We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, and the centralized heating kept the room warm at all times, even when the lights were off, which we really appreciated. The hotel is located inside Shuhe Ancient Town, offering a very quiet and peaceful surrounding. The staff were friendly and helpful during operating hours; however, they start work at 8am, so if you need to check out earlier, you’ll need to handle your own luggage. Overall, a comfortable stay and would recommend it.

This guesthouse stay absolutely exceeded all expectations! The in-house coffee shop was a delightful surprise; both the coconut latte and hazelnut latte were delicious! The barista's latte art was also very impressive!
The guesthouse isn't in the most central location, but it's near Dongmen! The surrounding environment is incredibly peaceful, far from the hustle and bustle. Stepping out, you can instantly feel a connection with nature. Whether it's enjoying a coffee in the morning to wake up or relaxing in the evening, it's incredibly pleasant.
As for the accommodation, it was impeccable. The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and the facilities were complete and thoughtfully provided. Every detail showed great care.
The most unexpected surprise was that the owner proactively upgraded us for free to a family room with a direct view of the snow-capped mountains. Waking up and drawing the curtains to see the majestic snow mountain right outside was absolutely stunning and truly touched our hearts!
It's such a shame we only stayed for one night! We didn't even get to experience the afternoon tea! I'll definitely be returning and recommending this place to all my friends!
Can arrange pick up from entrance, noodle is provided from 0730 and taste good

This hotel is located within Shuhe Ancient Town. It's about 200 meters from the East Gate, making it convenient for taxis. The owner even uses a three-wheeler to pick up and drop off luggage at the East Gate.
The hotel facilities are comprehensive, and the environment is clean and tidy. The breakfast is abundant, and they also offer afternoon tea.
You can see the snowy mountains from the room, and the view is absolutely stunning! The soundproofing in the room is also excellent, ensuring a very comfortable night's sleep.

Really good! The room was clean and tidy, and the hotel is located right inside the ancient town. There's even a coffee shop on-site, making it very convenient for getting around. The room looked exactly like the pictures provided by the host. Definitely recommend it!

The room had great lighting and was conveniently located right next to Shuhe Ancient Town. The staff even came to pick us up, which made getting around very easy. The breakfast rice noodles were quite good, and they also offered afternoon tea, which was prepared in advance. The service was excellent, and it was surprisingly quiet. Highly recommend.
My stay was absolutely perfect! From the moment I arrived, the front desk staff gave me a warm welcome and thoughtfully recommended local attractions. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and the soft, comfortable bedding ensured I had a fantastic night's sleep. The bathroom facilities were new, with ample hot water and quality toiletries. The hotel's location is excellent, with shopping malls and a wide variety of restaurants nearby, making it incredibly convenient for exploring. They also offered a complimentary breakfast with a rich variety of tasty options. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next visit!

The hotel is perfectly situated right within the scenic area, making getting around incredibly convenient. The service was excellent, and the surroundings were absolutely beautiful. Our room was spotless and well-maintained. We'll definitely be back on our next visit!
Our three-night stay in this charming, tranquil and convenient family-run hotel was an absolute delight. The traditional Chinese courtyard design is every bit as beautiful as it appears in the photos, making it a perfect spot to decompress after a long journey.
We stayed in the Light Luxury Double Bedroom, which was very spacious and comfortable. I'd rate its cleanliness an 8/10; while I did notice a bit of dust in some corners, it wasn't a concern for us.
One of the standout aspects of our stay was the staff. Despite the language barrier, they were warm and hospitable. Using a translation app ensured we had everything we needed. There is an added personal touch that you simply don't find at larger hotels.
Amenities: We had breakfast at the hotel restaurant and enjoyed afternoon tea at the cafe. Both spaces are well-designed and functional. While they can get a little noisy when full, it was still a lovely experience. Breakfast was served as a set menu. While I might have preferred more variety, it was delicious. Same goes to the tea time offerings too.
Accessibility: Given Lijiang's high altitude, having an elevator was incredibly convenient for acclimatizing and made getting around a breeze. This is a much welcomed feature especially for those who are elderly or simply prefer not to use the stairs.
Location: It's tucked away for peace and quiet, yet just a short 5-minute stroll from the nearest gate where you can easily find a DiDi as well as the main town square, giving you quick access to all the shops and restaurants without sacrificing your quiet retreat.
Final Verdict:
If you appreciate a quiet, cozy, and personal atmosphere, I can't recommend Shuiyun Fangzhou enough. It’s the perfect choice for a peaceful escape while still being close to all the action.

The hotel boasts a beautiful setting, and the rooms are quite spacious. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive; they even send staff to the parking lot to help with your luggage. Plus, the drinks served at the hotel are delicious.

I chose to stay at this hotel for one night before heading to Tiger Leaping Gorge the next day. Everything about the hotel was great, except for the bathroom door being transparent, which was a bit too avant-garde for my taste. I gave them feedback, and they said they would improve it, so it should be much better now.

My partner and I traveled to Yunnan, and this hotel was by far the most satisfying place we stayed during our trip. The ambiance was superb, the service impeccable, and even the smallest details were wonderful! Five-star standards at an incredibly affordable price!
【Exceptional Service】— Hassle-free luggage transfer service to/from Shuhe Ancient Town.
【Local Delights】— High-quality seasonal welcome fruit from Yunnan.
