Yangshuo Village Inn

I would not stay anywhere else in Yangshuo. Beuatiful view of the mountains and just about 10 minute taxi to city-centre. Staff all speak great english. Food is superb, and rooms are modern clean and quiet!

This hotel is beautifully maintained, comfortable, and has friendly staff. The views are amazing. We wish that we could have spent more time here.

From even before I got to the Yangshou Village Inn, I knew it would be wonderful because of the staff. Our flight got canceled from Nanjing and the Inn had arranged a car to pick us up so I contacted them via email to let them know about our flight. They were very understanding and shared their WeChat so I could communicate easier. The next day, I sent a message and Anna immediately got back to me telling me a driver would be waiting when we arrived at the airport in Guilin. When we finally got to the Inn, Tina greeted us with a welcome drink (and a hug since after all of our communication, I felt we were already friends!) and showed us to our room in the North Hall. It was AMAZING!! The room was spacious, clean and comfortable and we immediately felt at home. Tina helped us plan our couple days in Yangshou by giving us recommendations and prices and the book in the room was also a great help in giving us ideas of what to see and what to do. The Luna restaurant on the rooftop was delicious and Jessica was so professional and welcoming as well. We also had foot massages in our rooms! I knew that I could ask Anna and Tina anything and they would help us and sure enough, they did! It was so great to see them each day because they remembered our names and made us feel like we lived there! I would recommend this hotel to EVERYONE purely for the customer service! It was so refreshing because that is not always the highest priority in China (I know, because I live here!)

After staying in 5 star chain hotels in Beijing and Shanghai, which are all very nice, it was great to land in a small, quiet western oriented inn located in a Chinese village. The staff was very eager to make us comfortable and to help us navigate Yangzhou, which they did. Our room was spotless and the cozy lobby was warmed by a fire pit in the wall that the staff kept burning all day. Most of the staff is bilingual and fun to talk to. The inexpensive menu is good but their sister inn, the "Mountain retreat", has a bigger menu that we enjoyed even more. Our Chinese hosts, Tina, Anna, Jessica and Gloria are bilingual and fun to talk to and they made sure we had everything we needed. When we first arrived in Yangzhou late at night on the bus, Tina sent a taxi to pick us up and when we left, Anna made sure we made it to the airport in Guilin in time for our flight. Thanks to everyone at the village inn we had a great stay.

FAntastic staff. Great menu in the roof top restaurant. .

Perfect hospitality and great service. The staff does all possible to make the guests comfortable. Dinner and lunch is excellent for a reasonable price.. They serve Italian as well as Chinese food

Nice hotel with very friendly staff. Near scenic spots but far from Yangshuo downtown

Very carefully re-furbished buildings, which have been very well maintained. Extremely friendly and competent front office staff (special mention of Tina, our charming hostess) and great service in the restaurant. Breakfast (as included in our package) was satisfying, as was the one pizza dinner that we enjoyed during our stay. Our suite was extremely comfortable, spacious and clean, with access to filtered drinking water much appreciated. All in all, the stay at the Village Inn rates as one of the high points of our tour of China.

This is how I had hoped all my hotels in China would be! Sadly not everywhere can be this perfect, but I deliberately chose Yangshuo Village Inn for the last few days of a 2 month China trip. The pictures and blurb looked so enticing, and the reality didn't disappoint. Maybe business travellers want bland, functional rooms, but as a tourist, I like a hotel that has a bit of the character of the location. The owners of the Village Inn have gone out of their way to create a boutique hotel with loads of charm. The rooms have 'atmosphere' without going kitch, and the Moon Hill Room had a perfect view of the main attraction. Follow that up with a great restaurant, and staff who really want you to enjoy your holiday. I only wish I could have stayed longer. Many thanks for the care you put into the property, and the kindness you showed this weary traveller.

We had the most delightful stay. The air conditioning in the rooms were a lifesaver as it was hot and humid in June. The staff were all so gracious and helpful. They arranged a driver to get us from the airport late at night, as well as to arrange various other day trips. We are so happy we stayed there and highly recommend it. We were SOOO glad that we stayed here to experience Guilin, and not in town, which is 1 hour away. This was the absolute best spot for seeing the area - Li River boat trips, bike rides, bamboo rafting Yanghsuo River, etc...
