Li River Resort took terrific care of me throughout my 5 night stay. The staff was very attentive and remembered my room, name, and preferences from the start. As a woman traveling solo, it felt good to be known and safe, too. Excellent English language skills helped to plan my events and chat about the day when I returned. The facilities appeared to be in fine shape. Room was always clean. Very tasteful, artistic touches. The trees filtered my view of the river. The mountains stood out beautifully. For two of my days in town, I was happy simply to hang out at the hotel, my balcony, and grounds. I took the front desk help in lining up massage, Tai Chi lesson, private bike tour, and taxi. I was delighted with the services and found the prices competitive with online offers. Again, I felt looked after. I rented a bike from the place across the road and found the bike adequate to riding the roads and paddy paths, at a very reasonable price. The restaurant kept me coming back for both breakfast and dinner. Tasty food, remembered my spice preferences, and generous portions. I also ate at the local restaurant across the street which was ok and a couple good places in town. To get there I took the bus from the airport to Yangshuo. Didn't see the taxi stand and wasn't able to negotiate a price as low as the hotel suggested due to rush hour Returning, the staff helped me with my bus ticket at no extra charge and taxi for the agreed rate. Overall Li River Resort made a great vacation.

Home away from home
Beautiful place. Puts many 5 star resorts to shame. Tucked away from hustle and bustle in a picturesque area this place is only a short ride in a taxi or a 20 min walk to the Centre. Breathtaking views from each room and a restaurant. Such a great place to relax! Fantastic food, caters to even the fussiest eater ... Staff is it’s biggest asset; each will go extra mile to help, accommodate your needs and make your stay worries-free. Thank you so much for organizing our tours, taxi rides and making our visit to China such a memorable experience.

The rooms are very nice and well decorated. The views are very nice too but not spectacular as in other hotels in Yangshuo. That being said, the value is good. Although the staff is friendly enough and English is way above average compared to most Chinese hotel (keep in mid that is a very low bar), I had an issue with a partial booking cancellation that was not resolved to my full satisfaction. They were inflexible and I ended up paying way too much for a room that I didn't use.

Picturesque and tranquil setting away from (but not far from) the mad bustle of Yangshuo. Excellent service, modern amenities, great restaurant with reasonable prices on premises. We stayed in the Family Suite. One of the nicest places I have ever stayed in China (since 1982)

One of The Best in the World!
Wow! Wear to begin?? We stayed at 6 hotels on our 3+ week long anniversary trip, making this home for 5 nights. This was a difficult place to leave. First, we want to give BIG thanks to the staff who made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Angel, Emily, Sophie, and Chin are most hospitable. We enjoyed getting to know them and seeing their smiles. The view: The BEST on this entire trip. Collectively, my husband and I have visited over 70 countries. We both put this stay in our Top 5 in the world. Yes, the world! We stayed with the view at the back of the hotel (not overlooking the swimming pool) and we were extremely with our decision. Every morning and night we were able to see only nature as the sun rose and set. We took full advantage of the soaking tub overlooking the river and mountains. The food: The duck and fried rice were our favorites, though surprisingly they make a delicious pizza too. The toffee bananas...yummy treat! Great selection of wine and beer too. Angel gifted us with a special treat from her moms garden, pomelo fruit! Thank you! Location: Perfect!!!!! Away from the city center but close enough to walk to. We had too much fun in the city. Suggestions: For a #1 rated hotel in China, bathrobes are highly suggested and coffee could use some improving.

Let's start with "Everything was perfect"! How they send me a message before my arriving, how they setup a taxi for me at the airport, how they staff remembered what type of beer I drink (hello IPA's), the pool, the view from my room, everything was perfect. Thank you Li River Resort for these 4 amazing days!

A gem in Yangshuo
We went there for part of our one week trip to Guilin and Yangshuo area. There are lots of small hotels scattered around Yangshuo and that makes it difficult to choose. Finally, we choose Li River Resort because it is not in the city centre (the West Street) which is too busy for a relaxed trip whilst not very far away from places of action. We are not disappointed at all. We can walk along the river side to the city centre in 30 minutes which is very pleasant, or ask the hotel to arrange a taxi for RMB 30.-. The hotel is in the countryside that it may not be easy to arrange transportation by your own unless you drive. Once I arrive at the hotel, I am totally amazed by its setting, the design and decoration with a Chinese touch. The room that I booked and stayed is of very good size, but the bathroom is a complete open one. That said, it is appropriate for couples and very close friends only. The bed is not too hard and very comfortable whilst the room is clean and spotless facing the river. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu is quite extensive at reasonable price. We took breakfast during our three days' stay and dinners after exploring the city and neighboring tourist spots. We also book the taxi for a day trip and on the way to the train station at check-out. Both check-in and check-out are smooth without incident. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. The swimming pool is a plus. Good experience and thank you.

Peaceful Riverside Getaway
Amazing hotel, a short taxi ride from downtown, but far away enough where you can enjoy some peace and tranquility with mountain and Li river views. The owner, Alf (from Australia and lived in China for 20 years with his family), was there at checkout and throughout. Him and the staff made it feel like a bed and breakfast experience, but within a hotel. The rooms were very comfortable - and in fact, was one of the few hotels we stayed at where the temperature control actually worked (we used the AC). Since this was the end of our 10 day trip in China, we wanted to take it easy. We had lunch and dinner at the hotel - and the staff made amazing Chinese dishes - local flavored chicken, curry vegetables in clay pot, and so much more! On our final day there, I stood on the balcony of my room for 30 minutes just staring out into the mountains - felt so good for the soul ;-).

Opulent hotel outside of Yangshou. Beautiful view.
We arrived late in the evening and the cab had us call to make sure we were at the right address (It is a beautiful and rather remote area which is appealing for a relaxing China vacation). The hotel drive is steep and the staff actually ran down to carry our luggage up the hill. The staff was extremely pleasant and Angel at the front desk was very helpful arranging a tour of the Li River for us. The restaurant was great and offered both Chinese and Western food. Our only complaint would be the heating system. The room never warmed up completely, but in the south of China this is not usual as I understand it. The staff put electric blankets on our beds for the second night. We did not request that, but it was wonderful. I wish we would have had them the first night. There was much attention paid to decorating the hotel. The room was georgous and the amenities reflected of that. They had adorable slippers and shower shoes in various sizes right inside the door. I even loved their coffee cups that had lids and small spoons inside the lid. Overall this was my favorite hotel during our trip to China. The hotel overlooks the Li River and views were unbelievable. It was a great retreat from the hussle and bussle of the big coties.

My second stay here and was delighted again with the quality of this boutique hotel. Suburb views of the mountains and river. The best food in our entire stay in China, homemade bread so tasty! Friendly and knowledgeable staff who know the secret spots to get out of the touristy areas. Looking forward to my next visit.
