Perhaps the BEST guesthouse in China ”

My family and I currently reside in HongKong from USA and we were looking for a place to chill for the weekend without having to fly. We picked Yangshuo because of its newly built Banyan Tree where we planned to stay at first. Somehow we ended up choosing Sudder Street and it was clearly the right choice. We hesitate at first since we've never stay in a guesthouse in China. Didn't know what to expect. Also, guesthouses seem more appropriate for young teens. Neither I nor my family were teens. I'm surprised to find out the owner was a famous book writer in China and he speaks perfect Cantonese, him and his wife (a cheerful Japanese lady)'s love story was written in one of his books. The couple was nice and friendly. Humble folks. Industrial style throughout the guesthouse. Rooms were clean with awesome view. Guests were from around the world, mostly teens. Nice to chat with. Most of them were traveling during their gap year. We enjoyed staying at the Sudder Street guesthouse a lot, perhaps more than Yangshuo itself...

Most Friendly Staffs Ever!”

Yangshuo Sudder Street is an international youth hostel located in the north of Yangshuo city and about 15 minutes walk to West Street. The room is simple enough. No television or any entertaining stuff. All they want you to do is go out to enjoy the fascinating scenery and make new friends. The staffs here are super friendly and helpful. They can give you the most useful suggestions to organise your trip wisely, not only saving your budget but also your time. There is a shared kitchen at the ground floor which closed during the pandemic unfortunately. But plenty washing machines at the 6th level are still provided to all the guests. Lastly, I booked the River Drifting on Long Jing River at the front desk that is the most exciting activity you were ever had. Just bring a towel, clean clothes and pants, then enjoy your ride with all the screams reverberated on the mountain.

Best Guesthouse EVER”

We stayed here for a few days but decided to extend our stay to over one month here. It's that great!!! This is a new guesthouse opened up last year so everything is new and the value cannot be beat. Staff is friendly, helpful and all around very great and can recommend you activities to partake in. Sometimes staff can even take you out on a bike excursion for the day. Mountain view rooms with balcony come highly recommended (for the view of the karst mountains, swimming pool, and ponds; you can even hear frogs at night). The bed is soft, water for shower takes a while to warm up, but stays warm, clean western toilet, no TV (there is one in the common area) and no smoking in the rooms. There is a kitchen facility with utensils, cookware for you to cook and a fridge to store food/drinks which is great. The only thing I want to add is that guests need to clean after themselves in the common area. I noticed quite a bit of people who don't do that. Dining area offers indoor seating to work, write postcards, play board/card games, eat, and chat with other travelers. Location is outside of the hustle and bustle of the city, which is what we like and may be inconvenient for some who may want to be in the middle of all the action. But, the guesthouse offers motorbike taxi and tuk tuk taxi on call. A bus stop is only 3-5 mins. away and can take you to town and the two bus stations departing Yangshuo. Rentals are available as well: Bike (10 CNY/day or FREE after 5pm) and electric scooters (50 CNY/day) and if they run out, they have hook ups at the bike rental shop next to Many People's Inn. For the more adventurous who want to rent a motorcycle (120 CNY/day) or mountain bike (15 CNY/day). The guesthouse offers beverages for sale (water is at cost) and cup-noodles, coffee and tea. There is a local market selling produce at the big gate, just 3-5 mins. walk, restaurants are 10-15 mins. walk downhill towards West St. Delivery from Red Star Pizza and Pizza Papa are also availab

The best service in China”

I have been travelling a lot around the China but the service I got in Sudder Street Guesthouse was the best experience in China! Thanks to the friendliest and the most helpful front desk staff for the outstanding service and the highest quality! You guys made my stay a hundred times better! I'm not even mentioning obvious things such as a pool, nice cafe, amazing view from balcony, nicest and cleanest rooms and the best guests you can wish for! THANK YOU! I'm definitely coming back. Just because of you 😉

good place.”

i stayed here for 2 nights. the staffs were very nice and approachable. they can speak english very well~ if that's your concern. The rooms are very clean and neat. And I have no problems with the toilet and shower too. haha. The distance from the cruise port and the West street is not that far. It's actually a good way for walking exercise when you ate a lot. anyways, would love to stay there if i get the chance to go back to Yangshuo.

Overall very good experience”

Stayed with them 2 nights, then moved to xingping, and moved back to sudder again after that. Met numbers of nice people around. only had a little bad experience with other guest in the same room, not sure what perfume/cosmetic they used which caused the room to be very smelly. solved after kept the window open for few hours. Overall very good stay. and happy to go again if i ever back to yangshuo

The best choice of the town”

It was only 20min walk from the city, but we got to enjoy the quietness of Yangshuo. We booked a balcony room with a tremendous view. A dip into the small swimming pool helped us to cool down when we came back from the busy city. The guesthouse provided bicycle and scooter rental. Staffs were very friendly and helpful.

