Hotels in Yangshuo
Hotels in Yangshuo are easy to find. But which is good, and
which is not so good? Many travelers in China find it difficult
to go there and get a hotel on the spot. And sometimes it is
difficult when you find the staff doesn't speak English, can't
make you understand what they can offer. Therefore I thought
it was a good idea to give you a few ideas about hotels I know
and I can recommend.
The following hotels in Yangshuo have an English speaking staff,
a good service and clean rooms. You may find cheaper accommodation
when you do search a bit more, but for sure you will not find nicer
accommodation then the following hotels.
All prices are given in Chinese Yuen. For checking the
conversion to your own currency, please us our

The hotels we recommend have staff speaking English.
Green Lotus Hotel
(
)
The Green Lotus Hotel in Yangshuo is one of the few 5 star hotel in town. It's
located very conveniently in between the famous West Street and the new area
with East Street and the Liu Sanjie Lightshow theatre.
The hotel offers a range of facilities including a beautiful swimming pool.
About 80% of the rooms have spectacular views over the Li River and the
limestone mountains behind.
The Green Lotus Hotel is certainly worth the money you will spend.

Impressions lightshow, the Sovereign is a wonderful choice.
River View room of the VIP building of the Sovereign Hotel Yangshuo
Compared to other
hotels in town, the Sovereign offers probably the best view over the Li River
and combines comfort with what you can expect from a 4 star hotel. Rooms are
specious, well maintained (we highly recommend the rooms in the VIP Building).
Breakfast (excellent Western and Chinese) is included in the price.

Snow Lion Riverside Resort

The Snow Lion Riverside Resort is very new Yangshuo retreat just outside
the town center. William and Linda run this great hotel which located near the
Liu Sanjie show
They have worked very hard over the years to fulfill a dream, to own one of the real
classy hotels in Yangshuo! And, I have to admit, they have succeeded.
Few places in Yangshuo offer a better and more spectacular view over the
limestone mountains. With their dream coming true, William and Linda offer
such a lovely hotel.
The Snow Lion Riverside Resort, as located 2.5 km outside the Yangshuo town center,
has a good restaurant with Chinese and Western food available. And in case you want
to organize a barbeque, these facilities are also available.

Magnolia Hotel
(
)
The Magnolia Hotel is a new hotel in Yangshuo town center. As Yangshuo has
many hotels you may ask yourself why staying right here? If you need a room with
style and class and you want to stay in the city center, there's no other
option.
I stayed in the deluxe double room which is so spacious you could ride a
bicycle around! The Magnolia is by far the most unbeatable hotel in Yangshuo.
The hotel is conveniently located within 3 minutes walking from
West Street and the Li River boulevard.
There is a very good vegetarian restaurant: Pure Lotus Vegetarian
Restaurant which is worth to try out.

Dragon River Retreat(
)
The Yulong river provides Yangshuo with some of the most spectacular
sights in the region. Therefore alone the Dragon River Retreat is worth a
stay. This Yangshuo retreat is brand new. With excellent views over the surrounding
limestone mountains and a sneak view into Moonhill
(!), the Dragon River Retreat is certainly one of the finest hotels in and
around Yangshuo.
The entrance of the Dragon River Retreat, the Yulong river is on the
other side
The hotel is located 8km from Yangshuo but that should not turn you off
as transport to and from Yangshuo can always be arranged. For local
exploration there are bicycles for rent and you can easily board one of the
many rafts passing by at the Yulong River.

River Retreat, photos and price and much more plus

Yangshuo Hidden Dragon Hotel
(
)
The Yangshuo Hidden Dragon Hotel is another beautiful hotel in the
surrounding countryside of Yangshuo. More then any other hotel, the Yangshuo
Hidden Dragon Hotel breaths typical QIng/Ming culture.
The spectacular lobby of the Yangshuo Hidden Dragon Villa
If you want to experience some of China's legendary culture, this is an
excellent place. Although new build, the hotel has a lot of antiques but the
modern facilities are not forgotten. Rooms with spectacular views both to the
river and village belong to some of the best in the area. This is a much
recommended hotel!

7th Heaven Cafe & Hostel
Yangshuo has plenty of cheap hotels, hostels and guesthouses. My favorite
over the years has always been the 7th Heaven Cafe & Hostel. Originally
located at West Street, but now the cafe has moved to a more quiet area 2
minutes away from West Street.
The 7th Heaven has only a few rooms and they're often full so make sure
you book in advance. The food is since long of very descent quality,
especially the western food is much better then many of the other places
where I have been eating.

Long regarded as number one hotel in
Yangshuo, the Yangshuo Paradise (or Paradesa) is still one of the more up market hotels.
It's conveniently located right in the heart of Yangshuo at the beginning of
Yangshuo's famous West Street

quality. It is also much used for honeymooners and wedding receptions.
