"Highly recommended. Certainly one of the best hotel experience I've had. This boutique hotel in the Lijiang Ancient Town (Gu Cheng) has everything u would need, Air-con with functioning heater, Good audio system, DVD, Wi-fi, and computer in the rooms! This hotel was formally an Art House! While keeping the historical design and feel, they renovated the bathroom with luxurious modern fittings! The hotel staffs were excellent, very friendly and helpful. They assisted us in all the things that we need, providing maps, recommending the places the go, things to take note of, and arranging for all our tours and transports! They could even arrange home cook dinner for you at the hotel. The only thing is to book your room/s early as there are only 9 rooms in this hotels and try to get those rooms in the 2nd level as there are less privacy and may be quite noisy for those rooms on the ground level."

"the main downside or upside of the hotel is its location on hill. it is a 3-5 minutes walk uphill from the central square of old town which is buzzling. do not try to walk to hotel on your own as this hotel has no proper signage leading up to the entrance. it is recommend to arrange transfer with hotel as taxis cannot bring you through the pedestrianised old town. they would have to use the hilly road from the other side of the hill near the old town north entrance the panorama view in the morning and evening from the hotel is breaktaking with the mountain range surrounding the low rise tile roof of lijiang old town. the entire property was beautifully converted from an old house with courtyard and balcony. service is friendly and helpful. breakfast is made to order noodle soup or portridge. my room on the upper floor was gorgeous with a small star-gazing glass window on the roof top and a balcony with outdoor table and chairs. the interior design is quite similar to the chic contemporary room design of phnom penh's the 240 hotel, with natural light and local wood. the hotel offers an outside food delivery service which charges only rmb15 where you can order anything from the menu of half a dozen fast food restaurants like kfc, pizza hut and local chinese fast food chain. i ordered two items (no order limit) from the room's landline and within 30 minutes, the food was delivered to my room by the outside delivery guy! it was excellent way to settle into the room and have hot food delivered to you. this hotel is very popular with locals, so i could not even extend my stay after two nights since i enjoyed the place very much.

"Aside from the fact that I found Lijiang to be one of the nicest places in China, this “inn” I would consider worthy of calling a “4-star” hotel. It was tasteful, comfortable, and impeccably clean. It’s relatively easy to find, about a 7-8 minute walk to the South Gate of the Old City; safe because it’s right next to a major artery commercial street, but also not exactly in the busiest center of town (that’s say, another 7-8 min walk further north). I absolutely intend to stay there again if/when I return to this town, although I can’t tell you which room # was the best situated, haha. Lastly, the inn manager “Little Fat” (小胖) was a delightful, friendly, and helpful host. The owner is lucky to have this young man communicate with and treat the guests as well as he does. I would believe it if this place is owned by his family (who knows). He’s always smiley and happy. Which water has he been drinking? 😉☺️ I don’t usually bother writing reviews to be honest, but this place deserves it."

"Wonderful guest house that really made my visit to Lijiang enjoyable. There are a variety of types of rooms in the very large and family-living style guest house. I stayed in both a private and dorm room and they were both very clean and comfortable. I liked the local details like the outdoor kitchen area as well as the home-cooked meal you can get for just 25 RMB. It was huge and delicious, just try it! Location is good, not great, about 15-20 min walk to the ancient town. But if you want to be closer it will cost a lot more! There are plenty of local restaurants and convenience stores around if you need anything faster, however. I was also not the easiest guest- my flight was so delayed I arrived at 5 in the morning; I shipped a package to the hostel and kept asking about when it would arrive; I asked a lot of annoying questions about last minute bookings for buses and tours... despite all of this, the staff/family at Mama Naxi were really gracious and helped me out to no end, pretty much answering every question and obliging every request. I did so much more in and around Lijiang thanks to their help than I would otherwise. Would definitely recommend Mama Naxi as a great place to stay in Lijiang!"

"The owner (Yang Lei) is the best guide you can get around LiJiang, not only does he goes out of his way to help his guests, i.e. picking us up with umbrellas when it was raining, transporting luggages for guests were just some simple examples. Yang Lei has a very good understanding of all the tourist spots in LiJiang and gives a detailed description of various tours available and assists with the booking of these tours. (He assisted with the booking of Lugu Lake, LiJiang QianGuQing for us). There is a tea corner where he would brew tea and exchange conversations with guests on everything under the sun! Room is very comfortable and location is very near to LiJiang Ancient Town. All in all, an excellent place for your stay in Lijiang with an owner with a human touch. "

"We loved our 4 night stay here with "Bob" and "Anna". Their guesthouse is within the old city but down a quiet street where we could escape from the hustle and bustle of the area. They used a translation app to help with communication and were the most hospitable hosts imaginable. We told them what we were interested in doing and they arranged all of our activities there. We were able to do things I'm sure we would not have done without their help, with personalized attention and at a fraction of the price. This was especially helpful because so few people in Lijiang spoke English. Everyone took great care of us. They did our laundry for free. They shared food and drinks with us and would not accept payment for this. Bob and Anna were the sweetest couple. We learned a lot about Chinese life and culture from them. Their place seemed more authentic than most. The room had a desktop computer. It was clean, with a nice, modern bathroom and a big shower. We could sit on the deck outside our room and enjoy the view over rooftops and into other courtyards. Despite what a recent review said, we did not hear any bar noises. It was perfectly quiet. Our bed was a bit hard for me, but with adding a blanket I had no trouble sleeping comfortably. By Western standards, the carpet would need to be replaced in the room, but this seemed to be common in other Chinese places we stayed at. This was by far the least expensive place we stayed at in our month in China, and a tremendous value, even without considering the invaluable assistance and friendship our hosts provided. What makes this place extra special are the people who run it. Their helpfulness and generosity made us feel like guests in a home, with the privacy of a hotel. We have stayed at at all sorts of places all over the world. We can afford the best, but prefer to experience the culture and people, rather than what we have at home. We had this here and were perfectly comfortable and came away with"

"We stayed here for 3 nights. The hotel and room is quite cute. They have tea and cake at reception for guests. Staffs are very nice with 1 guy can speak English quite well which helped us a lot to look for local restaurants. I booked Jade dragon mountain tour and Romantic show of Lijiang at hotel with reasonable price. They also provided free pick up service at train station for us. Great hotel I have known."
