★★★ 9.6 (3,722 reviews)

"Stayed here for 2 nights. The property is in an amazing location in the Lijiang old town. The courtyard was as beautiful as the pictures and the room was very spacious and clean. My host, Dalin, was extremely kind and responsive to all of my needs. He even helped reach out to drivers when I was unable to call a Didi back from the Yulong mountain visitor center! Highly recommend!"

📍 No. 180 Yunling Section, Yizheng Community, Xi'an Subdistrict, Gucheng District, Lijiang
★★★ 9.8 (2,337 reviews)

"Location: It's near Heilongtan and a short walk to the old street. There are shops and restaurants around the hotel. Service: All the staff were welcoming and friendly. For example, they helped carry my luggage before I even arrived at the hotel, helped contact the airline when my flight was delayed, and replaced my hairdryer at midnight. They also gave good advice on places to visit. Room condition: The room is modern and can be controlled with AI voice commands to turn lights, curtains, and air conditioning on and off (Chinese language only). The bathroom is spacious, the air conditioning is cool, but the room door is not very soundproof. Food: Breakfast is a set menu with unlimited refills. What I liked most was the afternoon tea with fruit served while enjoying the view of the Yulong Mountain. There was also a Suyoucha-making workshop in the evening, which was a fun activity and allowed me to chat with other guests."

"The hotel boasts a beautiful environment and a prime location near Shuhe Ancient Town, offering convenient transportation. The hotel's internal surroundings are stunning, with black swans gracefully swimming in a beautiful lake, creating a very relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, equipped with a coffee maker and humidifier, which is very convenient. The hotel also provides buggy service for transportation within the premises and offers a good selection of restaurants. The check-out process was handled very efficiently by a lovely lady named Angel. I would definitely come back again if I have the chance."

📍 Entrance of Shuhe Ancient Town, North Side of Xiangjiang Road, Shuhe Subdistrict, Gucheng District, Lijiang
★★★★★ 9.1 (3,133 reviews)

"My partner and I stayed at Pullman Lijiang Resort & Spa for two nights during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday. Overall, our experience was mixed. The highlight of our stay was definitely the villa itself. It was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The bed was excellent—one of the most comfortable hotel beds we have slept on in a long time. We had two very restful nights, and the room provided a peaceful environment to relax after exploring Lijiang. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience did not live up to the hotel’s luxury branding, price point, or rating. While the property may once have been a premium resort, it now feels dated and in need of renovation. Many of the facilities and amenities appear worn, and the overall condition of the hotel gives the impression that it has not been maintained to the standard expected of a luxury resort. The biggest disappointment was the breakfast. The Western selection was very limited and of questionable quality, while the Chinese options were equally underwhelming. Even basic items such as the baozi did not taste freshly made. For a hotel in this price range, the food quality was surprisingly poor and far below expectations. Having stayed at many other hotels across China, including less expensive and less prestigious brands, I have often enjoyed significantly better breakfast offerings and overall value. The dining experience simply does not reflect the premium rates charged by this property. In summary, if you value a large villa and a comfortable bed, this hotel may still be worth considering. However, those expecting a true luxury resort experience, modern facilities, and high-quality dining may find themselves disappointed. The accommodation itself was enjoyable, but the amenities, maintenance, and food quality need significant improvement to justify the hotel’s reputation and pricing."

InterContinental Hotels LIJIANG ANCIENT TOWN RESORT by IHG

"The hotel is incredibly comfortable and offers a luxurious, rustic getaway vibe. Its unique architectural style seamlessly blends with Lijiang Old Town. The hotel itself is a mini-attraction, with individual villas containing suites, each area offering a distinct view perfect for photos. The north gate leads directly to Lijiang Old Town, and it's only about a kilometer to Dayan Flower Lane, making it convenient for dining, entertainment, and shopping. It caters to both those who enjoy a lively atmosphere and those who prefer peace and quiet. Room service is incredibly prompt and almost always fulfills requests. Breakfast, in-room dining, and the Chinese restaurant all offer excellent food quality – I highly recommend the mushroom hotpot. A spa session upon arrival was the perfect cure for travel fatigue. Thanks to the promotional activities, my stay was very pleasant. The room was cozy and clean. A well-deserved five-star rating for my three-night stay."

Oriental Garden Inn (Lijiang Old Town Watermill)

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect roadside location for Lijiang! Amazing Location: Right beside the main road, making car access and luggage handling completely hassle-free. Unlike most hotels hidden deep inside Lijiang Old Town, you do not have to drag bags across long cobblestone streets. Great for Muslims: Super convenient because it is located very close to multiple halal restaurants. Bathroom Note: There is no bidet, but we easily managed by using the clean dustbin as a water bucket. Room & Views: The room was clean and featured a lovely balcony with stunning, scenic views. Helpful Staff: The team was incredibly supportive and gave us great assistance for our trip to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. No Elevator: Keep in mind there are no lifts. The staff kindly carried our heavy bags up at check-in. There was no one at the counter to help us carry them down during our very early morning checkout, but it was still perfectly fine for us.!"

