Lijiang Moon View · Quiet Holiday Lakeside Hotel (Guilin Two Rivers & Four Lakes Area) ★★★★
"Very nice hotel, the most modern that we had in China until now. The bath was near the window viewing on the lake … There were a lot of amenities in the room, free laundry service, beautiful pool on the rooftop, good breakfast … all in all very functional. The only minus is the staff on the reception - not very cooperative and helpful."

Xiangbishan Port House | City core stroll city center hotel (Guilin two rivers and four lakes store) ★★★★
"My stay this time was exceptional. It's rare to receive such thoughtful care at a hotel. The front desk staff who checked me in was a lovely and gentle young woman. She communicated with me in detail before check-in, fully accommodating my actual needs. After helping me with check-in, she enthusiastically helped move my luggage to the room and explained the room layout and where things were located, making me feel right at home. The room itself was clean and tidy, ensuring a comfortable stay. When I checked out, she even helped me communicate with the local driver, which greatly reduced my travel stress – I'm especially grateful to her! The auntie at breakfast on the 27th was also very kind and thoughtfully helped guests season their Guilin rice noodles. Additionally, the hotel's location is excellent. It's very convenient to walk to attractions like Elephant Trunk Hill, Jingjiang Prince City, Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area (Twin Pagoda Park), and Zhengyang Pedestrian Street. Plus, it's not too far from both Guilin Station and Guilin North Station."
