Preface:

The seasons change slowly,

Next, will the weather get cooler?

I used to look forward to it,

The heat ends quickly,

Now, I can't help but feel lonely,

People, how can they be so willful?

It is bordered by the beautiful Li River in the east, the charming Elephant Trunk Mountain in the south, the Seven Star Park in close proximity, and the Fubo and the colorful peaks in the north. It is uniquely located and can be called the "Jiangshan Scenic Spot".

The resplendent Roman-style lobby, the luxurious and unique open-plan sightseeing elevator, the pavilions and waterfalls, the verdant greenery and the elegant scenery of the courtyard garden, and the modern facilities are integrated with the scenery of nature.

Here is the Sheraton Guilin Hotel, an old five-star hotel chain brand in Guilin.

After waiting for a long time, now, in this autumn day, I finally experience her rejuvenation.

I am not lonely, nor am I willful. Waiting is an agreement.

1.

Habit puts sensibility above reason,

Play another ade about parting,

Let the tenderness of the night of missing continue.

Location and Transportation: The hotel is located at No. 15 Binjiang Road, Xiufeng District, Guilin City. It is about 31 kilometers away from Guilin Liangjiang International Airport, about 4 kilometers away from Guilin Station, and about 8 kilometers away from Guilin North Railway Station.

Decoration style: The hotel is located in the central area of Guilin City, sitting on emerald green mountains and the beautiful Li River. As a five-star hotel of an old international chain brand, the main building of the hotel has long been integrated with the surrounding lush green plants and rolling mountains and rivers. The interior has a completely new public space and guest room decoration that incorporate the elegant Guilin landscape elements, which not only has a light and luxurious modern style, but also retains the traditional artistic conception of blue ink and ink painting.

Room view: The height limit of buildings in the center of Guilin is generally a local measure to maintain the harmony between urban buildings and natural landscapes. Although the overall building height of the hotel is limited, due to its large area, the number of rooms still exceeds 400. This time, I experienced a large bed suite with a river view facing the Li River. I pushed open the windows of the living room, main bathroom aisle, and bedroom. I had a wide view. Looking around, I could see that the river stretches and hidden among the camphor trees along the coast, which made people imagine.

The color jumping color matching of the single sofa and recliner feet in the sitting area of the room, as well as the selection of several wall art paintings, not only add a touch of agility to the overall style of the warm and elegant room, but also give the room an additional place to take indoor portraits. Independent space for photos. The living room coffee table is made in a modern and popular simple style. It not only has outstanding storage functions, but also can be used for still life photography.

Cleaning and nursing supplies: This Le Grand Bain cleaning and nursing supplies includes conditioner, shampoo, body lotion, body lotion and soap. It is prepared from the energy essence of bergamot and vetiver that balances the body. The advantage is that it does not contain preservatives and is characterized by cleanliness and moisturizing feeling, which will slowly release and infiltrate the body without being noticed.

Sanitary ware: The shower and shower brand Gauss COSO, and the American Standard brand of toilets, bathtubs, washbasins, and faucets. The products of these brands are always as durable as ever. The shower is quickly heated and constant temperature, allowing every guest to quickly relieve physical fatigue and awaken body functions again.

Smart devices: Smart LCD TV and multi-function Bluetooth wireless stereo LCD alarm clock are enough to meet guests 'basic accommodation and leisure needs.

Supporting facilities: It is recommended to go to the outdoor swimming pool before 10 o'clock or after 16 o'clock. At other times, you can choose the gym next to the pool to do some indoor aerobic exercise. The gymnasium's imported brand fitness facilities include cardiopulmonary training facilities, waist, abdomen, leg and back combined training machines, weight training equipment, treadmills, elliptical machines, etc. Outside the lobby bar, there is also an outdoor garden with pavilions, rockery pools, and lush green plants. Since the lobby bar now also functions as an executive lounge, I recommend checking in to take photos here, whether it is a high-end Marriott member enjoying Happy Hours or an afternoon tea guest. When the setting sun shines on the bar by the window in the lobby bar, a glass of mixed juice will accompany you to spend the colorful afternoon. There will also be a band performance here on weekend nights.

