I had a fantastic stay at this hotel set just steps away from Xizhou’s famous fields and winding streets. The staff are very attentive but completely unobtrusive. The filling breakfast, delicious afternoon tea, and evening drinks are a warm and welcoming addition to the historic yet comfortable environment. The room I stayed in was tastefully decorated and cozy. Communication is easy via WeChat if you need translation. I would love to stay here again.
Response from Property: We are honored to receive your recognition. Thank you for staying. XiZhou is a nice place to get rest ,that was peaceful environment like you got. We have excellent service to keep your travel experience.look forward to next meeting .At last, happy New Year to you and hope your work goes on well in Beijing .

This is definitely a boutique hotel with international standard - this hundred years-old mansion is beautifully restored and the internal design is southern France theme. All the details were carefully thought of, making the stay very comfortable and relax. This is a place where visitors can slow down to enjoy the sun, the courtyard and the sevice. There is also a exquisite tearoom on the second floor for visitors to enjoy.
The service team are young yet very professional and impeccable, Mr Wong and his team are the most dependable staff you could ever hope for. The food and beverage is fusion and above average. They were very accommodating to our dietary restriction. The latte is a must try. For the service one receives, the F&B served, it is well worth the money. I hope they continue to keep up with this high standard.

Response from Property: It is a great honor to receive such a high evaluation from you. Our team members are very happy and do not forget the original intention. We continue to maintain and commission services to provide comfortable stay experience for travelers coming from afar。

This is a beautiful hotel. It’s an old building (100 years old) that has been renovated to an exceptional standard with all the modern amenities, such as sound proofed rooms and luxury bathrooms. The staff show a lot of humility, are very polite and helpful. We found our experience there very comfortable and enjoyed the aesthetics immensely. Note, I am english, but am travelling with my Chinese speaking girlfriend.
Response from Property: I am very happy that you chose to stay in our hotel together, and suddenly felt that we need to strengthen our English speaking practice in order to better communicate with international guests and provide services, and thank you for sharing our meal suggestions, remember to come back and play when you have time, and I wish you a pleasant trip in YunNan 。

V pretty hotel and offer wine party at night
Response from Property: Thank you for your choice and support. As a historic building, it's not an easy thing for the hotel to carry out a renovation. We have not only restored its original appearance but also made it more vibrant. The wine party has provided guests with ample leisure time to chat and relax. Wish you an unforgettable travel experience. Looking forward to seeing you next time!

A nearly 100-year-old two-courtyard old house from the Republic of China, the interior decoration style is light French style, the soft furnishings and accessories have been carefully designed, the visual sense is very comfortable, including the work clothes of all the housekeepers, all the service details are worthy of this price. The rice noodles for breakfast are the best I have ever eaten in Dali, no doubt about it. The souvenirs given are not the overwhelming flower cakes, but two bags of handmade candied fruits, the taste of which has won unanimous praise from the whole family. The location is also good. Turn right after the main gate and you will see the wheat field. Turn right again and walk for one minute to the Internet celebrity corner building. If I come to Xizhou again, I will choose Xingzhe Shangju.

Response from Property: Thank you for sharing so carefully and warmly. It is a joy to read and I deeply resonate with you. Xingzhe Country House is a two-courtyard old house of the Bai nationality from the Republic of China with a history of nearly 100 years. During the renovation, we always adhere to the concept of "preserving texture and renewing life", hoping to inject a touch of French romantic soul into the guests from afar in this ancient time. Whether it is soft furnishings, lighting fixtures, or butler uniforms, they are all the result of repeated consideration and careful matching, just to make you feel the unique delicacy and style the moment you walk in. We prepare the soup base for breakfast every day and insist on using fresh local ingredients just to serve you a bowl of authentic Dali flavor. The handmade candied fruits are also made by the Bai ethnic group grandmas we are familiar with, and they are the "little happiness" we want to quietly share with our guests. I am very happy to be recognized by you and your family. Xizhou is a place where slow life is hidden. The old times of the rice fields outside the door and the corner building are all telling the story of this small town. The light, shadow and laughter in the yard are the daily life we most want to spend with you. We look forward to your return. We are still here and keep the lights on for you.

