Hotels With spa in Guangxi, China

Tucked away right by the Yulong River in the Shili Gallery, this place is surrounded by stunning karst peaks. It’s so peaceful and absolutely breathtaking. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the room make every single photo look amazing. Just open the curtains and you're greeted by lush green mountains—you can even take in the mountain views right from your bed or while soaking in the bathtub. So healing! 🛁 There's a big lawn and rice paddies outside the courtyard. Sitting by the little wooden cabin and feeling the breeze from the countryside is just the best. There's also a rooftop café; sitting on the outdoor tatami and just zoning out doesn't feel like wasting time at all. It’s not far from the Yulong River bamboo rafting dock, and it's super convenient for visiting Gongnong Bridge and the Big Banyan Tree. Plus, it's located right in the prime scenic section of the Shili Gallery. The hotel service is warm and attentive. Breakfast features local flavors, parking is free, and there’s a kids' club for families traveling with little ones 🎠. No need to rush any itineraries here—wake up to the morning mist, lounge by the pool in the afternoon, and just wait for a tangerine sunset. This is the ultimate slow-paced life you come to Yangshuo for 🌄.

We spent 4 wonderful nights here, and the kindness and attentiveness of the staff was the highlight of our whole trip. We were greeted with a welcome drink, and check in was warm and relaxed. They surprised us with an upgrade to a room with a private balcony overlooking the river, and someone walked us there personally. The room was spotless, and everything in the minibar was complimentary and restocked daily, a small touch that meant a lot. The pool is compact, but we always had it to ourselves, with a stunning view to match. Breakfast was delicious, and eating in the outdoor area made it even better. There is also a spa with very fair prices, which we sadly ran out of time to try. The location is a real plus. Guilin's lively night streets are about a 15 minute walk away, close enough to enjoy but far enough to sleep peacefully. Just across from the hotel, a small local restaurant sells cheap cold beer, perfect for drinking on the balcony. The building shows a little age, but the service and location more than make up for it. Easily 5 stars. At checkout, the team surprised us with a lovely tea box as a farewell gift, a perfect final example of their thoughtfulness. If we return to Guilin, SYYF is our first choice, and we'll look for this brand on future trips around China. Thank you for everything!

Finally, I got to stay in my dream river-view room in Yangshuo! 🏨 This 270° river-view room with a balcony bathtub is picture-perfect; every shot looks like a masterpiece, offering exclusive romantic views of the Li River. The location is a huge plus, making getting around super easy! It's a 5-minute walk to Guanlian Pier and just 10 minutes to Yangshuo West Street. It's also convenient to rent electric scooters nearby, and for those driving, there's a free parking lot and charging stations. The massive balcony directly faces the Li River, offering panoramic views of the mountains and water, creating an instant luxurious ambiance. The hotel boasts a popular infinity pool and a 'Sky Mirror' that's great for photos, plus a fully equipped gym and a children's play area, making it suitable for both couples and families. The breakfast and dinner experience was excellent. There's a rich selection of both Chinese and Western breakfast options, and upon check-in, we received a complimentary exquisite double welcome afternoon tea, which was both beautiful and delicious. 📍 Shixi Tianyue Riverview Hotel (Yangshuo West Street Li River Branch)

I was very satisfied with the architecture and tranquility of The Sugar House. It's a shame that it was too hot during my recent visit, so I couldn't spend much time exploring outdoors. The architecture and scenery here are so skillfully integrated that there's no spot you wouldn't want to stop and admire. Additionally, this hotel offers Black Diamond privileges, which included vouchers and some small gifts – a delightful surprise for my first experience. The room was very clean and tidy, with comfortable bedding and excellent blackout curtains, allowing for a very peaceful sleep. The outdoor view was also beautiful; lounging or working on the balcony was quite relaxing. The hotel offers many activities, so even if you don't leave the hotel during the National Day holiday, there's plenty to participate in. Unfortunately, due to my itinerary, I only got to experience the basket swing activity once. Dinner at the restaurant was slightly more expensive than outside, but the taste was decent. Western cuisine seemed to be a slightly better choice than Chinese. Breakfast had limited options, a combination of à la carte and buffet, and the taste was just okay, not particularly delicious. You can ask for dry mix rice noodles, as the default comes with soup, but I found the dry mix to be tastier. I highly recommend the travel photography session. The photographer here previously worked for Earl Travel Photography, so their skills are excellent. The shooting process was very relaxed, and I was happy with the finished photos. Some suggestions for improvement: the service staff seemed less professional. The restaurant staff stuttered when asked about dishes and mostly had expressionless faces. Some of them were interns. Also, the door leading to the balcony from the restaurant had no resistance and slammed shut if you let go, which was quite disruptive during meals. Furthermore, the body lotion in the toiletries was incredibly difficult to squeeze out; it took forever to get any out to use as a body lotion. I might come back again when it's cooler. Overall, it was a good experience, and this was the best hotel experience I had in Yangshuo this time.

