Great location, great views from the rooms, close to night market and restaurants, friendly staff and helpful English speaking reception. Secure hotel in a secure area of the city. Ready supply of taxi's outside all the time. Negatives would be room layout, and slightly noisy plumbing.

For once a true 4 star hotel in China. It's 2 main assets are 1) Its location. Not only is it beside a great lake with gardens and paths along the lakeside, but it is also around the corner (a short walk around the block) from the large night market, and a number of good restaurants - including two good...

We were pleased to be staying at a hotel directly opposite the lake. Within minutes we could be walking along the path around the lake on our way to the central area of town. The walk is safe to undertake day or night. The staff were helpful even though in some cases their English was limited. The room was spacious... More

Upon arrival we discovered the Guilin Bravo was dated, a little shabby, and very hurried (due to an abundance of tour busses). But by the end of our stay we realized it was a good place to spend our one-night stopover in Guilin. Our room was clean but old, tired and had a distinct musty odor that was somewhat masked... More

Good for a laugh. Breakfast was quite bad. They have a huge hall for Chinese tourists and its a mess. More like a wet market... More

We stayed overnight during a group tour and were given a magnificent room on the top floor. The furnishings were outstanding and the service was also extremely good. The location was ideal and I couldn't rate this hotel higher. An outstanding visit.

The entire experience in Guilin and this province was exceptional. We had great service, quiet and lovely room and helpful staff and guide/driver. The hotel is well run, geared towards tourists and welcomes the visitor encouraging a relaxing and enjoyable stay. There is a bit of everything...

Unfortunately we had a late flight into Guilin and could not really enjoy this very spacious, comfortable hotel. They offer two separate breakfast buffets - western and asian. We chose the western and everything was excellent and well stocked. I understand that the asian buffet had western choices as well, but we did not try it. The bed was absolute... More

I stayed 3 nights in this hotel - 2 nights the "old" building with excellent view over the lake, and one night at the 'new" block with the newer facilities. Let me get started on the Good view old block review - the room is ok, the bed is not too hard or soft - just nice for us. No... More
