Si può dare più di 10? Posto pazzesco, intimo, pulito, in ottima posizione per le principali attività. Personale preparato e con padronanza dell'inglese. Consigliato 100%

Ho portato qui un gruppo di 16 persone (me inclusa) per trascorrere la notte al Yangshuo Secret Garden dopo lo spettacolo delle luci. La struttura è meravigliosa, sembrava un piccolo borgo incastonato nel paesaggio delle montagne, molto silenzioso. Le camere erano grandissime e dotate di tutti i comfort. Inoltre abbiamo avuto la miglior cena di tutto il nostro viaggio in Cina, il tutto pagando un prezzo che - pur leggermente più elevato della media in Cina - è veramente irrisorio per gli standard europei. Ho voluto complimentarmi personalmente con la direttrice dell'albergo, e consiglio caldamente a tutti di trascorrere qui almeno un paio di notti. Tutto il gruppo è stato molto soddisfatto della scelta da me fatta, e non posso che consigliarlo a tutti
The atmosphere, the staff who gave excellent advice and provided attentive service

Beautiful and respectful renovation of ancient buildings
Authenticité du lieu, accueil chaleureux. Merci.

The staff were super friendly and helpful and fluent in English, and the Chinese food was very tasty (the preserved beans especially!). The property sits back from the main road and so it's very quiet and peaceful and the outdoor areas between the different buildings are really charming. The rooms are well proportioned and the air-con was a relief to get back to after a day out in the heat and humidity. Didis were never more than three minutes away once booked.
I found the room I was in a little dark but as I was out most of the day, it didn't really matter so much. A mini fridge might have been useful to keep milk and medication but we only stayed two nights so it was fine.
Everything!! This has been one of our favourite places since travelling around the world. The staff are incredible and made our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. The design and layout is so lovely, it doesn’t feel like you’re staying at a hotel but at someone’s home. Having a wide range of food at the restaurant was also very welcome. I even got sick and they arranged the local doctor to come who was wonderful.

Luogo meraviglioso fuori dal traffico immerso nella natura e nel silenzio. Vicino al fiume dove è possibile affittarsi una bici e pedalare per 20 km. Meravigliosa esperienza. Ci ritornerei!!

Lovely building full of character with very helpful friendly staff. Unusual for us we ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel and the food was very nice with Western and Chinese options. Rooms were also very nice with separate sitting facilities. All in all a very enjoyable stay in a very pretty location. Getting to Yangshou centre took about 20 mins which was very easy using the DiDi app.
Nothing we really enjoyed our stay and had no issues.
Fantastic boutique place, nice rooms and shared spaces. Exceptional attention to comfort and good location and access to tourist destinations.
Nothing. I will definately come back here.
We loved the peaceful location and historic buildings - much more charm than other hotels around Yangshuo and worth travelling out for. The staff spoke good English and could not have been more helpful, and the food was excellent.
The hotel is immerged in the green and the staff is very friendly and helpful. We felt among friends. You can reach many places by bike or scooter.
Stunning architecture and gardens/courtyards. The staff were really friendly and helpful. We rented bikes from here which made it super easy to get around the sites near the river. They also helped to arrange for us a private car to return to Guilin with some scenic stops. Food was super tasty. Would definitely stay here again.
We were there in winter and room was freezing cold with noisy air-conditioner to try and warm room unsuccessfully. Bed was uncomfortably hard. We stayed out all day and did not look forward to returning to hotel. Location was distant from town. I suppose it meant we witnessed country life
很美丽的秘密花园,古色古香,拍照很出片👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The property is a collection of lovely heritage stone houses and courtyards in a traditional Ming dynasty village. We had a large, two storey suite with balcony and private terrace! Warm and welcoming staff, and great food in the restaurant! Bicycles to rent, and lots of helpful advice about activities in the area.
The hotel is authentic and absolutely beautiful, it’s located in a quiet, quaint town away from the chaos, but this does mean that everything is a little far away - however, it’s all easily reachable by a Didi or scooter ride. The room was spacious and very comfortable. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I also had a delicious meal at the restaurant onsite.
There is a wonderful athmosphere in the pertectly restored original rural stonehouses, that now has been turned into a hotel. We fully enjoyed our stay here. The administrator and her stage where very helpful and attending

