Yangshuo Tea House Inn - By West Street and Li River is our Budget pick for Yangshuo. It is a three-star inn with a 9.2 guest score, and it cost 45% less than the sample median in our reference data. It suits travellers who will spend their days outside and want a clean, central place to sleep.
Independent travellers get the most from it. Guests say the team speaks English and helps with luggage, excursions and ticket bookings, which saves time in a town built around day trips. Family rooms are listed too.
Look elsewhere if you need a pool, gym or restaurant. None appear in our data. Listed facilities are short: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, family rooms and a terrace.
Location and getting around
The inn is at 12 Lianfeng Alley in the West Street Commercial Area. Guests rate the location 9.6, and their comments describe it as close to West Street and the river while staying quiet.
Moon Hill is about 6 km away, roughly 75 minutes on foot by straight-line estimate. That is far. Plan on public transport, a taxi or an organised trip to reach it. The staff help with excursions, so ask them how to get there.
Walking times to other sights have not been verified in our data.
What guests say
The score is 9.2 out of 10 from 228 reviews. Even so, it ranked joint seventh of 8 eligible properties in our sample, which tells you how highly rated Yangshuo hotels are in general.
Praise focuses on two things: a central but peaceful location, and friendly English-speaking staff who sort out luggage, tours and tickets.
The main complaint is the climate control. Guests say it is pleasant in warmer months, but the air conditioning does not heat enough on cold nights. Our reference dates fall in November, so ask the hotel about heating or extra blankets if you travel in the cooler season.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
Reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults came to €29.18 a night, against a sample median of €52.73. They are not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Best Value pick, Yangshuo Hidden Dragon Villa, was €48.49 with four stars and a 9.6 score. Our Luxury pick, Yangshuo Li River Resort, was €56.96, also four stars and 9.6.
So the inn saves you about €19 to €28 a night. In return you give up a fourth star and some guest score points. On a short trip, that saving can pay for a river excursion.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 8 eligible properties in Yangshuo. After reserving the upscale choice, this was the lowest eligible reference price, and it still holds a 9.2 score. Cheap and well reviewed is exactly what the Budget slot looks for.
