What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The Sky Bar on the fifth floor looks out over a foreground of sculpted pines and illuminated gardens to the full limestone panorama beyond.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Jiwo Du Village sits within the Ten-Mile Gallery corridor, and the Yulong River is a mile away on foot.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows look out on karst peaks, and select suites add private plunge pools flush against the skyline.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The outdoor infinity pool stretches beside the central lawn, looking straight out toward the surrounding karst peaks.
Restaurant
Yue Shun Ge
The restaurant serves Cantonese and regional Guangxi recipes, with private dining salons looking out on the limestone peaks.
At the table
Tall window walls line the dining room, where tables look out across the garden terraces toward the mountains.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
