Yangshuo's mountain resorts place you right at the base of the region's karst peaks, many with direct views of the Yulong River. The Yangshuo Resort and voco Guilin Yangshuo by IHG both offer outdoor pools, on-site dining, and easy access to cycling and kayaking routes. Room rates start around $77 per night, with higher-end options like the Yangshuo Ancient Garden Boutique Hotel providing a more immersive experience in the historic village of Jima.
For a quieter stay, consider the Jima area, a 15-minute drive from West Street. The Ancient Garden Boutique Hotel includes free airport or train station pickup for stays over four nights, plus organized activities such as Tai Chi, darts, and bike rentals. Meanwhile, voco Yangshuo, located 82 km from Guilin Liangjiang International Airport, offers family rooms, a fitness center, and a restaurant serving Chinese and Cantonese dishes.