I have been to Dali many times. This is my first time in Xizhou Ancient Town. After comparing various hotels, I stayed at Xingzhe Shangju. The experience was great. The environment is ancient and quaint, the room is comfortable and warm, the facilities are complete, the bedding is excellent, and it was very quiet for two nights. The hotel service is superb. The luggage pick-up and delivery to the high-speed rail station are very considerate. Every day, they will remind you of the activities you can participate in. They are warm and thoughtful. The breakfast has different flavors every day and is very rich. The Bai breakfast is highly recommended. The afternoon tea is rich, the coffee is free, and it is so leisurely and comfortable that I don’t want to leave. I will come again next time.

Response from Property: Thank you for choosing Traveler·Rural Residence as your first stop in Xizhou and leaving us this touching echo. The century-old house hides the direction of the wind and the temperature of the light. We are willing to use the warmth of the Bai people and the romance of the French to properly relieve the fatigue of every traveler. I am very happy that you have harvested the quiet night, rich taste, and our sincere and attentive service here. Picking up luggage at the station, daily handwritten activity reminders, coffee and afternoon tea at your leisure... These subtle details are the gentle tacit understanding between us and you. I hope to see you again next time. The light and shadow in the courtyard will remain the same. We are waiting for you to return in Xizhou to continue this unfinished comfort.

The hotel is located at the foot of Baofeng Mountain. The hotel environment is beautiful. The car can drive to the hotel entrance. There is an elevator in the hotel, which is very convenient for the elderly. The air in Tengchong is also very good, the temperature is comfortable, the climate is pleasant, the facilities are complete, and there is a Little Swan washing and drying machine. The facilities and supplies are of high quality. The hotel is gentle and comfortable. Manager Xiao Zhang and Xiao Xie at the front desk are very thoughtful. The service is quick to solve the problem. In the evening, the kitchen is arranged to prepare millet porridge, flower rolls, and side dishes. The hotel tea room is self-service, which is more humane than other hotels. It is a comfortable, warm, attentive and reassuring hotel. Recommended [applause][applause]

Response from Property: Lucky people who are good at catching beautiful things in life will also encounter beautiful things. It is our honor to meet you in this small town and spend a pleasant time with you. "Go to a place with wind", the wind in Dali means wind, flowers, snow and moon. The wind is the sound of gently caressing the wheat waves, shaking the leaves of green trees, blowing the falling cherry blossoms, and the warmth that comforts people's hearts; Thank you very much for choosing to stay in our "Traveler Shangju • Countryside" hotel this time, and thank you for your comments. Your support is the driving force of our work. We will continue to provide quality services to every guest and strive to do better. Looking forward to your next stay~

A perfect place to stay. 80% of my friend and I's good impression of Xizhou comes from this hotel. It is an old house from the Republic of China, with French soft furnishings, simple and comfortable, as if we were in a movie location in a French colony. Breakfast/afternoon tea/night wine are all served, and the service staff are considerate and polite. At 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening, the whole yard is full of travelers who raise their glasses to the moon and whisper to each other. As a wine lover of C in the morning and A in the evening, the rose wine in the evening is excellent, and the Chilean red wine tastes very balanced, just like this yard. Quiet and elegant, it is a scene in itself, which is a surprise for my friend and I during the trip. I will come to Xizhou again for this yard, and I also thank the service staff for their careful care.

Response from Property: Thank you for describing the wonderful time of this journey so touchingly and delicately. We often say that a good courtyard can make people remember a city; and your words "80% of the good impression of Xizhou comes from this hotel" are the greatest compliment to us and the warmest echo of our insistence on treating guests with heart.
The wooden beams and eaves of the century-old house hide the whispers of the old times, and the light and romantic French soft furnishings make this house seem to jump out of time and space, becoming a filming location where reality and movies meet. We cherish this fusion of "simplicity and modernity" and strive to make every detail - from the Bai ethnic group's handmade breakfast in the early morning to the night party after sunset, can bring you and your friends "just right" relaxation and joy.
Drinking in this courtyard is a romantic and private thing - raising a glass to the moon, whispering and communicating, lights falling on the stone road and the shadows of old trees... We always hope that travelers here are not "staying for one night", but a real "hometown". Perhaps, this is the "quiet and beautiful daily life" that "Traveler" wants to give.
May this wonderful memory in Xizhou last like the aroma of rose wine. We also look forward to your return in the near future to continue the story with this courtyard.

