Song draws from the palette of Eastern aesthetics and the refined taste of classical literati, shaping a lifestyle of Chinese elegant luxury wherever it resides. We believe travel is not merely arrival, but a serendipitous encounter with pleasures and delights. Song treats every guest as the master of the house, turning private spaces, exclusive privileges, and bespoke services into heartfelt comforts. Every Song Hotel is sited amid scenic landscapes and built with Song dynasty garden-making artistry, blending local character with Eastern elegance. Free from worldly cares, abundant in refined pleasures at Song, we await all who are willing to slow down.
With peak forests as screens and emerald waters as mirrors, each villa creates its own realm, hidden in Guilin. Song Hotel Guilin is tucked within the 470,000-square-metre landscape scroll of Sunac Fairyland Show City. Ninety-nine standalone villas are built against the peaks and by the water, the only all-villa hotel within the Huazhu group. The architecture takes cues from the simple character of Dong village houses—grey tiles and wooden structures that do not compete with the landscape. Black swans glide serenely on the lake; their reflections merge with mountains and buildings—it is hard to tell what is real and what is reflection. Dong and Yao ethnic characters meet Eastern quiet luxury; every brick and tile is a painting.
The 192-square-metre one-bedroom lake-view terrace villa welcomes you with a wooden door opening onto your own courtyard. In the living room, a Song-style landscape embroidered mural hangs quietly; solid wood furniture is warm and rustic; ethnic-style cushions weave local warmth. Open the window at dawn to see the lake veiled in mist, with mountain shadows reflected; sit on the terrace at night under a low-hanging starry sky, in the silence of heaven and earth. Two restaurants source ingredients from the Guilin landscape—fish from the Lijiang River, bamboo shoots from the mountains, rice from the fields—transformed into a feast of northern Guangxi flavours. Outside the window, a flowing landscape scroll unfurls; both the food and the view are part of the experience.
If you feel like moving, cycle around the lake, paddle a kayak through the clear waters, or do a handicraft with your children. Sunac Ocean Land, Sunac Water Park, and Sunac Land are all within easy reach; Guilin Liangjiang Airport and Yangshuo are only 40 minutes away. But you may not want to leave. Because this is not just a bed on a journey, but a home among mountains and rivers. Butler service, from the moment you arrive, asks you to do only one thing—be present, and live beside the landscape.
"Ha superato le mie aspettative. Innanzitutto, vorrei elogiare il servizio, che è stato incredibilmente premuroso. Visto che mio figlio era più grande, mi hanno fatto l'upgrade a una camera king con vista sul lago. Dato che il divano si trasforma in un letto, mi hanno persino fornito un set extra di spazzolini da denti, cuscini e pantofole senza nemmeno chiederlo. Un tocco di premura rispetto ad altri hotel. I carrelli elettrici dell'hotel sono disponibili 24 ore su 24, 7 giorni su 7, quindi, ovunque andassi, potevo quasi sempre raggiungerli con una telefonata. Non mi sono sentito trascurato durante i miei due giorni di soggiorno. Il caldo ha messo a dura prova il personale e anche il minibar gratuito è stato molto utile. Vorrei anche elogiare i dintorni dell'hotel: ogni angolo è meraviglioso! Il pacchetto che ho acquistato includeva un trattamento spa e non c'erano extra invadenti e costosi. Ho trovato il servizio genuino! Non ci sono stati momenti di fastidio e l'esperienza complessiva è stata positiva. Se c'è margine di miglioramento, potrebbe essere una migliore manutenzione nei parchi a tema del Sunac. Quando tornerò a Guilin, sicuramente alloggerei di nuovo al Songpin e spero che la qualità del servizio rimanga la stessa!"
