Because this hotel was rated 6 on Trip Advisor I had quite high expectations. I was disappointed. We had rooms on the ground floor and I found them to be very average. I imagine the concrete floors are in keeping with Chinese Style building, but they made the rooms seem very cold and sparse. My bathroom was below the stairs... More

We loved this hotel, with its friendly, helpful staff and view of the karst mountains. It felt like a wonderful retreat. We were greeted by name whenever we returned, and we felt so warmly welcomed. We did not have the coveted upper floor rooms with balconies and views (we reserved too late), but our ground floor room was still comfortable.... More

We stayed at Fong Lou for 4 nights recently and had an excellent time. The hotel is in a peaceful quiet area and is clean and comfortable in a rustic style. The staff are very friendly and speak good English. The food in the hotel restaurant is quite good too. Overall, I have only good comments about this hotel, although... More

We stayed here for four nights and wished we had forty more. We had 2 bedrooms on the 3rd floor. One room with two single beds on one side and one bedroom with one queen size bed on the other side of the building with a common bathroom in the middle. Upon arrival we were welcomed with ginger tea by... More

Stayed here for 7 nights in late October. We stayed on the 3rd floor, 2 bedrooms with 2 balconies one at the front of the hotel, one at the back. The hotel is just as it appears on their website. It is amazing to wake up each morning to the faint sound of distant music from the village & look... More

Can't add much to what's been said -- rooms had a feel that was artistic, Asian and minimalist -- in the best sense of all the words. Beds were much softer than in other places we stayed. Great fun just sitting on the balcony watching the street below (not much real traffic, mostly the ubiquitous two and three wheeled vehicles... More

We ended our month long trip to China with 3 nights in Yangshuo. Booking this hotel outside of the city was very relaxing. Quite a change from the crowded cities we encountered. Originally this visit to Yangshuo was for photography. But the smoke from the farmers burning their rice fields and the persistent cloud cover made it less than ideal... More

After travelling from Northern Virginia, and spending a week in Taiwan and Hong Kong, spending four days at Phoenix Pagoda was a much needed break to decompress. The retreat is nestled in a small village of Fonglou, and is surrounded by karst peaks. The retreat provided my husband, my 15 year old son and me with a private shuttle to... More

Me and my girlfriend went for national holidays to Xi'an and Yangshuo. After being surrounded by a huge crowd in Xi'an, Yangshuo was the great place to have a nice and relaxing time. The hotel is surrounded by mountains and far away enough from the highway so you can enjoy your time. In that week the city center of Yangshuo... More
