Fanchenli Inn (Lijiang Dashuiche Branch)

The rooms were all very clean, and the facilities were complete. Plus, the owner was incredibly hospitable and even helped me with my luggage, showing a great attention to detail! And their breakfast? Absolutely delicious! When I was leaving, the owner even gave me a local souvenir! This B&B is genuinely fantastic! I'll definitely be recommending it to my friends! I was just too tired when I arrived to take any photos, haha.

This was my second stay here, and it was just as satisfying as the first. You can tell the owner puts a lot of effort into running the place; the rooms are not only pristine, but some of the amenities have even been upgraded. The location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to the ancient city. Parking right outside makes it super easy to get anywhere. We even noticed a charging station by the entrance and rented an electric scooter to make the most of it. The projector and sound system in the room were like having a private cinema. The hot water was consistently warm, and the soundproofing was excellent, making for a very quiet stay. The owner is genuinely friendly to every guest. I even tried some of the owner's fruit wine – Van Chen Li truly embodies the unique warmth of Lijiang. This is definitely a must-stay place when you're in Lijiang; it's a constantly surprising and beautiful part of the city, worth returning to again and again. I even met new friends here, and we've already made plans for a mountain pilgrimage in the Year of the Ram. We'll definitely be back, and I'll be recommending it to all my friends. Wishing the owner great success!

The owner was very welcoming and the breakfast was delicious. It's also very close to Lijiang Old Town~~ I particularly enjoyed my stay this time! 🤭

This guesthouse is an absolute gem! The room decor is incredibly cozy, with wooden furniture and warm yellow lighting that instantly melted away our travel fatigue the moment we stepped in. The owners are so warm and thoughtful; they sent detailed check-in instructions in advance, upgraded our room for free, and even treated us to drinks, which was a lovely surprise. The location is super convenient, very close to the Old Town, just a short walk to the Grand Waterwheel. I especially loved the guesthouse's courtyard – it was so peaceful to relax there with a cup of tea, soaking up the sun. At check-out, the host even gave us a souvenir, which was such a touching gesture!

The best decision I made on this trip to Lijiang was choosing this guesthouse! It completely exceeded my expectations for comfort, and I absolutely have to recommend it to everyone~ The location is truly unbeatable. It's about a 3-minute walk to the entrance of Lijiang Old Town, so you can always pop back to the guesthouse to rest when you're tired of exploring. The atmosphere, quiet yet close to all the action, is incredibly comfortable. Dining and shopping nearby are also convenient. The biggest surprise was that the guesthouse has its own parking, which is fantastic for those driving, and electric car owners can even charge their vehicles, which is a great bonus! The accommodation itself is beyond reproach. The room was spotless, every nook and cranny sparkling clean, and the bedding was soft and gentle on the skin, ensuring a wonderful night's sleep. The room gets great natural light, and opening the curtains reveals a delightful view. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, and hot water is available instantly 24/7 – comfort is in every detail. There's also a small courtyard in the common area where you can sit, soak up the sun, and enjoy some tea, instantly getting into Lijiang's slow-paced rhythm. The owner's warm hospitality added an extra touch of warmth to our trip! As soon as we booked, they sent precise directions and travel tips. Upon arrival, hot tea and fresh flower cakes were already waiting for us. They patiently recommended excellent restaurants in the Old Town that wouldn't disappoint and picturesque alleys for photos, even offering practical advice for our daily itinerary. Any issues we had during our stay were addressed incredibly quickly, showing their thoughtful and attentive service. We felt completely at ease, like staying at a friend's house, with no sense of unfamiliarity. Finally, a quick note: the owner has a great selection of delicious wines, so if you enjoy a drink, go for it, hahahaahaha~
