Romantic Hotels in Yangshuo

Kicking off our spring break, we headed south through Guilin, Yangshuo, Nanning, and Beihai. Yangshuo Wangjianglou Inn was by far the most comfortable and convenient place we stayed. The inn's design and layout exceeded my expectations; the quality was truly impressive. Given the limitations of the building itself, they ingeniously installed a luggage elevator, which was incredibly thoughtful for both guests and staff – big thumbs up! Yangshuo county is quite small, so there's really no need to stay directly in the scenic area (it's inconvenient, overpriced, and you'd need taxis for meals and transportation, adding to costs). Staying in the West Street commercial district was a very smart decision. We stayed and ate at Wangjianglou (for those who know, their restaurant is a super popular, must-try spot in Yangshuo with long queues!). As a guest, you don't have to wait; the front desk concierge helps with reservations directly, and you even get a 10% discount on meals, which is a fantastic deal. I'm already planning to bring my family back after May Day and will definitely be staying at Wangjianglou again!

I absolutely loved Valley House for its location, cleanliness, exquisite taste, and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The rooms are spacious, elegantly decorated, and spotlessly clean. The views are unbeatable: the Li River is just a few meters away, and the famous mountains depicted on the 20 yuan banknote are right in front of the hotel. You just have to cross the street to rent a scooter. If you walk about 15 meters further down towards the Li River, you can book a bamboo boat ride, join a fisherman to observe the ancient practice of cormorant fishing, or simply stroll and relax along the bank. Every day, they offer a complimentary assortment of fresh fruit, and at the dining area counter, a variety of homemade beverages, such as homemade lemonade, freshly ground coffee, or date and ginger tea, are available 24/7. They also prepare delicious dishes upon request. The menu is quite extensive and includes vegetarian options, but meals need to be reserved before 9:30 PM the day before. The staff is exceptionally attentive, kind, and highly empathetic, something I had genuinely started to miss during this nearly month-long trip. Suffice it to say that every day, after feasting on their delicious dinners, they would offer me a small bowl of red bean paste soup, just in case I was still hungry. And this is just one example among many of the warm human touch provided by the staff at this hotel. Besides five stars, they deserve a five-heart rating. A real gem and, without a doubt, the best accommodation of this entire trip. I will never forget you. 🥰

Our stay here was truly one of the highlights of our Yangshuo trip. The hotel is exceptionally family-friendly, with plenty of activities that kept both the kids and adults entertained throughout our stay. It strikes a wonderful balance between relaxation and fun, making it a perfect destination for families. A special mention goes to the photography service, which exceeded all our expectations. The photographers were professional, patient, and wonderful with children, capturing so many beautiful and natural moments that we will treasure for years to come. The photos turned out absolutely stunning and became one of the most memorable parts of our stay. The warm hospitality, beautiful surroundings, and thoughtful experiences made our vacation even more special. We would happily recommend this hotel to any family visiting Yangshuo and would love to return again in the future.

Our stay at Fadai was simply wonderful and one of the most memorable experiences of our trip to China. The hotel is located in one of the most beautiful settings for photography, surrounded by stunning mountains and a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are extremely spacious and feature a huge bathtub facing the views, allowing you to relax while enjoying the magnificent scenery. It was truly unforgettable. What made our stay even more special was the incredible staff. Everyone was exceptionally kind and always willing to help. They even went out of their way at 10:00 p.m. to find vegetarian food for us, making sure we had dinner despite the late hour. The staff also helped us organize our visit to the local show and made sure we arrived on time. In my opinion, it was the best show I have ever seen in my life. One of the most unique experiences offered by the hotel is the traditional Chinese photo session. The hotel provides three complimentary photos and has several beautiful settings within the property where guests can dress as women from ancient China. The staff help with the traditional costumes, makeup, and poses to ensure the photos turn out beautifully. The results are absolutely stunning. The mountain scenery creates an unforgettable backdrop and leaves you with incredible memories. Our experience at Fadai was truly exceptional, and we recommend this hotel 100%. The location is breathtaking, the atmosphere is peaceful, and the staff are genuinely warm and caring. Thank you to the entire Fadai team for making our stay so special. 我们在 Fadai 的入住体验非常美好，也是我们中国之旅中最难忘的经历之一。 酒店坐落在风景绝美的山间，周围群山环绕，环境安静祥和，非常适合拍照。客房十分宽敞，还配有面向山景的大浴缸，让人在欣赏美景的同时彻底放松，这种体验令人难忘。 最让我们感动的是酒店员工的热情和贴心。无论我们需要什么帮助，他们总是尽力协助。晚上十点钟，他们甚至特意帮我们寻找并准备素食晚餐，让我们深受感动。 酒店工作人员还帮助我们安排观看当地演出，并确保我们准时到达。在我看来，这是我一生中看过最精彩的演出。 酒店最特别的体验之一是传统汉服摄影。酒店免费赠送三张照片，并设有多个精美的拍摄场景。客人可以穿上传统古装，进行化妆和造型，工作人员还会指导拍照姿势，使每张照片都十分漂亮。最终的照片效果令人惊艳，而壮丽的山景更让这些照片成为珍贵而难忘的回忆。 我们在 Fadai 的经历非常特别，真心推荐这家酒店。这里风景优美、环境宁静，工作人员友善而热情。 感谢 Fadai 全体员工为我们带来如此难忘的住宿体验！

