Pet friendly Hotels in Guilin

The welcome amenities were a thoughtful touch – a fruit platter and drinks in the fridge, really showing attention to detail. The Sky Mirror on the top floor offers stunning panoramic views of the mountains, and the outdoor pool has an incredible vibe, perfect for photos. With the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, you wake up to a breathtaking vista of rolling green hills, like a living landscape painting. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options, the afternoon tea was delightful, and they even had complimentary late-night noodles. The hotel's back door leads right to a scenic walking path, great for a leisurely stroll, and you can easily walk to Gongnong Bridge to catch the sunset. It's truly a one-stop destination for eating, staying, and playing – a complete vacation experience.

Before my trip, I looked at many guesthouses and finally chose Ziyouniao (Free Bird). That was such a wise decision! The scenery is absolutely stunning; every photo I took looked like a masterpiece, and I didn't have to deal with crowds. The room was huge and had its own pool. The cleanliness, facilities, and service were all excellent 😎. The complimentary fruit and drinks in the room were incredibly generous, and mineral water was unlimited. If you don't feel like going out, you can have a great time just staying at the hotel. On the last day, because we were exploring a cave, we missed lunchtime, but the restaurant still provided warm service, and the complimentary beer fish was delicious. This is definitely a hotel I'd recommend to my friends.

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!

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.

The kids all said it was great, even calling it the best hotel they've ever stayed in – high praise indeed! 👍 Facilities: It feels more like a B&B, with top-notch facilities and a wonderful atmosphere! We booked the loft style, but unfortunately, the weather wasn't good, so we couldn't stargaze from bed! Cleanliness: Good! Environment: The environment is outstanding, right inside the ancient town. The decor style is exactly what I like! There's an abundance of greenery, and it's well-maintained! Even the little nooks are thoughtfully decorated – you can tell a lot of care went into it! Service: The service was excellent. The proprietress was efficient and even helped us book bamboo raft tickets!

Must praise this store! The boss is a young boss. The store has a good good and cute kitten, and it is very cool to play the cat when resting. The whole house is well done, and all corners are cleaned up. It's much better than I thought, much better. On the first night I arrived, I lay in bed and wanted to watch dramas. I found that there was no video member. The boss immediately opened SVIP. The service is super good. The warmest thing is that I blow the air conditioner and catch a cold. I have to catch the high-speed rail downstairs the next day. I asked if there were paper towels. I smoked a few tables. I was going out to find a convenience store. The boss saw that I kept wiping my nose and took the initiative to take a pack of paper towels to me. The details are full, the service is not perfunctory, it is really comfortable to travel here, highly recommended!

I arrived in Guilin from Kunming late after 12 am and there is no tourist information counter staff at the airport to tell me where to wait for the hotel's airport transfer driver. Fortunately an airline check-in counter officer helped me call the hotel to find out where to wait for the driver. Please note wait for the driver next to the police kiosk after leaving Gate 6 of the domestic arrival terminal and crossing the lane. It took me 15 minutes to identify the driver because the driver did not show the placard showing the hotel name Shanshuiyunshang Hotel. The driver was impatiently waiting for a foreign tourist. So I identified myself as a Singaporean looking for the transfer driver of the hotel. He replied that I can follow him, who did not declare the hotel's name. Thank God he brought a group of tourists and me to Shanshuiyunshang Hotel to check-in. I also thank God that the driver escorts me to the Airport Flower Field, which is 569 metres away from the hotel, for plane-spotting, and I walk back to the hotel within 10 minutes to check-out of the hotel for my outgoing trip from Guilin after completing my plane-spotting mission. Other than the hotel airport transfer driver, there is the odour of smoke in the room but I have to bear with it until I leave and I cannot access the hotel wifi by scanning the QR code. The hotel restaurant is very small but dragonfruit is served and the breakfast amount is sufficient to fill my hunger. Shanshuiyunshang Hotel is one of several hotels along the road of Liangjiang Town that has accommodation for tourists but this hotel is the only one in Liangjiang Town to be listed on Trip.com. I will stay here again for the purpose of plane-spotting in Liangjiang Town, the famous airport town of Guangxi.

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.

The hotel staff were incredibly warm and attentive. The location is perfect, right within the West Street area, and it's just a 3-minute walk to the Li River, making getting around super convenient. Breakfast is provided and the quality of the food is excellent. They also offer electric scooter rentals, which is great for exploring the surroundings. The room was clean and tidy, and the hygiene was spot on. It offers fantastic value for money, the price is affordable, and overall, I had a very satisfying experience.
