This Yunnan trip included stays at several hotels costing over 2000 RMB, and this one was, by far, the most disappointing in all aspects and the least value for money.
First, the room design had significant flaws. The indoor air was incredibly stuffy, so much so that I couldn't sleep. I can hike and climb mountains at 3700 meters altitude without any altitude sickness, and I sleep soundly everywhere else, yet in this hotel room, I was so stuffy I couldn't sleep all night. I even needed oxygen to relieve it, and this happened both nights – it was incredibly frustrating.
The overall hotel environment and service also didn't justify the price. While a price surge during the National Day holiday is understandable, for a 2000+ RMB per night hotel, the buffet breakfast was terrible, and the complimentary afternoon tea was perfunctory. In Yunnan, the coffee should at least be up to average standards, and the cakes tasted like pre-made ones. There was also a strong, unpleasant farm odor in the air, not fresh at all. The common areas were decorated with many artificial flowers that looked cheap. The service was equally unremarkable. The pick-up driver parked far away, and at Lijiang Station, there was no one to guide us or help with luggage; we had to find our way entirely on our own.
In short, the details were subpar. If the initial impression was 60 points, various deductions after check-in brought it down to 20 points.
Compared to other 2000+ RMB hotels on this trip, this one was completely outclassed in terms of environment, service, and dining – the difference was stark.
The above review is entirely based on a genuine stay experience, fair and objective, and does not even account for the negative impact of bad weather.