My honest review after a 4-night stay: it completely shattered the negative stereotypes online! Before coming, I saw some online reviews mentioning old facilities and a lack of help with luggage, which made me a bit hesitant. However, after actually staying for 4 days, the overall experience was truly fantastic. First of all, while the facilities are a bit dated, they are well-maintained. The room comes with a bathtub, which was wonderful for soaking. The best part is the incredible high-altitude view; the scenery outside the window is stunning. If I could stay in a 270-degree panoramic room next time, enjoying the view would be even more amazing! I have to give a special shoutout to the breakfast—it has a great variety. If you go early, grab a table by the window just in time to watch the sunrise. Having breakfast accompanied by the breathtaking high-rise view felt truly magical and therapeutic. The service was also nothing like what the internet claims. Over the past few days, as I was coming and going with my luggage, staff members always proactively offered to help every single time. There was a particularly heartwarming little incident: once, a staff member was pushing a luggage cart for someone else and didn't notice me getting ready to get in a car. The moment I went to open the car door myself, he immediately ran over to help with my luggage and apologized, explaining he was busy with the luggage cart and hadn't seen me. Also, whenever the delivery robots were too busy for food deliveries, staff members would bring the orders straight to the room. I almost felt a bit embarrassed ordering so much 🥹 Plus, whenever I needed help with something during my stay, the staff were super enthusiastic and helpful! The service is genuinely top-notch. All in all, I am extremely satisfied with this stay!

The hotel is fully equipped with comprehensive facilities, and the rooms are clean and tidy. The bathroom features a wet-and-dry separation design. The buffet offers a wide variety of choices, and there is a nice outdoor area by the restaurant for relaxing and enjoying the view. Free parking spaces are available downstairs, and popular attractions like the Sun and Moon Pagodas and Elephant Trunk Hill are within walking distance.

We brought our kids to Nanning for a trip and chose the Crowne Plaza Nanning City Center. Overall, the family travel experience was fantastic. The location is very convenient, and taking a taxi anywhere was close by. The room was spacious enough, and the bedding was comfortable, so we felt at ease letting our little ones roll around on the bed. We had noted our family needs in advance, and the arrangements upon arrival were very thoughtful. Allen was gentle and very friendly towards the children, even proactively giving them a small toy. The hotel is clean and quiet, ensuring a great night's sleep. When traveling with kids, a good night's sleep is so important! Great value for money. We will definitely consider staying here again next time we bring the kids to Nanning!

Extremely satisfied with my stay! The staff were incredibly helpful, and the breakfast, in particular, offered a fantastic variety. The team provided thorough and detailed introductions to the hotel facilities and local attractions. Because of some extra planning needed for our trip, they even went out of their way to recommend the best places to go and the most convenient ways to get around. The overall check-in experience exceeded my expectations. There is a gorgeous rooftop garden upstairs; with its lush, jungle-like landscaping, it’s a wonderful and relaxing spot. At night, you can enjoy a stunning view of the Li River right across the way.

I accidentally booked the wrong room type, but Manager Zhang Weiwei kindly helped me upgrade to a family room for free. It was very spacious, and the service was comfortable as always. The travel photography package included was also fantastic, and the garden I was looking forward to was beautifully maintained. Plus, there were many free-roaming animals which the kids loved. Wan Xiaofeng, who manages the garden, even remembered my two children. They fed the ornamental fish, and upon leaving, she gave them peacock feathers—the kids look forward to coming here every year, making it our must-visit annual tradition.

Cleanliness: Overall quite good; Facilities: The room only has tatami mats, no chairs; Location: Within walking distance of Yangshuo West Street, making dining and shopping very convenient; Service: The staff were quite enthusiastic, proactively upgraded our room type, and gave us a 10% discount voucher for local specialty restaurants. Breakfast is a set menu, which is enough to fill you up.
