Great location on the bank of the Yulong River and beautiful mountains around. If you are looking for a retreat type place in Yangshuo, you can hardly find a better option. Rooms are spacious and nicely designed. All have a nice view. Bath tub in the middle of the room and big balcony with tatami type sofa (you can even sleep on the balcony!) make experience very special. I general, all facilities (lobby, restaurants, outdoor garden area, swimming pool) - all up to five star standard. Staff is probably not as well trained as in international five star hotels, but the attitude (at least in our case) was very good. Upon our request they make additional bedding on the balcony tatami. My friend was sleeping on the balcony and the facade illumination light was disturbing. Upon our request, after a short negotiation they agreed to switch off the whole building facade illumination in order to make us comfortable. And everything was done in a very friendly manner. I was impressed. Breakfast was like in a four star Chinese hotel. But not so bad also. And lack of Western food variety was compensated by a nice outdoor dining area, where you can enjoy your meal while breathing fresh mountain air and watching the river. I would definitely come back there and would recommend the place to my friends.
