Courtyard by Marriott Liuzhou Sanjiang
An indoor pool near Sanjiang Drum Tower
About this hotel
This property sits apart from the rest of Guilin's indoor-pool list geographically, six minutes by taxi from Sanjiang Drum Tower rather than clustered around the downtown Zhengyang Road core the way most of the others are. That makes it a better fit for a traveler whose itinerary already runs through the wider Sanjiang region than for someone planning a pure Guilin-city stay. The indoor pool itself carries the same year-round reliability as the other properties in this list, usable regardless of the humidity or cold outside. The perfect 10 rating stands out on paper, but it rests on only eight reviews, a genuinely thin sample next to Guilin Park Hotel's 124, worth factoring in before treating the score as a settled fact rather than an early impression.

- Accessible
- Full-service laundry
Our take
This suits travelers whose trip already includes Sanjiang Drum Tower or the surrounding region, less so someone looking for a pure downtown Guilin base. The perfect rating is encouraging but the eight-review sample means it could shift meaningfully as more guests weigh in. Anyone wanting a deeper track record should compare it against Guilin Park Hotel's much larger review base before booking.
- ✓Confirm the route to downtown Guilin before booking, this property sits closer to Sanjiang Drum Tower than to the city's main sights.
- ✓Read the eight existing reviews carefully rather than relying on the rating alone, the sample is too small to treat as fully settled.
- ✓Use the six-minute taxi to Sanjiang Drum Tower for an easy outing that doesn't eat into a full day.
Why we love it
- Six minutes by taxi from Sanjiang Drum Tower

Why guests love itGuests who end up at Courtyard by Marriott Liuzhou Sanjiang are usually already headed toward the wider Sanjiang region rather than treating downtown Guilin as the main draw, and the six-minute taxi ride to Sanjiang Drum Tower reflects that. The indoor pool performs the same steady, weather-proof role it does at every other indoor property in this guide, a reliable swim rather than a scenic centerpiece. The perfect rating is worth noting, but with only eight reviews behind it, it reads as an early impression rather than a settled verdict.
