Yangshuo Village Inn

Great option. Highly recommended. Can't go wrong with it. Phoenix fonglou pagoda is also a great option that was a little less expensive and the food was better because of a better selection of local famous chinese dishes.

I'd definitely recommend staying here. We had a great room with a balcony and view of Moon Hill, comfortable bed and very clean room. The hotel is well positioned outside of (but not too far from) Yangshuo, easily accessible to lots of sites/activities - and the staff were extremely helpful with helping us organise that, and they spoke very good English. Also enjoyed the delicious breakfasts in the leafy courtyard in the mornings and excellent restaurant on the roof for dinner at any other time of day.

Every now and then when travelling in China,you get lucky. We found this place whilst still paying for 3 rooms at the absolutely crap Guilin Plaza. The Yangshou Inn is so good that we left all our luggage in our pre paid rooms in Guilin and stayed here instead. My only complaint is that during July, the so called village was visited by....... 180 large coaches ( yes we counted). this is not the hotels fault but it ruins your exit from the front door as the dust and noise are shocking. I recomend you hire some scooters and go into the mountain villages, stunning people and scenery. Do not visit the stupid tree or do the river cruise they are horrific,tourist factory farming at it's absulute worst. Eat nasi goreng upstairs and have the coconut milkshake........perfection.

A great welcome at this friendly Inn. Good food, staff helpful and knowledgeable. Had a room in the farmhouse that is large, airy and with all the facilities we needed.

We had an amazing stay at the Yangshuo Village Inn! It surpassed all of our expectations in all categories! Everyone went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. They helped us plan some wonderful day trips, meals, and night activities! We were always greeted with big smiles and felt very welcomed! Highly recommend it - wish I could have spent more time there!

Most hotels in China are very uneven,eg, an otherwise nice place may stink of smoke or dog, or have a disturbing loud air conditioning. The service at this place was very smooth as well as relaxed. A friendly staff with a cold cup of sweet tea and a wet cloth greets you when you arrive. The rooms are very cozy. The decor is very artful, but again, relaxed. The surrounding area is beautiful, and with the exception of a neighbor who likes to play Chinese cow-punk music in the morning, very quiet. (Call the police at 110 and ask them to enforce the noise ordinance.) The staff are very attentive and knowledgeable. The only thing I could complain about was the shower, which did have a lot of power.

We had a lovely time in Yangzhou. The location is very good. We were very glad we stayed here rather than in town. It is much closer cycling and taxi distance to the main attractions, and more scenic. Still very rustic, but clean and very comfortable. The staff were really wonderful and made us feel at home. Sitting in the courtyard under the pomelo trees we felt relaxed and very much apart of the village. An excellent stay. The sister hotel is located in a more beautiful location, but does not have the authentic village feel.

The staff really makes this a great place to stay. Very helpful and friendly. This means a lot in a country that is still developing its tourist infrastructure. Be aware that this hotel is not in Yangshuo town but rather is in Moon Village about a 15 minute / 30 yuan cab ride away. It is set among beautiful scenery but the village itself doesn't offer much beyond curio shops. The hotel roof top restaurant really puts out excellent food at fair prices. We would definitely return to this hotel.

I was in the modernised rather charming traditional farmhouse out the back of the main modern building. There were five ensuite rooms but I was the only guest at the time. The wooden floors might be a bit noisy with a full complement of guests. The locals chatted rather noisily in the lane ouside in the evenings but all was quiet by 10pm. No passing traffic at all. Fruit available and hot water for hot drinks.Aircon.WiFi.Note the matresses are very firm! The staff were great. Luna restaurant on the roof terrace of the main hotel had a good Italian menu. I hired one of the mountain bikes and had a great day cycling the lanes by the local Yangshuo rivers.The main roads have steady traffic but the by-ways are very quiet. One day had heavy rain so I went to the more up-market sister property called the Mountain Retreat even tho' it atually is situated on a river-bank in a wide valley. Good lunch and bar service as the rain poured down outside! Note that Moon Hill is about 9 kilometres away from the frenetic buzz of Yangshuo town. Good cheap taxi service connections can be arranged by the reception desk. Moon Hill has a main street which has been by-passed by the main highway. A quiet safe street with twenty or more grocery stores and cheap Chinese cafes. The local area is studded with the karst limestone crags rising out of the fields. Note that is easy for your Guilin agent to book you a Li River lunch cruise to Yangshuo and you abandon the return journey to Guilin.

This accommodation is highly rated for experiencing living in a village. Inn is quiet, breakfast in the garden, dinner in the rooftop restuarant. Staff very helpful, good understanding of English so organising tours are easily arranged. Moon Hill lookout is within walking distance. Rooms have modern bathroom facilities. Transport to Yangshuo available.