We booked the 180° view twin room yesterday, which is 80 square meters. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by large floor-to-ceiling windows and a spacious balcony showcasing the most beautiful stretch of the Yulong River's Ten-Mile Gallery. It felt like a grand landscape painting right before our eyes – truly breathtaking! All the room amenities were thoughtful and complete, and they even provided two pairs of high-quality cotton and linen slippers, which I loved. The complimentary travel photoshoot was also fantastic; we were very happy with the photos. We'll definitely visit again if we have the chance, or recommend it to family and friends.

Stayed at 栖心·九隐的院子(阳朔十里画廊遇龙河店) and honestly, the experience was something special. The location is excellent, right beside major attractions, making it very convenient to get around Yangshuo without wasting time on transport. Everything feels within reach. One thing that stood out is their 24/7 home-like service. You can contact them anytime, and they are always responsive and helpful, which makes the stay very comfortable. They also offer 24/7 e-motor rental, which is a must in Yangshuo since it’s part of the local travel culture. Just a small tip — remember to take the umbrella attachment for the bike, the sun can be really intense. What truly makes this place different is the personalised, family-like service. The staff actually pay attention to your habits and travel style, and recommend activities that genuinely suit you instead of pushing touristy options. For example, one day we got caught in the rain while riding back. The staff had actually messaged us earlier to take shelter, but we missed it and ended up drenched. When we returned, they immediately suggested we take a hot shower and even prepared a pot of hot ginger tea with red dates, personally delivering it to our room. It was such a warm and thoughtful gesture. This is not a typical five- or six-star luxury hotel, but that’s not the point. The atmosphere is unique — cosy, warm, and genuinely homely. It feels less like staying at a hotel and more like being taken care of by people who actually care. Highly recommended if you value comfort, warmth, and a more personal travel experience.

There's nothing much around the area except for a cafe/restaurant beside the hotel. I had specially booked the room with mountain view thinking that I can really get mountain view from the window but I was only able to see trees from the windows. Soundproofing isn't too good as I was able to hear people shouting in their rooms and honking noise from the road. Spacious room though.

It is the second time I stay in this hotel and I love it very much. I returned this time to bring my mother here! The hotel's location is great, by the river and close to nature. There are the waterlily ponds around the hotel and you can hear the delightful little frogs croaking at night. The staff are very friendly and helpful with all requests, and the hotel's interior is clean and beautifully designed. The pool is also very pleasant, as are the many activities offered here, and you can rent a scooter easily for convenient transport around.ation is great, by the river and close to nature.

The breakfast offers tasty food, as does the restaurant - which boasts a great vegetarian selection as well.

The room was clean and comfortable, the overall environment was elegant, and the location was excellent. Right outside the door were West Street Pedestrian Street and the Xiao Lijiang River. The view from the hotel terrace was beautiful. You could rent a scooter and explore for a whole day. Plus, the service was warm and attentive. I was very satisfied with my stay.

The room was spacious, comfortable, clean, and tidy, and the breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options. It's directly across from Yuanbao Mountain, and only a 5-minute walk to the bamboo raft boarding point. They have free parking, and the staff were all very warm and attentive.
