We loved this hotel. My mum, sister and I, we all loved this hotel. On the day of the arrival, we took a taxi to the closest ancient town entrance point which was around 5 mins walk away from the hotel. We went through a clean and well-built stone pavement, passed some nice shops, stepped down a stone stair, then found this hotel which was next to a clear water path, so we were pleased even when we were approaching the hotel. As soon as we arrived, the hotel owner and her staff gave us a warm welcome by offering us a nice and hot Chinese tea, some flower cakes and some cozy chats. We had a home feeling. The hotel room facilities and communal amenities are first class with a professional taste! The owner and her team offered high standard services to us throughout our entire stay and always willing to help, to provide the useful local information and to book taxi and local show tickets for us etc. All of these made our travelling experience in Lijiang super easy and enjoyable. We highly recommend the hotel and you wouldn't be disappointed...

Hotel is the only 5 stars hotel right in the Old Ancient Town which was the key reason of us booking to stay there. Resort is beautiful with hotel room spread out in various building. Despite of paid for four rooms via Expedia to the hotel six months in advance in full, our rooms were spread out to different units. Our special request of staying close and non smoking room were completely ignored due to very poor arrangement by the reservation desk. It was a terrible experience to star our trip in Lijiang. Besides this , the hotel room and property is in par with five stars hotel.
