I really enjoyed my stay at Kate place in Yangshuo. The location is super central, and you can reach everything quickly by bike or ferry. Kate sent me all the important information, which was very helpful. She is a very friendly and helpful host - on the first evening she even offered me some chocolate and was always available for questions. The room is cozy and has everything you need. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, which is very convenient. I can definitely recommend this accommodation!

Location is great and not far from the main sights of the city. We also rented a scooter provided by the hotel and it saved a lof of time for us. The administrator Kate was very welcoming, open and so nice. She shared the locations we should visit, was very kind and most importantly, she speaks English! We would definetely stay another time here, too.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Yangshuo Jing Yuan Inn! The location is perfect, just steps from the vibrant West Street, yet it feels like a peaceful retreat. The inn itself is charming, clean, and beautifully maintained, offering a fantastic living experience that blends comfort with local charm. Kate, the host, truly made this stay exceptional. Her kindness and hospitality were outstanding—she went above and beyond to ensure I felt at home. From helpful local tips to her warm, guest-oriented approach, Kate made every moment special. The inn’s cozy ambiance and thoughtful touches perfectly complemented Yangshuo’s unique vibe. I highly recommend Jing Yuan Inn to anyone visiting Yangshuo. It’s a gem of a place, and Kate’s incredible hosting makes it unforgettable. Can’t wait to return!

The mattress was quite hard that I had back pain initially when lying down or sleeping. However, it went away after a while.

Amazing property located right across the river to the West Street which you can get to just by taking a ferry for 4RMB. The owner, Kate, is amazing and super friendly! Very helpful, accommodating to requests and gave so local many recommendations on what to do and where to go during my stay. Also had wonderful conversations with her. Had a wonderful stay and would recommend this place to anyone!

The young man running the accommodation was very helpful and shared some local information regarding bikeing in the area. Our room was large with a nice balcony and a relaxing garden area for relazing in. We would stay here again if in the area.

It was all good.

The inn is situated in a quieter area very close to the river. It was a good place to take a relaxing walk and see locals go about their everyday business. The view from the balcony across the river and to the mountains was spectacular. The room was spacious, clean and decorated in an artsy way. Jerry, who is the caretaker of the property is very helpful. He carried my luggage, helped me with my bookings and made sure I wasn't late. Jerry made my stay comfortable and enjoyable.

The toilet in our room was a squat toilet, we both struggled a bit due to our problematic knees. Not sure if this was the case in all rooms but something to be aware of.

Kate the host was amazing. Super friendly and very welcoming, we could of stayed chatting all day. We were offered the option of scooters to get in to town or you can take the ferry which takes a couple of minutes. The room was comfortable with air conditioning. Our balcony provided a great view across the river looking back at Yangshou. The location is not in the main town and sits on the other side of the river. If you have arrived by a cruise boat from Guilin, then there are two option to get to the accommodation. 1. take a taxi, check with Kate what you should pay at the time. 2. Walk south from the cruise boats departure point, through the main town, around the mound and down towards a small non descriptive ferry terminal. I have marked out on the attached picture the route to follow. Allow 10-20mins from cruise departure point. Its easy to do.

Kate and Jerry were very helpful, the room was nice and I particularly loved the interior design. It is a quiet cocoon, ideal to reenergize

The property is close to West Street but in a very quiet area making it the perfect place to stay if you want to avoid the crowd of tourists! Plus there’s a swing in the room 🙂 Kate and Jerry were amazing hosts, recommending very cool spots to visit, they also have electric bikes to lend to travel around the city. They made me feel at home and made this trip extraordinary, highly recommend!

The staff was very welcoming and helped us the time we were in Yangshuo. The inn is located just across the river of the center of town, which made the place quiet and peaceful at nights. The room was big, well decorated and had charming views of the Li River.

Really nice hosts. I loved the location as it is outside of the main center but it didn’t take long to get there. Nice and quiet at the river, crossing it with the watertaxi was easy.

The location is not where it says in booking, it’s in the eastern side of the river. Even though, it’s worth it and great

English speakers in the staff, possibility to rent scooters in the hotel and comfort

The fact that you have to take a boat to get to downtown but the pier is just next to the hotel and the boat goes runs very often.

The hotel is in a quiet area and just next to the pier from where you can take a boat to cross the river in no time into downtown. The room was very nice and the host was very kind and gave me very good information about the area. He has very good english too, very much appreaciated ! :)
