Diqing Hotels with Pools

It can really be called a manor. It was the most surprising B&B in the entire self-driving journey. The yard is super huge with many fruit trees and flowers. We even picked peaches and grapes to eat. The house is also elegantly built in ******* style and the bedding is comfortable. There are a lot of dried fruits in the lobby, which are delicious! Breakfast is a combination of Chinese and *******, and the yogurt is especially delicious! The proprietress and her family were very enthusiastic. Sister Zhamu sat in the yard and chatted with us after she was busy. The landlady's family moved from Niding Village. You can ask them to help contact Niding Village for the Baima Snow Mountain hiking route. Niding Village is really like a paradise.

We really enjoyed our stay at this place. The view is amazing all around. Our room was beautifully designed, bathroom window facing the snow mountain. The floor heating and fire place makes the whole room warm and cozy. Their property located on a route to the big hike, makes it convenient to check out the mountains and water fall. Super friendly staff, they go above and beyond to meet our needs. Also really loved the breakfast and dinner experience. Home style cooking, eventuating was yummy on the menu. We’ll definitely come back next time we visit Yunnan. This hotel itself is an whole experience to enjoy.

The hotel is located 1 km from the ancient town and is a 10-15 minute drive to the train station. The room was comfortable, and the water pressure and heater worked perfectly. The Wi-Fi was very stable as well. (For foreigners, do bear in mind, if you connect to hotel wifi, you would need to connect to VPN in order to use WhatsApp, IG or Youtube) This is a 9-year-old property, so there are some flaws that can be improved, but that is understandable. My only feedback is about the F&B restaurant; they only have one all-day dining option. Breakfast was alright, with more of a local selection. I stayed for two nights. On the first day, there was staff available to help me and serve my cafe latte order. However, on the second day, I did not see any staff on standby, so I had to make my own cafe latte (I had to froth the milk), which I found awkward. I wish the staff were more well trained, but I understand it is low season and the hotel probably hired part-timers for service. The best highlight of my stay was meeting a lady named Rose He, who is part of the guest services team (i think). She made recommendations on where to go and even found us a local driver to take us around. She was extremely kind and polite. We exchanged WeChat information, and she texted me when the weather turned cold or rainy. She also helped us to arrange complimentary transportation to the train station. It felt personalized. Shangri-La, if you are reading this, I believe she deserves a token of appreciation. She is the true star and a great example of “hospitality.” Overall, we were happy with our stay. Thank you.

I stayed in the suite at this hotel. It was a great and very comfortable stay. Everything about the suite was elegant and built for comfort. The hotel has a restaurant that makes delicious Yunnan inspired dishes. The yak stew and the potato dishes were especially good. The staff was nice and friendly although language presented a barrier. (Thankfully there are translation apps.). The pool was a little weird though. It's presented more like a pond in the middle of the hotel rooms. There seems to be only one access point to the pool and there is zero seating. Its rimmed by plants and trees. Very strange. But thats the only criticism of the hotel. Everything else meets and exceeds expectations of a hotel. And its within walking distance of the old town.

A beautiful hotel situated in the mountains near the Yunnan snubbed nose monkey centre. The staff were wonderful, really helpful with some small travel problems that we had. They were kind and attentive, yet discreet. Rooms were beautiful and the beds very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and we also were served afternoon tea with fruit and fresh biscuits and snacks. We also enjoyed our dinner here. Very recommended!

Stepping into Sangzhu Villa, the traditional ******* architectural style hits you in the face. The carved beams and painted buildings show the profound heritage of ******* culture. The colorful thangkas and exquisite wood carvings tell ancient stories in every detail. It makes people feel like traveling through time and space and being in the mysterious ******* wonderland. The guest rooms are unique, with warm and elegant decorations, soft and comfortable beds, and unique ethnic decorations, creating a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere. The hotel's breakfast surprised me. Yunnan specialty rice noodles are so good! There is also yak milk, which has a rich aroma. Shangri-La Sangzhu Villa is not just a hotel, but also a place for the soul to rest, and the most precious encounter on the journey. Here, you will not only gain a comfortable accommodation experience, but also a deep understanding of Shangri-La culture and unforgettable memories.

The scenery is beautiful, the camp design is outstanding, and there is a heating pad on the bed. It is so comfortable. Knowing that we did not drive, ”Takumi” drove us down the mountain to eat and go back. Xiao Wu was so attentive and considerate to help us carry our luggage. If it rained, he would put it away in advance. He gave us a good umbrella and went to the camp restaurant in the evening. Thank you for drinking and chatting with us to relieve our boredom. He also escorted us out of the door. I really appreciated the boss's character and he was so funny. Although a few days have passed, I still can't forget the scenery of the camp. I hope I can come again next time. Finally, thank you for making our memories more colorful.

The boss is very good, free upgraded river view room, you can see the green river directly on the balcony. In the evening, I was invited to eat the annual meal on the first day of the New Year. I was moved 😹. After the meal, I was taken to participate in their gathering with Tibetans. It was very local. Back on the big terrace at night, lying on the sofa and watching the stars, I learned to recognize Orion 😀 The room was large and clean, all new, the air conditioner was a cabinet, and the room was very warm. I believe the garden below will be beautiful in summer, and there will be a swimming pool.

We were searching for a nice spa place in Shangri-la. I have no doubt that this is the best one. Amazing views to the snow mountain from the top spa (available for all) and a very nice private spa as well. Not only did we get a nice spa experience, the host but drove us to a path to overview the city plus also offered us special help to go for a hike the next day to a beautiful location that will be forever imprinted in our minds. Thank you so much!
