Great place to stay when trekking Tiger Leaping Gorge. The food was great and they have a lovely terrace with incredible view. It gets cold at nights so bring warm clothes to sleep in.

Perfect location directy on path of tiger leaping gorge. We were upgraded to a room with private bathroom and were surprised how luxurious chinese "mountain huts" are. Hot water shower, heating blanket, ac, wifi in room. They have this beautiful terrasse with delicious coffee and beer and cook good dinner/breakfast that is reasonably priced.

The views from the bar on the top are great. The room is really cold but there is electric blankets that help. Didn’t manage to get hot water

A perfect stay along the upper trail of the three gorges hike. The view from the coffee shop and viewing platform was the best on the whole track! It was Chinese new year when we stayed and they cooked an amazing dinner.

Great stay, really nice room and kitchen / food. We had a great view and the view from the deck is amazing. Only not 5 stars for cleanliness because the toilet is really not great, it’s a half door that looks right out to where people walk and the toilet is just a drain you stand either side of. Just be prepared it’s not the greatest!

I was skeptical about TeaHorse at first due to the lack of reviews but this turned out to be a wonderful stay! We stayed here overnight on our 2 day hike through the Tiger Leaping Gorge.
We upgraded to the Deluxe Standard Room (for extra 50 CNY) since the room is newer and slightly bigger. The ensuite toilet was basic but very clean. The beds were also heated and the aircon could be used for heating and cooling.
The guesthouse also runs a restaurant cooking homecooked meals and a cafe/bar boasting a beautiful view. We felt that the view from TeaHorse was better than the one at Halfway House, which seems to be the more popular resting spot amongst hikers. The view of stars from the cafe viewpoint at night is also amazing.
The staff helped us book a return bus to Lijiang, which left from Tina’s guesthouse the next day. Tina’s was a 4h hike from TeaHorse and we boarded the bus back to Lijiang Old Town with no problem.
Overall a lovely stay and would highly recommend this room as an overnight rest point for hikers.

Basic accommodation (warning to westerners, the bed is quite hard!) but it is a warm safe place to sleep and you will be very happy to arrive here after walking a long first day of the amazing Tiger Leaping Gorge trail!! The staff are lovely, and the guesthouse has a great restaurant (western and Chinese food) and bar.

Decent lodging with very good views. Takes a while for hot water to get running, but glad I had it in my room (I heard other rooms may not have)

Gorgeous view, helpful staff, very good rooftop cafe, great restaurant with some good unique dishes. Try the Naxi breakfast “sandwich.” Overall, it exceeds the expectations of any reasonable person for a place as remote as this. Accommodations are basic but functional. We were there in November and the only sources of heat in our room were slightly hot water and a heating pad on the bed, and that was enough.

The property is located at the first village if you do hiking thru the famous 28 bends. The cleanliness is so so, there was a yellow stain or patch in the corner of my bedsheet. However, the property provided heat-pad and hot shower. It provided wifi in the room, but somehow it connected but no internet.
