end museum homestay. The house is a unique green brick and wood structure in Guangxi. It is located on the bank of the Huangbu Reflection River, the most beautiful scenic spot in Yangshuo, and covers an area of 1800 square meters. Famous designers worked hard to build it, and completed it after two years of repair and renovation, while preserving the original style and layout of the house. The quadrangle courtyard is divided into a front courtyard, a middle courtyard, a back courtyard, and a middle hall Zuwu Museum and Laowu Bar. The village is known as Yangjia Village for its descendants of the Yang family.
"Sail against the current to Guilin and sail downstream to Guangzhou." Starting from a small town, follow the Lijiang River, connect Guilin and Hunan, connect the Central Plains, descend to Wuzhou and Guangdong, and reach overseas. With a hundred years of vicissitudes, this old house is reclusive among green waters and green mountains. She will welcome visitors from all directions with a new style and features. Together, we will come to this warm house, enjoy the pure and quiet nature, and savor the flavor of history. There are so many tourists and tourists who have taken the trouble to admire their names again and again. Obsolescence is actually a kind of beauty, which hoards years, culture, and history. This kind of beauty can only be viewed and cannot be copied.
