Lijiang Inns

Took my mom out for a trip and saw Aling's live stream on Douyin. She came across as very practical, genuine, and unpretentious, so we decided to stay for a few days. Overall, it was a really good experience. As soon as you enter the courtyard, there's a water feature with koi fish, which gives a vibrant and lively feel. The two young men working there were incredibly attentive and patient in answering our questions, and their demeanor was very refined. We also had the good fortune to meet a compatible travel couple, Sister Liu and her husband, at Aling's place. It felt like such a serendipitous encounter for people from the north and south to meet here. In the evening, we gathered in Aling's courtyard to chat, drink tea, and share our travel experiences. It was truly delightful. Thank you, Aling, for bringing us all together!

My three-day trip to Lijiang, staying at this hotel, was an absolutely amazing experience. 🌟 Service: From the moment I booked, I felt pampered. Before check-in, the front desk proactively set up a dedicated service group chat. Even when we were still in Dali, they thoughtfully sent us sightseeing suggestions. Upon arrival, the butler was quick to help with our luggage and provided a detailed Lijiang guide. They also reminded us daily about afternoon tea and late-night snacks at the right time. A special shout-out to ”Millennium Butler” (千禧管家) – so gentle and patient, always ready to help. If he was busy, other butlers immediately stepped in, providing seamless and attentive service. This feeling of being ”collectively pampered” was incredibly reassuring. 📍 Location: Within walking distance of the Old Town and Black Dragon Pool. You can walk to Black Dragon Pool Park and the Big Waterwheel of Lijiang Old Town in two different directions from the hotel. If you want to go to Shuhe or Baisha, a taxi ride is quick and convenient. 🎫 Additional Services: Ticket booking, fair prices. The guesthouse can book tickets for ”Lijiang Impression” (丽江千古情) and nearby horse ranches. We didn't have enough time to go, but I compared their prices with market rates, and the horse ranch quote was very reasonable, saving us both hassle and money. 🍜 Dining: Afternoon tea, late-night snacks, and breakfast – all prepared with care. The afternoon tea pastries were exquisite and delicious (though the selection was fixed, the taste was on point). The late-night sweet soup was warm and comforting, but unfortunately, we were out having fun for three days and only managed to catch it once. The breakfast selection wasn't extensive, but the rice noodles were incredibly fragrant. Paired with the guesthouse's homemade mushroom oil, my travel companion and I woke up early every day just for that dish. We even bought a bottle of the mushroom oil to take home for our family to enjoy with meals. 🏡 Environment: Naxi courtyard, with the snowy mountains in sight. The courtyard is elegant, with beautiful flowers and trees. Just relaxing in the courtyard every morning was a treat. The rooftop directly faces Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and on clear days, the ”Golden Mountain in the Sun” (日照金山) was clearly visible. The room size was moderate, with no unpleasant odors, soft bedding, and a well-designed wet/dry separation in the bathroom. The overall style was simple yet sophisticated, perfectly matching my aesthetic. If I visit Lijiang again, I will definitely choose Doplin once more. It truly transformed a guesthouse into a ”warm home.” I highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Lijiang!

This B&B boasts an excellent location. Waking up and opening the door, you're greeted with panoramic views of the snow-capped mountains and the ancient town. Even the toiletries and tissues in the room are brand-name. Staying here means you can save on visiting other scenic cafes, as the B&B has its own coffee area, and the barista makes excellent coffee. What's more, the staff are all very warm and helpful; they assisted with luggage and offered many thoughtful tips, which put me completely at ease.

Environment: I had no idea I'd be able to see snow-capped mountains before I arrived! It's absolutely stunning here!! The weather has been fantastic these past few days! Service: When we arrived at the ancient town entrance in the evening, the hotel staff had a tuk-tuk 🛺 to help with our luggage 🧳. Cars aren't allowed inside the ancient town, so this service was very thoughtful 💕. Breakfast: The breakfast here is truly excellent!! For main courses, they offer specialty rice noodles and wontons, and even as a late riser, I went down at 10:00 AM and there was still plenty available! The portions are so generous they could double as lunch! Absolutely delicious! Room: The bed is so comfortable, I felt like sleeping the moment I lay down 💤! The front desk lady is also very lovely, her voice is so soft and sweet, and her service is very attentive!

Choosing Jùshè B&B for my Lijiang trip was absolutely worth it! The location is perfect – quiet yet close to the action, just a few minutes' walk to the Big Water Wheel in the Old Town, making getting around super convenient. The courtyard is lush with greenery, and the wooden style is elegant and cozy. The room was great too! Plus, there was a dedicated butler who helped with luggage, made sachets, and was really enthusiastic. He even offered to take us on a tour of the ancient town! It happened to rain during my stay, and listening to the rain at the downstairs bar in the evening while enjoying the complimentary sweet soup from the B&B was incredibly comfortable and created such a wonderful atmosphere. The value for money is outstanding. It's also right next to the entrance of Black Dragon Pool Park, and you can see Jade Dragon Snow Mountain not far away – it's just so ideal for a stay! I'll definitely book here again on my next visit!

Booked a three-room private courtyard for our family. The view from the rooms is absolutely stunning. This hotel truly lives up to its 'mini-Aman' reputation, boasting a charming antique style and top-tier room amenities. There are also plenty of free DIY activities for kids to enjoy. I highly, highly, highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates a beautiful environment. The staff's service is also exceptional. Just a heads-up, the hotel is located inside the ancient town, so cars can't pull directly up to the entrance. However, the hotel staff will come out to help with luggage, and it's only a 5-6 minute walk, which isn't a problem at all. The hotel is just a two or three-minute walk from the Mu Family Mansion, truly in the heart of the ancient town. Thumbs up!

What was a bit frustrating was the odor in the bathroom of the first-floor room. It wasn't strong, but it was quite noticeable, probably from sewage backing up in the summer. I hope the owner can improve that... The bed creaked constantly, making a lot of noise when I turned over. The special items I saw when booking, like fruit and flower cakes, didn't seem to be there, and I was too embarrassed to ask the owner... Anyway, the dog was really cute, and that was about it.

If you're visiting Lijiang's Shuhe Ancient Town, you absolutely cannot miss the amazing Guanxin Inn! The environment here is beautiful, with lush greenery in the courtyard and fresh air that instantly helps you relax. The bedding in the rooms is exceptionally comfortable – a good night's sleep here will leave you feeling completely refreshed! The service is incredibly thoughtful and attentive; no matter what you need, they'll help you out, making you feel as warm and welcome as if you were at home. Step outside the inn and you can immediately experience the ancient town's unique charm and leisurely pace of life, making it perfect for a relaxing vacation and capturing some great photos! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and immersive experience of Lijiang's culture!

The guesthouse has a fantastic location, just a 5-minute walk to the center of the old town. The owner was incredibly welcoming, offering to help with luggage and providing travel tips. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and stylishly decorated. Although it's on the street, it was very quiet at night; the attention to detail was excellent. My stay was perfect for a few days, and the value for money was fantastic. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in Lijiang!

This was truly a unique experience! The price was great, the environment was lovely, and the service was incredibly thoughtful. The front desk lady meticulously explained how to see the 'sunrise over the golden mountains' and how to explore Lijiang. The best part? The guesthouse owner turned out to be from my hometown in Chongqing, and even our neighbor! What a small world, you couldn't make this up. We drank tea in the afternoon and had drinks together in the evening – they were so incredibly hospitable! 😍 Next time I'm in Lijiang, I'm definitely staying here again. The emotional value was off the charts! 💯 Below are some real photos I took this morning. Friends, if you're going to Lijiang, this guesthouse should be your top choice.
