Mountain View Hotels in Weixi

"There's a fairly large backyard that can park over a dozen cars. The accommodation is in an older building with an elevator. This room type doesn't have air conditioning, but it provides a fan and electric blankets. Because it's quite cool up in the mountains, you can use the electric blankets in early May, and it's quite comfortable to sleep in. This town could be renamed ”Supermarket Town”—it's full of huge supermarkets and snack shops. If you're going to see the monkeys, be aware that the road up the mountain to the park is currently (25 years old) under construction, with significant ditches and obstacles; cars should proceed with caution."

"This B&B is the one that has left the deepest impression on me over the years. How should I put it? It feels like I am visiting a Naxi family while staying in a B&B, and I feel like a part of this family. The B&B is located in a village a few kilometers away from the center of Tacheng Town, and Songtsam Hotel is in the next village. Before arriving at the B&B, you will first pass a large rice field with a nice slope. The entrance of the B&B is very open. In addition to the rice fields, you can also overlook Tacheng Town in the distance. I went there on November 1st, and the rice had not been harvested yet, which was very sparse (see the photo below). When I arrived, the boss's family happened to be having a National Day dinner in the store. I arrived quite late, and the traffic was a bit congested, but the boss came out to help guide me to the parking space. From the beginning, I felt his patience and closeness. After we parked, the boss said that he happened to be having a family gathering and we arrived very late, so we could have dinner with him for free. This is the first time I have ever felt that guests are treated like family. As shown in the picture, the boss served us a lot of local dishes, which tasted very local and delicious. While we were eating, the boss, the boss's wife, and the boss's uncle came to toast me, gave me beer, and chatted with me. I remember we chatted for a long time until very late that day. When booking a room, I was originally choosing between it and another B&B in the town. From the photos, it seemed that the decoration levels of the two B&Bs were similar. In fact, I was more inclined to the one in the town at first because I like to stay in lively areas and have more options for dining. This time, when I entered the room, I was greatly surprised. The decoration style was very good and exquisite. I suddenly felt that the boss was really bad at taking pictures. It must be better than the one in town when I saw it in person. The boss said that his bedding was very good. The bed was a solid wood bed, and the sheets and quilt covers were relatively expensive. It was indeed very comfortable to sleep on. With such a great environment, I didn’t sleep in the morning. I couldn’t wait to get up early and go out to fly a plane and take pictures in the morning light. When I came back at eight o'clock, breakfast was ready. It was a typical Naxi breakfast (very similar to ******* food). Butter tea, steamed buns and side dishes are all delicious. The next morning we were going to the Golden Monkey National Park. After the proprietress found out, she contacted the park. It turned out that reservations had to be made through local hotels or B&Bs, so those who come to visit should pay attention."

"I had such a great stay in Tacheng, thanks to the hotel’s owner! When I planned my Yunnan trip and asked AI to help me (because of the lack of online information in English), and it recommended me to go to Tacheng to see the snub-nosed monkeys, little did I know that nothing could be done there without a car. Fellow travelers, just so you know: there are no bus stations nor taxis in Tacheng. I of course only realized it once I arrived. I felt dumb (no I do not have a car nor a driver), but the hotel’s owner was super kind and gave my friend and I free roundtrip rides, to the hotel and in the early morning to the Snub-nosed Monkey Park (that is closeby). Because the closest restaurant was 42 km away, we were given a generous and delicious dinner. (It was supposed to be 50 rmb but at the end the boss made it free.) I’m vegetarian and the boss accommodated me. The breakfast, that was included in the price, was also generous and delicious. As for the hotel, it was beautiful and comfortable. There’s a really nice living room (we were given free fruits and free beer!) and a really nice patio as well. The room was clean, the pillows were so soft and the shower was surprisingly techno. I slept very well, even though a rooster started to crow in the early morning (so remember to close the window before going to sleep). In the evening, we walked in the surroundings and I liked it so much, it was picturesque and peaceful. My stay in Tacheng could’ve been a nightmare but thanks to the hotel’s owner, I really enjoyed it (and I got to see the famous snub-nosed monkeys!) So I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel, where I didn’t expect so much kindness and generosity."

