Li River Resort

Li River Resort

Yangshuo, China

This family-run hotel is situated a short distance out of Yangshuo on the river road, surrounded by karst peaks on all sides. Rooms here are spacious and sunny, with decor that features natural materials like wood and stone and generously sized windows that offer views of either the mountains or the river. The hotel restaurant serves both Chinese and Western dishes for all three meals.

The hotel’s setting is ideal for guests to explore the scenic countryside or relax and enjoy the swimming pool. It is a ten-minute drive or a 30-minute walk along a riverside path to get back into town. This gives you the best of both worlds — close enough to town to enjoy its facilities, without being subject to the noise from the bars in the evenings.

OUR OPINION:

This is a lovely hotel, full of character, with lots of quintessentially Chinese carved wooden furniture. It also boasts great views of the river below and up into the countryside, taking in the old houses and rice fields.
