Right opposite Two Rivers and Four Lakes, Guilin Rong Lake Aroma Tea House, formerly Jing Guan Ming Lou Museum Hotel, is located in the city centre. It features collections of ancient Chinese antiques, modern art galleries, a Chinese-style courtyard and accommodation with free wired internet access.

The ladies were all wonderful and so very helpful. I couldn’t ask for a better staff. The icing on the cake was that they all spoke English in addition to Chinese. Great find!

    The host is so nice and friendly. He could arrange and do whatever you ask for if possible. He always prepares a delicious breakfast with free Fruit and also provides a gift when I was leaving from this stay. The room is neatly, clean, well design and also has a great mountain view. He did a free upgrade for us when we were checked in. It is recommended for whom like the nature and simple village life style.

    Unique hotel, very comfortable beds, hot showers, fantastic breakfast, beautiful interior design, great location beside river and lake park. We had a great night there listening to all the music and dancing on the edge of the lakes. Wonderful helpful and friendly staff, who very efficiently arranged all our activities and tours for us. We will be back.

    The staff here are really great. Very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located right by the lake so we took advantage of this and walked round the lake a few times. Even in the rain it was lovely. Room very comfortable with a great view over the lake. The hotel is full of art pieces and stylish features. If we went to Guilin again we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

    This is a proper boutique hotel. The owner is warm and friendly and can’t do enough for you. The room lovely and big and the bed super comfy. The scenery outside the hotel is spectacular and the village the hotel sits in is quaint and useful.

    It’s rather cozy place, design of the hotel is very attractive and unusual…. Staff speak more or less good English and react to your inquiries without any delays. They arranged for me the river cruise and transfer from the airport, that was so convenient and price was affordable.

    A boutique hotel, close to the lakes with the sun and moon pagoudes, beautifully designed in an ancient Chinese style. The team is outstanding, eager to assist with everthing: transportation and guiding in Longji, a cruse to Yangshuo etc, with a real warm and personal attention. This was priceless to us since Guilin was our first spot in China after Hong Kong and we really needed a help. Our scores are 10 since we cannot score higher. Best hotel ever!

    The room was perfect with very nice design, attention to details, very comfortable, very clean and spacious. Congratulations to the designer. In a very quiet location, very accessible from town with Didi very easy to get. Nice view on the karst around. Trip organised by the hotel was tailored for me and I had a wonderful time. Very good breakfast made in the kitchen in front of you. Very helpful staff that really did their best even if demands were not really about the hotel. Very good value for money.
