Li River CIAO Hotel( Guilin Elephant Trunk Hill)

Staying at Li River CIAO Hotel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Guilin! The room view overlooking the Li River was breathtaking—every morning felt like waking up in a postcard. Service was prompt and friendly; whether I called or messaged via WeChat, responses came quickly. To my surprise, they upgraded our room for free and even offered a late checkout—such a thoughtful touch! My mom and I both loved the chairs in the room—they were surprisingly comfortable and perfect for relaxing after a long day. I also booked the one-hour artistic photo shoot experience, which was efficient and delivered great results: three beautiful, natural-looking photos that captured the moment perfectly. The custom gift set included a calming essential oil with real rose petals inside—opening it released such a rich, soothing rose scent that instantly lifted my mood. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to visit the Gu Opera cultural exhibition, but that didn’t take away from the overall fantastic experience. From the location to the personal touches, this hotel truly stands out. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a peaceful, stylish stay with a hint of local charm.

Staying at Venus Royal Hotel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Guilin. The room features a warm, natural wood design that instantly feels inviting—large floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with sunlight, and the smart lighting system adds just the right ambiance. The bathroom is perfectly separated into dry and wet zones, which makes it so much more convenient and hygienic. Bonus points for free parking and self-service laundry—perfect for travelers driving in. One unexpected gem? Even if you don’t book the garden suite, guests can freely explore it for photoshoots—yes, they even lend out Hanfu costumes! I couldn’t resist snapping some beautiful traditional-style shots 📸. Location-wise, this hotel is unbeatable—it’s literally nestled within the Two Rivers and Four Lakes scenic area. It’s just a 3-minute walk to Elephant Trunk Hill Park, 8 minutes to Zhiyin Pier for views of the Moon and Sun Pagodas, and a relaxed 15-minute stroll to the historic Dongxiang Ancient Street. At night, head straight to the nearby pier for a boat ride through the illuminated riverscape—so magical. This place truly combines Guilin’s best: stunning natural scenery, unbeatable convenience, and endless photo opportunities. I’ll definitely be booking here again on my next visit!

Guilin Zizhou Panorama Resort

Arriving at the Zizhou ticket office, you can contact the hotel front desk for a complimentary shuttle pickup—plus, there’s free parking available, which is super convenient. Check-in was smooth and friendly, with staff members, including housekeeping, greeting guests warmly with genuine smiles. The room itself was well-appointed, clean, and fully equipped, making it a comfortable stay. We visited during New Year's Eve, but we prefer quiet celebrations, and being on an island made all the difference—once night fell, the crowds disappeared completely. After dinner, we took peaceful strolls along the riverside, enjoyed breathtaking views of Elephant Trunk Hill bathed in golden sunset light, and captured some amazing photos. It felt like our own private retreat. I’d love to come back for a longer stay next time—this place truly offers a serene escape in the heart of Guilin.
