This hotel has a good location on the edge of the old town but otherwise our stay there was not a positive experience. There is a large construction project happening in the lobby/restaurant downstairs. Our room was very tired - the wallpaper was split down one corner and the carpet was very stained. There were 2 long black hairs on... More

At mentioned in other reviews, this hotel is near the south entrance of the old city. When we arrived in our car we were met at the city entrance by a golf buggy and transported the 200m to the hotel from the gate. Ordinary cars are parked outside the city across the road from the entrance. The hotel is very... More

This hotel is on the south side of the old town and an easy 20 minute walk to the main square, although the crowds can be immense in the evenings. We often saw people (wedding couples) having their photos taken outside the hotel which is very picturesque. The room was large but the carpet was not so clean. The breakfast... More

Great hotel and great location, clean room stayed there for 2 night then transfer to KunMing . Easy access to old town LiJiang. Great photos taken during here and nice weather. Get out early morning from hotel and look for the sunrise at the Jade Dragon Snow mountain. Really relax and enjoy the culture and lifestyle of people at LiJiang.....

We stayed here for 2 nights as part of a whistlestop tour of Yunnan, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The hotel is situated towards the Southern edge of the Old Town, and has its own shuttle buggy to take you and your belongings to a convenient drop-off point where you can board your tour vehicle (a car in our case)....

During the winter holidays of 2009, my friend and i had a special reservation because I am an acquaintance of someone. This is a four star hotel which is quite comfortable.

Situated within the Lijiang Old Town, this is a touristy area but very good nevertheless. Excellent location, though you have to walk from the main road to the hotel, unless a golf buggy is available. Central Square in the Old Town is about a 20 minute walk through the little streets. The hotel is set around interesting courtyards which give... More
