Another excellent find thanks to the good folks on TA. We booked the king size room with the river views - we were not disappointed! The receptionists (particually Sally and Jessica) were extremely helpful in helping us decide on our day trips. On the first day our river cruise was cancelled due to high water levels and Jessica went out... More

The staff, service, food, and accommodations at this serene location made for a completely relaxing few days at the end of our China trip. The location is ideal for bike rides around the countryside and yet is close enough to make travel into Yangshuo a breeze. The staff greeted us warmly at check-in and escorted us to our standard river... More

We stayed here four nights. Everything was wonderful. The setting is almost too good to be true: right on the Yulong river (you can watch the bamboo rafts go right by), with 360 degree views of the amazing karst mountains. The room was nice. Attractive, bamboo decorations. Our room had a river view, with a small porch where you could... More

Very cosy, small enterprise justified in their description of "we are a family". Staff seem genuinely to care for you - not just doing it because it is their job. River activities were closed throughout our stay due to a deluge but that made us take advantage of other trips - we would recommend the Chinese cooking and fan painting.

My mom reserved this place because she wanted to unwind and relax....and that we did. It was wonderful. We took the last two rooms which were on each end of the hotel. Small but nice. We had a small deck from which we saw the river and mountains. Fantastic front desk. Very Very helpful! It was truly a beautiful place... More

We had a three night stay here and wished we were staying longer. The location is absolutely amazing. The hotel is sat right by the river and you could not ask for a better view. At the same time, you can walk to the busier strip and some of the caves in about 30 minutes and are a short taxi... More

The hotel is some km off downtown Yangshuo. We had taken a taxi from another city and he had a hard time finding it, but nothing that couldn't be sorted out with a phone call. Our first impression at arrival was of awe: scenery is mindblowing, the access has a nice, tropical, relaxed feeling. We were offered a welcome drink... More

From the moment we arrived it was just magical, beautiful position overlooking the Yulong River. Meals were very nice and plentiful, prices very competitive with outside the retreat. The staff were just beautiful, friendly and extremely accommodating. Free dvd's available as no tv. Enjoy the bamboo rafting, very relaxing. This is a lovely and relaxing place to stay

Yangshuo Mountain Retreat is set in an exquisitely beautiful location with views in all directions of the Yulong river and the amazing surrounding karst peaks. We stayed 3 nights and it is one of our most memorable destinations in all of China. We rafted down the river, climbed to the top of the amazing Moon Hill, took the local bus... More