Prachtig, stijlvoll guesthouse op een rustige locatie. Goeie rurale uitvalsbasis voor alle activiteiten rondom Yangshuo
El sitio es precioso, el personal es increíblemente amable. Muy buena ubicación para dar paseos en bicicleta por el río. Tanto el desayuno como el resto del menú están buenísimos.
Sehr ruhig mitten im grünen. Kein Lärm nur das Zirpen von Grillen.
Traditionelle chinesische Architektur
Très bel hôtel dans des locaux anciens bien rénovés. Personnel adorable qui organise sans problème nos visites, déplacements ou activités comme une visite de marché ou un cours de cuisine dans un joli village pas loin. Bon restaurant.
Lit un peu ferme
het is een sfeervol hotel, mooie kamers, gezellige tuin, vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Het eten is goed. Het is er rustig. Kortom: we hebben genoten van ons verblijf,
niets.
The manager went out of her way to make us feel welcome and to enable us to enjoy the place fully.

Peaceful setting, enchanting traditional style building & excellent service.
Bumped our heads on the low doorways a few times!
Sono stata così poco che non posso dare un giudizio anche se la struttura non era rispecchiava molto le immagini
La colazione: era compresa nel pacchetto peccato che solo una volta arrivati in hotel abbiamo scoperto che la sola colazione inclusa era cinese e se volevamo quella occidentale dovevamo pagarla! Peccato che questo non scritto!!!Abbiamo così deciso di prendercela fuori perché era più economica che in hotel!
Sehr schönes und idyllisches Hotel. Ein sehr freundliches, hilfsbereites und engagiertes Team hat uns begrüßt. Die Rezeption hat unsere Reisewünsche unkompliziert und umsichtig umgesetzt.
Posto bello e tranquillo.. il personale è stato da subito disponibile e ha reso il nostro soggiorno molto piacevole
Nice decorated house, very friendly staff. Goodfood
a bit outside of the city
I have beeb to the secret garden now a few times over the last 10 years or so. Yanshuo and yulong river area have changed heaps over the years, here i still find peace and quiet. Villagers were planting rice. The locals gather at the river in the evening to cool down. On an electric scooter you can easily explore les touristy areas. The staff was really helpful. The western treats at restaurant made my day.
Everything was nice. The staff is very nice and helpful. The place is beautiful. The location in the contryside is very good.
Nothing.
It is a well-restored, charming 150-year-old complex of houses. The staff is friendly, helpful, and professional. They helped us hire a minibus to take us on a sightseeing tour.
A gorgeous hotel, built from a collection of old houses in one of the ancient villages along the Yulong river. It's completely charming, quirky and perfect for exploring Yangshou. The restaurant serves well priced, generous portions of local and western food and the breakfast choices were great too. They have bike hire on the property, perfect for exploring the river bank and stunning scenery, and the staff speak good English and are keen to recommend things to do in the area We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend, especially if you want a more authentic experience.
Our stay at Yangshuo Secret Garden was simply unforgettable. Nestled just outside the center of Yangshuo, this charming B&B is a beautifully restored traditional property, built with stone and wood, which gives it a truly authentic and peaceful atmosphere. Surrounded by picturesque canals and lush greenery, it’s the perfect base for exploring the region. The guesthouse offers bicycle rentals, which we highly recommend—riding through the nearby villages and along the canals was a highlight of our trip. One of the best experiences we had was the cooking class offered by the property. It was fun, informative, and delicious—a must-do! There are also plenty of other activities to choose from, like bamboo rafting and exploring the countryside. The owners were incredibly helpful, even assisting us with booking tickets for the Impression Liu Sanjie light show from Italy, before our arrival. The onsite restaurant is another big plus: they serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with both local and Western options available. Everything we tried was fresh and flavorful. If you’re looking for a quiet, authentic, and activity-filled stay in Yangshuo, Yangshuo Secret Garden is the perfect place.
Very beautiful hotell and surroundings! Located a bit outside Yangshuo in a very quiet area. You need to take a taxi to get there, but it's absolutely worth it.
