Hotel Mesra haiwan peliharaan di Guangxi, China

Wow wow wow! What an amazing experience! Really nice hotel in a quiet area with mind blowing views. And mostly the staff and service was amazing. I stayed at many 5 star hotels and resorts in my life, but this has to be one of the best experiences. The service provided via wechat with instant responss to make your stay and trip better (and great recommendations!), evening sweet soup, nice breakfast, DIY experiences,... Everything was top notch amazing.

Hua Lu (Lost in Nature) Hotel My wife and I stayed here for three nights in December 2023, but regretted that our schedule did not allow us to stay longer. The Hua Lu Hotel is a charming boutique hotel located in the Ming Shi village that features clusters of needle mountains that aggressively protrude from what otherwise appears to be a level agricultural plain. The origins of the village were for its farming potential but the stunning beauty of the location has popularized it as a tourist haunt, a place to visit either before or after checking out the Detian Waterfall on the China-Vietnam border. In among the locals’ modest houses, several B&Bs and hotels have sprouted to cater to tourists wanting a wide spectrum of accommodations from the extremely basic up to relatively high-end resorts. The Hua Lu (Lost in Nature) is best categorized as a high-end boutique hotel. It is situated on the eastern periphery of Ming Shi well away (approximately a kilometer) from a busy highway around which many of its competitors are clustered. The accent at the Hua Lo is on tranquility. Our room was a well-conceived suite that had been furnished with a Zen sensibility. The bathroom featured an oversize bathtub and separate shower unit, and there was a spacious and comfortable sitting area. A south-facing balcony overlooked an intensely cultivated, multi-acre market-garden, irrigated by river-fed, man-made channels. Locals could be observed tending crops from dawn to dusk in these fields. A Chinese style breakfast was included the room fee, but we also opted to eat dinner each evening in the hotel restaurant. Both breakfast and dinner meals were prepared with an accent on health and use of locally grown foods. After dark, an open fireplace in a courtyard was used to barbecue snacks such as sweet potato and chicken: the courtyard doubled as a children’s play area and storage place for bicycles (pedal) which could be used by hotel guests. Evidence suggests that tourism has trumped agriculture as the main occupation of the Ming Shi village. For tourists who prefer a more communal experience, the village offers guided sampan tours on the river that wends its way through the village. However, the best way to benefit from the village scenery is by bicycle. Cycling around the village and its dramatic needle-mountain vistas is easy, the bike trails are converted ag paths that intertwine the crop fields. They are paved and free of the traffic of tourist coaches, trucks and E-scooters that rage along the main highway. My wife and I felt that we had come across a gem of experience that vastly exceeded our expectations when we booked the hotel. We plan to visit again next year, to enjoy a longer stay with the R&R it provides. Sean Bennett

I was droppy off by my tour bus in Yangshuo downtown so I booked a Didi to the hostel for only 9 kuai. Take note that the hostel is not along a major street. From the pinned location, cross to the other side and walk straight. There is an old building bearing the name Lao Ban Cheng but that is not the one. Head forward and you'll find the neon sign. The check-in was fast and I was given to a bunk bed room for two people but I was the only one in the room. There is a private toilet and bathroom and they have a water heater and hair dryer. The location is only near West Street for good food and shopping. I found a restaurant that offers RMB 68 for a set meal of beer fish, veggies, and stir fried chicken (I think). I don't eat rice so I devoured everything on my own. The Yangshuo Railway Station is about 50 minutes away from the hostel. You can take a bus from West Street to Downtown Yangshuo for RMB 2 and then bus to the railway station for RMB 22. But I was lazy so I just booked Didi and left the hostel at 8:30. I paid RMB 68. IT was a good decision as I still saw more karst mountains. The hostel offers basic breakfast of bread and hot drinks but I was not up to it. But this is a big plus for a budget accommodation. I would book this hostel again if I find myself in Yangshuo again.

A beautiful hotel in a perfect location with exceedingly friendly and helpful staff. A very short walk from the top of the rice terraces and the views as well as a great starting point for long walks. The staff were wonderful throughout the stay, even though it was a very busy time (Chinese new year), they went out of their way for anything that I needed. The breakfast was amazing every day and the food ordered at the hotel was perfect. Completely recommend staying here for anyone who is in the area.

