Global Village Elegant Lijiang Hotel (Guilin Two Rivers and Four Lakes Xiangbishan Branch)

Staying at Global Village Elegant Lijiang Hotel was an absolute delight! The facilities are brand new—everything from the furnishings to the bathrooms feels fresh and well-maintained. Cleanliness is top-notch; the staff, especially the housekeeping team, are incredibly diligent and keep the entire property spotless. The location is perfect—just a 10-minute walk from Elephant Trunk Hill, with scenic river views along the way.

osmanthus tree resort & spa

This was my second visit to Osmanthus Tree Resort & Spa, and I’m already planning my next stay. The first time I stayed in a twin room—spacious and comfortable—and this time I accidentally booked the wrong room type. I reached out to the front desk, and the staff member immediately stepped in, consulted with management, and upgraded me to the same twin room at no extra cost. That kind of service is rare and truly impressive. The facilities are top-notch, the atmosphere is peaceful, and the attention to detail made all the difference. My kids had a blast exploring the space and even asked if we could stay longer. Everything—from the warm welcome to the thoughtful touches—makes me want to come back again. Definitely one of those places you’ll remember long after check-out.

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!

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.

Guilin Bravo Hotel

Absolutely loved staying at this hotel—location couldn’t be better, right by the Rong Lake with a peaceful view from the lobby. I was expecting an older property, but was pleasantly surprised by the modern Western-style architecture and clean, fresh-smelling rooms. No musty odors at all, just crisp, well-maintained spaces. The price is very reasonable for what you get—great value for money. Everything you need is within walking distance: great local eateries, shops, and evening strolls along the lake. One night, we stopped by a small noodle shop near the hotel and tried their braised goose—half a bird for only 46 yuan! It was delicious, juicy, and full of flavor, and everyone back home raved about it when we brought some back. The affordability here really stands out—food and services feel so budget-friendly without sacrificing quality. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, offering great tips on local spots to visit. This place feels like a hidden gem in Guilin. If you're visiting, don't miss it—it’s definitely one of my top picks for future trips.
