Bus from Guilin North Station to Zen Hotel Guilin

Please advise if there is direct bus to our hotel? Is it easy to find bus at station?

Answered by Amy from MALAYSIA | Nov. 07, 2019 17:37

There should be no direct bus from station to your hotel. You need to transfer on the way. It is not very hard to find bus stand at station, you can use bus No. 100 to go to Beiji Sqaure and then across the street to take sightseeing bus line 1 to Lujiacun. Then you will reach the hotel. If you prefer direct transfer, you need taxi instead. Taxi should take around half an hour on the way.

First class seat on train G1545

Is there first class seat on G1545? I cannot find any seat for any date!

There should be first class seat on G1545, but not sure why they are always not available for sale. Maybe only a few of them. If you booked a second class seat, you may try for an upgrade after boarding. If there is free first class seat, you can pay a difference and change to first class. Wish you a good luck!