Good location of 100m from Bus Terminal, right at main Entrance of Old Ancient Town, in area of streets of restaurants, cafe, eateries, mini markets etc. Hostel is of good vibe for travellers with sofa area, BBQ pit, dining tables etc. Hostel unit is of good wifi signal, hot water shower, AC room unit, access card for female dorm, shampoo, clean sheets, water dispenser and hairdryer. Host is responsive to text messages, safe choice for Solo female backpacker. Highly recommend!

Nice place, I rented scooter for very reasonable price. Excellent location, they were so helpful. Provide transportation to railway station. Cons. Some hair around the room and in bathroom. Overall I'm happy of my choice.

酒店位置在金坑大寨，在房間可以看到梯田景色，住進了油畫裏，住了一天後直接續住一天 在外面玩回來直接在民宿吃飯，飯菜很美味，頓頓光盤，寶寶特別喜歡喝老闆釀的米酒，甜味沒有度數。 這幾天陣雨，下雨的時候直接在酒店躺平，停雨了就去稻田抓魚，寨子裏散步，悠閑自在 老闆人很好，還開車送我們上金佛頂

這家酒店的裝修風格正是我喜歡的，奶白色的格調，房間温馨漂亮，佈置得非常精緻，陽台寬敞明亮，視野開闊，讓人心情愉悦。床鋪柔軟舒適，讓人一夜好眠。衞生間乾淨整潔，設施齊全，使用起來非常方便，還有投影儀可以用。酒店的小哥哥，人非常熱情，幫我做攻略，租電車，什麼都有♥對了，還有早餐，阿姨煮的桂林米粉很好吃，還有皮蛋瘦肉粥，白粥等，挺好的♥ 酒店還有衹地包天，哈哈，很搞笑，超級胖，很乖，也不叫，誰都讓摸，還握手，很通人性哈哈 強烈推薦這家酒店，以後來陽朔還住這裏！！！

during my 10 days holiday I sleep in different hotels almost every day but only in this one I had good,.comfortable sleep. Bed is wide and soft, room is spacious and quiet. Hosts are friendly and helpful. Very convenient location, 5 minutes walk from the train station Guilin North.

This was a fantastic place to stay to see the Rice Terraces. The hotel hosts were very hospital and friendly and the food was good.

We stayed here for just one night with my husband and my parents after Yangshuo. The service from the front desk was great! They were all very nice to us and brought dessert to us at night. The rooms were clean, slightly noisy at night because right by the street but the location and convenience can’t be beat, 5 minute walk to the pier for the river raft rides and 20 minute walk to town. We also had lunch at the hotel’s restaurant and it was delicious. They also include complimentary shuttle to the train station when we left which was convenient. We went to the rooftop and it had an amazing view of the mountains. Overall, would definitely recommend staying here if you’re exploring Xingping!

酒店地理位置超級好，旁邊就是西街。去十里畫廊很方便，周圍吃東西的選擇很多。就是節假日人太多啦，酒店外面路邊打車有點困難。住酒店還贈送小紅旗，真不錯。酒店的早餐也很豐盛，小孩很喜歡吃。尤其是晚上的夜景很美，住宿給力。

The rooms are nice and comfortable but what makes this hotel very special is Lilly, the owner. She speaks perfect English and will help you throughout your stay whether you're looking for a place to eat, need to book a transport or organise any kind of activity.

Zen Garden was our most remote hotel during our China tour. The location is undeniably beautiful, offering stunning views of the hills and mountains. However, despite receiving an upgrade after the first night, we found the price-quality ratio unsatisfactory. We paid the same amount for our stay in a five-star hotel the following day in Nanjing, which provided a significantly better room and breakfast. Since its opening in 2017, the hotel appears to have undergone little to no maintenance. There is noticeable wear and tear on the building, and the toilet emitted a strong sewage odor, which was quite unpleasant. Communication was a challenge as Cindy was the only staff member who spoke English properly. When she wasn't available, it was difficult to communicate in person. Fortunately, the WeChat communication was an excellent alternative and made things easier. On a positive note, the afternoon tea and dinner were quite good, offering healthy and fresh options. Breakfast was very limited and none Western options except an egg and white toast with butter. The complimentary zen shoot was a nice touch, although it was apparent that it was the photographer's first time conducting such a shoot. We were particularly disappointed with the spa. The treatments were much different than expected, lacking the luxury and expertise typically associated with such high prices. Additionally, the cost for two people was almost the same as the room rate, which we found unreasonable. Overall, while Zen Garden's location and some amenities were enjoyable, the lack of maintenance, high prices, and communication difficulties detracted from our experience. With all the new buildings in the same area, there are better options.

