This is a gem and I loved everything from the decor, service and quiet warm room. There is an observatory to watch the sunset overlooking the city without the noise of the streets. Enjoy a tea on the balcony too. Kind staff even allowed clothes washing. I love this place.

The place is quite convinient overally, somewhat centre of few sides of tourist attraction like you can decide to travel left or travel to the right today.
Just directly infront has a restaurant, serve chinese food. And walking distance you able to get a western restaurant upstairs name N's Kitchen, chinese noodles restaurant, convinience stores, etc.
However, just headsup to anyone who has walking difficulities, from the gate that the Taxi can drop us off to this hotel, have 2 routes. 1 is with staircases downwards (shorter distance), and another 1 is a walking somewhat flatter route (longer distance). Overally is acceptable. My dad experienced it.
If there is mini fridge would be a bonus point. I somehow understand do not have that because the weather is cold, but if you take away foods, this is part of your consideration then.
The botique hotel has a viewing deck that you can spot the famous mountain 玉龙雪山.

Superb amenities, location and hospitality. The owner very friendly and helpful. He can speak english. Do contact them before arriving and they will wait you at the entrance to help you with your luggage. The place very close with famous water wheel. Recommended to stay here.
The owner knows english, pick up and sent to main road help with luggage. The amenities is complete. No complain at all about this place. In the ancient old town. Just have some stairs to reach this place. Thank you very much for having us.

The room was great, and the location couldn't be better – right in the ancient city. It's very close to transportation links, making it super convenient for exploring and sightseeing. It was also wonderfully quiet at night. The host provided excellent, very warm, and friendly service. A word of advice for visitors to the ancient city: steer clear of buying local fruits like Haishenguo and Bayuezhá – they are absolutely disgusting!

Lijiang's summer weather was just perfect. This time, I chose Shaoshuai Li Mansion, and it actually shares my family name (Li), which was a pleasant surprise! The ambiance was lovely, and both the facilities and cleanliness were superb. But what truly stood out was the staff's dedication and professionalism. The owner went above and beyond, eagerly assisting us with numerous travel plans and routes! Highly recommend!

This charming courtyard boasts a warm and witty host who thoughtfully provides various travel tips on the wall. The courtyard itself is adorned with beautiful flowers. From the rooftop swing, guests can enjoy excellent nighttime views of the ancient city and Wangu Tower. Its superb location, not far from the North Gate entrance, saves a lot of time when exploring the old town. Highly recommended!

Tucked away in the bustling Lijiang Ancient Town, this place offers a quiet retreat, making it incredibly convenient for dining and getting around. There's a veranda with seating on the second floor, and two small viewing platforms on the rooftop. Although not large, sitting on the platform or veranda in the evening, enjoying the breeze while gazing at the distant mountains and clouds, is incredibly relaxing. The owner is very kind and hospitably shared recommendations for local food, transportation, and more. Their calm and welcoming demeanor truly made us feel right at home. It's definitely a hotel worth staying at.

The guesthouse has a truly beautiful courtyard, and the owner was incredibly hospitable. He even arranged for his staff to help us with our luggage using a small cart, shuttling it to and from our room. The guesthouse is located very close to Lijiang Square, Wuyi Street, and the Big Water Wheel, all just a few minutes' walk away. The location is superb! The courtyard itself is beautifully decorated, exuding a poetic charm. Every little corner showcases the designer's thoughtful touches and ingenuity; I absolutely loved it. The Lashi Lake day trip recommended by the owner was incredibly good value – for just 120 RMB, it covered the whole day and even included lunch!

The guesthouse has a lovely ambiance and is exceptionally clean. The decor is thoughtfully done, especially the courtyard, which feels very artistic and elegant. Its location is fantastic, right between the Waterwheel and Sifang Street. While it's incredibly bustling and noisy just outside, the moment you step into the guesthouse lobby, it becomes surprisingly peaceful. Sitting on the spacious terrace in the evening, enjoying the cool breeze and a drink, was absolutely delightful. Plus, there's another observation deck offering breathtaking night views of the ancient city – truly spectacular! This guesthouse is definitely worth a stay.
