Staying at this little gem was one of the most relaxing experiences I've had in a long time. The atmosphere is so peaceful and quiet—perfect for anyone looking to escape the noise of everyday life. The staff went above and beyond: they helped carry our luggage from the car to the room and even walked us back out when we checked out. That kind of personal touch really made a difference. Breakfast was a highlight—great mix of Western and local flavors, with the Lijiang-style rice noodles being absolutely outstanding. I’ve never tasted such rich, comforting broth with perfectly cooked noodles. I also loved spending an afternoon in their cozy tea house, sipping a warm cup of green tea while chatting with friends—seriously calming and rejuvenating. The room details were thoughtful too—the toothbrush was surprisingly high quality (one of the best I’ve used on a trip), and having laundry detergent right on the sink was such a convenient surprise.

Ansu ·Water Woodden Holiday Courtyard
I was completely blown away by this place—my trip plans changed last minute, so I ended up booking a one-night stay in Shuhe with no advance notice. When I arrived late at night, I had no idea how stunning the property would be. Honestly, the photos online don’t do justice to the real charm—the interior design, handpicked decor, and thoughtful details are all top-notch. The owner mentioned that the vintage 1930s sign out front and the Nepalese war chariot inside each cost tens of thousands of yuan—proof of the quality. The garden is lush even in winter, with flowers blooming right outside my room door, adding such warmth to the chilly weather. Breakfast was delicious and fresh, and the bathroom amenities were from premium brands—so luxurious. The only thing? The heating made the air super dry during winter. A small humidifier would’ve been perfect. But overall, this stay was absolutely exceptional. It’s not just a hotel—it feels like stepping into a quiet, beautifully curated retreat. I’d give it 100/10 and will definitely come back if I ever return to Lijiang.

The minimalist yet thoughtful design creates such a calm, relaxing atmosphere—simple but with great attention to detail.

Soaking in hot water while watching the mountain and lake scenery unfold outside—pure bliss. The staff were warm, friendly, and genuinely attentive. This place feels like a true retreat, not just a stay. If you’re visiting Lijiang, this is an absolute must-book. Unbeatable value, unforgettable experience.
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.
