I can’t praise this place enough! Breathtaking views, lovely rooms, great location but what made this stay amazing were the people. The warmth and hospitality made it feel like a family away from home.
The staff helped us arrange all our trips and plans and went out of their way in terms of hospitality.
I would definitely come here again to see my new yunnan family!

Locating at high ground of the ancient town, offering a panoramic view of the charming traditional architecture, with rolling mountains stretching out in the distance—an absolutely stunning scene. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with tea, and had the pleasure of experiencing traditional Chinese tea ceremony with Pu’er tea prepared right in front of us. It was a wonderful and memorable experience. Highly recommended!
Response from Property: Thank you very much for your thoughtful praise! The highland viewing angle you mentioned is really great - standing at the commanding heights of the ancient town, the continuous green tiles and flying eaves are spread out in front of you like a poem and a painting, and the mountains in the distance are like a long scroll of ink. Such a "natural viewfinder" really makes every visitor stop and marvel. I am very happy that you like our tea ceremony reception. The Pu'er ripe tea brewed on site has a mellow fragrance. Each step of warming the cup, waking up the tea, and brewing hides the exquisiteness of traditional tea ceremony. Watching the tea soup gradually become red, thick and translucent in the covered bowl, coupled with the unique quiet atmosphere of the ancient town, is indeed a rare immersive experience. It is our honor to create this unforgettable memory for you! The morning and evening of the ancient town, the handmade old shops in the streets, and the mountain view tea seats in different seasons all have unique charm. I look forward to your next visit to unlock more beautiful details~

The room and amenities were enough to make you feel comfortable. The view from the hotel overlooks the whole Lijiang old town which was amazing. However, there will be a lot of issues if you have more than 1 big luggage as they will only help you carry 1 and you will need to take care of the rest yourself which can be abit inconvenient. The hotel is also quite a walk from Lijiang old town and that too is uphill.
Response from Property: Dear customer, thank you for your review. I am very sorry that there was a little unpleasantness due to our communication problems. We can help you with several suitcases in our inn. When you checked in, you came from another inn. When we picked you up, only one of your suitcases was packed and the other was still being packed, so we helped you carry the packed suitcase first. I told you about the other suitcase. If you need our help after it is packed, you can notify us. As a result, you thought that we only helped to carry one suitcase. Due to our different nationalities, there are also deviations in our understanding of language, which led to this small misunderstanding. I am really sorry. I hope to have the opportunity to serve you again and wish you a happy life.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel inn during my stay at Lijiang. Firstly, I had a free room upgrade during my entire duration of stay. The room I stayed in was immaculate with an extremely well-decorated interior and had a gorgeous view over the entire old town. All amenities (toothbrush, towels, razer, in-room slippers) were provided and replaced on a daily basis.
Additionally, the hosts were extremely friendly and will go out of their way to ensure that you have a wonderful time during your trip. They provided various food and attraction recommendations (all of which turned out to be extremely good!) and even helped to arrange a day tour to nearby attractions, all without any additional middleman costs. All in all, a wonderful experience - this hotel inn will be my first choice pick during my next trip back to Lijiang.
Response from Property: Dear friends, we sincerely thank you for your affirmation and support of our homestay during your stay. Your praise is the source of motivation for our continuous progress. We are very happy that you recognize the cleanliness of our homestay. We have always been committed to providing guests with a comfortable and warm accommodation environment. Your affirmation has made us more determined to do so. We will continue to maintain high standards of hygiene and decoration to ensure that every guest can enjoy a home-like experience. We are honored that you have praised our inn. We sincerely invite you to visit our homestay again. We look forward to providing you with better services and allowing you to spend a better time here. I wish you all the best and happiness every day!

Views on the entire ancient city from the commit sitting areas are excellent. However access to the place is a bit inconvenient as it’s located on a hill side with rocky and narrow path.
Remember to add Sheng via WeChat to get the transport arranged for you from the train station or airport. Sheng is very friendly in attending to our needs.
Cleanliness is very good in overall, however some parts of the toilet could be improved (e.g. shower head was broken).
Response from Property: Thank you very much for taking the time to share your stay experience. We take your concerns very seriously. Regarding transportation, the inn enjoys a prime location in the heart of the ancient city. This scenic road is the only road permitted by government regulations. It's a relatively flat and convenient one-minute walk from the drop-off point to the inn. Your previous route may have caused some inconvenience. We will provide clearer transportation directions during your booking and stay to ensure a smooth and convenient arrival for all guests. We have also conducted a thorough inspection of the bathroom, and all equipment and facilities are currently functioning properly. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by your delayed notification of the shower head issue during your stay. We will increase the frequency of daily inspections to ensure the facilities remain in good working order. Thank you again for your suggestions and for your appreciation of our housekeeper Ah Sheng's service and overall cleanliness. We look forward to serving you again. The entire Xunyin Guanpanjing team welcomes you home again.

Hotel is located on the top of the old town, hence a little climbing is required when exploring towards the direction of the Old Town. Travelling here was ok as taxi can cruise up to the Inn from the other side.
The inn is packed with Smart technology and a nice view overseeing the old town. Service is nice and heartwarming during Tea drinking with 小五. 小五 introduces the city and plans your attractions at the original ticket price. No worries about not able to snag Yulong tickets etc
Response from Property: Dear guests: Hello! Thank you for your 5-point review! Every city always has reasons for people to miss it, every season has scenery that we can’t leave behind, and every hotel has its sweet and warm memories. I hope that Xunyin will be the warmest and most unique one in your memories. ! Come back to Xunyin often and take a look. I wish you well!

Room is good with large full glass windows over looking Lijiang old town. Breakfast is the same every morning so nothing to comment. Location is good just above Lijiang Si Fang Sie but have to climb a lot of stairs each time to get to the town and back. Due to high elevation, we keep gasping for air whenever we climb the steep stairs. For those who don’t mind to climb then it’s quite a good hotel to stay.
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you very much for choosing to stay at our Xunyinguan Ancient City Panorama Hotel and taking the time to share your experience! I am glad to know that you like the design of the guest room. The large floor-to-ceiling windows can really take in the beautiful scenery of Lijiang Ancient City. I hope this adds unique memories to your journey. The hotel is located above Sifang Street, the core of the ancient city. Although you can enjoy a quiet environment and excellent views, it does bring you the inconvenience of going up and down the stairs. We are deeply sorry for this. The high altitude of Lijiang does cause physical discomfort to some guests. Next time if you need it, we suggest that you can take a taxi to the inn, which is more convenient. If you don’t mind a little climb, the unique charm of the ancient city and the characteristics of the hotel are indeed worth experiencing. Thank you again for your sincere feedback. I look forward to the opportunity to provide you with more perfect services in the future. I wish you a happy life!

Loved the stay here, comfortable and service was awesome with hearty breakfast. Easy access to the Lijiang Old Town, the only downside about this location is you’ll have to climb lots of stairs as it’s situated at the top of the hill

Ah Sheng was a great host! He was very engaging and made us feel at home. He also assisted us in making arrangements for tours and gave good recommendations on what do to in lijiang.

We had a great stay here! Service is amazing, hotel staff are super friendly, room is super comfortable and homey.
Just note it’s not for guests who do not like to climb stairs as the location is at the very top of Lijiang Ancient City. For the youngsters, however, is super convenient as it is a 8-15 min stairs downwards to the bar street of Lijiang Ancient City 😊
