Set on the banks of Dragon River, Yangshuo Tea Cozy is surrounded by the breathtaking Karst peaks and large expanses of paddy fields. A relaxing retreat away from the city, the hotel is a 10-minute drive from the historic Yangshuo West Street. Rustic wood walls, tastefully Chinese-style decoration and classic works of art add to the charm of this property.

The food at the hotel a la carte, as well as the breakfast is really good. The pool is really nice and the views are breath taking

Steps from Yulong River, Yangshuo Secret Garden is located in the stunning Yangshuo countryside. The hotel consists of Qing Dynasty buildings that have been beautifully restored to preserve the historic character. All the rooms feature local-inspired décor and traditional furnishing. Free Wi-Fi is provided.

Fantastic hotel with a lots of historical character and very friendly staff. The owner is lovely and we enjoyed listening to the stories of how the hotel was ideated and built. So much thought has been put in every detail and they really managed to bring the old village houses and courtyards back to life :) Food was delicious and well priced. Location is perfect - very calm and relaxing, yet waking distance to the river and a number of coffee shops/small restaurants. Thank you for a lovely stay - we will be back for sure!

River View Hotel provides affordable rooms along the beautiful Li River, a 2-minute walk from the famous West Street in Yangshuo. It boasts spectacular views and a variety of activities.

Enjoying a prime location, facing the Li River, The River View Hotel’s tour desk also helps guests organise excursions to scenic spots in Yangshuo. It is 150 metres from West Street and 800 metres from Yangshuo Bus Station. Bicycle rental facilities are available on site.

This is such a great little hotel. The location is perfect, just 10 minutes walk from the pier where the boat cruises from Guilin dock, just 1 block from West Street. Our double room (305) had great views of karsts and the Li River. (See photo) The staff were friendly and helpful, with good English. To top it all, it has a bar and an excellent and very popular restaurant serving top notch but inexpensive Chinese food. So glad we stayed here!

    We had a wonderful stay at the Yangshuo Ancient Garden Boutique hotel, I will definitively recommend this hotel if you want to discover this beautiful area. The hotel is very nice, well located in a quiet area but not far from the city. It is nicely decorated and the rooms are beautiful. Sophia took very good care of us, she organised all the visits and activities for our family, everything was smooth and perfect for the family. Thank you again to Sophia and the team for the great holiday!

    Staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is delicious and comes in big portion. I had to ask to cut down in half as I don’t want to waste food. Location is close to dragon river. Many eateries nearby. View from the superior queen room is stunning. Spacious and clean bathroom.
