Hotels Near Dong Ba Drugstore in Lijiang

My family and I stayed at the Cathay Old Town Palace Inn for 3 nights and all of us loved it! Prior to booking, we clarified some questions and the elder sister (Sunny) was so helpful and responsive, super patient and answered me every single questions I have asked. After clarifying our doubts, we decided to go ahead and book our stay with them and this is the best decision we have made! A few days before our stay and arrival, the younger brother (Summer) took over and assisted us. The road in the ancient town may be a little tough to walk on, especially with luggage. However, we got zero worries at all because they will arrange to help us with the luggages and even helped us to carry up all the way to the Inn entrance. When we first arrived, we are warmly welcomed by Sunny and Summer, as well as the pretty younger sister (who I didn’t managed to get her name). Summer then served us their local traditional tea and rose cake which was so delicious! Their breakfast (Mixian) was also very delicious, it was so heartwarming to eat during a cold weather. Subsequently, Summer also helped us to book day tours and shows when we requested for help. Also, we would like to say a big thank you to Summer who went extra mile to specially prepare such a pretty rose birthday cake for my mother! She was so happy and surprised by it and we all loved it too. The rooms are cleans and huge. As the ancient town is bustling till midnight, the room we stayed (near windows) might be able to hear some noise from the bars and streets but that doesn’t affect us that much in anyway as we are so tired by the end of the day. Needless to say, they are almost responsive at all times whenever I messaged them to ask something. Their service is really top notch and our whole family can vouch for it as we really enjoyed our stay here. The next time when we visit Lijiang again, we would definitely choose to return to this place to stay and will highly recommend it to our friends and family members. To those who are reading this review thinking if you should book this stay or not, please wait no more as you will definitely not regret your choice. Thank you to the Cathay Inn team once again! ⭐️

Love the location of hotel which is surrounded by many shops, big supermarket and eateries. In front of hotel is an underground mall and food street linking to ancient city and Big Waterwheel. Hotel lobby is spacious. Room is comfortable and breakfast is good too. Staff are helpful and especially good service by Ms Luo. We are happy with our 3 nights stay at Atour Dashuiche.

Reached Lijiang via Rail and took a 5rmb bus ride which I can buy the ticket before the railway station exit. It take about 40mins and alight at the North gate of the Lijiang Ancient town. Walked for about 10mins to reach the hotel. Very easy to find. It’s located right at the outer circumference of the ancient town, away from the pub music at night. The room is big, clean and comfortable. The receptionist is super friendly and helpful. I book tours with him and he will advise what tourists trap to avoid. There are a lot of food options just at the main road 10 meters away. Visited the Elephant Hill at 黑龙潭 park. Best location to see the sunrise of Yulong Mountains, best of all, it’s free if you reach there before 7am. Had a very nice tea session with the staff of the hotel. The tea is super nice and no hard selling of the tea products. We enjoyed chatting abt everything under the sun. Will definitely come back and stay here in future.

Location is good, just beside the main road so easier to wait for didi or taxi. There is a chagee within the vicinity of the hotel, a convenience store in front and right at the entrance to the ancient town! Room was spacious, there is a self service washer and front desk has a translator device so make life easier for foreign customers!

This is the best place i have ever stayed in my entire trip. The hotel is very clean and the staffs are very kind. So glad that I have Tiramisu to assist me my whole trip. She can speak English well and she can arrange transportation too. I booked the duplex room, it is very spacious with 2 bed which i think are king beds because they are very big. My kids love it so much. They even gave us fruits and served us tea when we check in. They provide oxygen for us as well. The room has a balcony where we can relax and chill. Every part of the hotel is instagrammable. What I like the most is the location where it is just 100m to the North Entrance gate of the Ancient City. It's also 50m to Chagee which i buy Frappe everyday. Perfect hotel, perfect location. 10/10 recommended!!

I found this to be an excellent stay on my trip. The location is superb, being only a stones throw from the North Gate of Lijiang Ancient City. The room was nice with a great walk-in shower and heated-seat toilet; the bed was large and comfortable—great for a tall traveller such as myself! And the staff were both friendly and generous with their time: they helped me on several occasions to get around the area, including the Tiger Leaping Gorge which, without their help, I may have missed my connecting bus to the trek. I highly recommend this place to others looking to stay in Lijiang. The staff are the highlight and I am grateful for their assistance during my stay.