Wonderful place. Very much recommanded!! ”

This Guesthouse will give you everything you need. No need to look for another one unless you really want to stay outside Yangshuo. Very friendly and well English speaking Staff. Very nice and comfy rooms. All the service you can ask for!

Excellent”

Modern affordable accommodation option with a swimming pool just outside Yangshuo. This means (for now at least) peaceful nights, tranquil rural views (the rear overlooks fields and ponds) and a less touristy vibe (although there are a number of accommodation options nearby). However, this means that West St. is a 25 minute downhill walk. It takes 35 minutes to walk to the tourist parking lot for buses to the Longji rice terraces and an hour to the bus station for buses from Guilin airport. Helpful directions are provided before arrival though. However, for me at least, my main concern was the vibration that could be felt on the 5th floor from the rooftop water tank, which made noises throughout the day and night. The helpful English speaking staff did offer me earplugs and were apologetic about this design flaw, but it meant I didn't sleep well. It must be noted that this is unlikely to be felt on the lower floors.

The best place to stay in Yangshuo!”

The place is only 1.6km from the West Street. Can walk or cycling from there to the West Street. The view from this hotel is amazing! The staffs are very kind and helpful too! Plus they speak english very well. You can feel the ancient chinese feeling through their wood design and decorations. Plus you can peacefully sleeping bcoz its located a bit out of the busy town. The only thing is, they do not have iron. So make sure to bring your own travel iron.

Feels like coming home”

I always come back here. Aside from the simple but clean rooms and facilities and the great location and scenery,, the staff family makes the difference for me. I've come back to the same warm welcome, making me feel like I am coming home every time I come back to Yangshuo..

Friendly staff and comfortable beds”

Had a fantastic stay here - staff were all friendly, helpful and knowledgable who helped with food recommendations, cycling routes and booking of tours. Accommodation was well-decorated; the self-designed double bunk beds were thoughtful with individual curtains and spacious, beds were comfortable and quilt was thick enough to protect you from the wintry cold. Highly recommend to stay at this hostel. It is located a distance away (1.4km) from the main area (West Street), however this is a blessing as it affords you a quiet, peaceful sleep away from the hustle and bustle!

Best value!”

We stayed here for 2 nights and loved it! The room is simple but comfortable. There wasn’t a TV but we didn’t mind since we had a mountain view out of our balcony. The hostel is about 30mins walk away from the start of the West Street which made it Super peaceful. The hostel provides bicycle and scooter rental in the morning with bicycle free of charge after 5pm thus we didn’t have any issue getting to the street. Overall great value and much recommended.

definitely great guesthouse”

very love this guesthouse. the staffs are very nice and helpfull. will stay in this guesthouse if I visit Yangshuo again

Love love so much”

Really love this place. Unique design, clean room, helpful staff, good english staff. They offer free bicycle rental after 5 pm. and also cheap rental price before that time. Very nice view. Sadly the location a lil bit far from west street. But its ok if you are using at least bicycle. Thank You

Nice place, far from the racket”

It’s a nice place full of international people. The rooms are nice and big. The bed is the biggest we have ever seen in our life and very comfy. The facilities are in Good condition: a wonderful pool, a full equipped kitchen, numerous tables and places to relax. You can book in the front desk tours or bikes and motorcycles that they offer there. Also, they have a café where you can order breakfast and cakes all day long. Even the hostel is not located in the center of the town the west Street is reachable walking easily. The neighborhood is quit and calm. Good places to relax after a day exploring the surroundings.

staff speaks good english”

location is a bit far from city, takes about 5 minutes to reach local fresh market, and about 15 minutes walking to west street. open kitchen with electric stove and rice cooker. we didnt swim in the pool because the weather was cold. you can buy drinks from them, at reasonable price. slippers in the room free to use. my only complaint is they charge us extra for 3rd person even though they dont give us anything, no extra pillow or blanket, because they are fully booked, though it's only 30rmb. weather was cold so we didnt use AC. they have washing machine on 6th floor though you have to bring your own detergent. refrigerator only in kitchen.

Very clean and comfy ”

I stayed in a 4 bed room. Very clean and comfortable. Staff very nice and helpful. It is 10 min walking away from Yangshuo center, but it is good Coz the place is quite. I really recomend this hostel.

What a great place to stay”

The staff here were friendly, accommodating and amazing. All the staff, who were on shift, were thoughtful and sincere. I would definitely stay here again when I return to Yangshuo. It is a sanctuary for me.

My Favorite Place”

Staff consistently awesome, facilities are great for the price. My favorite place to stay in Yangshuo.