Lovely place, in a quiet part of Yangshuo. Staff were absolutely incredible! Good restaurant on site. Comfy rooms.
A gorgeous, quirky property . Staff were so helpful and friendly. A great stay!
WiFi only worked next to reception / restaurant but to be honest it was nice to switch off from social media.
This is a very special hotel - a whole series of buildings built around courtyards and paths full of plants. The indoor and outdoor restaurant was a lovely place to eat. The dinner was very good. We chose vegetarian local dishes which seemed like a contemporary take on traditional cooking and were delicious. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
A small inside another small village; pebble stone alleys, a cat that stare at you, all surrounded by the catch Guangxi hills. A mágic stay in the countryard, along from the Yangshuo mess, but connected by Tuk Tuk, bycicles or electric motorbikes at downtown. The warm welcome of the sweet reception ladies, the enormous, rustical rooms, the grey stone, the flowers spread everywhere will let you stay like in your own house. Great experience at a stunning low price
Lovely location, fantastic staff and delicious food. I will be back again
Nothing
Beautifully restored old village buildings, comfy rooms, wonderful staff and excellent food. Close to Yulong river for cycling and rafting. It’s one of the best hotels in the area if you want something a bit different and more memorable.
Nothing
Peace of heaven. Very relax atmosphere and quiet. Location outside busy street , middle of normal life. I liked a lot.
Everything! The Secret Garden is magic- Location, staff, layout of the different areas of the 'hotel'. Food and the serenity. Magic. The tours and private driver were great and also being to walk around the local village and watch daily like go by was part of the magic.
There was nothing that we didn't like- NOTHING!
This is a brilliant place to stay. The hotel and the staff are lovely and the staff could not have been more welcoming or helpful. A really great hotel ! I will be back.
Veldig fint sted. Koste oss mye.
Very comfortable stay and excellent service and food. Rebekah and Molly at the front desk took very good care of me and welcomed me especially as a solo traveller.
Secret Garden Yangshuo, Jiuxian Village, is a wonderful place near the dragon river and moon bridge. Great menu and staff are super friendly and kind. Can arrange pickup from airport or station for a reasonable fee!
Beautiful building and sorroundings, excellent food, overall had a great stay. Highly recommended to international visitors and first timers as the staff will take care of everything for you. A special thanks to the girl at the reception who spoke excellent English and really went out of her way to help me.
The bathroom could do with some heating
This was by far one of the best hotels we stayed at in China. Tucked away in the lush and peaceful landscape, a beautifully restored courtyard with clean and comfortable rooms as well as delicious food (both Chinese and Western). The English-speaking staff was very helpful and assisted with pick-up from Guilin train station, bike rental, sunrise trip to Xianggong mountain etc. There are a few cafés and restaurants around, but no shops. The busy (and somewhat touristy) Yangshuo city center is a 10km bike or taxi ride away. However, we deliberatly opted for mostly staying around the hotel, walking along the river and through the hills. Would definetly recommend!
Fantastic hotel with a lots of historical character and very friendly staff. The owner is lovely and we enjoyed listening to the stories of how the hotel was ideated and built. So much thought has been put in every detail and they really managed to bring the old village houses and courtyards back to life :) Food was delicious and well priced. Location is perfect - very calm and relaxing, yet waking distance to the river and a number of coffee shops/small restaurants. Thank you for a lovely stay - we will be back for sure!
Great place for holidays with family. The hotel has several nice corners to relax and it is close enough to many tourist destinations. Special note to the staff, who is lovely and always very helpful
Lovely stay. Only stayed here for one short night but wished we could have stayed longer. Beautiful charming place in an old restored building. Nice area along the Yulong river. Yummy food and resto has a nice terrace. We went back the next day for dinner;) Room is clean and spacious. Staff is helpful and friendly.
