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."

"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."

"Opening the window revealed a rice paddy. It was a pity we went at the wrong time of year, but the morning air was incredibly fresh. The courtyard was filled with the owner's flowers and plants: ginkgo, ugly orange, and lantern flowers. The sunlight streaming into the courtyard was so comforting. The guesthouse was run by a young couple and had a very homey feel. The rooms were spacious and cozy, the mattresses were super comfortable, and the owners were incredibly welcoming. Since we arrived quite late and it was a bit chilly, the owners warmly invited us to chat by the grill and even brought us some ice wine to try. The owner's wife made a bouquet of dried flowers from fallen ginkgo leaves in the yard, which I loved and gave to me. The breakfast was very characteristic of the Naxi people and incredibly plentiful. The corn was so sweet I ate a whole ear and was stuffed! Although we were a bit rushed, I couldn't resist taking a stroll around the guesthouse area to soak in the warmth and simplicity. Next time I have the chance to go to Weixi, I'll definitely choose this place again."

"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 room is very new and it is now a trial operation stage. My button was dropped and I asked if there was a sewing bag at the front desk and sent it to me immediately. There is flower tea in the lobby. It is not rich early but there are things to add. The rice noodles are delicious. The soy milk is freshly ground soy milk. It is good to supplement progesterone. I will go live next time."

"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."

"I want to write a detailed review of this guesthouse in Weixi. There were so few reviews that I was a little worried before booking. We arrived a bit late and hadn't eaten, so the owners quickly cooked some dishes for us: stir-fried pork with chili peppers and shredded potatoes—very home-style cooking, but incredibly delicious. We booked a room on the first floor, all made of solid wood with underfloor heating. The bedding was brand-name and very comfortable, and the bathroom had a smart toilet. The most unforgettable experience was the breakfast the next day, along with the beautiful little garden. I must say, it was the best yak butter tea I've ever had, along with roasted glutinous rice cakes with a hint of wheat flavor, and steamed buns made by the owner himself, all made with grains he grew himself. The eggs were also much more fragrant than those in the city. You can tell the owner puts their heart into the business; the flowers and plants in the courtyard were blooming beautifully even in winter. We originally planned to book Songtsam, but it was fully booked, so we stayed here. After visiting the suites upstairs, we felt this place offered excellent value for money. If I have the chance to come to Weixi again, I will definitely choose Yue Ting. Here are some pictures of the upstairs guest rooms; the window views are amazing, and you can even see the Bodhidharma Cave in the distance. This is Qibie Village in Weixi Township, a small village entirely inhabited by the Naxi people, worth slowing down and staying for a few days."

"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."

"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!"

"This trip to the homestay is perfect! 🌄 📍 The location is excellent, the surrounding scenery is pleasant, and the transportation is very convenient. It is easy to reach whether it is to go to popular attractions or find local food. 🏠 The room is clean and tidy, the decoration style is unique, and the details show the quality. The bedding is soft and comfortable, so that I can sleep soundly every night. And the facilities are very complete, from high-speed Wi-Fi to exquisite toiletries, all available, completely meet my various needs. 👨👩👧👦 The landlord's hospitality has added a lot of warmth to this stay. Not only did we prepare a detailed play guide for us in advance, but also provided help at any time during our stay, which made people feel particularly intimate. Here, I not only found a comfortable residence, but also gained the warmth and care of home. Highly recommended to all travelers! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟"
