Pet Friendly Hotels in Lancang

The location had great views over the valley, including the early morning sea of cloud. The property has a rooftop lookout that our group could get together to enjoy the view. It helped that our taxi could drive through the narrow road of Mengben village and deposit us and our luggage on the doorstep of the homestay. This is unlike Wengji & Nuogang villages, where cars are not allowed to enter the village but deposit visitors at the village carpark. The hospitality of the owner/hostess was remarkable. She had a Pu'er tea table and made us endless cups of different tea all grown in her farm, explaining their differences and virtues. She did not charge us a cent for the whole experience. Neither did she try to hard sell the tea leaves although we did buy a small amount off her because we enjoyed the tea. She is a good cook and whipped up breakfast and lunch for us.

Exceeded all my expectations of a boutique homestay with only six rooms . Ultra luxury linens and beddings , ,Panasonic view of sea clouds at the confer of your bath tub , tasteful contemporary chinese interiors , and to top it all , run by a simple humble couple who goes to ends to make your stay a comfortable one . When you stay for 3 nights or more , they cook up a storm of local delicacies for your dinner , on top of daily breakfast! Do be prepared breakfasts are local style . Bit there’s a great cafe nearby service Arabica yunna beans and it’s become one of my fave ! Def great value for money !

The owner was incredibly kind and provided excellent service. The newly opened guesthouse was clean and hygienic, and the room even had gardenias, which smelled wonderful. The bed was very comfortable, and breakfast was served the next day. You can also have tea with the owner on the third floor. We are very grateful to the owner; they even helped us with transportation to Nuogan Ancient Village, even though we didn't drive ourselves. Highly recommended! Wishing the owner booming business!

The ancient village of Lao Dabao is simple and natural. Although Lahu music has been performed on the Spring Festival Gala and the program ”Sisters Who Make Waves” was filmed here, it has not been overdeveloped. The warm and simple Lahu villagers believe in Christianity, and the church is built next to the village stage. Lao Dabao is worth staying for a few days. The rooms in Lao Dabao Inn are spacious. Although the facilities are not comparable to those of star-rated hotels, it feels like you are integrated into the lives of the villagers.

Two nights stay. The next day, I arrived at the room door but couldn't get in after swiping the room card, so I went back to the front desk. The lady at the front desk kept saying, ”You're staying for two nights.” 😭 At 12:20-40 am on the second night, someone was crying and singing in the corridor. I couldn’t understand a word of it. It was very creepy… I called the front desk to inform them of the situation, went upstairs to drive them away, and they came back crying 2 minutes later. It was so frustrating! Is it possible that the hotel has no surveillance in public areas? 😰😰😰

If you want to visit the scenic spots and stay at the tea source, The environment is quiet and the venue is wide. Free tea table to drink whatever you want, The room is clean and has a garden. The boss is so warm and hospitable. Parking facilities are complete. Most importantly, the youngest daughter in the family, It's like an angel descending into the world. Very good, the lady boss is very nice. Very good value for money.

The location of the homestay is in Manghong, the location is invincible 👌, the front is the open basketball court, and the Qiuqi Hotel is a neighbor, walk 50 meters to the broccoli tree, walk a few steps up to the hypothetical tavern, walk a few steps down to guide the traveler canna, from the sour horn tree, there is no tavern, Ah Ling breakfast shop, Donghe barbecue is very close, Walk 5 minutes in the morning to the Octagon Tower to watch the sunrise. All in all, the net red shops seen by Xiaohongshu are nearby. It is much more convenient to cook here than in Mangjing. The boss and the proprietress are Brown people, simple, warm and kind, make tea for us to chat and roast, the two children are also very lively and cute, leaving precious and unforgettable memories here. If it is not for this homestay, it is estimated that it will not be so happy in Jingmai Mountain. There is no habit of evaluation before, but this time it is really from the heart and can't help but leave a good review. If you want to feel the slow life of local residents, the living environment is open, this is right.

Cost-saving version: Great! Excellent! More detailed version: I stayed at this guesthouse for three nights and had a fantastic experience. The guesthouse is very new, located near the entrance of the village, making it very convenient to get in and out. It's just steps away from the village's viewing platform. The interior facilities are complete, and the view from the room window is superb, with a wide-open vista and a view of the sea of ​​clouds. The owner is a young man, a mild-mannered but very nice person, constantly inviting everyone to drink tea (lol). Every night, they would roast corn over a fire outside the guesthouse, very peaceful and comfortable. It's a bit long, but it's all a spontaneous five-star review! I'll definitely stay at Jin Gu La again next time! (Thumbs up)

I rarely write accommodation reviews, but this time I really want to give a shout-out 😊 Our stay at Guesthouse No. 56 in Wengji Ancient Village was exceptionally comfortable! The room was clean and tidy, the bedding was soft, and the view from the window was breathtaking – endless tea plantations and a sea of ​​clouds. The owners, a husband and wife, are the same age as us and we had a lot to talk about. They sell tea and run a guesthouse, and even during the busy Chinese New Year period, they drove us around the sights for free, saving us the trouble of not knowing the roads and finding parking! They invited us to drink tea and chat, sharing our lives and experiencing authentic Bulang ethnic life. Although there was no breakfast, there were small shops nearby, which was very convenient. Wengji Ancient Village was our favorite of all the villages we visited in Jingmai Mountain, and I sincerely hope that no matter how long it goes on, it can maintain its simple and honest folk customs and touching scenery, and not be eroded by commercialization!

All the reviews are true, but it’s not the wooden building that causes it.  Yes, it is very loud and you hear everyone. We’ve stayed in other fully wooden places, it’s worse here. Maybe not the wood but the guests are the problem. Loud Chinese people, walking the stairs with the heaviest pace you can imagine. Maybe help the other guests by hanging some warnings on the stairs: please be mindful for the other guests when walking to your room.  Also loud Chinese tourist on the square below. Not only while eating they scream all over the place, also with the tea ceremony nobody asks them to please stop talking after 23:00/24:00. We were up till 02:00AM because of tea drinking Chinese people at the fire. We stayed in the suite, which is located above the fire pit. Maybe the other rooms are less noisy. At 7AM each morning, somebody ran down the stairs. We think it’s the staff. It wakes you up through your earplugs.  The staff is OK. They are very shy, not rude. They could be more pro active though as we didn’t feel like they wanted to do something.. which is different to rude but also not very friendly.  The other villages around are way bigger and less cozy than Wengji. Also, with this guesthouse being just next to the town, it was perfect to escape the tourists most of the time. We didn’t find other accommodations in Wengji with the same aesthetics as Shishi guesthouse so we can’t recommend other places better than this. Maybe if the guesthouse would invest in trying to keep the noise down under the various guests, with text signs or with clearer house rules (fire pit), the noise problem wouldn’t be as bad.  Maybe if they tried to enthusiast their staff more and keep them from watching Chinese drama shows on their phones all day, they would be a bit more welcoming.  We’ve met a lot of amazing people in Wengji, it’s definitely not the locals that have this behaviour.  Lastly, the suite has a cubicle bathroom in the room, they really don’t clean this well. It smells very bad and just feels dirty all over.  For comfort this place is too expensive, for the location and aesthetics you won’t find better options nearby.
