CyanBox Hostel

This place is wonderful. If you're looking for that social, family vibe this is the choice for your stay in Guilin. I ended up extending 2 nights because I was enjoying it here so much. Staff speak good English and will treat you like life long friends. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough.

One of the very few awful moments of our China trip. The staff first played it very friendly with us, but then flat-out lied, claiming budget boats to Yangshuo were sold out, only to push us into pricier options and another night at their hostel. We later discovered plenty of seats were available. When confronted, they suddenly “found” tickets again, at an inflated price. Dishonest, manipulative, and deeply disappointing.

Lovely small hostel with the most helpful and kind crew I’ve ever encountered. Great place to meet people. Definitely recommend!

The best Hostel I’ve ever stayed at the staff was the best especially my girl Anna. I would 100% come back

Have never stayed in a hostel that makes everyone stay there feel like one big family. Super sociable and the organised dinners make it easy to meet people. Shout out to Anna and Ellen for making my time there super fun

Amazing!!!!

Great hostel, people are friendly and it's very social. The kittens were adorable too :). Definitely recommend to stay here when in Guilin.

I had an incredible time at this hostel, the staff were extremely lovely and the atmosphere was very lively and social, 10 stars to ana for being a great volunteer

Love this place. The staff were great and attentive, and the bed was quite comfortable as well. The cats and dog were a nice bonus. I would definitely recommend this hostel!

nice spot, hosts were great and tried to create an atmosphere where people get together

Lovely place filled with lovely staff

Eine fabelhafte Unterkunft. Hab mich wie zuhause gefühlt!! Das Personal war unglaublich nett und hat mich direkt am ersten Tag aufgenommen! Wenn Guilin dann das Hostel!!!

The people who work in the hostel are very sweet, and there is a lively atmosphere, especially for a hostel in China. They organize tours, dinners and are very engaged with their guests. When it comes to hygiene, the hostel could improve. The photos are clearly from a while ago, and it was pretty cold in the common room so people would sit with their jackets on a lot, which gave a weird vibe. Also, we had a cockroach in the room which made the sleeping experience uncomfortable.

Amazing hostel and people 🫶🏻🫶🏻

I just stayed at an amazing hostel where Joe, the host, is incredibly kind and helpful with anything you need. I arrived around 9:30 PM on Chinese New Year and barely had time to drop my backpack in my room before joining the celebrations. I honestly can’t recommend this hostel enough — a perfect 10/10!

I would defo recommend this hostel. The best how to celebrate Chinese new year I could possibly imagine.

Great place to stay! The staff were amazing and so helpful. Clean and tidy, they had dog and cat and kittens!! Bit of a walk from town but taxis are super cheap.

The staff was so helpful and fun! Had a great stay here, met some great people, and got to explore Guilin!

Well located hostel with lots of events and games going on. The place has good laundry and very helpful staff.

I stayed there for 4 nights and really enjoyed my time. Especially the local volunteers make this place feel like a big family. Could have definitely spent more time there just because of the people and the hostel.
