"We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this hotel!
Firstly the hotel is very conveniently located at the foot of the elephant hill, so despite the rain we could see the elephant hill from the windows of our room without going outside and getting wet. The hotel also very kindly upgraded our room so we had a great time drinking tea and watching the sunrise and sunset from our room. Bed was also very comfortable, and minibar is free which is a huge plus!
Hotel breakfast was also delicious and they served local delicacies such as 桂林米粉. We were lucky to spend Christmas morning in the hotel so there was a Santa Claus dressed up and giving away treats to all the hotel guests, really nice touch. Coffee is also good.
Lastly, the service staff are fantastic. 小诗 was extremely attentive, enthusiastic and responsive to our requests (borrowing umbrella, nail clippers, refilling the mini bar, housekeeping etc), and the butler team is available 24/7 on WeChat.
Overall the experience was wonderful and we would definitely be back to stay with them again!! Highly recommended to couples and families travelling to Guilin"