"This guesthouse is super photogenic! The log cabin design paired with green plants means every corner is a picture-perfect spot. The tea room and books really add to the artistic vibe. The owner has great taste. In the evenings, listening to the wind in the courtyard, and during the day, soaking up the sun with a cup of tea – I didn't want to leave at all. It's the perfect escape from the city, so relaxing and comfortable. I loved it!"

The front desk service was also wonderfully enthusiastic and proactive, paying attention to every detail. With both excellent hardware and software, I highly recommend this place!"

"I must say that the service was really good. The staff is fast to reply even though it is now peak period here. Come early for breakfast if u are here during this time because there was practically nothing much left this morning. It was fine on the first day. I stayed two days. I think what attracted me to this hotel were the workshops and other activities they offer. It is also near shuhe ancient town which has a more rustic charm as compared to the other ancient towns. They are also a 7 min drive away from Muyu and Lan restaurant, some of their popular trending restaurants here. Overall the environment is very chill and has lots of green. You can call for a buggy to bring u to the main entrance or back to your room. The rooms are villa style which is refreshing after the minsu(s) I stayed in. Cleanliness wise esp the floor could be better, I gave the feedback and they immediately got housekeeper to clean up for me. A good value stay when you get the voucher on the app. I will come back again. Ps. There are 3 resorts in the same area which can be confusing. But just get the"

"Staying in the Wanda Meihua 2-Bedroom Suite in Lijiang Old Town was a wonderful surprise! The space was exceptionally spacious, with two well-designed bedrooms, comfortably accommodating four people. The entire apartment was meticulously cleaned, with tidy corners and a dry bathroom – the hygiene was impeccable. The decor was simple yet elegant, and the location near the Old Town offered convenient access – just a 10-minute drive away. The front desk service was also very attentive. For comparable amenities, the price was affordable and offered excellent value, making it a top choice for family trips. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Lijiang!"

"I really would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Lijiang. The owner of the hotel has been so helpful throughout my stay, I added his WeChat and he has been able to give me recommendations and reliable tours throughout. I have even been able to just ask him about any general local know-how! The place itself is about 5 minutes to the north gate of the ancient city, making early wake ups for hikes and tours really manageable. The room is really clean and comfortable and I was very impressed by the included breakfast. 5/5!"

"The staff went above and beyond throughout my entire stay. They were always available to help with anything, answered every question patiently, recommended great local restaurants, and even arranged airport and high-speed rail station transfers, making the trip completely stress-free. One of the most thoughtful moments was when I had to leave very early in the morning for Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Knowing that most breakfast places would not be open yet, the hotel prepared a simple breakfast for me in advance so I wouldn't have to start the day hungry. It was a small gesture that left a big impression. The rooftop offers a beautiful view of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the regular breakfast was delicious every day. The ******* butter tea activity was also a memorable experience. It was a wonderful opportunity to learn about local culture, meet other guests, and share stories together. Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The level of hospitality here is exceptional. If I ever return to Lijiang, I will definitely here again😍😍 And their dog is so cute🤩"

"First and foremost, the location is unbeatable. It's the best hotel right next to Shuhe Ancient Town, offering a prime view of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. The stunning mountain scenery, beautiful lake, and garden landscape are all right there for you to enjoy. Every day, you wake up to a picturesque view from a 'king's' vantage point. Secondly, the hotel facilities are comprehensive. The restaurant is exceptionally good, and I highly recommend the hotpot place. The photography studio is excellent; they took the best photos of my wife and me to date, even better than our wedding photos! The hotel is huge, with a large swimming pool and gym, plus a sauna and massage services. There are also many small animals, so you wouldn't get bored even if you stayed indoors for days. Thirdly, the room amenities are top-notch. The balcony is very comfortable, and at night, I could hear the black swans splashing in the lake – it was so blissful and relaxing."

"100% will not book this place again. If I could give 0 stars, I would for all aspects. Let me break it down: 1. When you first enter the hotel, you will smell cat pee and poo because they have 4 cats but they do not clean up after their cats. Saw the same cat **** outside my room door for 2 days. 2. Room is hella dirty. Mold can be found on cups and everywhere in the toilet. Paid for a bathtub for it to be dirty with black fingerprints all over (did not use it). Spiderwebs can be found all over the room, nose was dying from the dust. 3. Toilet shower head holder is broken, so it sprays the wall while you shower. Toilet doors have huge gaps so u will flood your toilet. 4. Totally unsafe for a solo traveller, the door locks are olden day wood picks with gaps between each door so people can look in. When you leave it is a metal lock so LOL people can push the door open and look into your room while you are not there. Rooms are not soundproof so you can hear everyone in the hotel. 5. They do not provide room service everyday. You have to ask for your toilet paper to be refilled and towels to be changed. 6. This place is on a pricer end compared to other hotels (even those right opposite and nearer) yet they do not provide car services to and fro train stations and airports. So good luck dragging your luggage around old town, meanwhile their own cars can come in and pick you up from the door. (Yes, you can pay more money for it and yes it is double of what you will pay on didi) 7. Hot water is moodier than my own mood swings. Random burning hot water or freezing cold water withouy even touching the handle. Book this place if you want to get medical leave cause you will get a fever from the shower."
