Homestays in Xingping

A very special place. Having come from a couple of weeks in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, Langshi village was a wonderful contrast. Felt very welcome and at ease wandering about the village and the local area. The scenery is literally breathtaking and the walks in amongst the karst hills near the village quite remarkable. Laojia itself is a charming house - clearly a huge amount of work was done to restore the house in a traditional manner and yet to make it a comfortable and calming place to stay. As is often the case however, it was the people who made the experience particularly special: Haibo was the most delightful host - he made all the arrangements for out transport to and from Langshi without a hitch and helped us make the most of our time in the village. Xiaomo (?) cooked us some excellent meals and kept smiling at our incompetent attempts at the occasional phrase in Manadrin as did Haibo's mum when she took us up the hill to where she tends the goats (that is a trip well worth doing). I should also mention Amy, who was really helpful in the way she communicated so clearly before we went to make sure everything ran smoothly.

We had an amazing experience at the guesthouse. The atmosphere was very warm and the design of the place is beautiful and quite unique. The owner and his team were super friendly and took the time to show us the farm and to arrange a trip to see the sunset, a tour on an e-scooter and a very lovely brunch. We could have stayed forever !

An absolutely wonderful hotel in the heart of Yangshuo Old Street. The narrow facade is one large room in width, from which there is access to a small courtyard, from the courtyard there is another room (it serves as a dining room for breakfast, breakfasts are excellent), then a staircase to the top (there are just rooms for guests), and then a kitchen-type room, from which there is access to the other side of the building. That is, a series of rooms runs through from the front facade of the building to the back. There are many pots of flowers at the entrance, including this lively, blooming and wonderfully smelling gardenia. In the first room, where any guest enters, there is a coffee shop where delicious coffee is brewed (including served for breakfast). The video, however, shows everything. In addition to the hostess of the hotel (sometimes, especially after sunset, her husband comes), the guests are greeted by a kind, red-haired, like a fox, dog. There is another, already large, dog in the backyard , but it is kept in a booth, it is watchful and serious. There is a free laundry room in the room upstairs, and next to it is a room where 4 cats live, all completely different colors and breeds, wonderfully beautiful, and there the whole room is equipped for them, they have sun beds, toys… The breakfasts are excellent and classic (scrambled eggs, bacon, bread toast, croissants, bananas and melon, orange juice). And coffee, real and delicious. I was genuinely surprised that finding delicious coffee in China wasn't a problem at all. Moreover, it tastes better than in Moscow (and in Moscow coffee is delicious, you won't find it anywhere else in the world, except in Sumatra, Bali and China). Even in the Chinese province there are coffee shops where, for example, delicious osmanthus latte is brewed.

The hotel is beautiful and the staff very helpful. The room was spacious and very comfortable. We had both the western and chinese breakfast and were delicious. We could also put the laundry ourselves and free of charge. Would definitely come back!

Everything was perfect, the room is comfortable and clean, has beautiful mountain view. They have electric bike for rent also, the owner is very helpful to take care of recharge of battery etc. Good location just next to the river, easy to be around everywhere with the e bike. Highly recommend 👌

The service provided by Lili was attentive and excellent. She offered me options to make the most of the city and responded quickly to my questions (she speaks excellent English). I thoroughly enjoyed my two days there. The room has a beautiful view. The neighborhood is nice and close to the river and the markets.

An Unforgettable Stay I cannot recommend this place enough! This lodge is definitely a true hidden gem. It’s conveniently located at the heart of Yangshuo’s downtown, closed to the famous shopping street, Xijie Street, and all other famous attractions. The rooms are beautifully designed in modern comforts, spacious, and clean. The bed was extremely comfortable and most stunning thing is “there is an elevator!!” inside the lodge. We did not have to walk all to way up to 6th floor. We just had more than we expected and needed for a perfect stay. The host is a lovely couple and they are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with any request. They are also professional tour guides and help planned our itinerary to explore and experience the Yangshuo local attractions. They made us feel like part of the local family and complete our travel effortless. All in all, this lodge is absolutely fantastic. If you are looking for a decent retreat with exceptional services and a genuine local experience, this is the place to be. We’ll definitely be returning!!

Super clean, beautiful interior, perfect location, right in the city centre where you wanna be. And an amazing host! Had a perfect time here.

very helpful staff, great balcony view, clean and comfy bed, nice Chinese breakfast:)
