The Universal Hotel is located in Guilin, and is conveniently situated for quick access to transport - only 28km (40 minutes) from Liangjiang Airport, and 10 minutes, or 4km, from the railway station.
But once you reach the city of Guilin, you’ll be sure to want to stay and explore it’s stunning sights and historic treasures.
The city earned its name as ’the pearl of China’ through its many unmatched natural beauty spots and strong sense culture, built on more than 2000 years of Chinese history. The cultural life of the city still thrives and is enriched by the many ethnic minorities represented there - including the Zhuang, Yao, Hui, Mulao and Dong people.
Li River, a feature of the view from the hotel’s windows, runs zigzag through a beautiful hillscape against a backdrop of mountain peaks, rare vibrant flowers and green hills. Surrounding the city thes sea shores ’frame’ the idyllic scene and complete the relaxing ambience you’ll feel when you soak up the sights of Guilin.
Being so close to the river, we also recommend you take time to visit the Nine Horse Hill, an ancient natural point of interest made up of stunning range of cliffs on the banks of the river. It has been said to be a vivid shape of nine horses in different positions since the city’s birth.
For a true sense of Chinese culture, an optimum spot to start your journey into Chinese history, Guilin is a must - and for an equally strong sense of comfort and homeliness, the Universal Hotel is too.
