2-Star Hotels in Jianchuan

The owners are extremely hospitable. We reached late in the night and they offered to cook dinner for us because it would be inconvenient for us to get food at that hour (especially since we have young kids). We had a simple but hearty meal. Breakfast was also lovingly prepared, and the spread was amazing! While the homestay is within walking distance to shaxi ancient city, take note that you have to walk along a dirt path (no lights at night) for about 5 min before reaching the main road. Might be a little difficult if you have young kids. However, the view through the windows plus the hospitality of the owners made it all up for us. Not to mention the entire home is equipped with smart technology! Highly recommended place.

The inn is very quiet, the surrounding countryside is very beautiful, parking is convenient, and it is very convenient to go to the ancient town and Pioneer Bookstore!

this stay was the highlight among the others in my Yunnan trip. the couple running this place is incredibly hospitable and kind despite the language barrier and communicating via translation apps. from my first interaction with the wife, I could sense the care she has for guests. she promptly noted my dietary requirement for Halal breakfast when checking in and provided very delicious, generous, and homely dishes on both mornings. at the same time, she made sure to sincerely apologize for some temporary construction noise in the building next to theirs (and informing me that it stops before evening) as well as offering me to take one of their electric bikes to explore the town. the husband was equally kind as a host: he provided me information about the new year's celebrations in town, arranged the electric bike for me to explore Shaxi when I asked and also made a tasty serving of coffee at breakfast. another highlight was witnessing the infectiously fun energy their little sons bring to the place during breakfast and although I only got the see them resting in their cage, there are also two cute cats living with them. overall, I had an absolutely pleasant stay here with top-notch facilities (heated toilet seat!), beautiful decor, and superb hosts!

First off, this guesthouse was really clean, and the room I randomly booked even had a small tea table. Secondly, the location is great. We initially chose it just to stay for a night because we wanted to visit Shaxi Ancient Town, but we unexpectedly met a really wonderful owner! In the evening, we couldn't get a taxi to the ancient town, so the guesthouse provided a car to take us there. Later, after we'd gone back to rest, the owner even messaged us to ask if we needed a ride back. Oh, and the guesthouse's own restaurant was also delicious; my sister and I had a fantastic lunch there.

This was an absolutely incredible experience. While this was pretty far outside of Shaxi, it was very close to the Shizhongzhwn grottos and Baoxiang temple. The village itself is ancient and very beautiful. There is a reservoir to walk around in and an amazing strawberry farm! The hotel itself was stunningly beautiful, with very comfortable, clean and modern. The owners cooked us a delicious dinner and breakfast that was too much food and so so tasty! We loved their cat and the hospitality was among the best I’ve ever had! Thank you so much! Would recommend 100% if you have a car! Note, we did not have a car and used a didi to get there. To get home, we asked the local coffee shop and they were also very welcome and accommodating. They asked a friend to drive us to see the grottos, temple, and then to Shaxi. He was very kind, friendly, and patient. We had an amazing time here!

The rooms are elegantly furnished and comfortable, and the bedding is of high quality, allowing you to sleep soundly. The courtyard of the B&B has a very good view. You can sit on the lazy sofa in the courtyard and quietly look at the blue sky and white clouds and relax, feeling peaceful and happy. The two beautiful owners of the B&B are very sincere and enthusiastic. They are the first choice for your next stay in Shaxi.

The owner was incredibly kind and friendly. When our booked shared ride service ran into a minor issue, the owner proactively stepped in to help us resolve it. This ensured our smooth arrival in Lijiang, giving us a great sense of security and peace of mind in an unfamiliar environment. The room was well-equipped, and all essentials were replaced daily. Fantastic!

1. The house is located in an ancient town, with an all-wood structure, and a small bar downstairs. The rooms are clean and elegant, the bedding is soft and comfortable, the owner is warm and attentive, and the location is convenient. It was a truly healing retreat during my Yunnan trip – I was extremely satisfied! 2. The rustic wood design is simply delightful, the natural light is excellent, the views are great, and the details are full of thoughtful touches. It was a comfortable and relaxing stay, definitely worth revisiting! 3. Close to attractions, convenient transportation, complete facilities, and the owner's recommended local delicacies were incredibly authentic. This trip was made even more perfect by it! 4. A tranquil and comfortable haven, stylishly decorated without being perfunctory, impeccably clean, and with heartwarming service – a rare and reassuring place during my travels!

I had a fantastic trip there! The place is lovely, built all in wood, with plants and cats all around, and a nice rooftop with a view on the mountains. Everything is clean and it's very silent at night. But the best part came from the guests, I felt like in a family. Unlike my previous hostels in Yunnan, most guests could speak English, which helped feeling closer. A lot of people are staying there for weeks because of the great atmosphere. I stayed only two nights but felt sad to leave everyone.

I was warmly greeted by the owner upon arriving. The location is ideal as it’s right next to the bus stop and only a few mins walk to the old town. It’s also very quiet and tranquil. The room was very spacious, clean, and nicely decorated which gave it a very pleasant ambience. The bed was very cozy with thick blankets, comfortable pillow, and fresh sheets. It was well ventilated with two windows and one of them had good entrance of sunlight and view to the mountains. The room had 2 cushion chairs, a small table, TV, shelf to hang clothes, kettle, water bottles, and other amenities. The bathroom had soap, shampoo, conditioner, disposable towels, cups, toothbrushes, etc. The place is pretty much fully equipped and comfortable. I was provided free water bottles whenever needed and was also able to do my laundry. The owner was very kind, caring, and cheerful. I only stayed two nights and he waited for me at the reception to ensure that I was back safe in the nighttime. I’m a solo female traveler. The service is outstanding and they are willing to accommodate and provide you with anything you need. It’s one of the best places I’ve stayed at in all Asia so far.
