vistas de ensueño

las vistas desde la habitación. espectaculares!, nos dejaron hasta un proyector en la habitación. El chico que nos atendió hablaba ingles, lo que es de agradecer en un pais donde cuesta encontrarlo. El trato recibido fue de 10. el desayuno riquísimo, tipo buffet y con comida occidental (tortitas, baicon, cafe...)

todo estuvo genial

Will stay again!

The rooms are very clean and comfortable. A very peaceful area and the Craig was very helpful with excellent English. The taxi to the main shopping area is easy. The pool was smaller than it looked in the photo but nice. Lovely garden area, easy for kids to explore and be safe. There was an Asian or western breakfast choice which varied between a buffet or served breakfast. There was also a variety of options available throughout the day from the menu from sandwiches to main meals. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Nothing, it was fabulous.

Definite will NOT come back!

The staff were friendly. The location was great away from crowded touristy West Street. We stayed at the terrace room offering a lovely view of the beautiful mountains. You have to take a taxi to get out each time but it was cheap (10RMB via Didi app each way).

3 days in, we had to cancel our stay and move to a different hotel as the owners / guests were too noisy (screaming in the hallway at stupid o'clock in the morning) and being inconsiderate. The room was NOT soundproofed - I can hear a woman wearing her high heels constantly walking and dragging her suitcase around above me. I called the front desk to complain but was told that was the owner's wife which I found extremely disrespectful - there's a note asking all guests to be quiet and considerate of others but owners couldn't give a flying monkey's themselves! WHAT AN IRONY AND UTTER DISGRACE! Wifi did NOT work in the room most of the time so was hard to get work done (I'm a digital nomad). The breakfast was VERY basic and tasteless. There's NO housekeeping / cleaning apart from changing the bins each day. We definite will NOT come back!

Fantastic hotel, outstanding team

Great location, quieter and higher than most, so views are better. Short walk to river and ferry. Fantastic owner and staff. Shelly and Craig speak great English. 1st class advice. Food is good and has great value. Thank you, cooks. Rooms we had had marvellous views. Kids took art lessons, brilliant teacher , and very fair prices. Fantastic

Fantastic hotel with a stunning view, extremely helpful staff and tasty breakfast.

Our stay was great! The service at the hotel was extremely helpful and very generous. The hotel provides a wide choice of breakfast sets, and the rooms are of an extremely high standard. Best of all is the view onto the karst formations around Yangshuo. It’s breathtaking. I highly recommend the Riverside Retreat to anyone who would like to experience Yangshuo, while being immersed in nature.

Very good cost benefit with lovely Yangshuo view

The room is large and recently renewed. The bed and pillows were very comfy, the shower had very warm water for the cold days. The staff is very friendly and smiley. There is western and Chinese breakfast, and we wanted a local chicken dish which they cooked for us.

Their cat was very shy and didn’t want to become my friend

A hotel with a beautiful view

The views from the room and front of the hotel were beautiful. The staff were friendly and helpful. Food portions were big and reasonably priced so you won't be going hungry. The area is quiet and peaceful with nature for company. Initially we thought the pool was small but it's perfect for having a cool dip in after a long day of exploring. All the other guests we spoke to said it was great value for money. All the extra services provided were cheaper than the town and even other hotels such as hiring an ebike and laundry services.

There wasn't anything we didn't like. Noise travels through the hotel so it might be worth a couple of signs to remind guests to be respectful of other travellers (noisy children!) We wished there was 2 chairs in a room or on a balcony. We had a lovely, comfy chair in the room but not enough for both of us to sit on and enjoy the beautiful view.

Superb

I had an excellent stay here. It really is a retreat - so peaceful and comfortable, with excellent views and delicious food. If you are looking for a relaxing stay, you must book here! The menu has so many food options that you do not need to leave to buy anything. Breakfast is delicious. The common eating area is set up so it's easy to talk with other travelers or by yourself, whatever you prefer. All the staff is so kind and helpful! The location is across the Li River but it is easy to cross over every day. By walking, it's about 15 minutes to the ferry. By driving or ebike, it is no problem at all. (I also highly recommend renting an ebike to explore Yangshuo!) I extended my stay by two days because it was too good to leave!!

A gem of a place! Highly recommend

The staff, location and view couldn't have been better. Shelly the owner and her family run the hotel and it is such a nice, family-centred place. Shelly speaks good English and is always willing to help organise outings and book scooters to hire. Weiwei is such a lovely, happy person to collect your breakfast order. Shelly's older sister cleans the rooms and is so kind and friendly. The pool is lovely, though it does need to be cleaned (and this was in fact underway as we left). The view is priceless. If you like waking up to the sounds of the countryside (roosters and frogs!) you'll love this place.

There were a couple of leaks in our bathrooms which took a few days to fix. The pool needs to be cleaned or the pump and filter fixed. The towels often smelled of mould so I think drying the towels is a challenge for them.

Best mountain view in Yangshuo

What a gem! By far the best views of the mountains in Yangshuo. Quiet side of the river. Peaceful. Best sleep I have had in years. Friendly staff. Beautiful room with amazing view. Authentic. Great swimming pool. A Didi ride away from West Street (punch in Dongling Villa southwest gate).

peaceful and beautiful stay:)

Such a beautiful room, very clean and spacious. The bed was really big and comfy, the terrace was spacious and the view to the mountains just felt amazing. Craig is such an amazing host, very careful and helpful, he told me everything I needed to know, shared and suggested places to visit, also kindly arranged the scooter. Couldn’t ask for more, everything was perfect. Thank you!

Amazing view of the Yangshuo

- From my point of view the best thing that this hotel has is the fantastic view of Yangshuo hills, due to it’s specific location. The place is very quiet. - I have booked the cheapest room at this hotel, because I stayed only for few days in Yangshuo, but I was surprised with it, I had a balcony and the best view from my room. I appreciate that a lot. The room was spacious and had a very comfortable big bed. - All the staff were super friendly and helpful. I was offered advices on what to see in Yangshuo and how to get everywhere. And also at some point was offered the cheapest way for me to get somewhere, instead of trying to rip off tourists and offer the most expensive options, like other hotels like to do. So I respect this. - I arrived very late to Guilin airport, but I was still offered airport transfer, and they driver was on time, which made my trip very comfortable - Also important to mention, after checking out of my room, I still had a lot of free time before my ride, so the staff let me stay on the terrace and relax and enjoy the view while waiting.

Tranquil, beautiful setting

Great location for tranquility - set away from the town with fantastic views. The rooms are basic but fine. Could do with a clean, especially the bathroom. Hosts were great and arranged horse riding for us and gave us directions to the ferry across to Yangshuo town. Great location to explore Fuli and Xingping from.
