Lijiang FanMiao Inn (Shuhe Ancient City Branch)

**Review of my Stay in Lijiang:** I recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming hotel in Lijiang, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the breathtaking view of the great mountains visible from the rooftop terrace. The sight alone made me feel like I was stepping into a painting. Upon checking in, I was warmly greeted by the hotel owner, who is Chinese and speaks excellent English. His hospitality and attentiveness immediately put me at ease, and throughout my stay, he went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. From recommending local attractions to arranging transportation, he was always there to assist me. The accommodations themselves were comfortable and well-appointed. My room was clean, spacious, and tastefully decorated, providing a cozy retreat after a day of exploring. The hotel's attention to detail was evident in every aspect. One of the highlights of my stay was undoubtedly the rooftop, the panoramic view of the mountains was truly mesmerizing. It was the perfect spot to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of Lijiang. In addition to the stellar accommodations, the hotel's location was also ideal. Situated in a quaint and charming neighborhood, it was within walking distance of many shops, restaurants, and attractions. I appreciated being able to immerse myself in the local culture and explore the bustling streets of Lijiang. Overall, my experience at this hotel exceeded all expectations. From the stunning views to the impeccable service, every aspect of my stay was truly exceptional. I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone looking for a memorable and unforgettable stay in Lijiang. Thank you to the hotel owner and staff for making my trip truly unforgettable. I will keep coming here whenever I manage to have time Thank You.

I've stayed at this hostel for 5 days, in a male dorm once you get that place, you might be noticed that this hostel is a bit far from Lijiang old town but trust me, you will not like Lijiang old town it is too commercialized to feel the Nasi culture, and literally you will be in the middle of human waves, especially at night(cuz night food market is just next to it) Whilst this hostel is located nearest Suhe old town around 2 min away by foot if gate keeper ask you to pay entrance fare ( I never been asked) just take a detour, you don't need to pay also, baisha old town is also close, 10 RMB by taxi hostel owner Willy ( not sure about spelling) he speaks very good English, if you have any questions, he's willing to help you also other staffs are very friendly and nice👍 even there's two cutest cats! ( just if you have cat allergy, be aware of them, they only stay inside of reception room ) the other things you should know is, if you want to visit Jade dragon snow mountain by public transportation such as bus 🚌, you need to take another bus( bus station is just in front of hostel ) to chongyi market ( better need to take the bus here rather than other stations ), and the first bus of the day departs around 8:50 from hostel side so if you want to see earliest Jade dragon mountain, you better need to book an tour program or take 7 persons mini van or Taxi second thing is, I was in the 10 person's dorm and the shower room is inside of dorm, room condition is not 100% perfect, apart from your bed, so if you are the one that cannot sleep easily, maybe not a good choice for you, plus around 8 am, the town has a bit loud sound of Nasi style Azan songs, I woke up by that Azan sound 1 ~ 2 times but all the same, if i have a nice chance, I would comeback to this hostel, probably for long term stay in the future with my partner if you come to this hotel I hope you are also able to enjoy your trip, good luck!🫡
