Hotels near Longji Rice Terraces, Guilin

We arrived at the train station in Guilin, planning to go to the Rice terraces by bus or taxi. However, because we don't know Chinese, we didn't know exactly all the details of the route (we did everything at last moment, don't repeat). So we booked this hotel at the last minute, largely because May speaks English. Almost immediately she helped us with a taxi at a good price. It turns out that if you call Didi to the village, you have to pay the taxi driver to enter the rice terraces, as most drivers don't have one. Pingyang is a very authentic village, there were minimal tourists in the village when we visited, for us it was an amazing experience. We decided to stay for two nights, to enjoy the mountain views and the fresh clean air. May is a true angel, we trusted her 100%, she helped us in so many situations. The hotel lobby with stunning wood furniture, unbelievably beautiful! Tourist tip: Come to Pingan, stay overnight and hike to Dazhai early in the morning. Enjoy the views and the silence. Have lunch in Dazhai and take a car back to Pingan.

I like everything about this hostel, everything super clean , hostel owner is super helpful, view also amazinggg , you can see the rice terraces next to the hostel, food also yummy. Thank you so much for this amazing experience 💚💙

Very nice renovation, lovely views

Jason and his wife are lovely and helped us to arrange a taxi from Guilin to Ping An and also to our next location. The hotel is at the entrance of the village, few meter away from the parking. It is very pretty, all in wood. The room was clean and smelled the nice smell of the wood. The view on the rice fields and the mountians was just amazing ! It was a very relaxing stay at the Baike hotel. We would definitly go back there if we come back to LongJi.

I loved everything about this place: location, views, organisation, food, but most importantly the amazing people who work there. Truly simple in the best sense and pure experience of China at its best. Go for a couple of nights at least and don’t miss their braised tofu!

We arrived at 1.00 am and were still welcomed very friendly by the staff. The family room is spacious with beautiful furniture that suits the building, great view! We had dinner twice and really enjoyed it, especially the stuffed tofu is delicious. Summer and her family are great hosts, Summer helped us with transport and was available for us at any time. Also, the location- on the ridge- at the end of this authentic village has to be mentioned. In the evening, with all the day tourists gone, the tranquil vibe and peace are amazing.
