Pros:

Las vistas son preciosas y el restaurante daba buen servicios.

Cons:

La habitación no correspondía con lo que vimos en fotos al reservar. Se encontraba en un estado algo descuidado. Bastante mejorable. Sería interesante que al reservar aparecieran todas las habitaciones que te pueden tocar al elegir ese tipo, y ya tú decidir si te merece la pena o no

Paradise in Yangshuo
Pros:

The view is amazing, don't be stingy and get the best room with a balcony. It's a 30-minute walk to the center, or a 5-minute taxi ride for 10 yuan. Special thanks to Craig, who was very polite and attentive. I'll definitely be back.

Een heerlijk verblijf op een locatie met topuitzicht.
Pros:

Het verblijf buiten de stad maar er toch dichtbij en het personeel. Niks was hun teveel, Craig heeft ons heel goed geholpen met de excursies die wij wilden maken. Ook het boeken van de taxi’s was geen punt.

Cons:

Not

Wunderschönes Haus mit ländlichen idyllischen Charakter
Pros:

Ich habe das Zimmer mit Bergblick bekommen. Das war wunderschön!!! Bergkette und Sonnenuntergang direkt vom Bett aus liegend zu bestaunen. Das Haus ist typisch chinesisch und sehr gut gepflegt, morgens fallende Blätter wegzufegen zum Beispiel und die Hanglage hinter dem Wald ist wunderschön. Die Personal ist super nett.

Cons:

Das Hotel liegt etwas weit vom Zentrum.

Pros:

Helt vildt dejligt og roligt sted. Meget stille og afslappende atmosfære. Hotellet har den flotteste udsigt ud over karstbjergene og Yangshuo by. Personalet er meget hjælpsomme og fleksible - og kan engelsk, hvilket er til stor hjælp. Vi anbefaler glædeligt dette sted.
