Pet friendly Hotels in Jianchuan

Booked the entire courtyard and had all the different rooms. Some had tatami area for tea drinking and projector screens. Middle of courtyard had a swing for children to enjoy. Rooms were spacious and clean. Staff were attentive and helpful. Has washing machine and area for airing the clothes.

I'm already home but still thinking about my three days in Shaxi!!! 1. Location + Parking 🅿️: The guesthouse was very easy to find, and since we drove, we wanted a place with parking. There's a small road in front of the guesthouse where you can park, which was very convenient 😊. 2. Ambiance: As soon as we stepped out of the car and entered, we were pleasantly surprised. It's a very comfortable and stylish courtyard. When we didn't go out, sitting in the courtyard and having some tea was incredibly relaxing. I also loved the room's decor – it was clean, hygienic, and had a subtle, pleasant aroma. There were small tables and chairs outside the room where we could relax. 3. Service: The guesthouse owner, the front desk lady, and the auntie were all super nice and enthusiastic. They gave us great tips for exploring the ancient town, and their daily greetings felt like catching up with old friends. (The breakfast was really delicious!) There's also a super cute cat named Huanhuan at the guesthouse!!!! So spiritual!! And very friendly!!! Every time I came back, I'd look for the cat first, haha!!! Overall, it was a very happy and relaxing trip! If I get a chance to visit Shaxi again, I'll definitely stay here again 🥰.

I enjoyed my stay a lot at the hotel. It is only a few years old. The courtyard is amazing with the pond with fish and gorgeous water lilies. All the staff were attentive and helpful. They helped me get a shared taxi to my next destination. I stayed there on a marketday too, on a Friday. The market is just up the road from the hotel - a ten-minute walk. I was at the market early (too early, about 8:30) and they were still setting up. I drank it all in though and walked up and down about 4 times until noon. The hotel is not in the ancient town itself but about 20 minutes away on foot. The hotel owner has a kind of golf cart and can drive guests up and down. The town of Shaxi is delightful with its beautiful square and streets. Worth staying more than one night. I also went to the Buddhist caves at Shibaoshan this is about 30 minutes away.

I would like to give them 10/10 for everything. Their service and hospitality is above and beyond expectation. As foreigner travellers, their help means a lot to us. Pros: - perfect location. Car can access the inn's front door. - room and facilities: well thought decoration with both modern equipment and traditional decoration items. Also have fridge and projector. - food and drinks: complimentary soft drinks and mineral water are provided. Warm milk brought to room at night. Delicious home made breakfast with generous portion and lovely presentation. - service: perfect and exceptional. They even helped me find car pool contacts for our travel from Lijiang to the inn and then to Dali, and received my online orders. Cons: nothing. I would love to go back to this place and will definitely recommend it to anyone. Also love Cola the cat 🥰

Love this place! So beautiful and peaceful! The view is majestic around, especially if you come on the rooftop. This homestay is very clean and built with attention to every detail, the host is welcoming and very helpful! He helped me to get on bus to Shaxi, and then arranged me the bus to Dali back, it’s so nice of him :) When I arrived, he upgraded my room to a bigger one, because I’ve asked for some space where I can do yoga, so thoughtful of him! The host provided me with drinking water and some fresh fruits as a gift, and my room was cleaned once in a couple of days. Very comfortable stay. I enjoyed drinking tea in my room while looking at the mountains, sun, and watching rain. I’d love to come here again and get to know that serenity in Shaxi closer. I can highly recommend it to my friends (I already did)! Thank you!

I spontaneously decided to stay a night in Shaxi and chose this guesthouse. The owner was incredibly kind. 👍 Knowing that the ancient town has cobblestone streets, and I was worried my luggage wheels would break and ruin the rest of my trip, I contacted the owner. Without hesitation, he came to pick me up in a tricycle, which was a special experience for me as a foreigner. 😃 The property is newly opened and boasts excellent, fully-equipped facilities. The room was very clean and comfortable. The bed and pillows were so comfortable that I didn't want to get out of bed – literally! Consequently, I couldn't drag myself out of bed the next morning to see the morning mist at Yujin Bridge... The succulent plants in the courtyard were thriving, huge, and simply stunning – I was so jealous! The rooftop terrace offered panoramic views; it was beautiful. When checking out the next day, the elderly hostess even apologized for the late-night noise made by the young people staying upstairs. Honestly, I couldn't fully understand what she was saying, but I got the gist, hehe. I assured her it was no problem at all, as I hadn't been disturbed. The granny smiled sweetly; she was adorable. 😊 I really loved Shaxi; one day was simply too short. Next time, I'll definitely stay for a few more days, just to unwind and completely relax. I will certainly choose Gusha Bieyuan again. Highly recommended! 👍

First off, this guesthouse was really clean, and the room I randomly booked even had a small tea table. Secondly, the location is great. We initially chose it just to stay for a night because we wanted to visit Shaxi Ancient Town, but we unexpectedly met a really wonderful owner! In the evening, we couldn't get a taxi to the ancient town, so the guesthouse provided a car to take us there. Later, after we'd gone back to rest, the owner even messaged us to ask if we needed a ride back. Oh, and the guesthouse's own restaurant was also delicious; my sister and I had a fantastic lunch there.

This guesthouse was perfect for our relaxing family trip! We spent our days soaking up the sun, strolling through the ancient town, and then came back to cook up some meals in the kitchen. Their restaurant in the old town was delicious too. And their cat, Dingdang, was just the sweetest! The first thing he'd do every morning was come to 'our place' to beg for cat treats, haha. I really wanted to take him back to Chengdu with us, but he has a big yard at the guesthouse and the owners adore him. So, we bought him the cat food he was used to eating in our room and had it shipped to him. Next time we visit, he'll be 'Big Dingdang'!

Overall, would recommend others looking for a comfortable stay in a quieter part of the town. The staff were kind and helpful but they were a little unclear about how to register foreigners; however, there was no problem in the end. The room itself is nice, complete with several modern amenities and niceties. The window view with seating for tea is especially nice and relaxing, though the street can be a little busy outside. My only complaint here is that there wasn't a room cleaning and free water bottles daily. The one-time use bath towels are a little strange. This hotel is in the outskirts of the town, but it is still a short walk to the main activities of the ancient town, but it is also located relatively close to the main road, so it is convenient to access the car/bus to Shibaoshan and Jianchuan from this location.

A fantastic experience, the most satisfying guesthouse I stayed at during my Yunnan trip. The decor was thoughtful, a blend of vintage and rustic styles, with freshly picked wildflowers in the room. The room layout was very practical. There was a small courtyard, and the rooms had large floor-to-ceiling windows offering expansive views of the fields and mountains. It's a little distance from the ancient town, but not far, and the owner helps arrange shared bikes, making it convenient to get around the surrounding area. The owner prepared the breakfast himself, and it was delicious. Staying here was incredibly relaxing; I was completely satisfied! 👍
