We loved our stay at Apsara Lodge. The staff are incredibly kind, helping to book tickets and tours at really reasonable prices. They pre booked us a driver from Guilin airport which was very smooth. The accomodation  is rustic but comfortable and situated in a beautiful and peaceful spot around 15 mins drive away from Yangshuo town. We found it really easy to get everywhere in the area using Didi taxis and bicycles for just a few Yuan. There are also stunning hiking trails straight from the property and multiple rafting spots along the Yulong River nearby. Unlike other places in the area, we found the area to be less overrun with tourists (that said, we visited in winter). The local food was wonderful and they have just built a pizza oven where you can make your own pizzas too. Free coffee, tea and washing facilities were a great touch. We had the in-room massages which were very reasonably priced. If you're looking for something that feels local and personal in a beautiful part of Yangshuo, we really recommend Apsara.

Could be a bit chilly and sometimes smokey from the fires in the communal areas at times but didn't really bother us. We had the top floor jacuzzi room but it's more of a large bath, so manage expectations there. The view was fantastic though!

We absolutely loved our week at Apsara Lodge. The room (in fact both rooms, as we got moved to a bigger one free of charge halfway through our stay) was (were) lovely. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The food was delicious. We were there in the Chinese holiday week and Apsara was a calm oasis in a very busy area!

I liked everything, the location is spectacular, outside the city center and much more peaceful. The staff is amazing!!! Thanks Maria and team for such a warm stay. They gave me a lot of good recommendations and helped set up the activities everyday. Loved it!

The hotel owns both moondance and apsara lodge, and the car entrance is through the moondance. They should make more explicit on the booking site the address. But everything was great! Try to book the rooms inside the apsara main building, I thought it was much more comfortable than the outside one. The outside seems a lot more rustic.

This is the most beautiful setting for a hotel, overlooking the river and a view of the mountains it is so tranquil! The interiors are lovely and modern, and they offer free afternoon tea every day which was such a lovely touch. The staff were so kind and made us feel very welcome. They helped us to plan our itinerary, transfers and we hired electric scooters from them too. We couldn’t have asked for more, we just wish we had longer! (One thing to note is that the bikes are not free that are mentioned in the description- but they aren’t expensive either)

This hotel was just perfect for our weekend in Yangshuo, out of the busy city and only 15min away by scooter (available from the hotel). Very quiet and beautifully arranged. River view room was very nice, breakfast is just what we needed and the staff was really kind and fulfil all our requests: book the scooter, activity recommendations and bookings. We highly recommend moon hike / the light show / river bamboo rafting.

Nothing, everything was perfect

Very cozy, clean, and in a beautiful location. Also, staff were wonderful and helped us with a very nice itinerary with discounted ticket prices :) Also, chef was good at preparing Italian food😊.

At the time we were there, there was a group shooting ads in the outdoor area. It was noisy and we couldn’t use that area which was very unfortunate. It would be nice if it had more vegetarian food option.

The location and ambience of the lodge is perfect for a weekend getaway. The views are unparalleled and surreal. The lodge staff welcomed us with warmth, friendliness and hospitality. They are professional and we'll informed (and connected) with the local attractions. With their support we were able to attend shows and explore the surroundings. The lodge facilitates excursions such as the traditional light show, renting of scooters, massages, arranging transport and more. The surrounding areas are accessible by scooter and the driving conditions here are safe enough. The lodge is air-conditioned and mostly free of mosquitoes.

This is our 2nd stay at the Apsara plus 1 stay at the neighbouring sister hotel Moondance. It's ideal for hiking, biking, e-biking, rafting, rock climbing, and rafting ........... Check-in was easy, just hand in the passports/ID and they'll bring them back to you when registered, the public area has a cosy fireplace, a small bar and a restaurant area. Tea and coffee are on hand all day, and afternoon snacks are provided as well. The restaurant food is mostly Chinese but tasty and a few other bits such as chicken popcorn and chips for the kids. Breakfast is fine with cereals, toast, a range of hot foods, eggs and noodle soups. The pool is open all year and the brave in winter can take a dip! there is outdoor seating overlooking the river and a rainproof gazebo in wet weather. The rooms are spacious and rustic. the beds are clean and comfortable with aircon for hot and cold as needed. Some rooms are suitable for families singles couples and friends so plenty of choices. Tips - contact the hotel for we chat connections and they can be super helpful and cater for your needs. free bikes are on hand and the hotel can help with a range of activities, many an easy cycle or within an hours walk. hiking the back trails along the rivers and karst is easy and well worth it but download apps to your phone such as MapsMe, Locus Map and A Map have most of the paths marked between them. The nearest train station is Yangshuo 2h30m ish from Guangzhou and 4-5h30m from Wuhan and the airport at Guilin. The hotel can arrange transfers.

We had a fantastic time! The staff was just superb, everyone was very kind and helpful with anything we needed — from making reservations to scheduling transportation. The room was quite spacious, and the room and facilities were nicely decorated and super clean. We enjoyed spending time in the pool with a beautiful view to the river and the mountains. Highly recommend staying here if you are in Yangshuo!

The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. Always on hand to deal with any request or question. Helped arrange scooters and excursions tickets. Even following a power cut, they still served breakfast and made every effort to continue normal operations. Both breakfast and evening meals were great.

Nothing.
