Xinsu Snow Mountain Qingcheng Panoramic Holiday Club
Returning to Lijiang after a decade, I chose Xinsu Snow Mountain Qingcheng Panoramic Holiday Club in Shizi Mountain—just steps from the Viewing Pavilion—and was absolutely blown away by the entire experience. The Old Town is huge, so I’d definitely recommend checking the map beforehand to plan your sightseeing route. We specifically picked this property because of its stunning views of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and its location on Shizi Mountain. After booking, we reached out to the host with questions about airport transfers and other details—he responded promptly and was incredibly helpful throughout. The guesthouse spans four floors, offering spacious rooms without feeling crowded. There’s a shared rooftop terrace on the third floor perfect for relaxing with tea or coffee, while the fourth floor features a Japanese-style design that’s effortlessly photogenic—every corner feels like a scene from a travel magazine. We stayed in two different room types—one on the third floor with a private balcony, ideal for afternoon lounging, and another on the fourth floor with tatami mats and a low tea table, perfect for sipping tea while gazing at the distant mountains. Each room offers unobstructed views of the snow-capped peaks and the glowing night skyline of the old town. The bathrooms are large, spotlessly clean, and feature unique local touches in the shower setup. The air conditioning and humidifier work perfectly—quiet, effective, and sleep-friendly. Breakfast each morning was simple but memorable: either Yunnan rice noodles or congee with a side of sweet potato. I had the plain congee with sweet potato for several days straight—it was surprisingly delicious. The host mentioned they soak the rice overnight, and what impressed me most was how they actively check in with guests about their preferences for side dishes and adjust accordingly. That kind of attention to detail speaks volumes about their genuine care. From safety and convenience to service quality and overall vibe, this place is absolutely worth returning to—maybe even more than once. I reviewed many options before choosing this one, but after experiencing it firsthand, I’m confident this was the right decision. In fact, it exceeded all my expectations. Thank you to every staff member and especially the thoughtful host—your warmth made this trip unforgettable. Wishing you continued success in creating meaningful memories for travelers from around the world.
