Inns in Yunnan, China

The room smelled heavily of cigarettes, and there were hairs on the sheets and pillowcases, which was disgusting, but everything else was worth the price. The proprietress was nice, the inn facilities were very thoughtful, the details of the public areas were carefully arranged, the location was good, the price/performance ratio was high, and there were not so many bars in the ancient town to bother you when you go to bed at night.

Our host Ah Fei was very welcoming and extremely helpful from the beginning until the end of my stay. The service was superb, they helped out with luggage pick up and I was arrived late at night and very thankful for the late night pick up service at the train station 🙏🏻. This hotel is within Lijiang Old Town, cars can’t comes in and just right outside the north gate. There is plenty of restaurant, very accessible and easily for those who take a day tour for the tour guide to pick you up from here and wait at the main road. Overall it was a pleasant stay, they provided guest with a welcome tea and fruits. The hotel has a beautiful courtyard. The room is clean and comfortable. Will recommend this hotel to others.

This courtyard guesthouse is super close to the South Gate of Dali Ancient City, easily reachable in about five or six minutes on foot. It's really convenient for getting to Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. If you're not driving, besides taxis, there's also public transportation available. There's a direct shuttle bus to Cangshan, and you can take the C2 bus to Erhai. Dining options are plentiful and very convenient, right across from the main gate of the ancient city. The owner couple are very warm and provide excellent service. We're a family of three and chose the triple room, which was very spacious and we were extremely satisfied. Definitely worth choosing!

I’ve spent three months traveling and I really needed to find a place where I felt comfortable and could stay bit longer. That’s when I found this hidden gem and I end up staying for a week. It’s a great value hotel in Lijiang! It’s just outside the Old Town, so you’re close to everything but away from the noise. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and very affordable. The area is calm with lots of nice local restaurants nearby. Would definitely stay here again.

Very good value for money. Room is clean and comfortable, with big TV and fully functional air conditioning or heating. Beds were comfortable and sufficient hot water and good water pressure in the shower. Directly on old town street and really close to Zhu family garden. Owner is friendly and dropped us off at the train station for free!

The place looks exactly like the picture. Very beautiful. The room was included with towels and basic amenities. They also provide me hair dryers (yes, multiple), air humidifier and indoor slippers. My room is also equipped with smart toilet, which comes with seat warmer and bidet. This place is also located very close to Lijiang old town, in fact one could argue that the place is located in Lijiang old town. The staffs here are very friendly and helpful. Brought me to some places for souvenirs and advice me which street food is halal and non-halal. Definitely will come and stay here again if return to visit Lijiang.

What a great location for being amongst the terraces! We splurged and got the terrace view room, and it was very nice with a great view, comfortable bed, warm blankets, and hot shower. The room has an unblocked view of the terraces. But if you don't get that room, the upstairs balcony has the very best view. But we enjoyed watching the sunrise from our bed with hot tea. Lucian is really great! He explained to us different hiking options for seeing other views. His English is really good too so you can ask him any questions about the area. He has a sweet old dog and a cute young cat. He's also available to pick you up if you get lost or have trouble getting back after sunset. There are 2 good restaurants a 10 minute uphill walk away, or Lucian can cook you meals, which are also great. Thanks Lucian! -Travis and Elisha (Colorado, USA) PS.

The B&B bathroom was exceptionally good and well-stocked with disposables. My girlfriend and I had bought our own, but didn't even need to use them, which shows how thoughtful the owner is. There's also a shuttle service to and from the station. The owner is truly fantastic. We've traveled from Kunming to Dali, Lijiang, and now Shangri-La, and the service here in Shangri-La is absolutely top-notch. The owner even gave us tips for exploring the area. I don't usually leave reviews, but I just had to this time. Highly recommend!

The hotel has a great location, right in Jianshui Ancient Town, with free parking right outside. The guesthouse is decorated in a very stylish way. The rooms are on the third floor, with a huge living room and a view of the lake near the Confucian Temple – a beautiful view indeed. The rooms are quite large, with a wooden interior design. It's not far from Lotus Island and Xianghui Bridge bus station.

This guesthouse near Dali Ancient City's East Gate is an absolute gem! The best part of my Dali trip was definitely choosing the right place to stay. It's right next to the East Gate, just a few minutes' walk to Erhai Gate, making it super convenient for exploring the old city and finding good food. Yet, it's surprisingly quiet and peaceful despite being so central. The moment I walked in, I was captivated by its style – wooden furniture, lush greenery, and a blend of Bai minority architectural elements with modern design. Every corner felt warm and inviting, perfect for photos! The guy at the front desk was incredibly friendly, offered to help with my luggage, patiently explained local attractions, and even gave useful tips to avoid tourist traps, which made me feel very welcome. The room was fully equipped with everything you could need, from soft bedding and high-quality toiletries to cotton swabs, earplugs, and disinfectant wipes. They even provided disposable toilet seat covers – the attention to detail was exceptional. I had such a comfortable and hassle-free stay. I'll definitely choose this place again on my next visit to Dali!