ChatGPT Give a review of my 3night stay at this great place. Strategic location at the Lijiang Ancient Town at North Gate, where I found the heritage lane i really vibrant - couldn't find any other place so unique like this. Room I took is really spacious especially for wife & son. Bath tub in the middle located, quite rare, but it does looks unique. No breakfast provided, no issue since many avaliable food nearby. Coffee shop just beside the hotel. Easy to find muslim food just 15min walking distance. My wife also experience ******* clothing which comes with the package - she very happy. Overall, highly recommended. avatar Here’s a review based on your experience: Review of Our 3-Night Stay at Lijiang Ancient Town We recently enjoyed a fantastic 3-night stay at this wonderful hotel, strategically located at the North Gate of Lijiang Ancient Town. The vibrant heritage lane nearby truly made our experience unique and immersive—there's no other place like it! Our room was impressively spacious, which was perfect for my wife and son. One standout feature was the bathtub situated in the center of the room—it's quite rare and added a unique touch to our stay. While the hotel didn't provide breakfast, it wasn't an issue at all since there were plenty of food options nearby. We particularly loved the coffee shop right next to the hotel, making it convenient for a quick caffeine fix. Additionally, we discovered several options for halal food just a 15-minute walk away, which was a pleasant surprise. One of the highlights of our trip was my wife's experience with ******* clothing, which was included in our package. She was absolutely thrilled with it! Overall, we highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking to explore Lijiang. The combination of a strategic location, spacious accommodations, and excellent local food options made our stay truly memorable.

We had a fantastic experience at this hotel. From the moment we arrived, the owner’s hospitality was evident—he personally came to the main gate to help us with our heavy luggage, which was incredibly thoughtful. The owner was also very informative, providing us with valuable guidance and tips about activities and attractions in the area. It made planning our trip so much easier and more enjoyable. The room was lovely, and we especially appreciated the bathroom, which had a bathtub—a perfect way to relax after a day of exploring. Overall, a wonderful stay with exceptional service. Highly recommended!

This is my first time in Lijiang. Mr. Andy contact me days before we arriving from Kuala Lumpur to arrange for pick up at train station. But due to my WeChat aps error, we go to the hotel by DiDi and he picked us from the entrance and helped us with the bags as the old city not accessible direct by car. While we were checking in he made us tea, which was really nice. The hotel is very beautiful, just in the center of Lijiang Old Town. You can go out and stroll. The room and environment is beautiful, comfortable and clean and also all the essential are there. The whole staff of the hotel were really nice and always there for me for all the service that I need especially Mr. Andy. He taking care of us. He helped me reserving a trip to the snow mountain & Tiger Leaping Gorger. Mr. Andy led us to the meeting point in the morning. Very good of him. Mr. Andy arrange driver to send us to the train station on our last day in Lijiang. I highly recommended staying at this hotel and will never regret the experience. Will definitely choose here for my next visit to Lijiang To Mr. Andy, thank you so much for your help and kindness. Till we meet again

Had 6 wonderful nights stay at the hotel. The hotel is just a few minutes walk to Lijiang ancient town. The hotel is built with ancient architecture but the interior is very modern. The environment is peaceful and the hotel overlook the entire old ancient city. The view is breathtaking. The hotel room is spacious and clean. The room is equipped with heated flooring and mattress. The hotel manager, 小唐 is very thoughtful. He always check in on us to ensure that we are comfortable and ensure that our requests are met. He always serves us tea, chat with us whenever he is free and explain China history which was very interesting. He personally cut fruits for us which was so nice of him. When we were out the whole day, he will turn on the aircon in our room to ensure that we come back to a warm room after a long day. It’s our first trip to China and we have very good impression of the country because of 小唐. His service is top notch 👍 and the gold standard for the hospitality industry. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone coming to Lijiang. Yunnan is such a beautiful place and the people are kind and warm.
