Boutique Hotels in Lijiang

Traveling during the off-season was great. The location is super convenient, right near the South Gate, making it easy to catch a taxi and get in and out of the ancient city. The hotel's overall style is very comfortable. You can enjoy the public facilities of the neighboring InterContinental, and just wandering around the hotel is much more relaxing than exploring the ancient city. The breakfast experience was just okay; maybe I just didn't particularly like the local chicken rice noodles. If you have the option, I'd recommend eating at the InterContinental next door. It was September, so the sweet osmanthus flowers were in bloom, and the fragrance was delightful. David upgraded us to a private courtyard, with a osmanthus tree right outside the balcony. Overall, it was a very comfortable stay, highly recommended.

This has been the most satisfying B&B I've ever stayed in. The facilities are excellent, the service is attentive, and responses are quick. They offer free high-speed rail pickup, luggage transfer, welcome afternoon tea, and bedtime milk. When we found a drain odor in our room, the staff checked it out and upgraded us immediately, resolving the issue promptly. The toiletries are also high-end, and you can even take home the slippers, bath towels, and regular towels. Aside from the slight noise issue and a limited breakfast selection, everything else was perfect. I would definitely choose Po Xin Yun She again next time.

This hotel was a delightful surprise. What truly impressed me was their impeccable service, which was attentive without being intrusive. From the perfect greeting at check-in to the complimentary airport transfer arranged by the concierge at departure, there was no forced small talk, yet someone was always there precisely when needed. The thoughtful details were everywhere: the room offered a choice of three pillows, multi-charger cables, and a humidifier. Turndown service included a non-slip mat already placed, a goodnight card on the bedside table, and even a 'travel kit' with a parasol, sunglasses, and sun protection spray. They anticipated every need, both expected and unexpected. If you dislike overly enthusiastic service, value a high-quality stay, or simply want a quiet place to relax – this is the perfect choice. I won't consider staying anywhere else on my next visit.

I've been to Lijiang several times this year for both leisure and business, and I've always stayed at this hotel. This time, it was cloudy with occasional rain, but the room thoughtfully provided an umbrella, which was a nice touch. The front desk staff were very clear with their instructions, and all the employees were incredibly attentive. I even noticed a new addition this time: a ping-pong table, which was great. The common area for tea and chatting is truly elegant and pleasant. It's so relaxing to come back to the quiet hotel after a tiring day out, catch some sleep, and then enjoy a pot of tea in the courtyard. There's also a market nearby with fresh and affordable seasonal fruits. Overall, this was a fantastic experience.

Overall, a great experience! The ambiance is fantastic, truly living up to its reputation as a celebrity-favorite hotel. The room facilities are a bit dated, but it didn't really bother me. The staff were all very enthusiastic and promptly attended to any requests I had. Breakfast was a little simple and could use more variety. The hotel offers plenty of activities, and you can even wake up early to catch the sunrise.

This hotel embodies a typical Naxi style, designed as a garden-villa complex with a superb environment, perfect for family trips. Its location right next to the stadium makes it convenient to reach any scenic spot. It's ideal for those who prefer a relaxed, slow-paced vacation experience. Each villa is a standalone unit with its own private courtyard, where you can enjoy tea and sunbathe. There are also various intangible cultural heritage activities available, so you could easily spend an entire day just at the hotel. Highly recommended, five-star review!

Stayed for one night and experienced a clogged toilet and no hot water for the shower. I can't believe this is happening at a 5-star hotel in 2026. Regarding the lack of hot water mid-shower, the front desk informed me it was due to a temporary power outage. The hotel offered no compensation for these poor infrastructure experiences, acting as if it's a common occurrence and giving a perfunctory response. I believe the current facilities of this hotel no longer meet 5-star standards and it should be closed for renovation. Additionally, some tables and chairs in the restaurant are poorly placed; when seated normally, chairs can bump into each other, which is not a good experience and could easily lead to guest conflicts. Of course, the landscaping of the entire hotel grounds is beautiful, that's undeniable, but if it's not renovated, I won't be staying here again.

The boss is very nice and handsome. The family lives very comfortably. You can also wash and dry clothes. You can go to the bar to find the boss at night. You can also drink Kung Fu tea in the yard. It's great

This guesthouse is nice; I'd give it 9-9.5/10. * The guesthouse's layout: 10/10, I like it. * The location and view of the guesthouse are not particularly good compared to nearby hotels; they're about the same. * Service: 10/10, no problem. The rooms on the south side (A?00, A?01) have a better view, while the rooms on the north side (A?03) have a slightly worse view. There are two large rooms, B?00 and B100, but because they are on the edge (north side), their front is blocked by trees. However, there are some areas for improvement, especially for extended-stay guests; the service seems more casual. (Extended-stay guests should be treated well, not have their service reduced.) [1] Let's talk about breakfast and afternoon tea first. Offering afternoon tea is a great idea. Although it's not expensive food, it allows us to spend our leisure time more leisurely in our rooms or on the rooftop, which is great. But what I'm not satisfied with is that the afternoon tea on the second day was reduced. The same applies to breakfast. We ate rice noodles in the morning, and the presentation was very beautiful. The problem was that the water wasn't hot enough. Even in summer, if I put the noodles in immediately, the meat and shrimp wouldn't cook properly. Undercooked meat and shrimp are inedible and could easily cause stomach upset. So the next day, I asked them to skip the presentation and just cook the noodles directly. As a result, each person received half the amount of rice noodles (which was acceptable since we didn't eat much), but the eggs, meat, shrimp, and fish were all gone – which I couldn't accept. Of the ten dishes on the platter, only six remained, and these were the more expensive ones. The guesthouse told me the kitchen had forgotten and they refilled the platter with fish and shrimp, but I already felt the guesthouse's integrity was questionable; it seemed they didn't welcome extended stays. So, both the afternoon tea and the following day's breakfast were discounted. [2] Traditional towels and bath towels were not provided. If I stayed at a guesthouse costing 100 yuan and they didn't provide towels and bath towels, I wouldn't mind. However, given the price is close to 1,000 yuan, the inn told me that due to hygiene reasons, they only provide disposable towels and disposable bath towels, which is not environmentally friendly. This is unacceptable to me. (If it were truly for hygiene reasons, they could provide both and let guests choose.) Also, there was a large bath towel hanging on the shower door, which was appalling because it was a ”large bath towel,” not a ”floor towel.” If my family hadn't asked beforehand why there was only one bath towel, I don't think anyone would have known that it was a floor towel the inn had asked us to put on the floor. It's disgusting if someone uses a floor towel as a bath towel without knowing it. [3] I appreciate the inn upgrading the ”Jiyue·Woju Special Price Double Room” to a lake-facing room. However, this might lead people to book only the cheapest room. This strategy can gain good reviews through upgrades, but it might also lead people to only book the cheap ”Jiyue·Woju” room. Whether this is appropriate depends on the inn's strategy. [4] The room was beautifully decorated, but there were some issues with the facilities. Of the three rooms we stayed in, the bathroom door in A100 had a large gap, so water leaked out a lot. The sink in A101 had a large hole behind it, making it difficult to retrieve items that fell in. The floor-to-ceiling window door in B100 had a large gap, so large that even at night without drawing the curtains, mosquitoes would seep in and get in.
