Waterside Boutique Hotel

最佳酒店⛰🍱非常好 The best hotel in which I was all on a decent and beautiful looks and most importantly friendly staff ☺️🤩❤️

This hotel was ok. The service was absolutely amazing by Amy, she speaks great English, welcomed us and was very helpful! The room is well equipped, it was clean, good towels, the bathtub is fun, it does have a view. Breakfast is a Chinese breakfast with noodles, one egg, fruit, corn on the cob, and porridge, we asked for more eggs and they gave them to us. There is ok quality coffee and milk. The building in itself looks like it’s still not finished, like some walls need painting, and then inside it’s not finished yet. The room has blackouts for the morning light in 75% of the windows, but the bathroom only has blinds, so expect to be awake by the sunrise. Also, people smoked inside the lobby, even though it’s indoors with AC, this is normal in China if admins don’t enforce a non-smoking environment. The afternoon tea was full of families with loud children and the acoustics of the building are not great.

This is my second time coming here, and I will absolutely be back. What a beautiful, peaceful, and wonderful hotel. The rooms are so comfortable, really well decorated, and the staff is incredibly kind. I will absolutely be back. Thank you for everything.

We were excited to stay in this hotel in Yangshuo and had paid for an expensive room (503), to enjoy the views of the hills. Unfortunately, the stay was ruined by cold to non-existent service by the majority of the staff. When we arrived, our room was not yet available. No indication was given as to when it would be, we were just told to sit and wait. This time was not used to talk us through local attractions nor even to offer us a drink, we were just pointed in the general direction of a water dispenser. The room eventually was ready 30 minutes late - no apology was given. The room was fine but the photos on Ctrip were very edited. The reality was disappointing. Many scratches on the wall and no soundproofing. We could hear children running up and down the corridor at night, screaming. The food in the restaurant is again, fine but service is very impersonal and shows a lack of training or general care. The sour-faced barman, who is front of house most of the time, personifies this. As did the 15 minute wait for a towel for the pool at reception (logical would be to leave towels at the pool for guests). A request which left the staff looking shell-shocked. Checking-out was again focused on reviews and not care of guests. We asked for late check-out and were told “only if you give a 5-star review”. This highlights a lack of morality and the blackmailing nature of the conversation was unacceptable. No offer to carry our bags and not even a goodbye when we left. One to avoid as there are many nicer hotels in close vicinity.

Amazing hotel, with great staff. Especially Minny - was great and fell in love with her!

Amazing hotel ! Super competent staff ! We had the best stay ever. Special bonus for the hot tub facing the beautiful mountains.

This hotel is amazing, the service is excellent. Mini from the front desk helped me book a car to visit the best sites on Yangshuo and also gave me recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. The breakfast is very nice with noodles and fruits. They offer afternoon tea with some cookies and fruits as well. The best part is the view, amazing view of yangshuo forest and out of the hectic city center. Its only a 10min drive or a 20rmb didi if you want to go to town for food or walking.

Very nice location in middle of the Yangshuo mountain area. Comfortable rooms and style. Pool with nice view, even though it seems not often used by travelers. Afternoon tea and coffee, restaurant for dinner available and breakfast based on needs or with local noodle soup. (Beer is a little expensive compared to others). Next to the hotel you can find bicycle lines or just for a simple walk. Bamboo rafting is about 20min walking away, make sure you are early! It’s more common to use E bikes now, standard bikes are a little bit old because of this, nevertheless one or two Mountainbikes would be great … For foreigners, „Mini“ is a great contact and helps for whatever is needed from check-in to even beyond leave. Make sure you get in contact with her and the travel will be just fun at the „countryside“ of Yangshuo. (If you come by boat, spend one hour in the city and take Didi to the hotel to enjoy the landscape)

The scenery is beautiful, the breakfast is delicious, there is my favorite coffee, and the transportation is convenient.