Surrounding entertainment: Staying at a hotel in such a prime location, it is better to come to City Walk in the morning or evening. Recommended destinations are as follows:

Zhengyang Pedestrian Street:

The hotel is a 2-minute walk away. It is located in the city center and has a total length of 666 meters. It is a pedestrian street integrating leisure, shopping and entertainment. Zhengyang Pedestrian Street is also connected to Shangshui Food Street and Miaojie Food Street.

Xiangshan Scenic Area:

The hotel is a 7-minute walk away. Elephant Trunk Mountain is Guilin's Chenghui Mountain. It is named because it resembles a giant elephant standing by the river and stretching its nose to drink the sweet spring of the Li River. In the caves of Xiangshan Park, there is also a wine cellar for Guilin's specialty Sanhua wine.

Sun and Moon Twin Towers:

The hotel is a 5-minute walk away. The Sun and Moon Twin Towers are famous tourist attractions in the water system around the two rivers and four lakes. The Sun Tower is a copper tower and the Moon Tower is a glazed tower. The two towers are connected by a 10-meter-long lake bottom tunnel at the bottom of the lake.

The hotel is a 15-minute walk away. The ancient south gate, also known as the banyan gate, is the south gate of Guilin's "Tang City" and has a history of more than 1300 years. According to the records of the Ming Dynasty's "Yi Tong Zhi":"The Banyan Gate is the ancient south gate. It is said that during the Tang Dynasty, the gate was built and planted with a banyan tree. Over the years, the roots crossed the door and spread across the ground."

In addition to the City Walk route, I would also recommend a must-check guide for Guilin's two rivers and four lakes ring-city water system.

The two rivers and four lakes refer to the Guilin ring-city water system composed of the Li River, Taohua River, Rong Lake, Shan Lake, Gui Lake and Mulong Lake. It is a beautiful ring-city scenic belt in the center of Guilin.

Water tours in Guilin were popular in the Tang Dynasty and prosperous in the Song Dynasty. At that time, Guilin city was densely covered with lakes and ponds. The water system is developed. You can enjoy the scenic spots in the city by taking a small boat. Today, Guilin's two rivers and four lakes and the city water system has regained its former prosperity. Boating the two rivers and four lakes has become the first choice for Chinese and foreign tourists to visit Guilin's Urban area.

Guilin is a typical landscape city, and natural landscapes are the basic elements of Guilin's urban landscape. The Two Rivers and Four Lakes Scenic Area truly embodies the wonderful scenery of "thousands of peaks standing around the wild, and one water embracing the city flowing" and the harmonious landscape of "the city is in the scenery, the scenery is in the city". As a classic tour route in the center of Guilin City, tourists can take a boat to admire more than ten traditional famous mountains such as Elephant Trunk Mountain, Fubo Mountain, Diecai Mountain, Qixing Mountain, Yao Mountain, Lao Man Mountain, Baoji Mountain, etc. on both sides of the Li River, as well as the relics on the banks of the Peach Blossom River, Hongqiao Dam, Zhuzi Archway, One-legged Pavilion and other scenic spots. You can also visit the Chinese classical gardens-Rong Lake Scenic Area, the ecological garden where man and man are integrated-Guihu Scenic Area, the Song Historical and Cultural Park-Mulong Lake Scenic Area. Enjoy the World Famous Bridge Expo Park, Famous Flowers and Famous Tree Expo Park, Pavilion Expo Park and Sculpture Expo Park in the scenic area. At night, the bright artistic lights highlight the elegant artistic conception of colorful, dreamy and infinite reverie. It allows people to understand the harmonious unity of the city and the mountains and rivers, and understand why there is an exclamation in the world that "I would rather be a Guilin person than a god."

