Central Palace Hotel Guilin

Central Palace Hotel Guilin is a mid-range hotel on East Jiefang Road in Xiufeng District, in the centre of Guilin, Guangxi, China. The road runs close to the Li River and to Zhengyang Pedestrian Street, so the hotel puts guests within walking distance of the old town's main restaurants, shops and the riverbank. The Sun and Moon Twin Pagodas on Shan and Gui lakes, part of the Two Rivers and Four Lakes circuit, can be reached on foot or by a short taxi ride, and Elephant Trunk Hill lies further south along the river. The hotel is a conventional central property, with Standard Room and Deluxe Room categories, wifi, air conditioning and a restaurant. Rates follow the typical Guilin four-star level of roughly 425 yuan (about 63 US dollars) per night. Its guest reviews are among the strongest in the city: it is rated 9.8 out of 10 on Trip.com from about 4,900 reviews, equal to about 4.9 out of 5, which indicates reliable standards of cleanliness, comfort and service. The on-site restaurant gives guests a convenient meal option, and the surrounding streets offer Guilin rice noodles, beer fish and other regional dishes at a range of prices. Pool, spa and fitness facilities are not listed in the available information. The service character is that of a good-value city hotel where the central location and dependable service are the main selling points, rather than resort-style amenities. The front desk can usually advise on Li River cruises, which depart from piers south of the city, and on bus or taxi connections to Yangshuo and the Longji rice terraces. Because the area is busy, requesting a higher floor can help with noise. The proximity to the river makes an evening walk along the bank an easy addition to any itinerary.
