Seaview Hotels in Jianchuan

If you would like to stay within the Shaxi old town, this is the place for you. Very quiet location but just a few steps away from the main town. The property’s staff service their guest with their heart. They willing to pick up and deliver our 7 luggage’s from the car park to the property which is quite a distance away. Very clean property which provides full amenities.

I really like hotels under the Jixiashan brand. I stayed at Jixiashan Meili last time. Except for the high price, everything else was very good. The breakfast and the dinner were all very good. The facilities and supplies were very high-end. Most importantly, they were photogenic. This Shaxi hotel is very close to the South Gate of the Ancient Town and the bridge where I took photos. It is convenient to go anywhere. I think it is better than the five-star and gold diamond hotels I stayed at.

I had a fantastic stay at Yingju Inn. The hotel is located in the most central place of Shaxi village. But more importantly, the manager was very helpful and professional. She speaks perfectly English and was able to help me for many things. She indicated me all the sights to visit in the area, and she booked my bus for me. It worth to be noticed, because after almost one month in China, it was the first time that I had a hotel with an English-speaking staff.

I loved that my driver could drive right up to the hotel as I really did not want to transport my things across the cobblestone of Old Town. The location was the hotel is great as you are only a couple minutes from many restaurants, shops, and sights. The grounds are beautiful with so many flowers. The front desk was helpful in suggestions and recommending activities. Having them on wechat was helpful. The breakfast is simple, but alright.

The room is big, the facilities are very good, Shaxi is cold, there are floor heating and air conditioning, the bathroom also has heating facilities, you can choose the pillow, and they will give you good night milk, the milk has a strong milky flavor, the waiters are very good, they are locals, the only shortcoming is that the breakfast is average, I feel that I can't ask for so much, it's a very pleasant stay.

Shaxi old town itself is a true gem on its own, and this place is a gem in a gem. Hidden just outside of the Shaxi old town, it's proximity to the town square （寺登街）is a big plus. The landscape is super cozy, highly suitable for those who want to really have a good break from the hustle and bustle of city life, resting ones mind in an uninterrupted environment. Let's not forget the lady owner taking care of the place, who is so accommodating and helpful. And let's not forget the hot fresh milk provided every evening, which gives another level of warmness to the stay. Notes: if you are here on a Friday, you are of luck. The farmers market held weekly on Friday is just a few minutes walk away from this guesthouse too!

This is one of the best places we have ever stayed! The rooms are spacious, beautiful and clean, with good sized bathrooms. The courtyard is a peaceful and relaxing place. The breakfast is also filling and well prepared. The boss was the most helpful and accommodating host and went out of his way to make our stay comfortable and to arrange transport for our sight seeing and onward journey. We even shared some tea in the evening, getting to know each other better. The location is also perfect, close to the centre of the magical ancient town. Myself and my partner cannot recommend this guesthouse enough! If you no visit Shaxi, you must stay here!

quaint guest house that is run by a retired HK couple, they provided the warmest welcome during our entire trip, and we felt so at home! we spend quite a while chatting with Ms May and her husband and enjoyed the exchange. facilities are homely and basic, with a lovely garden and a kids play area. total of 8 rooms. shaxi ancient town is such a gem, quaint, quiet and is a place where you can really slow down your pace to appreciate what yunnan china is like. spend your time wandering around shaxi ancient town, it’s small (1 hour exploration) but definitely take the time to sit with a cup of coffee or a book. take the yellow taxi (electric buggy) to explore the various smaller towns that surround shaxi. there are appx 7 smaller towns, each with its own charm… we only had time to explore beilongchun, where the pace of life is slow, quiet and healing. the higher you hike, the views are very different! some places to check out: - shaxi avant garde book shop u - universal bakery (alien mascot bakery that sells sourdough, hard crust bread) - bailong tan (small lake) - 山风院子 which has a tree house and a mini cafe - shaxi tea horse museum - old stone bridge, in the afternoon an elderly couple would be there with their goats and you can buy goat milk or take photos. - shaxi friday market!!!

Well-appointed and comfortable inn. Excellent location with easy access to attractions (some within less than 5 mins walk), yet is tucked in a quiet corner. Delicious and nutritious breakfast. Most commendable is the warm hospitality. I feel so well-taken care by everyone here. If I were to visit Shaxi again, I will definitely stay here. And do Shaxi justice by staying for at least a couple of days, and explore the vicinity.
