Romantic Hotels in Guangxi, China

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. I especially appreciated the attention to detail and the peaceful atmosphere, which made my stay relaxing and enjoyable. The location was also perfect—close to major attractions and convenient for exploring the city. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great place to stay, and I look forward to returning in the future.

Staying at Liangsu Hotel was one of the most magical parts of our journey through China. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking design, the serene natural surroundings, and the peaceful ambiance that made it feel like a slice of paradise. But what truly made our stay unforgettable were two incredible team members: Lynn and Rong. Lynn greeted us with the warmest smile and went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. Every recommendation she gave — from bike trails to hidden cafes — was spot on and made our experience even richer. Rong was equally amazing — thoughtful, kind, and always ready to help with the sweetest energy. You could feel they both genuinely cared. Liangsu isn’t just a hotel — it’s an experience. It’s the kind of place you never want to leave, and these two beautiful souls are a big reason why. We’re so grateful and already dreaming of coming back.

It was a pleasant stay. Jane the personal butler did manage to fulfil the requests and created some nice surprises. The overall design and layout was satisfactory. A lot of recreational activities provided and planned for. As the compound was huge it never felt busy while you know there were many people behind the operations. If you ask me if the price was worth it, then I would take a second look, possibly at the price point, there are much better hotels in China but at Chongzuo, they do have a slight monopoly as there are not many hotels in the area for comparison unlike Guilin or Yangshuo (which has similar views and much cheaper price point).

Shanshui Xianju is located in the Haokun Lake Scenic Area. The hotel has a superior geographical location. You can go to Fisherman's Wharf (cruise boat dock) from the lakeside plank road and the main traffic road in front of the hotel. You can also walk along the village road behind the hotel for about 15-20 minutes to reach the mountain plank road and lake plank road to enjoy the beautiful lake and mountain scenery. During the trip, I also observed the B&Bs along the lake. I feel that Shanshui Xianju should be the best B&B in terms of style, facilities, hygiene, food, etc. The tea served in the hotel rooms is very good. Of course, quality and price are directly proportional, and the room rates at Shanshui Xianju should be relatively high. If I have the chance to go there again, I will choose ”Shanshui Xianju”.

The most friendly, most responsive, and most accommodating and helpful crew I ever encountered. When u needed a towel- they came within minutes without any reminder. When u needed help with booking a cab, they will book foe you and will personally bring you to the pick-up point (because it is not directly outside the hotel). I left my bag at the hotel after check-out. Didn't realised until I reached the station. They managed to help make arrangement and the bag reached me in time for me to board the train. The whole thing all settled within a very short span of time. They are super empathetic and they make yoi feel that they really put the customers at their priorities. It is a super enjoyable stay in Guilin-people are ALL super friendly in general. Will miss Guilin.

Our stay at Xitang Riverview Hotel in Yangshuo was truly unforgettable. The view from our balcony room was nothing short of spectacular — two large windows and a small outdoor table offered a perfect vantage point over the river and the iconic karst mountains. The peaceful scenery changed throughout the day, and waking up to horses bathing in the river, cormorants drying their wings in the sun, hot air balloons floating over the peaks, and bamboo rafts gliding by was magical. The room also featured a lovely little tea corner, adding a cozy and authentic touch to the stay. One of the highlights was the complimentary afternoon tea served daily on the rooftop, complete with fresh fruit and sweet treats — a relaxing ritual with a breathtaking view. After exploring the area, taking a dip in the panoramic pool was the perfect way to unwind. Breakfast was excellent, with a wide selection and fresh options. Overall, the Xitang Riverview Hotel offers a serene and scenic experience that made our time in Yangshuo truly special.

We loved this hotel! The service is excellent, the staff team is trying to make your stay comfortable. You won’t miss anything here. They even have a area where the kids can play and feed with rabbits. The room in which we stayed is spacious, clean and nice decorated. The breakfast is good, there are many choices. Hotel is at walking distance from the elephant hill trunk and two rivers and four lakes. Reed flute cave is approx. 15 min drive from hotel. Will come back here again!

Room was very clean, and toilet and shower were separate. Smoking was apparently permitted in rooms despite my request for a non-smoking room, but there was no smoke smell in the room and it was well ventilated with the attached balcony which faced the river and had pretty views. I had issues with the electricity tripping, but the front desk resolved this very quickly by giving me a card specifically for the power outlet in my room. The hotel had washers and dryers for clothes free to use for all guests and even an area with hangers and poles to air dry your laundry, but the time I was there, there were many insects at night (the hotel did put a warning sign at the door). The laundry also apparently closes at 11pm but I did not notice this until I was done with my laundry at 1am. The caretaker who did the evening rounds also did not chase me away and let me use the area until I completed my laundry. The hotel was located near the Longtoushan pier where the Li River Cruises end and disembark. It’s supposedly a 3-5-min walk from the pier to the hotel, but the area tends to be very crowded as all the cruises tend to arrive together (~1.30-2pm). The stretch of pavement from the pier to the street is also very bumpy and not luggage-friendly, but you may contact the hotel to fetch you with a buggy but they tend to be too busy to accommodate at that time too. Apart from this timing, the street is generally very quiet. If walking at night, i would recommend bringing a torch light as the street is very dark. It’s also a 10-15min walk away from Xijie (west street) where there are many food options and souvenirs. The hotel has an attached cafe and restaurant too if you just want to chill in the afternoon. It’s a little pricey for this area but overall a good and comfortable stay! The rooftop also has very pretty views of the mountains and the river, and a great place for some quiet time in the morning!

Very nice hotel with a modern but minimalist style. Good location with a wonderful view on the mountains, close to the river and one of the main roads. Service was excellent and the employees were considerate and nice, and tended to any needs we had. Breakfast has not a lot of choices, but the quality and simplicity makes up for it. The photo shooting they offer was an interesting activity. The photographer and the team were patient and took the time to make this an enjoyable and fun experience. The pictures came out very well.

It was great. I had dinner at the hotel. The spring chicken was delicious. The service was great. The front desk ladies were very sweet. The hotel environment was very clean. I could see the sunrise over the terraced fields from my bed. It was also very close to the observation deck. I had a lot of fun. The hotel facilities were complete. The driver who helped with the pick-up was very skilled! The experience was great. I hope to stay here again in another season.
