A fantastic 2 night stay at Aroma Tea House and wished for longer
Pros:

Fantastic location, relaxed atmosphere. We liked the outside terrace areas to sit and relax.
Good information given at check in and lovely rooms. Particularly liked the tea area in our rooms. Guilin is a fantastic place to visit and Aroma Tea House has that traditional personal touch lacking in the larger hotels. We cannot recommend enough

Cons:

Nothing at al. Fridge in the room would have been nice

El alojamiento perfecto en Guilin
Pros:

La localización es excelente, junto al río y cerca de la calle principal de Guilin (a menos de 10 min andando). Las habitaciones amplias, muy limpias y con una terraza con un tatami chino increíble. El personal es extraordinario; nos ayudaron con todo, muy amables y siempre dispuestas a ayudar. El servicio de masajes chinos es espectacular. Sin duda el hotel al que ir en Guilin.

A museum stay!
Pros:

one of the beat hotela in pur life, in reality is a whole museum worth to see. once you are in, take the stairs up to start seeing the collection and go floor by floor to see unique pieces exposed. the reception team is the best in the world, and the breakfast staff makes you enjoy the views on the 5th floor. Xie Xie once again!

Un hôtel élégant et très bien placé.
Pros:

Juste au bord du lac, sur lequel on a une vue par la très grande fenêtre, et à côté à pied de tout le quartier central touristique. Le coin salon de thé à la fenêtre est très joli et confortable et le thé est délicieux. Le personnel parle anglais et est très aimable.

Pros:

The hotel is an excellent location. You walk out the front door and across the street are broad, tree-lined paths which wind around the multiple lakes of the region. You can reach scenic sites like the Sun and Moon Pagoda, Elephant Trunk Hill, and Ancient South Gate without walking alongside the streets. There are signs pointing you to those places along the route.

The hotel itself is decorated gorgeously. We basically went floor by floor to look at the paintings, sculptures, artifacts, etc. It appeared they may give lessons/demonstrations related to tea, calligraphy, etc., but we were so busy we didn't ask about those opportunities.

Breakfast is very good. Staff will make noodles for you if you want them.

Whenever we looked at the ride hailing app, Didi, there always seemed to be a car available within feet of the front door. Don't submit a request unless your full party is present. When we made our departure trip to the airport, the guy pulled away from the curb opposite the front door as soon as we hit the button.