This Hotel is right at The Xingping Pier that’s the best and first thing for people wanting to do Boating . The old couple is very friendly helpful n very nice. It’s a home stay so pls don’t expect Hotel experience. Simple Neat and Easy to move around . All the toiletries were kept , Bed lines were clean n overall hygiene was good. Trek to the top of the mountain for Sunset photography. Boating choose this one. We r from Bangalore India and just booked only one night as we weren’t sure n didn’t want any surprises.

A beautiful hotel in a perfect location with exceedingly friendly and helpful staff. A very short walk from the top of the rice terraces and the views as well as a great starting point for long walks. The staff were wonderful throughout the stay, even though it was a very busy time (Chinese new year), they went out of their way for anything that I needed. The breakfast was amazing every day and the food ordered at the hotel was perfect. Completely recommend staying here for anyone who is in the area.

This was a fantastic place to stay to see the Rice Terraces. The hotel hosts were very hospital and friendly and the food was good.

Initially hard to find using apple maps. Contacted the owner who through wechat and translate sent the location but we had to have her father to collect us by foot on the main street, we were 2 minutes away but it's a windy collection of stone steps and alleyways. Stayed in a double room, clean and tidy. Good strong shower and hot water and effective WiFi and air con. Easy access to main viewing points situated between the 2 main look outs. Be prepared to climb steps and wear good footwear as slippery when wet. Hotel offers breakfast lunch and dinner. We opted for breakfast which we requested the night before. Large bowl of chicken Noodle soup for 15 yuan. Great to start the day.

The service has been excellent. The owner, despite not speaking English, has been very helpful, helping us at all times with anything and always with a smile. The hotel has very good views, directly on the rice terraces and with a very decent community space. The quality-price ratio is excellent, highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay in this hotel. It had superb views with the mountain range and valley on one side (from our room) and the rice terraces on the other (about 50m walk from the hotel) we had a delicious breakfast of rice noodles and poached eggs. The shower was excellent and we had the room cleaned and fresh towels on request. It is very easy to get to the hotel, from the town take a taxi to the area outside the ticket office then ride the open bus (20rmb) up the mountain to the hotel door, couldn’t be easier. One final note, we left 3 fridge magnets behind and the hotel owner drove 10km to return them to us. I think this tells you all you need to know about the service. Would definitely return to this hotel.

The view from the room was simply incredible! Sometimes when booking hotels the photos versus reality is not quite the same, but in this case I would say it was exactly what the pictures show, maybe even better! The hotel was also right next to the hike up to viewing platform #2 which was very convenient since we only had a short while in Longji. The staff were friendly and welcoming, really going out of their way to help us when needed. There was also a place to do laundry and a steam dryer which was very handy. If we are ever back in Longji, we would definitely come back here!

The stay was good but only drawback is this hotel is located on the top, so you have to climb many steps to reach this and if you have more luggage its really very hard and you will have to hire someone to help with your luggage

We took special bus from Yangshuo straight to Dazhai, then the owner had someone fetch us from DaZhai parking lot and drove a few minutes to the parking lot nearest their hotel. How did we book and organize this? We simply contacted the hotel via WeChat and they helped arrange everything for us. 15min hike, and we are in the hotel. No elevator, but there was a cable car that carried our stuff up to the mountain. The room was fantastic, the location was superb, the food was good. Even if you do not leave the hotel and just stayed inside the room, you'll have a fantastic time. Water is from spring so it's fresh and potable. You can wash your clothes for free but depending on the season, it may take a long time to dry. They don't have dryer and we could only hang our clothes. View from the room is good, and going up to the viewing platform only takes around 6 minutes.

房間挺大，三人兩🐶住足夠了。 老闆到停車場接的，因為從停車場得走一小段台階路進村子。 建議拎包進村，因為台階路，行李箱不方便。 景色很美，第二天一早從村子向上，爬上二號觀景台，衹用了20多分鐘，比上三號觀景台還得坐纜車方便多了。 店家的小寶貝特別熱情好客，把他的水槍送我玩兒，還請我吃了一大把瓜簍子♡♡ 現殺雞、燒雞、炒菜，配上米酒，鮮美原味。 因為雨季，被子有點濕濕的，但卻是我們這次行程睡得最香的一次。