This hotel, which was transformed from a century-old house, integrates accommodation, catering, bars, bookstores and coffee roasting houses. It is both simple and quiet and modern and romantic. It is the best choice for visiting Dali.
From the moment you book the room, all services are meticulous. Communication needs, parking spaces, ancient town reception, afternoon tea at the store, night reception and breakfast are all beyond expectations. Especially the coffee and desserts, friends who came back from France praised it highly, an unforgettable experience.
Every corner of the hotel is full of the breath of life.
The traditional Chinese Bai courtyard and the French romantic decoration style are harmoniously integrated.
The selection of bedding and all details is pleasing. The location is right next to the corner building of Xizhou Ancient Town. Going out is the wheat field and the bustling ancient street. The courtyard and the music played back in the hotel yard are joyful. Sitting in the courtyard to chat in a daze or drink afternoon tea, you can spend a pleasant and beautiful time.
We feel your sincerity and dedication. I will come again when I come to Dali!

Response from Property: Thank you very much for your delicate and sincere sharing. You have described the appearance, atmosphere and temperature of the traveler's rural residence with vivid words. As we read it, we seem to have returned to the afternoon when the sun was shining on the courtyard.
This century-old Bai nationality house carries the temperature of time. On the basis of respecting tradition, we have injected modern life concepts and French romantic style, hoping that travelers will not only "stay for one night" here, but truly "live in life". I am very happy that you and your friends from France have felt our dedication in coffee, desserts, space layout, etc.; I am even happier that the service details we provide can add a touch of reassuring soft light to your journey.
From greeting to farewell, from music to tea fragrance, from field scenery to night cocktail party, these are all our thoughts to you. And your words "I will come again when I come to Dali" are the biggest motivation for us to continue our efforts.
The door of the traveler is always open to those who love life. I look forward to seeing you again and spending more warm moments with you in the most beautiful time in Xizhou.

When I went to Xizhou to book a room, I fell in love with Xingzhe Shangju at first sight. It was exactly the ancient town courtyard I wanted to live in. The service and environment when I checked in were beyond my expectations. The waiter could agree to my request at any time. There was a laundry service, a cocktail party in the evening, and the breakfast was rich and delicious. One night was really not enough. I will choose this place next time I come to Xizhou.

Response from Property: Thank you for falling in love with Xingzhe Shangju at first sight. Just as the streets and alleys of the ancient town always attract people to stop, this small courtyard also awaits every guest with its quaint charm.
From warm service to every attentive detail, our goal is to bring you the most comfortable and thoughtful experience, even the temperature of every glass of wine and the combination of every breakfast. We are also very happy to provide laundry and drying services, so that you can enjoy the beauty of Xizhou easily and comfortably.
Next time you come back, we may prepare more unique little surprises for you. Looking forward to meeting again, let the story of this journey continue to be written in Xingzhe Shangju.

I wanted to stay near Xizhou, and I found this hotel on the map.
I really like it! The service, facilities, hygiene, environment and location are all perfect! There is a wheat field at the door, and you can watch the sunrise in the wheat field in the morning. I have recommended it to my friends and I am looking forward to staying in this hotel next time.
I like breakfast, afternoon tea, evening cocktail party and departure gifts very much, and I highly recommend it! ! !

The rooms are cozy and the service is good. I really like this old building with a story. The public space is also very quiet and has an atmosphere. The daily breakfast, afternoon tea and evening cocktail reception are all very exquisite and have local characteristics. Airport drop-off can also be arranged during the May Day holiday. I am very willing to recommend it to friends who come to Xizhou.

Response from Property: Thank you for choosing to slow down in this old house amidst the hustle and bustle of May Day.
This was a house a hundred years ago. Now, under the sun-dappled corridor, we have prepared breakfast, snacks and a nighttime cocktail party for you - not only a taste enjoyment, but also a presentation of Xizhou culture and seasons. We hope that the service is not only "in place", but also fits your rhythm; thank you for feeling this heart. The arrangement on the day of farewell is only to make your journey more relaxed. I look forward to meeting you again next time and continuing this story in the old house.
