Hotels near Longji Rice Terraces, Guilin

We arrived at the train station in Guilin, planning to go to the Rice terraces by bus or taxi. However, because we don't know Chinese, we didn't know exactly all the details of the route (we did everything at last moment, don't repeat). So we booked this hotel at the last minute, largely because May speaks English. Almost immediately she helped us with a taxi at a good price. It turns out that if you call Didi to the village, you have to pay the taxi driver to enter the rice terraces, as most drivers don't have one. Pingyang is a very authentic village, there were minimal tourists in the village when we visited, for us it was an amazing experience. We decided to stay for two nights, to enjoy the mountain views and the fresh clean air. May is a true angel, we trusted her 100%, she helped us in so many situations. The hotel lobby with stunning wood furniture, unbelievably beautiful! Tourist tip: Come to Pingan, stay overnight and hike to Dazhai early in the morning. Enjoy the views and the silence. Have lunch in Dazhai and take a car back to Pingan.

Place is great, owner lady extremely friendly and helpful. She was always there with great advice about trekking routes. We had a delicious breakfast which we were offered for free! We also had a dinner everyday and the food was amazing! We would love to have a chance to visit this place once again!!!

Very nice renovation, lovely views

Location wise it is just perfect for us 3 seniors. We were met at the parking lot by the owner herself. We got our bags carried up in a little carry on bike. We just need to walk up a bit. Good exercise. The hotel was just perfect. Beautifully set up with careful plannings & antique looking like decorations. We had all our meals at the hotel. Authentic taste & delicious. We just love the home brew rice wine that goes well with our dinners. Thank you to Mr. & Mrs. Gu . You make us feel guests to your own home. The view from our room balcony was just perfect.

All was really nice, the only thing which could be improved would be to have cot available for little baby

The boss aunty is such a darling! Capable, quick on her feet, so helpful and lovely! We love coming back to her lovely home cooked meals after a day out on the slopes ((:
