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 😊"

📍 No. 180 Yunling Section, Yizheng Community, Xi'an Subdistrict, Gucheng District, Lijiang

"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 ~"

9.7 (2,061 reviews)

YIYUN hotel ★★★

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

"The location is ideal, right next to the old town, making it easy to explore without having to drag luggage over cobblestone streets. The hotel staff were incredibly warm and accommodating, taking great care of us and providing a lot of useful information. The breakfast they offered was also excellent value for money. A friend and I stayed here for three nights. It was great! The place was really easy to find. The location is great, easy access to the old town without having to drag luggage through it. Stone roads are charming but hell on luggage wheels. The staff was friendly and kind, gave us a lot of help. It was so relaxing here that it was really hard to leave."

Yanbian Liubai Homestay
10 (48 reviews)

Yanbian Liubai Homestay ★★

📍 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."

9.1 (3,105 reviews)

Pullman Lijiang Resort & Spa ★★★★★

📍 Entrance of Shuhe Ancient Town, North Side of Xiangjiang Road, Shuhe Subdistrict, Gucheng District, Lijiang

"This hotel was definitely the highlight of our Lijiang trip, especially with the lake-view breakfast and afternoon tea directly facing the snow-capped mountains. 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."

"I encountered Lijiang's gentle twilight at the Lanxiyu'an. The floor-to-ceiling windows framed the entire lake and mountain sunset, with the lake, ancient bridges, and distant mountains unfolding in layers.

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