Yangshuo Village Inn
Located in the heart of Moon Hill village in beautiful Yangshuo China, this charming family-run hotel offers guests
stunning views from eight beautifully decorated rooms and an unforgettable rooftop dining experience.
They offer an excellent alternative to staying in Yangshuo town. With shady pomelo groves, mud brick houses and
sub-tropical forest surrounding the guesthouse, this is a nice getaway from noisy downtown.
The owners are rightfully proud of being the first boutique hotel in Yangshuo, as well as one that contributes to
sustainable tourism. In their guestroom design, they have focused on creating an intimate feeling,
and one that reflects both the minority and Han culture of Yangshuo.
In addition, they exclusively use solar hot water and recycled wood products in the rooms, as well as natural gas.
Unlike other Yangshuo hotels, they do not burn any coal. In their guestrooms you will find all the furniture is
custom made from local bamboo - the most sustainable wood available.
