"Our stay here was nothing short of amazing! We loved this property as it was clean, the room was large and the staff were so helpful. They booked us cars to get from the train station and airport, helped us book a scooter and even gave us food recommendations. We used the pool as it was so hot out and we also ate the breakfast both mornings. The staff were the highlight though as they were truly amazing. Such a beautiful property to be lucky enough to stay at."

"A wonderful stay in Yangshuo and easily a 5-star experience for us. The location is excellent—very convenient and walkable—and it felt like everything had been thoughtfully arranged with travelers in mind. What really stood out was the staff. Everyone was exceptionally friendly, spoke excellent English, and was always happy to answer questions or find a solution to anything we asked. The hotel also offers far more than we expected: good coffee, plenty of food and drink choices (including alcohol), with free delivery to the room, as well as in-room massage, cooking classes, and even art and calligraphy classes on the premises. The combination of location, service, convenience, and all the little extras made our stay especially enjoyable. We would happily stay at Yangshuo Riverview Hotel again and definitely recommend it."

"The staff at this hotel were amazing and couldn’t do enough for you. They have e-bikes which you can rent. One of the staff even came and found me when I got lost!! The property is about 7km from the town but very doable if you take the e-bikes and the hotel provides helmets. The pool is very instagrammable! The views were amazing. They also have local costumes available for dressing up in if that appeals. There are lots of high tech gizmos, including a Japanese style toilet, a movie screen that comes down from the roof and automated curtains. All can be controlled by voice commands (if you speak Chinese)! This was our favourite hotel and we’d love to go back."
