Two of my girlfriends and I had a most memorable stay at Zheyuan from Sept 18-21. Of our week's trip in Yunnan, this homestay was hands-down the best experience, compelling me to leave a review. Room: Our three-person room was large, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. There were two beds, a spacious bathroom (with a Dyson hairdryer I might add!), a work desk, and even a balcony. There was light housekeeping daily so our room was always clean. Since our room was on the second floor and there are no elevators, we were thankful for the owner's help in moving our luggage. Amenities: The owners take great pride in the living space and it shows. From the perfectly manicured zen garden and water features that invite you to relax at any time of day, to the practical appliances - hot/cold water dispenser, laundry machine, fresh fruit and snacks replenished daily... Everything is in immaculate working condition and carefully curated. The tea garden outside is a perfect place for sipping tea with friends (or the owners!) as you're peacefully surrounded by an assortment of colourful flora and greenery. If you're in the mood for a movie, there's a TV room and projector as well. Location: The homestay is a short 7 minute walk from the Shuhe Ancient town entrance which makes it convenient without being overwhelming. Bonus tip: It is just a 5 min walk away from several breakfast spots that open around 6am - this was useful as we had tours starting at 630am. It is also easy to Didi/ taxi from this location to Lijiang Ancient town (about 17 mins by car). Host: This is the icing on the cake. The lovely brother-sister owner duo managing the homestay are the very embodiment of hospitality. From our first day, they went the extra mile to make sure we felt at home - helping us arrange our transport, giving us a warm welcome, providing us solid recommendations for food and tours... The owner took great care of us and was super responsive to all our queries via WeChat and in person. The owner and his sister elevate an already excellent homestay to an especially memorable one. And for that, we are truly grateful. Don't hesitate to give this place a try!

We had an excellent stay at Lijiang Zheyuan Snow Mountain Villa. The villa is brand new and very clean and spacious. The location is very good as it is a 4 minute walk to several breakfast spots and 8 minutes to Shuhe Ancient Town. We prefer this area because it was peaceful, quiet at night for sleeping, in walking distance to several services and not as overwhelming and crowded as Lijiang. However, Lijiang Old Towne is just a 15 minute ride. The best part of our stay was the host. He was extremely helpful with directions, travel ideas, arrangements, restaurant recommendations and more. His help, guidance and hospitality was exemplary. If you are going to Lijiang I highly recommend staying here.
