Lijiang Hotels with balcony

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Exceptional Welcome – Thank You, Mr. Afei! Our stay in Lijiang was made truly special by the incredible hospitality of Mr. Afei. From the moment we arrived, he made us feel genuinely welcome and cared for. Because a room upgrade was available, he kindly offered us a better room, which was a wonderful surprise. He also helped us purchase the tea we were looking for, something we truly appreciated. When we arrived at the entrance of the ancient town, Mr. Afei came to pick us up and helped us get to the hotel with our luggage. Upon arrival, he welcomed us with tea and fresh fruit, almost like a welcome drink, which was such a thoughtful and lovely gesture. He even sent us a message on WeChat with the most important places to visit in Lijiang, making sure we wouldn't miss the city's key highlights. Throughout our trip in China, we had never felt as warmly welcomed anywhere as we did here. Lijiang itself felt like a city that embraced us with warmth, and a great part of that feeling came from the exceptional care and hospitality provided by Mr. Afei. Thank you, Mr. Afei, for making our stay so memorable. You didn't just welcome us to a hotel; you made us feel at home. We will always remember your kindness and the wonderful experience we had in Lijiang. ❤️ Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"

"Stayed here in end Aug where there wasn’t much snow cap on the mountains and a lot of clouds blocking the mountain peaks, but I’d say that the room view is still really nice because there’s sun, lake, mountain, clouds all in one! What we appreciated from this hotel: 1. The views: on day 1, we had afternoon tea (complimentary with our booking) and just enjoyed the view. We also tried to catch sunrise from our bed, and also enjoyed the view over complimentary breakfast at Level 1. 2. The service: this is the most supportive service we’ve ever had among all the hotels in China and other countries we have been to. - transport: They helped us to schedule complimentary pickup transfers from Lijiang train station to the hotel on our first day and from hotel to Lijiang Sanyi airport on our last day. - Taobao: They also helped me a lot with my many Taobao orders, across communicating with the delivery people, collecting (1x a day) from the collection point, returning some items as they weren’t fitting, applying for refund as my parcels still didn’t arrive on the last day etc. - other advice: getting used to higher altitude in Lijiang, how to use the washing machine & dryer, recovering from diarrhoea, whether we can still visit Lijiang Ancient City at night - other hotel items: gave us makeup remover and cotton pads when we had our photoshoot etc. - food: packed breakfast for us when we had day tours that started from 6am and asked us to pick our breakfast if we’re eating at hotel a day before. - housekeeping: they’d ask us if we’d like housekeeping when we waited for our didi to come. For the 6am day tours when reception wasn’t open yet, we texted them for help to tidy the room and we came back to a tidied room when we returned. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Super comprehensive service, we highly appreciated this. 3. Toilet: this toilet has a bidet! We were pleasantly surprised by this. While the area around the hotel is generally still developing, to which one of our Didi drivers said there was growing interest in real estate around the area, among the 3 hotels we stayed in Yunnan so far across Kunming, Dali and Lijiang, this is the best one we have had 😊"

"This was truly one of the best 民宿 experiences I have ever had. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. Two gentlemen welcomed us warmly with smiles and immediately helped us carry our luggage, which included two large suitcases and two small suitcases, all the way up to Level 3. We were also given a complimentary room upgrade because a larger room was available, which was such a thoughtful gesture. After checking in, they patiently guided us through the room facilities and made sure we knew how everything worked. On the first day of our stay, they also prepared a beautiful fruit platter and tea for us, which made us feel so welcomed and well taken care of. Their service hours are from 8am to midnight, but what impressed us most was how much they went beyond that. Whenever available, they also had a driver who could send us to the nearby Lijiang Old Town, making our trip even more convenient and worry-free. The level of care and help they provided is honestly beyond words. They made our entire stay comfortable, smooth, and stress-free. Together with the beautiful scenic views, their outstanding service made us fall in love with Lijiang even more and truly made us want to visit again. On our last day, we had to check out at 7am, which was outside their usual working hours. Even so, the owner personally stayed at the counter and set his own alarm just to help us carry our luggage down. He did not have to do this, but he still went out of his way to assist us. He also helped arrange transport to take us to Lijiang Train Station, which made our departure so easy and comfortable. The service at this hotel is genuinely excellent. I almost have no words to describe how grateful we are for such a wonderful stay. This is the first time I am putting so much effort into writing such a long review for a hotel, and that says a lot about how amazing the experience was. If you are visiting Lijiang, I highly, highly recommend this 民宿. The service, hospitality, comfort, and overall experience are truly top-notch. You have to experience it for yourself. ————————————————— 这是我住过体验最好的民宿之一，服务真的可以说是五星级，甚至远远超出了我们的期待。 从我们抵达的那一刻开始，就感受到他们满满的诚意。两位先生非常热情地微笑迎接我们，并主动帮我们把行李搬到三楼。我们一共有两个大行李箱和两个小行李箱，他们都非常细心地帮忙处理。因为当时刚好有更大的空房，他们还免费帮我们升级了房型，这一点真的让我们感到非常惊喜和感动。 办理入住后，他们也很耐心地带我们了解房间的设施，教我们如何使用房内的设备。入住的第一天，他们还贴心地准备了水果拼盘和茶，让我们一到达就有一种被好好招待、被照顾的感觉。 他们的营业时间是早上8点到晚上12点，但让我最感动的是，他们的服务完全不只是停留在营业时间内。如果司机有空，他们还会安排车辆送我们到附近的丽江古城，让我们的行程变得更加方便，也更加安心。 他们在整个住宿期间给予我们的帮助，真的很难用三言两语形容。无论是服务、态度，还是细节上的照顾，都让我们住得非常舒服、轻松、没有任何负担。再加上这里漂亮的风景和安静舒适的环境，真的让我们更加喜欢丽江，也让我们有了想再回来丽江的理由。 最后一天我们需要早上7点退房，而这个时间其实是在他们的正常营业时间之外。即使如此，老板还是特地留在自己的房间兼柜台，并且设了闹钟起床，只为了帮我们把行李搬下来。其实他完全可以不用这么做，但他还是非常主动、非常贴心地帮助我们。除此之外，他还帮我们安排了前往丽江火车站的交通，让我们整个退房和离开的过程都非常顺利。 这间民宿的服务真的非常优秀，优秀到我一时之间都不知道该用什么词来形容。说实话，这是我第一次这么认真、花这么多心思为一家住宿写这么长的评价，因为这一次的住宿体验真的值得被推荐。 如果你有机会来到丽江，我真的非常非常推荐这间民宿。无论是服务、环境、舒适度，还是整体住宿体验，都非常出色。这里不是只让你住一晚的地方，而是会让你记住丽江、想再次回来的地方。 真的很推荐，大家一定要亲自来体验。"

