Every morning we had free breakfast and every time we were gaven Flower Cake, a famous local dissert cake made of flower paddles, after coming back from a tour in ancient cities.

"Excellent assistance from owner and staff, location great if you like to walk, look and hopefully learn something😀. An upstairs room is possibly better than a courtyard one if you are not partial to late night returnees or check in’s."

"Great stay overall. The hotel is in a really nice location within the resort, with beautiful mountain views and easy access to nearby bars and restaurants. The staff were very friendly and always helpful whenever we needed anything. The rooms were clean, and the bedding was very comfortable, which made it easy to get a good night’s sleep. Would definitely consider staying here again."

Lijiang Hotel JunPoXuan

10/10 Excellent
"It was such a heart warning stay. Loved the host and family’s reception and kindness. The location is perfect, away from the noisy part of the town and yet, on the most beautiful back street, with creek and stone bridge right in the front. Will certainly come back next time in Lijiang."
