The staff are incredibly friendly, approachable, and accommodating. The variety of food and local options are substantial. Free electric vehicles available to zip around. Wonderful hiking options and a view to come back to. One thing I would recommend against is letting someone else do your personal laundry. My clothes came back damp and I don't think they used laundry detergent. Otherwise, this is a stop I plan to make again annually!

Xiaoming made our stay amazing! He was friendly and welcoming and always available to answer any questions and help plan your stay. The place is beautiful and quiet and relaxing. The room was comfortable and spacious. What great views. The breakfast was perfect and we spent the day using the electric scooter which was super fun. I completely recommend staying here and staying at least two days so you can appreciate the area. We regret not spending more time here. Definitely book here if you have the chance.

Great place in a little outside village, but not too far away to explore all Guilin sites. Perfect to do by electric scooter. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and arranges anything you need. The offered tours are great, as well, so you can see a lot in a short amount of time. If you want to visit Guilin, you have to stay in the Secret Courtyard Hotel!

Excellent stay with helpful hosts

Lovely hotel in a cute village area. The staff are really helpful and friendly with a free laundry service that really helped! Breakfast was basic but lovely and the room was comfortable. It is worth noting that the area here in Guilin is not the area that you see all the bamboo boats etc and famous photos - this is further south in Yangshuo and you can do day trips from the hotel if you don’t want to stay down there.
