Hotels near Lingui District Political Consultative Conference in Guilin

Check in was easy and location was extremely close to the main shopping district. We had a very friendly guy by the name of xiao shou help us and provide us great recommendations.

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！

I would like to extend a special thank you to staff members at the front desk, Mia and Dong Dong, during my recent stay. Their dedication to ensuring my comfort and satisfaction was truly exceptional. Their attentiveness, professionalism, and friendly demeanor made my experience at the hotel even more memorable. I am grateful for their outstanding service and look forward to returing to the Guilin Holiday Inn Express in the future, knowing that I will be in good hands.

The location of the hotel is next to the Li River🏞️🏞️ To go to East and West Alley, walk for about 20 minutes (over the Jiefang Bridge) This is a warm homestay with complete facilities, and the attitude of the staff is very friendly and enthusiastic! Help us order boat tickets and remind us of the attractions there! 🤭 Stayed for two nights, booked a balcony soaking room, the room was very comfortable Downstairs of the homestay is an internet celebrity cafe, the coffee is very good! There are two cats! There is a group of energetic young people! Give a big thumbs up! I also received a gift when I checked out (their dried papaya and chili sauce are delicious, I bought them separately!)

A lovely stay, despite a hiccup. Super comfortable bed and really clean room. Lots of interesting little artefacts and communal areas in the hotel and the staff are super friendly and helpful. We stayed for a one night stopover in Guilin before heading to the Longshen fields and it was perfect for this. It's right next to Elephant trunk hill so we were able to tick that off easily despite a very short stay. We had one night in Longshen coming up next and needed a way to get there the next day. We thought instead of taking the public bus we would check with the hotel to see if they did any direct shuttles. They said they'd be able to fit us in with their tour van the next day and although it was a scheduled tour, they could arrange to drop us off at a point near our next hotel if we paid for the seats and entry fee for the Longshen fields. It turned out there was a bit of a miscommunication and we ended up stuck on the tour for quite some time (including a lunch stop we didn't really want) before they reached our drop off point. The tour driver was also supposed to drop us off in an area past a payment checkpoint in Longshen but we were dropped off outside of it and had to pay the entrance fee again. The hotel attempted to help by sending us receipts of the payment made and asked us to go to the ticket office to seek a refund for the double up. The ticket office was a bit far from where we were staying and we simply did not have time to do that given our tight schedule. It was a bit annoying as it wasn't our fault that the tour driver dropped us off at the wrong place and we weren't re-imbursed for his mistake. We understand though that this all came down to a bit of a miscommunication and a language barrier (most the staff only spoke Mandarin but I can only speak Cantonese so could only communicate to one of the staff members). Everyone was trying their best to accommodate our request, so we are understanding of that. The mistake happened because we were trying to be too clever but ended up getting something we didn't want. My advice for anyone doing the same thing heading to Longshen from the area is to just use the public bus services as it will be much easier (and cheaper).

✨ Walking into Venus Royal Hotel, you feel like you are in a romantic dream. ✨ 🏨 Venus Royal Hotel attracts countless travelers with its superior location. The hotel is located on the bank of the beautiful Shan Lake in the Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area, adjacent to the Zhengyang Road Pedestrian Street. On the left is the Guilin landmark ”Sun and Moon Twin Towers” and only a few steps away from the Guilin city emblem ”Elephant Trunk Mountain”. The hotel has spacious and comfortable guest rooms, each of which is equipped with a full set of modern facilities. The upper floors can completely overlook the entire scenic spot. 🛁 The hotel where you can see the Elephant Trunk Mountain with your eyes open allows me to completely relax after a day of sightseeing ~ This is really the only hotel in Guilin that can view the Elephant Trunk Mountain, Lijiang River, and Sun and Moon Twin Towers at the same time Dining room! 🚗Transportation: The transportation is very convenient. In the city center, it is basically not far away by taxi. It takes about 10 minutes to get to Guilin Station Yiyi Hotel; about 25 minutes to Guilin North Station Hotel; and about 45 minutes to Guilin Liangjiang International Airport-Hotel. 🥂The viewing restaurant has an excellent view of Elephant Trunk Mountain and the Sun and Moon Twin Towers. It has a 270-degree ultra-wide outdoor terrace with a view of the sunrise and sunset. It is located on the 6th floor of the hotel.

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.

Great hotel in a great location. Walkable from the Guilin (south) train station (although you can ride 1 stop on the bus to cut the distance in half) and on the #100 route to Guilinbei (north) train station. Nicely situated for a walk along the river and the elephant hill park, and easy to catch the #3 bus to Reed Flute Cave. It's about 1km walk from the rest of the town, although if you are feeling lazy there are several bus routes into town. The hotel organised my ticket and transfer to the Guling-＞Yangshuo river cruise. There's no lift in the hotel, which could be an issue for some, but the reception staff insisted on carrying my suitcase up the stairs for me. There's a free washing machine and clothes drying area on the roof of one of the two buildings, with detergent provided. One of the receptionists spoke great English which was very useful booking the cruise, but also was happy to let me practice chatting in Mandarin with him.

Super reasonable 5star accommodation at the fraction of cost. If one is free to use didi(Chinese version of Uber), location isn’t such a big issue. However, if one expect not only comfy room but also requires 5star service, I recommend pay more for global brand hotel. Breakfast was good enough for those who are already accustomed to Chinese style. All staffs were very kind, helpful, and enough for Chinese local hotel. Stayed for 2days and fairly satisfied especially room conditions and cleanness. The only issue that I wasn’t comfortable was the lousy atmosphere at the lobby and breakfast. However, I am well satisfied with the super reasonable value. I will definitely consider back on my next visit to Guilin for sure.

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)
