VENTO · Sunlit Golden Peak Lake View Vacation Hotel ★★★★

📍 No. 95-97 Qingxi Street, Gucheng District, Lijiang

"Stayed here in end Aug where there wasn’t much snow cap on the mountains and a lot of clouds blocking the mountain peaks, but I’d say that the room view is still really nice because there’s sun, lake, mountain, clouds all in one! What we appreciated from this hotel: 1. The views: on day 1, we had afternoon tea (complimentary with our booking) and just enjoyed the view. We also tried to catch sunrise from our bed, and also enjoyed the view over complimentary breakfast at Level 1. 2. The service: this is the most supportive service we’ve ever had among all the hotels in China and other countries we have been to. - transport: They helped us to schedule complimentary pickup transfers from Lijiang train station to the hotel on our first day and from hotel to Lijiang Sanyi airport on our last day. - Taobao: They also helped me a lot with my many Taobao orders, across communicating with the delivery people, collecting (1x a day) from the collection point, returning some items as they weren’t fitting, applying for refund as my parcels still didn’t arrive on the last day etc. - other advice: getting used to higher altitude in Lijiang, how to use the washing machine & dryer, recovering from diarrhoea, whether we can still visit Lijiang Ancient City at night - other hotel items: gave us makeup remover and cotton pads when we had our photoshoot etc. - food: packed breakfast for us when we had day tours that started from 6am and asked us to pick our breakfast if we’re eating at hotel a day before. - housekeeping: they’d ask us if we’d like housekeeping when we waited for our didi to come. For the 6am day tours when reception wasn’t open yet, we texted them for help to tidy the room and we came back to a tidied room when we returned. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Super comprehensive service, we highly appreciated this. 3. Toilet: this toilet has a bidet! We were pleasantly surprised by this. While the area around the hotel is generally still developing, to which one of our Didi drivers said there was growing interest in real estate around the area, among the 3 hotels we stayed in Yunnan so far across Kunming, Dali and Lijiang, this is the best one we have had 😊"

"This is it! After countless disappointing Airbnb experiences, this Lijiang homestay completely changed my mind. It felt just like home, with a spacious bedroom, a washing machine, a Dyson hairdryer, a cozy sofa perfect for watching movies on the projector, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering a breathtaking view of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain the moment you wake up… The breakfast was plentiful and well-balanced. In the evening, the short walk to Lijiang Old Town was truly delightful. ^_^ Found two little cuties ~ see pic ~"

They also provide free charter service to Baisha and Shushe town daily, and helped to carry our luggages.

YIYUN hotel ★★★

📍 No. 97, Xingren Upper Section, Wuyi Street, Gucheng District, Lijiang

"No great views but all in walking distance and easy access from train station by Didi! Visit the pub 300 m on the left side when entering the ancient city for local chinese rock or have your cappucino 100 m from the Hotel! Having a person speaking English facilitated the stay but all personnel were so nice and engaged, that it would probably not have been necessary! Thanks for the tea offered while waiting for room to be dry after cleaning! We see so many good fruit that offering a fruit breakfast instead of a chinese one would be a nice idea! Thanks for the ride to the train station offered!"

yanbianliubaihotel ★★

📍 No. 51, Nanliu'er Village, Sanyi Villagers Committee, Qihe Town, Gucheng District, Lijiang

"Don't be too surprised. I thought there were some low configurations near the airport, old self-built houses. As soon as I came in, I was attracted by the boss’s homestay. The modern and simple decoration, quack style, the oversized front desk can also drink tea, the materials in the room are also very sufficient, all solid wood, smart home toilet, this price is here I can say too good to fight, Later, you must recommend family and friends to come to the airport, and there is a pick-up and drop-off. Like, like, I can still see the mountains in the room I live in. By the way, it is very convenient to eat and drink at the boss's door. It is not too cool to order a few skewers to sit on the terrace at night."

InterContinental Hotels LIJIANG ANCIENT TOWN RESORT by IHG Hotels in Lijiang

InterContinental Hotels LIJIANG ANCIENT TOWN RESORT by IHG

"I had originally booked a guesthouse, but as I passed by, I noticed the InterContinental right next to the ancient city. After checking, I found I could cancel the guesthouse booking, so I decisively booked the InterContinental instead. The hotel environment is absolutely first-class. After checking in at the front desk, there's a shuttle bus to take you to your room. It truly lives up to its five-star standard; the shuttle driver even helped carry my luggage to the room, so I didn't have to lift a finger – very polite. After settling in, I immediately headed to the ancient city. Suddenly, a customer service representative, Miss Cici, called to ask if I was satisfied with the room. I mentioned just one minor issue, and she immediately arranged an upgrade to a better room. I told her not to bother, as I had already used some items in the current room, but she insisted it was no problem. In the end, I happily accepted; the service truly was impeccable. This was my first time in Lijiang, and I stayed at the best hotel. Next time, I will definitely continue to choose a reputable brand like the InterContinental."