Tips：

Bus No. 2, 16, 23, 33, and 88 can reach Wenchang Bridge Pier, and Bus No. 2 can reach Riyuewan Pier and Zhiyintai Pier. To avoid missing the boat, please arrive at the designated terminal 20 minutes before departure.

Time, price, and specific cruise ship routes will vary depending on the season, and the specific situation will prevail on the day.

2.

When people are eager to explore the unknown universe,

But I indulge in the afternoon with you.

Buffet breakfast: In Guilin, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a bowl of Guilin rice noodles. If there is, then let's have another bowl of spicy food. The Yachin Atrium Cafe on the second floor of Sheraton Guilin Hotel serves buffet breakfast and dinner. Unlike other hotel restaurants, Yaqin Cafe is completely open. Breakfast is rich in variety, including Chinese hot dishes, Western-style snacks, hot tea, coffee, milk, and juice. Coffee can be taken out. Guilin rice noodles and sausages are particularly recommended. Sausages are made by adding yuba, fungus, chopped green onion, vermicelli, peanut kernels, tofu skins, etc. into rice paste, and boiling them together. It is similar to the non-spicy version of Hu spicy soup. You can add your own dried chili powder, pickled mustard, etc. In addition, the glutinous rice chicken steamed has both the fragrance of lotus leaves and the delicate chicken. The beef patties are crispy and delicious, and the meat filling is mellow.

Business hours: Monday to Friday 0630-1000, Saturday and Sunday 0630-1030.

Afternoon tea: If you just want to stay in the hotel, you must remember to enjoy an afternoon tea for two in the lobby bar on the first floor like me, which is quite rich, including: 2 McNugget chicken wings, 2 tomato shrimp tarts, 2 meat sauce cheese tarts, 2 marinated salmon cheese rolls, 1 popcorn, 2 exploded vanilla fruit puffs, 2 mango bavalais cups, 1 blueberry cheese cake, 1 matcha banger cake, 1 lemon cake, 1 strawberry ball, 1 green tea buffet, 1 colorful fruit cup, 2 summer sugar ice cream. The mixed juice is sweet but not greasy, and the desserts are stylish and delicious, with fresh meat and crispy fried food.

But one thing to say, I must remind you not to eat too late, otherwise if you eat too much, it may affect your combat effectiveness for buffet dinner later.

Buffet dinner: Maybe the buffet dinner at Sheraton Guilin Hotel has always been too popular with locals, so when I booked a seat, the hotel staff specifically reminded me to arrive at the restaurant before 18:00. I would also like to remind you here.

The conclusion of the personal test is that the dishes are indeed practical and attentive, and the dishes will be adjusted according to the daily rotation of ingredients in the current season. Seafood sashimi such as conch, shellfish, prawns, and salmon; grilled meats such as steak, lamb chops, oysters, scallops, squid, tenderloin, chicken wings, and longly fish; steamed hot dishes such as sea snail, green snail, squid, prawns, crabs, hand-beaten beef meatballs; salt-roasted chicken, roasted duck, roasted pork, red sausage and other stewed vegetables; stewed soup cups such as ginkgo old duck soup, clear stewed turtle soup, and freshly cut beef tongue and pork belly delivered to the seat. There are so many delicious. There are even ice cream balls and a Boston lobster baked with cheese for everyone who holds the show every night.

Business hours: Friday, Saturday and Sunday 1800-2100.

In addition, Cathay Cathay Chinese Restaurant on the first floor of the hotel: provides Guilin local and Cantonese cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, banquet services and various large-scale conference receptions. The Yun·Wei Restaurant on the 7th floor of the hotel has an open kitchen and an invincible river view of the Li River. It is mainly used to hold small banquets and surprise parties. It also supports personalized customization. Do you want to create a romantic surprise for your loved one? Consider it at Sheraton Guilin Hotel?

Conclusion:

We wake up together and breathe together,

We grieve together and work together,

We traveled together and traveled around the world.

Dreams that have not yet been realized,

Let the wind of time,

Blow slowly.