"A very satisfied hotel stay experience, sincerely recommend! The stay experience was very good, the staff greeted with a warm smile, the hotel lobby was simple and atmospheric, the room environment was clean and tidy, the items were arranged in a well-organized manner, the room facilities were complete, everything was available, the stay was excellent, the hotel breakfast was varied and the taste was rich. Overall very good, very recommended! ! !"

"The hotel is quite large for the area, so the parking lot is also quite large, which is rare in the area, and can probably accommodate over 20 cars. The owner can arrange interactions with locals, home visits, and cultural heritage experiences. The bedding and toiletries are excellent. The shower has strong water pressure and plenty of water, and the shower floor drain drains quickly, preventing water from accumulating. Breakfast, tea/coffee, and meals by the fields are a fantastic setting. I found the breakfast delicious, featuring local, seasonal ingredients. Tacheng isn't as well-known as Shangri-La in Lijiang. At an altitude of around 2,400 meters, the climate is excellent, and it's definitely worth a 2-3 night stay to experience it all. You can hike, harvest, meditate, and more. Most importantly, local ethnic minorities (think Tibetans and Lisu) still live here. From your room or balcony, you can see the fields working in the distance. I have to say Songtsam's location is a sure win. (This is not a review of the Songtsam Hotel.) There are also many boutique B&Bs in the area, all very unique, so be sure to book in advance."

"Stayed for two nights and really recommend the Weixixuan Smart Hotel! The first feeling is ”new”, from the lobby to the room are clean and bright, and the intelligent guest control is particularly convenient. The most surprising thing is breakfast! The variety is super rich, not only regular eggs, corn, sweet potatoes, etc., there are stir-fried vegetables, Xiaolongbao, steamed dumplings, authentic Yunnan rice noodles, hot butter tea, and fresh fruit. It’s so intimate to taste the local flavor early in the morning. The hotel is designed in style and the service staff are very enthusiastic. Next time I come to Weixi, I will definitely choose here again. It was a great stay experience, thank you!"

"This Airbnb stay was absolutely perfect! 🌄 📍The location is superb, surrounded by beautiful scenery and incredibly convenient transportation, making it easy to reach popular attractions and explore local cuisine. 🏠The room was clean and tidy, with a unique and thoughtfully designed style that showcased quality in every detail. The soft and comfortable bedding ensured a good night's sleep every night. The amenities were also comprehensive, from high-speed Wi-Fi to exquisite toiletries, perfectly meeting all my needs. 👨👩👧👦The host's warm hospitality added even more to the stay. They not only prepared detailed travel guides for us in advance but also offered assistance throughout our stay, making us feel exceptionally cared for. Here, I not only found comfortable accommodation but also experienced the warmth and care of home. Highly recommended for all travelers! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"

"It was a surprise to stay in this B&B in Tacheng County. The room is very spacious, bright, clean and tidy. The bathroom is separated into wet and dry areas. The room is very comfortable as a whole. The bath water is very good. The owner and the proprietress of the B&B are very enthusiastic and pet-friendly. There is a large courtyard with convenient parking. It is very rich and worth recommending!"

"Too satisfied. We booked Guyuan, stayed in three, and friends traveled together. Guyuan has a garden where you can eat outdoors. The housekeeper is also the boss here. It is very good. He helped us solve various problems. The luggage was carried upstairs. In order to let us have a party at night, we helped buy vegetables and cook for a whole day. The service staff together was an aunt and a beautiful sister. In the evening, they sang Naxi and Tibetan folk songs for us. Living here is simply too satisfying. Also help us contact the winery to visit and the Golden Monkey Park. I will definitely choose this next time I come to play with other friends."

"This is a noisy hotel, we could hear the neighbours talking and showering. There was also a lot of noise from the street. It was quiet only after midnight. The room was clean, the sanitary facilities though outdated. Nice view of the mountains. Friendly owners."
