This is a more traditional Chinese Hotel located in the “Old Town” part of Lijiang. If you want to experience living in the Chinese environment you have to stay here. The hotel is more than adequate though the rooms are a bit dated. The hotel Courtyards are a wonderful area to relax and coffee/tea is provided after 11.00 AM. Many... More

I haven´t see the other ones, so I´ll have to take the word of those who have. The rooms are spacious but not very practical - no wardrobes, no comfortable chair, no reading light. The king size bed was a combination of 2 beds with a small step in between due to the different heights, so it really ends up... More

Stayed in this hotel for 4 nights. It is very central in the old town and relatively quiet if away from the club part. Our room was spacious and clean and set in a courtyard which was very attractive indeed. The laundry service was cheap and efficient. However, very few of the staff spoke any English at all and the... More

It was great to stay in this hotel which is right in the middle of the Old Town. Unfortunately, when we were there, there was extensive building work going on which spoiled the look of the lovely building and it's frontage. Also, there was some sort of karaoke going on amongst the unfinished restaurant (health and safety in the UK... More

This hotel is considered 5 star, but I think it's relative to the other accommodations nearby. It's probably among the best on the area but it has its fair share of pros and cons. Pros: great location in the heart of the old town, but not to far from a main street; lively open air bar that comes alive at... More

This hotel has a good location on the edge of the old town but otherwise our stay there was not a positive experience. There is a large construction project happening in the lobby/restaurant downstairs. Our room was very tired - the wallpaper was split down one corner and the carpet was very stained. There were 2 long black hairs on... More

At mentioned in other reviews, this hotel is near the south entrance of the old city. When we arrived in our car we were met at the city entrance by a golf buggy and transported the 200m to the hotel from the gate. Ordinary cars are parked outside the city across the road from the entrance. The hotel is very... More

This hotel is on the south side of the old town and an easy 20 minute walk to the main square, although the crowds can be immense in the evenings. We often saw people (wedding couples) having their photos taken outside the hotel which is very picturesque. The room was large but the carpet was not so clean. The breakfast... More