ANYU Hotel - Lijiang old Town

"This was my first time in Lijiang, and I chose the An Yu Hotel. My two-day stay was extremely satisfying. The 'An Yu Courtesy' 24-hour exclusive concierge service was excellent. They messaged me in advance via WeChat to ask about my arrival time and transportation to Lijiang, and then arranged for pick-up. The hotel is right next to the South Gate of the Ancient Town, close to the InterContinental and Indigo. Upon arriving at the South Gate, a staff member named Neal (who has a strong service ethic and is excellent) came to greet us. During our stay, it was drizzling, and we didn't think we needed an umbrella, but Neal saw us on the road and specifically chased after us to give us one – very thoughtful! He helped with our luggage, and when we arrived at the hotel, we were offered tea and pastries. Guests can simply sit down and check in. The room was clean, and all the amenities were complete and effective. In the evenings, the entire room had oxygen supply, and although the room was small, it was very comfortable and peaceful to stay in. The complimentary breakfast and afternoon tea were high quality and delicious, but it's important to note that lunch and dinner need to be reserved in advance if you want to dine at the hotel. When checking out, Neal once again helped us with our luggage to the main road, waited with us for our car, confirmed the car number, and even helped load our luggage into the car before saying goodbye. The entire check-in and stay process here was very comfortable. Every staff member was dedicated and provided high-quality service, better than many five-star hotels. I will definitely choose this place again next time."

The location was also great, easy to find and not far from the old town. When returning at night, the area was still brightly lit. The rice noodles for breakfast were delicious, and you could even see the golden glow of the sun on the mountains from the rooftop."

The Bivou Lijiang

"The hotel has a great ambiance, and the service was excellent and very thoughtful. I didn't have to touch my luggage at all; the hotel staff handled everything. The only minor drawback is that the hotel facilities are a bit dated. For a hotel of this caliber, especially with so many international guests, having Dyson hairdryers should be standard, not just 'Laifen'. It was a bit humid, and there was some mold near the sink. However, other aspects of the sanitation were indeed very good. The facilities are probably due for an upgrade. A big plus is that the hotel staff always took off their shoes when entering the room."

"I specifically chose the Lijiang Yundu Homestay for my birthday trip, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations – it truly lived up to the hype. The homestay's breakfast was incredibly thoughtful and well-prepared. It featured comforting and delicious tomato and egg rice noodles, alongside Western-style toast, fresh fruits, vegetables, and yogurt. The balance of meat and vegetables was perfect, and the flavors were light and palatable. Every breakfast was a delightful and satisfying start to the day. Plus, there's a lovely afternoon tea served daily, which was a very sweet touch. 🥰 The view from our room was absolutely breathtaking. I could see the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain the moment I looked up, with layers of clouds swirling around the snow-capped peaks. Below, the lush fields and clear water created a beautiful tableau. We could enjoy this stunning natural landscape without even leaving our room. The room itself was spotlessly clean, and the amenities were refined and complete, making for a very comfortable stay. The staff provided warm and attentive service, taking great care of our entire family throughout our trip. Celebrating my birthday at the foot of the snow mountain, surrounded by beautiful scenery and supported by such thoughtful service, created an incredibly atmospheric and memorable experience. This high-quality accommodation made our birthday trip extra special and truly complete. It's perfectly suited for families traveling with children, and I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Lijiang."

Don’t be fooled by the exterior of the hotel, it hides the beauty of the rooms. The rooms were spacious and were even smart bot controlled. The most welcoming staff was definitely the dog, 金豆, that greets you when you arrive in the daytime. Was a really great and pleasant stay"

Our private courtyard felt like a secluded paradise. Spending each day there reading and sipping tea was truly wonderful. The hotel is also very close to Shuhe Ancient Town, within walking distance, and the town itself is well worth exploring. A big thank you to the hotel staff we encountered during our stay; your warm service made this trip even more memorable."
