Situated within 300 metres of Guan Men Kou and less than 1 km of Loyalty Arch, Big Tree Guesthouse - Naxi old style features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Lijiang. With garden views, this accommodation provides a patio. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available. Great charming little guesthouse! The staff Joye and Cassie speak great English. Both of them and all other staff were soo much helpful. They help me to find transfer to Tiger Leaping Gorge, to book tour for Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and even airport transfer. They even give me a list of Halal eateries close to the accommodation! Located in Old Town close to South Gate. Far from the hustle and bustle but close enough to walk to the vibrant area. I extended my stay here because of the hospitality!

With garden views, TIBET Guest house 虎跳峡卓玛客栈 is located in Shangri-La and has a restaurant, a shared kitchen, bar and garden. The air-conditioned accommodation is 8.2 km from Tiger Leaping Gorge. The guest house provides mountain views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. Everything. It is perfect if you want to hike the trails and want to do it over 2 days. Zhuoma and her family looked after our family very well. Her son was our driver who was reliable and punctual. They can help with organising trips. We ended up staying extra two days because we loved this special place and Zhuoma’s hospitality.

Centrally located in Lijiang Ancient Town, Xilu Xiaoxie Inn features cosy accommodation with traditional Chinese furnishings and modern facilities. Free Wi-Fi access is provided in the entire property. Guests can use self-laundry and dryer facilities for free. Everything about this property is perfect. The place feels like home, the bed is clean and comfortable. The room is spacious and the bathroom is clean and very modern. The uncle from the Inn will also meet you at the gate of the Old town and help you out with your luggage. But most of all, Mandy (manager) is super duper friendly and will help you out a lot. She managed to book me a last minute tour to the Yulong Snow Mountain. You can also do your laundry for free! Mandy helped me out to transfer my clothes to the dryer as I was exhausted coming from the day tour. She also prepared breakfast for me to take. This is the best Inn I’ve stayed so far. Will definitely come back!!

Situated within 4.3 km of Erhai Gate and 4.6 km of Jiang Gong Ci, 叁三民宿 features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in da. This recently renovated guest house is located 5.1 km from Yu'er Park and 5.2 km from Dali Foreigner Street. The guest house has family rooms. We recently stayed at this delightful B&B, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming. The room was cozy, impeccably clean。The location was also ideal, close enough to explore nearby attractions but still peaceful and relaxing. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, which is really convenient. Strongly recommended!
