Amazing stay at Giggling Tree”
This place was recommended to me by a friend so I chose it to bring my BF on a surprise week-end - as we live in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. It was just perfect, really quick (we arrived Saturday at 11AM and left at 2PM the day after) but so nice! The hotel is wonderful, room charming, bathroom perfect and the all old farm is warm and welcoming. The local staff is absolutely wonderful, every person is helpful, polite and very nice with guests. They also offer a lot of activities and services: we managed to rent bicycles 2 times, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner (just next to the fireplace!) at Gligging Tree, and we even got Chinese massages which were very good. I highly recommend this place and we definitely come back next time we want to escape the city or even bring family and friends discover Yangshuo area.
An enjoyable couple of days”
The Giggling Tree is a nice place to stay and we enjoyed our time there. We did quite a lot of cycling around which we really enjoyed, particularly once we found some cycle paths that were away from the crowds. The room was good - clean and comfortable - and the meals were fine. I was expecting it to be a lot more isolated than it actually is and the area is more touristy than I expected so I was a little disappointed by that but even so, it was a nice place to stay.
Great Area, great place to stay”
The area is great, the pool pretty good to cool down after a day cycling and hiking. There were enough trips to book with the Giggling tree, even they rented scooters So this was great. The food was delicious in the Morning, lunch and evening. Keep up the good work guys! I would recommend this place to everyone.
a la campagne”
très bien placé pour randonner à pied ou a vélo le long de la rivière. Excursions et activités organisées depuis la réception, chambre grande et propre, salle d'eau idem avec une douche sympa.possibilité de se restaurer sur place, c'est très bon mais plus cher qu'ailleurs.Ne pas rater le spectacle de nuit sur la rivière, c'est féerique.
Une étape Bonheur ”
