Lijiang Designer Hotels

This is a cozy and well-located homestay near two ancient towns — Lijiang Ancient City and Shuhe Ancient City. They offer convenient one-way transport to both, as well as pick-up service from the airport and train station, which is a great bonus. The rooms are spacious, clean, and offer beautiful lake views. The homestay is also equipped with a lift, making it especially convenient for guests with mobility needs. Overall, a highly recommended place to stay!

We had an amazing stay at 朴致酒店 in Lijiang Old Town! We upgraded to the V5 room and it was absolutely worth it — the bed was super cozy, the bathtub was large and relaxing, and the automatic toilet was a nice modern touch. The hot water was consistent, and we loved the high-quality toiletries — the shampoo, body wash, and lotion all smelled great and felt luxurious. The service here was beyond impressive. From the moment we arrived, staff helped carry our luggage through the Old Town to the hotel. We were offered thoughtful touches throughout our stay — delicious afternoon tea, fresh fruit, sweet soup at night, a hearty breakfast, and even laundry service that washed and dried our clothes in just 3 hours! We were truly amazed. All the staff were incredibly polite and helpful, always going the extra mile. They greeted us warmly every day, quickly assisted with our room heating, and gave us genuine advice on what to buy locally. Even on our departure, they helped carry our bags — something we truly appreciated. A special thank you to 小黑, our butler from 朴致酒店. She was exceptional — attentive, friendly, and professional. Her service made our stay unforgettable. Highly recommend this hotel if you’re staying in Lijiang Old Town!

The Anyu Lijiang is exceeded my expectations. The location is perfect because it is in the ancient town and in the quieter and less crowded part. Very convenient. ROOM: The decoration style of the hotel is unique, which not only retains the traditional charm of the ancient city, but also incorporates modern design concepts. The most important is the magnificent view of 玉龙雪山. MEAL: Breakfast: Breakfast is presented in a semi-self-service form. The daily set meal is delicate and beautifully presented. Also, afternoon tea every day, and the fruit drinks available all day, all make people feel considerate and practical. Special THANKS to: SHY - A handsome guy who help picking up the luggage at the intersection. He always appeared with a gentle and caring attitude, which made our whole stay feel at home. Special THANKS to: Helen & KK - Whether checking in or checking out, they are patiently receives us. Their politeness and enthusiasm make us feel warm.

It rained heavily in the evening when we arrived, adding a bit of mystery and romance to the night. On such a rainy night, the chicken and mushroom hot pot carefully prepared by the hotel is not only delicious, but also warms the hearts of the guests. The hot hot pot and the sound of rain outside the window interweave into a beautiful movement. After the meal, the smile of the teahouse lady and the aroma of Pu'er tea spread together. Pu'er tea not only helps digestion, but also adds a bit of tranquility and elegance to the rainy night with its unique charm. The hotel's service team is thoughtful and meticulous. From check-in to check-out, every link is full of surprises and touches. Whether it is the reception at the front desk or the service staff in the teahouse and restaurant, they all provide guests with high-quality services with the most sincere smiles and professional attitudes. Looking forward to seeing you next time!

🌟 A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Ancient Lijiang! 🌟 My stay at Boxin Yunshe·Academic Garden was nothing short of magical! Nestled in the enchanting lanes of Lijiang Ancient City, this hotel perfectly blends traditional Naxi architecture with modern comfort. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and a refreshing cup of local tea—a lovely touch that set the tone for the entire visit. The rooms are a serene oasis, tastefully decorated with wooden carvings, soft linen, and elegant touches that reflect the region’s cultural heritage. I loved waking up to the gentle sunlight streaming through the latticed windows and the soothing sounds of the courtyard fountain. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom amenities were top-notch. What truly sets this hotel apart is its “Academic Garden” concept. The lush courtyard, filled with blooming flowers and ancient texts on display, feels like a peaceful retreat for the mind and soul. I spent hours reading in the cozy library nook or sipping Yunnan coffee on the rooftop terrace, which offers stunning views of the ancient tiled rooftops and distant mountains. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay memorable—whether it was recommending hidden local eateries, arranging a sunrise hike to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, or sharing stories about Naxi culture. Their hospitality felt genuine and heartfelt. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable! You’re steps away from the bustling markets, quaint cafes, and the iconic Sifang Street, yet the hotel remains a quiet sanctuary away from the crowds. Don’t miss their breakfast spread, featuring local specialties like Lijiang baba (savory pancakes) and homemade yogurt—it’s the perfect way to start the day. If you’re seeking a stay that combines culture, comfort, and tranquility, Boxin Yunshe·Academic Garden is an absolute must. I left feeling rejuvenated and already dream of returning!

To sum it up in one sentence, at this price, except for the bathroom hygiene, everything else is perfect. Facilities: The furniture in the room is all wooden furniture with local characteristics and a sense of age. There are large cabinets that can also be used as tables, as well as sofas and coffee tables. I like all of these very much. They feel very heavy. There are both showers and bathtubs, and disposable bathtub covers are provided, which is very thoughtful. Hygiene: The only drawback is the floor and floor drain in the bathroom, which are a bit dirty (see the pictures). The rest of the place was clean and the room was cleaned daily. Environment: The ancient town is not big, and it is very convenient to go anywhere from the inn. There are also many restaurants around. The inn is located in the alley, quiet in the bustling city. You can hear singing before 11 o'clock in the evening, but it will not be very late and will not affect your sleep. The view from the room is superb, especially when the sun shines in in the afternoon. Service: When you check in, staff will help you pull your luggage into the inn on a tricycle.

The location of the hotel is perfect. The room is pretty clean and cosy. The staff is very polite, nice and helpful.

I rarely write about my accommodation experience, but I have stayed in many B&Bs. During the Spring Festival, when there are so many people, it is understandable to expect some small accidents. Even without having any expectations, observing the mind can make us look at things in a new light. The owner is very young, but it was this young owner who left us a very good impression from beginning to end. We valued soft power more, and we had a lot of questions during our stay. The owner patiently replied to us, and in the end, he was so busy that he even arranged for someone to take us to the town entrance. The only regret is that the breakfast was not rich enough and some of the food was not kept warm enough. The last praise is for Da Mai and Nobita, two medium-sized Alaskan dogs. They actually played with our children who are always afraid of dogs. You can tell at a glance that their dogs are raised to be so smart by their loving owners.

Excellent hospitality and services provided by the hotel from first day till the end. Infact they also offered tour services to Jade Snow Mountain and Tiger Leaping Gorge. However the wechat conversation came a bit late as we already book in advance elsewhere. The 270 deg room is the best room with view of Lijiang old town. A bit cold as no heater equipped. But electrical blanket served the purpose. Water with heater. Located on top of the hill. So stepping lots of stairs to reach the hotel from old town. Driver and luggages pickup services provided.
