Very good chinese style breakfast. The staff was very kind and helped us with every question we had throughout our stay. The hotel own e-shuttel was always available to take us to the ferry point. We also had dinner at the hotel, which was delicious. Communication with the staff was done via WeChat, because of the inbuilt translation function. It worked really well. The room was huge and the bed very comfy. There was also a comfy sofa with tea pottery and black tea to do your own tea ceremony. The TV came with a chinese on-demand app. There were lot of English movies (a good mix of Netflix, Prime and Disney+) available, that was great. We only had to translate the menu on our own, but that was not a big issue. We could easily hike up to the sightseeing platform at Xiangong Hill, took us only 1h to get there, easy hike. To reach the city it is necessary to cross the river with a ferry, which runs every few minutes during daytime. Costs 5 yuan per person per direction. We arrived at Guilin by plane, the hotel organised us a fixed rate pick up and it worked very smooth! The highspeed trainstation is roughly 30 min away, to get there from the hotel, we had to take the e-shuttle, then the ferry and then a taxi. Everything was prearranged by the hotel and we were also helped with our luggage till we were at the taxi! Perfect support, no need to worry about missing the train.

It was a pitty that the pool and the hot tube were not ready to be used.

A very modern hotel with an interior design reminiscent of traditional Chinese architecture, but with all the possible comforts. The garden terrace surrounded by mountains makes you feel in nature, while you eat the fantastic breakfast they prepare. It's like a dream. The staff were simply lovely, they helped us with everything. The area was also incredible, very close to the mountains we wanted to go to. And especially next to the Daimon mountain, which, without being the most famous, was our favorite, for its views and because of the few people who go there. We will return one day!!!

I can't say anything. We miss this place.

This place is an absolute gem. Beautiful hotel and rooms located in picturesque (well that's an understatement) XingPing which is much smaller and much nicer than Yangshuo. The hotel is reasonably isolated in a quiet spot across the river from XingPing village with amazing views. The staff will pick up and drop off whenever you need with their golf carts (5 minute trip) to the ferry to XingPing which crosses all day, ferry is only 5 yuan each. If you are later at night they will arrange the ferry for you. They can book things you need, for example the Impression Liu Sanjio show and you can get to Yangshuo from XingPing village with Didi rides of about half an hour (50-60 yuan). Being in XingPing isn't as convenient as Yangshuo in terms of day-trips etc in the Guilin area as most leave from there or Guilin city, but it is a fabulous spot whereas Yangshuo is big and busy and not that pretty. The hosts were delightful and extremely attentive, they can take you on walking tours or recommend things to do. We walked up Damion mountain which was great, but you need reasonable fitness for this it's very steep but amazing views of the region. Also take a bamboo raft which they will organise for you, find a group of four if you can so cheaper. Owner Joan (I may have the name wrong) was lovely and converses a bit in English, and is genuinely interested in her guests and making their time in XingPing special. Other staff were also friendly and helpful. The breakfast is fabulous and located on the top floor with beautiful views of the countryside, a magical setting for a small hotel. Joan made us a filter coffee each morning. They also offer lunch and dinner food which is very nice as well or you can head over to the old town in XingPing for lots of options. Note though that XingPing is not a late night town, it's very quiet after 9 or 10 pm.

ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING! I would give it 11/10 if I could! We enjoyed our stay so much we barely left the resort, you're already staying at one of the key scenery spots anyway. The staff were all so nice and helpful. Don't be put off by the river crossing etc. The location is actually excellent because it's close to the train station AND the key "picture spots". Anywhere is pretty near Yangshuo but people usually come to Xingping from Yangshuo anyway, however Xingping is much quieter so it's both pretty and relaxing!

I didn't like that I had to leave...

An oasis set in the most picturesque peninsula - beyond expectations and of high quality build and design. The owner Mrs Zhou was the architect and designer. She also is an avid geologist and will take you on a knowledgeable hike. She and the staff did their utmost to ensure our comfort and took great care of us. You can feel that they worry about all the details, and anything they don’t get right, they will do their best to fix.

Nothing to fault really, but just to note that having no door to the bathroom is one of those modern flow design ideas that just doesn’t work for us. Food was great if you like very local Chinese food but there wasn’t a huge selection, although it was easy enough to eat at the Rosewood Cafe in Xingping old town. Note also that it takes about 15 mins to get to the pier and you have to take a ¥5 boat ride (5mins) across the river to get to the peninsula that the property is on. The hotel picks up at the other side and it’s another 5 mins drive.

Million dollar view on the property! Close to Xianggong Mountain that we went for the sunrise and the panoramic view of the Li River (you pay for the ride). The owner is very knowledgeable about her profession (geologist) and the staff are very friendly and helpful. They provide free pickup and drop off at the ferry (ferry is 5 RMB each way) and at the railway station as well. If you want to take a break after a busy trip and enjoy the comfort in a very nice surroundings, this is the place! The property itself is a little museum.

Beautiful hotel surrounded by beautiful mountain and river scenery (located at most scenic stretch of Li River). Rooms with Classical Chinese architecture and modern high tech facilities (love the high end Japanese style toilets). Sincere and personal service, all the staff and even the boss are special efforts to chat with guests personally. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner on the few days we stayed at the hotel. Delicious Chinese food with fresh produce from local farms. Staff woke up earlier to prepare breakfast buffet for us on the last morning. Enjoyed my stay immensely and hope to visit again. Best hotel during my China trip!

A little far from Yangshuo. Takes an hour to travel between Yangshuo for Liu San Jie show to hotel, a bit dangerous to drive on hilly roads in the dark with hardly any street lamps ( luckily we had a very good driver).

Beautiful location close to Xing Ping surrounded by mountains. Very helpful and kind staff who helped us with local walking routes, recommendations and shuttle rides to the ferry. Clean and comfortable room. Decent breakfast selection and delicious rice noodles on demand!

The food options in the evening were a little bit limited and the quality had some room for improvement - especially when there are not many other restaurant options nearby (XingPing town is on the other side of the river).

A marvellous spot with a great view! The room was super comfortable and spotlessly clean. The rooftop terrace offers splendid views of the mountains. The hotel offers free transfer with the electric car to the ferry to Xingpning. And Jong, the owner, gave a tour of the hotel, because there are some amazing pieces of art hidden there. Furthermore the hotel offers a lot of activities from trecking and rafting to fishing. Do not miss this spot!

Nothing, everything was great! However, there is no continental breakfast, you better like Chinese food.

Food was excellent. We had breakfast (Chinese style), lunch and dinner on the top floor with beautiful scenery. Meals were delicious with fresh and tasty ingredients from local farms. Excellent service from the young staff who woke up early to prepare breakfast buffet for us on the last morning. Very sincere and personal service from all staff. Even the boss made special efforts to chat to all guests, showed us her precious stones collections and treasured paintings. Beautiful rooms with Japanese style toilets. Would have loved to stay longer at this hotel.

Location was a bit far, need to travel 1 hour to Yangshuo over hilly roads and some stretches no street lamps at night.
