九天的桂林之旅結束了，雖然我們從頭至尾趕上了桂林史上同期最冷的幾天，感受到南方的濕冷，但是臨走時心裏卻暖暖的。 讓我感到温暖的是桂林的兩家酒店，美豪酒店和依山雲水酒店，兩家酒店服務周到，有着南方人的細膩。昨天是冬至，美豪酒店特意送來了湯圓，裏面放了芋圓，紅棗枸杞，甜甜的香香的，服務員基本上都是當地的歲數很大的婦女，待人友善和氣，每天早晨當我們來到餐廳時，她們都會非常熱情親切的和你打招呼，然後做上一碗香氣撲鼻絲滑筋斗的桂林米粉，我們在這裏每天早晨都是吃米粉，就沒有感到膩煩！依山雲水酒店的房間實在是太棒啦！大套間，落地玻璃窗，躺在床上就能看到日出。出門就是遇龍河，清晨，旁邊的村民紛紛來到河邊洗衣服，一副祥和美好的畫面！ 最後我要感謝桂林的旅遊服務人員，來之前聽説桂林旅遊很黑很宰客，所以處處報以不信任的態度。但是通過接觸，我想我多慮了。 最先接觸到的是在美豪酒店駐店的蔡夢，（*******************）她很細心，告訴我們通過小拉出行打車便宜，還為我們設計了路線，告訴我們怎樣買票能夠省錢。最要感謝的是她給我們找了一個好司機鄧師傅（***********）。師傅頭一天就和我們聯繫，很體貼的告訴我們怎麼玩比較好。第二天師傅帶着我們一站一站的玩，還總是囑咐我們不要着急，慢慢玩。到了遇龍河騎行步道，因為我們不會騎挎斗車，司機師傅還全程帶着我們騎了一路。最後到了桂林都快八點了，弄得我們很不好意思。在鄧師傅的陪伴下，我們度過了特別愉快的一天。 看了看天氣，從後天開始桂林又開始升温了，20℃，大家可以過來住幾天。桂林山水甲天下，山美水美人也美！

Very convenient location,Room is clean, staffs are polite and friendly some staff need more helpful. overall is a very good hotel to stay.

Room: 1017 (king bed & bunk bed); duration of stay: 4 nights. Family of 4 (including 6 & 11y.o. boys) Absolutely wonderful surprise to walk into this room and see how spacious it was along with many fun features which included kids’ bunk bed and slide down one side, playhouse tent, play area with small kids table and chairs and small rocking horse. A large kids play area (open 10am – 10pm) on the same floor (level 10) along with a very basic gym i.e. 1 treadmill, a couple of indoor bikes. Most guests on level 10 kept our doors open and kids could freely roam between their hotel room and play area. There is no safe in the room although the hotel was safe and secure (cameras on each floor). Our valuables were locked in our suitcase when not in the room. A nice touch of earplugs by our bedside (although we didn’t need them) and heated/electric toilet. Both kids and adults enjoyed the room and hotel. The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful. Limited English and we communicated via translate app and my 11y.o. son who speaks intermediate Chinese. Use of sunscreen and other items available for free from reception counter. The hotel is very clean. Free laundry (front loading machines and a hanging rack heated dryer) including laundry powder (located on level 8). The pool was nice however given we visited late October, a bit on the cool side with the changing season. The breakfast spread was very good with a mixture of fruit, bread, dim sum, eggs (boiled, fried, scrambled), bacon, Chinese breakfast, tea, coffee, etc. 3 items, including noodles, on the breakfast menu to obtain freshly cooked. We also ate at the restaurant for dinner twice and both meals were fantastic (we recommend the T-bone steak!). Ordering is via scanning a QR code. Limited alcoholic spirits on the dinner menu. We booked a boat tour via the hotel tour desk using the translator app. The service was good and easy. We opted to get a taxi to the boat (rather than the group van which left an hour earlier and cost RMB10pp) however upon arriving to the boat ticket office outside the boats they tried to redirect us to a different location. We communicated with the hotel tour desk via WeChat which was quick and very helpful as they sent photos of the desk we needed to be at (which was a table next door to the ticket office). The process was smooth and easy. The use of the spa is 50% off for hotel guests and from memory it opens at 3pm. Suggest to book ahead as the spa does book out quickly. The location is good; a walk away from Guilin Pagoda Hill, Elephant hill (10 min walk), Starbucks on the opposite side of the road less than 10 minute walk away, 2 KFC’s, food, taxi stand to the left of the hotel, night market, shopping, etc. Great features of this hotel: • Fun hotel and fantastic for kids • Very clean and safe • Good location • Good breakfast spread, lunch/dinner options • Taxi stand less than 1 minute walk For awareness: • SYYF has 2 locations. Taxi’s kept dropping us back at the other location. Therefore take the address in Chinese and make sure the taxi drivers read the address (not just look at the logo)

On our way to Yangshuo, my friends and I decided to stay at the Manhattan hotel. The hotel location was very convenient and a lovely distance to other sightseeing things. The check-in was not as smooth as we would have liked as the staff spoke little English. All 3 bedrooms we booked were ok, but the rooms were quite stuffy and a bit unpleasant in smell. The breakfast was average; however, they are other food options around and near the hotel. Overall, the hotel is okay for a one-night stay.

I was very pleasantly surprised. The stay was so comfortable. There was a small courtyard and a cafe. Breakfast was American-style sandwiches. I also had my obedient Corgi to accompany me for breakfast. I was so happy! The hotel is near the water and has a very good environment. It is quiet in the bustle. There is a delicious rice noodle shop at the door. It is also close to the scenic spots. I will definitely stay here next time I come to Guilin!

The hotel is well decorated, fresh and warm. The front desk and housekeeping services are warm and thoughtful. There is a parking lot for parking. I feel very satisfied. There is a Wanda Plaza next to it for easy eating. The distance and price are acceptable.

1. Location: It is very close to the Two Rivers and Four Lakes cruise ship and Xiangshan. It can be reached on foot. There are shopping malls and restaurants around, making it convenient for eating and shopping. We went to Yangshuo by boat. After contacting the travel agency in advance, it was very convenient to take a bus in front of the hotel. 2. Parking: There are very few parking spaces in front of the hotel, but there is a three-dimensional parking lot not far away. Don't worry about not having a parking space. We went to Yangshuo, and our car can still be parked in the parking lot here, which is good.

My family of three loved this hotel. It looks exactly like the pictures. It was such a beautiful peaceful place to return to each night. We appreciated the coffee available in the seating area. It's located right in the middle of shopping and restaurants. City ebikes and bicycles were within walking distance too. If we return to Guilin, we will definitely stay here again.
