Banyan Tree Lijiang

Staying at Banyan Tree Lijiang was an absolutely wonderful experience. The service throughout the property was outstanding, especially our personal host Elina—always helpful, responsive, and genuinely attentive. We arrived earlier than check-in time, and thanks to the platform’s assistance, we were able to get into our room ahead of schedule, which made a big difference. As soon as we stepped into the room during winter, it was already warmly heated—such a pleasant surprise. The room itself was spotless, beautifully designed with local charm, and came fully equipped with high-quality amenities. The dining experience truly stood out—the food was exceptional. I highly recommend the spicy chicken, black tofu, and shredded cabbage; each dish was flavorful and well-prepared. The view of Jade Mountain bathed in sunlight is breathtaking, and the ducks and geese around the pond are adorable—perfect for photos. The tennis court is easily bookable, and rackets and balls are available for rent. One small note: the latte art at the café wasn’t quite ready by 10 a.m., but that’s a minor detail. Overall, this stay exceeded expectations—serene, luxurious, and thoughtfully designed. A perfect retreat in Lijiang, and definitely worth returning.

Huge thanks to Nancy for your warm hospitality and attention to detail—your kindness really made the trip memorable. This place feels like a hidden gem, and the value is unbeatable.

Best Li Rezen Hotel (Lijiang Old Town Waterwheel)

Staying at this hotel was like stepping into a living postcard. The moment I walked into the expansive courtyard, I knew this was something special—sunlight streamed through the open sky, trees swayed gently, and the quiet hum of life in a traditional Liangjiang garden wrapped around me. The tea house tucked in the corner filled the air with subtle aroma, and as dusk fell, warm lights flickered across ancient brick walls and black-tiled roofs, creating an atmosphere so peaceful it felt almost magical. The room itself was a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort: smart bathroom features, wooden lattice screens for privacy, and a deep soaking tub that made every bath feel like a ritual. Tiny details—like handcrafted celadon vases and delicate Suzhou embroidery—showed real attention to aesthetic. Location-wise, it's unbeatable: just steps from the foothills of Xiangshan and overlooking Heilongtan Lake, with countless local eateries within walking distance. The front desk staff even offered thoughtful recommendations for authentic Lijiang cuisine. Waking up to birdsong, sipping tea under the shade of a tree, reading a book in the afternoon sun—it’s the kind of slow, mindful escape you don’t find in ordinary hotels. If you love traditional Chinese aesthetics and want a genuine cultural experience, this place is absolutely worth visiting.

Xianyunxi yuexueshan Garden Resort courtyard

This was my third visit to Lijiang, and once again I chose Xianyunxi Yuxueshan Garden Resort courtyard — and I couldn’t be happier.