"Our stay at this hotel was truly delightful. From the moment we arrived, the manager, Xiao Liew, made us feel right at home with his warm hospitality. He welcomed us with tea and shared his expertise on Yunnan tea, guiding us through the different varieties and helping us find ones we truly enjoyed. The staff throughout the hotel were consistently friendly, attentive, and eager to assist. The property itself was spotless, comfortable, and very well maintained. Its location is also a major plus—just a short stroll from Lijiang Ancient Town, making it easy to explore the surroundings. Xiao Liew’s recommendations for nearby dining were spot on. Each restaurant he suggested offered delicious meals that our family of three thoroughly enjoyed We are grateful to Xiao Liew and his team for making our stay so memorable. We would gladly return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area"

"What an amazing getaway! If you are more into nature and culture....THIS IS YOUR SPOT! It is tucked away inside Shuhe Old Town but you would never know. Once you get there, it is quiet. They are very proud to show you their gardens, their squirrels (they are well provided for), their cats, and what they truly enjoy. We were welcomed with drinks, fruit, and delicious buckwheat bread while we were introduced to the dining area and the movie and games area. Their menu is wonderful. Breakfast is provided and has a set menu of Asian versus Western (i had French toast one morning and pancakes the next) and then an extra section where you can also have yogurt with toppings, fruits, breads, coffee, etc. Other meals are ordered from the menu. The variety is wonderful and the taste and quality are worth it. After traveling throughout China for a few weeks, I really just wanted a burger. The Yak burger was amazing! WARNING: once you pick it up for the first bite, you must commit to it. There is no putting it down. My hands were just a joyous mix of meat juice, cheese dripping, pickle juice, egg dripping....luckily there is a restroom right there to wash up after. Our room was very cute, small, odd, but it worked for us and you could tell it would be cozy come the snow seasons-which we will return for. The odd part was the steps that lead down into the bathroom. I thought, oooo how fun! Not so much in the middle of the night if you are not used to it. But not all rooms have that so don't let that discourage you from enjoying this place. If you are finished walking Shuhe Old Town, there are more options. We decided to walk around the back of the garden. Following the trail, we wound up in a very beautiful park with water and bridges and places to sit. Eventually, we came out at one of the ends of Shuhe. Again, you would never have known because there was no interrupting noises to tell you otherwise. One of the days we took Didi to Baisha Old Town. Another must go! We spent a full day there and still did not finish. Even the rain didn't stop everyone from enjoying everything. Make sure you find the silk art school. It is tucked away but they have a wonderful program. I could do an entire blog on their contributions and empowerment for women but for now, just go enjoy and buy something, support them. Overall, we loved this place and will go back. We were not able to enjoy the mountain this time."

"The room type was excellent, with a large balcony offering great lake views, and the natural light was fantastic. The kids absolutely loved it; they had so much fun running around in the spacious room! The adults also appreciated this room type, as we could enjoy late-night snacks in the living room without worrying about disturbing the children's sleep. The hotel offers many family-friendly activities, including alpacas, ponies, and goats, and you can even feed the swans. The breakfast was quite varied, and we were even able to pack some food for the kids for later, which was very convenient. The afternoon tea was also good; the coffee was delicious, but I wouldn't recommend that particular cake – maybe try another one. The service was great. We stayed for two nights, but there were so many activities we didn't get to experience them all. I think staying a few more days would allow us to try everything. We'll definitely stay there again!"
