Not only was the place itself great - comfortable beds, spacious, heated showers, close to the centre - the owner was incredible. David helped us with anything we needed (which was a lot since our transition to china was a bit rocky). He helped us with our Alipay and WeChat, to get a SIM card (and also called the providers and fixed everything when they tried to scam us), exchanged money, booked tours, gave us recommendations, called other accommodations for us, and so so much more. The little restaurant they own under the inn was also some of the best food we’d had during our entire trip (the cucumber salad, dumplings, and fried pork are to DIE FOR 😩). He also gave us some little treats for our anniversary and goodbye gifts :) 10/10 would absolutely recommend this place and we can’t wait to visit again!!

I had an amazing stay at Guilin Cyan Box Guest Hostel! Joe, Ellen, Bob, and the rest of the staff and volunteers were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond—helping me plan my itinerary, organizing group dinners, and even inviting everyone out to the local bar. The social atmosphere made it super easy to meet other travelers and create genuine connections. Whether you’re traveling solo or with friends, this place feels like home. Without a doubt, one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. Highly recommended!

I can't imagine why Booking.com gave this such a low rating, considering the reviews are nearly all good. And for me it was EXCELLENT 10 out of 10. Very comfortable, soft bed, clean, good price, pleasant staff and great location close to the train station.

All hostels in Guilin

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I really like the owner - Luka, and his employee - Lucy. They both speak English fluently and they are very helpful. Hostel is very cheap and located not far from the main attractions. I spent 3 nights in a dorm and I like it. Beds have curtains, so it is easy to separate from others if needed to fall asleep earlier.

    After 1 month in China this was the best Hostel yet. Good Location near the elephant Trunk Hill and a nice breakfast for a small fee. The Coffee and Beer selection was especially extraordinary. The staff helped me with booking Several Tours and showed me around the City.
