Located within 700 metres of Loyalty Arch and 700 metres of Mufu Palace, 夕露古城中心店 XILU INN NANXI - Ancient City Center Branch provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Lijiang. This recently renovated homestay is located less than 1 km from Guangbi Tower and a 4-minute walk from Baisui Bridge. Every room comes with a patio with views of the garden. What impressed me most was SanQian's thoughtfulness—being there as early as 6:15 am to send us off on our tour, checking on us through the day to ensure a smooth trip. She even arranging a takeaway breakfast so we wouldn’t miss a meal. The room was comfortable and, most importantly, safe, which gave us peace of mind throughout our stay. Her warm hospitality and genuine care made our experience smooth and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.

At the homestay, each unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. Great charming little guesthouse! The staff Joye and Cassie speak great English.

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!

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!!
