My family and friends had a truly wonderful 5 nights at this accommodation. We arrived early in the day, and the experience from airport to check-in was seamless. The hotel had arranged airport transfer for us, and since cars aren't allowed into the ancient city, they also provided a luggage-carrying service from the city gate to the inn. To our delight, the rooms were already prepared, and they kindly allowed us to check in early—a thoughtful gesture we really appreciated after a long journey. The inn is located in a peaceful alley of the ancient city, yet just a short 10-minute walk from all the main sights. Plenty of great eateries and charming local shops/ within a 2-minute walk. Our rooms were spacious, spotlessly clean, and beautifully designed with a modern yet cozy feel. Everything felt fresh and new, and the heated blankets were a welcome touch on chilly nights. What truly made our stay exceptional were the wonderful owners/caretakers. Their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made us feel right at home. They were always on hand with a friendly smile, ready to help with anything we needed. Another delightful bonus was the unlimited access to coffee, local snacks, and fresh fruits—such a generous and homey touch that really added to the experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. It's a perfect blend of comfort, warmth, and convenience—and I genuinely look forward to returning someday.

I am very particular in choosing a place to stay for our travel. One of the owners, Arlin has been very active in communicating with me through email and wechat, answering all of my queries and requests. So that little act of service helped to convince me to book them. They offered a free pick up service from train station and they also has a porter service to help you carry your luggage all the way to your room. Upon arrival, i was super stoke because the hotel is exactly how they advertised in the website. They offered a bit more contemporary design while staying true to the traditional theme. We were greeted warmly with tea and i guess only the owner can converse in english but the workers arent. But despite the lack of english, we made do with translation app. Our room is spacious and clean with no speck of dust, our balcony is facing the old town street and literally you can just go out from the hotel and immediately shop. The hotel also very modern in a sense that they have a control button for their curtain anddd i cannot stress this enough, they HAVE AUTOMATED TOILET WITH THE FREAKING HOLY BIDET AND DYSON HAIRDRYER. Being a Malaysian, having a bidet is a must so to my fellow Malaysian traveller, im vouching for this hotel. Their toilet paper is 4 ply. They also have washer + dryer machine located at the ground floor, free to use, so another plus point there. I washed my clothes everynight, and then hang out with the owner while waiting for my laundry. They offered free breakfast, but seeing we are muslim, he switched the local breakfast with pastries instead. They always prepared free candies, local fruits and tea at the receptionist which i always took whenever i went out. The location of the hotel is also very convenient, it is very near to the main road, the iconic water wheel and dashi bridge. The attentiveness and care they provided for their guests, answering every questions no matter how silly they sounded, has really won it for me. Will come again!

Extremely satisfied! The boss even upgraded our room type, and we could see Jade Dragon Snow Mountain from the room! The inn is perfectly located, making it convenient for both taking taxis and exploring the ancient city. When we had free time, we could chat and have tea with the boss 😎. The inn is very distinctive. The exterior features a traditional Chinese style, making it feel like entering the Mu Family Mansion. The rooms are modern, equipped with all kinds of smart devices, and extremely comfortable 😸. If we visit Lijiang again, we will definitely book this inn again!
