Very satisfied with the homestay, the front desk was very enthusiastic to take us in. It was a lady who also helped us carry our luggage. When we left, we watched us drive out safely. The service was in place. There was a fruit plate every day. Auntie saw that we liked to eat sunshine roses. We gave it to us, and the room was satisfied and quiet. Sleep well.

Guest UserI booked Fanqi B&B after reading online reviews. On the morning of the day I submitted the order, I received a call from the store telling me about the nearby parking lot. I arrived at the B&B that night and found that the small front door was a different world from the inside. The four-entry courtyard has a history of a hundred years. The store owner was very enthusiastic and upgraded our room and introduced the historical story of the courtyard. He also provided us with scenic spots and food guides for visiting Jianshui. The room and bathroom were also very clean, the hot water temperature was very high, the breakfast was very rich and provided according to our requirements. The B&B also provided free Hanfu for us to take photos and barbecue around the stove. Traveling off-peak, there are not many tourists. We found the feeling of home in Fanqi, which made us start a pleasant journey

Guest UserWe had a truly enjoyable stay at this lovely homestay in Jianshui. The hosts were warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. The accommodation was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully arranged, giving us a comfortable place to relax after exploring the town.
The location was perfect—peaceful, yet just a short walk or ride to Jianshui's historic old town, the Confucius Temple, and the beautiful Zhu Family Garden. The architecture and local atmosphere were charming, and we felt like we got a real taste of traditional Yunnan culture.
Our hosts also provided great suggestions for local food and sights, which made our trip even more memorable. This homestay was the perfect base for discovering the beauty and history of Jianshui.
Highly recommended—we would happily stay here again!

Guest User1. **Location: Within Walking Distance of the Night Market, Yet Quiet Inside**
The hotel is right next to Zitao Street Night Market, a 2-minute walk to explore and enjoy grilled tofu or browse for Zitao pottery. It's a 5-minute drive to Jianshui Ancient City and Chaoyang Tower, and about a 10-minute drive to the Seventeen-Arch Bridge and the small train station.
The building is soundproofed. Even with the lively night market downstairs, the guest rooms are incredibly quiet, perfectly balancing the vibrant outside with a tranquil inside.
2. **Design & Instagram-worthy Spots: Jianshui's Top Photo-Op Hotel**
The overall style is a blend of Republic of China-era old mansions and French art:
* **Public Areas:** Feature a vinyl record player, vintage velvet sofas, and brass carved摆件, exuding a classic film aesthetic. There's also an in-house Republic of China-era photo studio with free qipao changes for photos, so no need to rent additional costumes.
* **Architectural Features:** Partial red brick hollow art walls (just like the building structure you photographed) offer picturesque backdrops everywhere. You can fill your social media feeds with photos without even leaving the hotel.
* **Guest Room Details:** Impeccably designed with vintage brass switches and retro table lamps. The soft furnishings are exquisite, blending classical exteriors with modern amenities like smart toilets and intelligent lighting.
3. **Hardware & Facilities: Virtually Unrivaled in Jianshui at This Price Point**
* **Swimming Pool:** A 50-meter standard indoor heated pool with stable water temperature year-round, suitable for family fun or daily workouts. It's complemented by a professional gym, billiards, mahjong room, and a spa, so you can spend an entire day without leaving the hotel.
* **Bedding & Toiletries:** Features Serta spine-support mattresses throughout and Shiseido toiletries, rivaling five-star hotels in sleep and wash quality.
* **Convenience Amenities:** Free charging stations, a self-service laundry room, and free parking, making it very convenient for long-distance road trips.
4. **Culinary Delight: Exclusive 'Free Four Meals a Day' – Experience Authentic Local Flavors**
This is its most distinctive feature: the room rate includes four meals a day, so you don't need to go out looking for food:
* **Breakfast:** Local breakfast items like Zitao steam pot chicken rice noodles, Jianshui grilled 'erkuai', plus a Western buffet.
* **Lunch:** Freshly cooked 'Guoqiao' rice noodles with a full array of ingredients, a taste approved by locals.
* **Afternoon Tea:** Yunnan-style fresh flower pastries with Pu'er/chrysanthemum tea.
* **Late-Night Snack:** Zha Jiang rice noodles, specialty snacks. You can grab an extra meal even after a late-night stroll through the night market.
* The chef regularly introduces seasonal Jianshui ingredients like water caltrops and wild mushrooms, so lazy travelers can simply stay in the hotel and enjoy all the local cuisine.
5. **Soft Services**
The front desk provides free ancient city tour guides, and free pick-up/drop-off services can be arranged during certain times. The service staff wear traditional Republic of China-era uniforms with knotted buttons, creating a unified ambiance. They are quick to respond, and for families with children, they proactively offer child-specific amenities.

I'm a lazy person who rarely writes reviews, but this time I was deeply moved by the owner and his family. Even the cleaning lady was so friendly and lovely. It truly revitalized my solo trip to Jianshui. The hotel is perfectly located, away from the hustle and bustle, yet very close to the train station and the ancient city—just over a hundred meters away. There are many traditional rice noodle shops just outside the door, so you can leisurely fill your stomach before heading out to explore.
When I was going to and from the station, the owner drove a tricycle to the intersection to pick me up, worried about the inconvenience of lugging my luggage, even though it was only a few steps away. In the morning, when they saw me in the room, they asked if I wanted breakfast (my reservation didn't include it). I had already eaten, but the owner insisted on giving me an egg for protein and a box of brown sugar before I left. The ladies said they'd come back next year, and I replied, ”I'll be back in two months!” ❤️
I'm from the north, and this family is so gentle and polite. The entire inn is elegant and grand. The two-story courtyard is surrounded by bougainvillea, where you can swing on the swings, watch the moon, drink tea, and chat—it's so relaxing. The interior is on par with a four-star hotel in the city, with separate wet and dry areas, disposable towels, and brand-new hard and soft furnishings. The air is also very airy. I don't like old, dingy hotels, so this truly felt like home!
Thank you again to the owner for his thoughtful hospitality. He booked me a train ticket in the middle of the night, provided me with food, drinks, and hairbands, and offered travel advice along the way. Please keep driving! I'll be back with friends.
Please see the pictures for the ambiance!

A truly delightful stay!
This stay was a complete surprise! The hotel completely changed my perception of traditional hotels. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I felt the immense care put into every detail.
In terms of hardware facilities, the modern design of the public areas made me feel very comfortable and sophisticated, with no hint of being outdated. The in-room facilities were very complete and comfortable, especially the mattress – it was just the right firmness with excellent support, allowing me to lie down and relax completely, ensuring a super comfortable night's sleep. The whole environment was decorated very warmly, giving a 'welcome home' feeling as soon as you entered.
The service experience was an even bigger bonus. Every staff member had a kind smile, and their service was incredibly warm and attentive. From check-in to check-out, every step made me feel respected and valued.
Overall, this is a hotel with a beautiful environment and excellent service. I highly recommend it to all travelers seeking quality!

It's a hostel with a very homely environment. The manager will invite you to drink tea with him, the courtyard is a very chill area to hang out in and even spend all day to the sound of flowing water and surrounded by plants. There is a kitchen available too, and the manager brings water from the well daily for the use of the guests. The dorm was comfortable and the lower beds have curtains but the upper ones don't.
The manager sometimes organises events for the guests, such as the time when we went picking mushrooms and visited a local market from where we bought more mushrooms which were cooked for dinner, all at a very good price.
The location is excellent, just 1 minute walking to the south gate of the ancient city.
I will not hesitate to stay here again when I come back to Jianshui.
