The best hotel I've ever stayed in, the room is so clean with good amenities. Staffs are so friendly and the breakfast was satisfactory because it had a limited choice of western food. The view is amazing from the restaurant. And the hotel has two lovely dogs and a chubby cat. If you are looking for a place to have a peaceful vacation in Yangshuo, you shall definitely choose Zen Garden Resort. I will definitely come there again.

Best experience. Ever.
I travel internationally 50% of the year and stay up to 40 hotels in that time. This was by far the most amazing hotel stay--calm, quiet, incredible views and western-style hospitality and cleanliness standards. If you go to Guilin--stay here.

Beautiful hotel with great staff.
Short getaway to Yangshuo for a mini vacation. Prior to our arrival, the staff were very accommodating in assisting us in figuring out arrival logistics to the hotel. The hotel is modern, clean, and very beautiful. They have many amenities, including self-serve free laundry, and a great rooftop patio and meditation room. The hotel restaurant also serves a great variety of food, and it was very tasty. The staff were incredibly helpful and gracious - Lina and Wendy were amazing! Our room was comfortable, clean and well equipped with the basics. We had a great view of the karsts. The free scooter and bicycle rentals provided was a great bonus as well. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!

We actually didn't end up staying - it was a fair way out of town, the pool was half empty, and the surrounds were a mixture of building sites. Although the staff were genuinely lovely, we didn't want to stay there so stayed somewhere else, despite having paid in full.

Good experience
Very nice and clean. Don’t expect a luxury hotel/ spa. But is in good and Western friendly. Staff helped us to solve everything. Their English is good enough to explain and organise things for us. Make sure to book a mountain view room. You can also rent electric bikes which makes the experience even better

This is the perfect place to go and relax and just breathe. The grounds and view are gorgeous, and it's away from the bustling Yangshuo backpacker city area so you feel like you're in an oasis. The rooms also are gorgeous and clearly a focus on design. Lots of nice touches like plush slippers and robes. The staff wants to do all they can to make your stay fantastic. They will bend over backwards to try and help you. The downside is that only Wendy speaks English, so it is not always easy to communicate your needs or desires. The food in the restaurant isn't great, although other options in the area are equally uninspiring. We went to the very fancy Alila restaurant for a meal and were also disappointed there. Most disappointingly, the pool was not filled during our stay so we could not swim! While it was the beginning of Spring so I understand perhaps it wasn't filled during winter, the temperature was in the 70s when we arrived and we'd been really looking forward to a swim which wasn't possible. A hotel with a pool was one of our criteria when booking, so not being able to swim was a huge letdown. Overall, this seems like a hotel that has huge potential, but is still finding it's groove for international travelers. If you speak Mandarin you'll be fine.

What a wonderful hotel in Yangshuo (out of the town in the River Park). Quiet, beautifully appointed, and with wonderful views across small farms to spectacular limestone peaks. The reception staff were very welcoming, attentive and helpful throughout our stay. The room was beautiful, the restaurant food excellent (although not all vegetarian as the website claimed), and the outdoor swimming pool a dream. Bikes are available for a small hire fee and, when I lost the key to the bike lock at the Moon Hill Reserve, hotel staff came and picked me up. They were also very happy to drop us into Yangshuo town for tour pickups. If we ever return to Yangshuo, this is where we would stay. We could not recommend it more highly.

Wonderful Views & Exceptional Customer Service
The Zen Garden is a hidden gem just outside of Yangshuo. The hotel itself was a little off the beaten path, but the staff was so accommodating it did not matter. We took a Li River cruise from Guilin to Yangshuo and called the hotel when we were 1 hour away, and they arranged a car to pick us up. We went to the hotel to check in and drop off our luggage. The room was very spacious and put together well. All the furniture and decor seemed to be high quality, and there was a lot of attention detail. The air condition was fantastic, much better than other places we stayed in China. As mentioned in other reviews the hotel will arrange transportation to and from town for free, which makes the location not an issue. I would recommend planning for a pickup time and spot, as the late night staff did not speak as good of English and was a little difficult to coordinate. We rented scooters from the hotel for 60¥ per day and were able to see quite of few nearby sites. For our departure, the hotel arranged for a car to take us back to the Guilin North Railway Station for 350¥. Kimberly, one of the staff members that helped us out, was extremely helpful and had such a great personality. He gave us advice on where to go on the scooters and took care of most of the logistics for our transportation. This is how customer service should be.
