The host is nice.
The hotel is very basic.
Soundproof system is not as good because theres alot of different noises coming from the streets and corridor and upstairs.
The location is up on the hill, which is abit difficult to climb at high altitude.
Response from Property: Thx for staying with us,hotel is basic and the soundproofing is not good since it’s rebuilt on the base of old local ******* house,next time if u still wanna stay with us,we will have ear plugs for u as we do for the other guests if ever asked :)

One of the Best guesthouse we have been so far in China. It's a typical ******* room and we have been upgrade for free with an amazing room. We even had a heater wich was a first in China. Also, the reception's woman is just AMAZING!! She speaks a perfect english, helped us a lot to plan our trip, recommended us various activities and even booked a ride for us. You must go there while you stay in Shangri-La!

I had a great stay! The highlight for me was the heated bed so I slept well! Claudia help me with everything I need during my stay in Shangri-La. They picked me up and help me with my bags. Though there were some issues with the hotel that’s out of the hotels’ control they made sure that I have a great stay.

The best stay ever! Not only the hotel is clean and located in peaceful area(but the very close to the center), but also the owner is the coolest woman with great hospitality and great mind I’ve ever met. She kindly took me to local places, recommended some good hiking routes, even prepared for breakfast and snacks! Her story was truly inspiring and it’s the voice to be heard. She speaks good English and helped me a lot to understand the region and ******* culture. I strongly recommend this hotel and do hope that many people have a chance to be part of the community she is cultivating!
Response from Property: thx for staying with us for 3 nites,glad that u like everything here too.hope u can enjoy the rest of vocation in Tibet and Gansu and finally get to see the view of the name and painting in ur room

Stayed for two nights, the boss was very nice, actively solved the problem, and made very friendly recommendations for places to visit. The whole courtyard is very *******, and I got a lot of insights from chatting with the boss. I will stay here again next time I come to Shangri-La😘

Due to the time problem of flight and high-speed rail, it was late at night when we arrived at the inn. The weather was cold, but the boss still helped me carry the suitcase into the room. The room was clean and tidy. The boss patiently introduced me to nearby attractions and sent me a lot of precautions on WeChat. Seeing that I was wearing thin clothes, he also turned on the electric heater for me, which touched me very much.
Because I was more playful, I didn’t return until the early morning for two days. The boss didn’t forget to remind me to call the duty staff to open the door. I am very sorry that I always affect the rest of the staff. I solemnly apologize here.
And the dog, I was still afraid to approach it at first, but later I found that it had no malicious intent. Thanks again to the boss for helping me get the takeaway. Once I forgot to lock the door, he locked the door for me. I will come again next time I have the chance

There is nothing to say about Kuozhe Inn except one word "good". The boss directly upgraded the basic room to the largest king-size bed room. The room is clean and sanitary, with electric blankets and radiators. The yak bait blocks made by the boss for breakfast taste like pizza, and the pig intestines are delicious😋 The yak hot pot for dinner is also more authentic than outside, and the price-performance ratio is very high. You can also share meals with the boss's volunteers, which is also great. The boss will give various travel suggestions and plans, and will also help solve various problems. Here I would like to specially mention the Wushi Photography Studio recommended by the boss. The photographer is really great and the price-performance ratio is also very high. I almost missed the agreed time when I went to take pictures. When the boss knew it, he immediately put down his chopsticks and rode an electric bike to take me to the place where I took pictures. It was very heartwarming. I only booked one night, and then I stayed for 5 days until I was about to leave. I will come to Shangri-La again in the future, haha😄

The location is very good. It is just opposite the popular landmark of the ancient city, Xueshan Kitchen. It is very convenient to go to several attractions in the ancient city and walk in the ancient city. The inn is not big. The old house has been renovated with great charm. The owner adheres to the concept of environmental protection, clean and hygienic, and has his own design concept. You can see the Big Buddha Temple and the prayer wheel in the distance from the balcony. This view is unparalleled. I need to praise the owner's meals separately. I actually ate sweet and sour spare ribs! ! ! There is also a yak hot pot with super good meat quality! ! ! I heard from the owner that the high-quality yak meat from Qinghai was specially selected. I drank no less than three bowls of the broth alone. There is also a breakfast specially made by the owner, yak meat bait rolls, which are fragrant. I still miss it after leaving. In short, it is a very cost-effective and humane inn. I will choose it next time I come!

This is the most perfect experience in Shangri-La.
I traveled to Yunnan with my mother and sister. I checked the reviews for a long time and chose this B&B. The owner of the B&B wanted to be an environmentally friendly inn, so except for the wooden toothbrush I wanted to experience, we brought all other supplies by ourselves. The owner also gave us a piece of yak soap because of this. It is a handmade soap that can be washed on the face.
The owner of the B&B is also the person who works hardest to realize her own ideas among the people we met in Shangri-La. She and her partners brought the beautiful scenery of Qinghai into the room and gave the room the most beautiful name; she brought the ******* cuisine she learned Give travelers an experience full of memories; and carry forward the ******* spirit, as if Shangri-La is her hometown.
Her yak hotpot is delicious, and the restaurants she recommends are unforgettable. Listening to her talk about Shangri-La and ******* culture is full of charm. It makes me want to take a flight to go to the last pure land again.
The B&B is not far from the downtown area. You can start shopping in 5-10 minutes. There are also many beautiful ******* clothing experiences around. However, the B&B owner will recommend a more traditional and beautiful ******* clothing photo studio, which is guaranteed to be different from the ones on the roadside. Same.
There is also a museum next to it, the content is also very interesting and it is very real historical information.
Although the room is not big, it is full of warmth. The lock of the room is also very different. You must experience it in person. The keys and locks are made with the aesthetics of the B&B owner and are unique.
The bed is nice to lie on and even has an electric blanket. I love it! Big dogs also like it, and what they like even more is their terrace, which overlooks Guishan Park and prayer wheels. At night, watching them sparkle like a paradise.
In short, I highly recommend staying here, chatting about ******* culture with the host, enjoying her cuisine, resting comfortably in her well-prepared room, and enjoying the wonderful time of Shangri-La with the cute big dog.

What a perfect inn! The room was nice and tidy with complete facilities and a beautiful rooftop balcony. The location of the inn is convenient and not noisy. The boss is nice and chill. He gives a lot of suggestions on travel and food, etc. and takes great care of the guests. If you can bring your own towels and toothbrushes without being asked to provide them, you can also get a piece of handmade yak milk soap as an environmental reward. All in all perfect!

Most of the inns in the ancient city do not have air conditioning. I came here during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of the rain and bad weather, the B&B in Pudacuo was frozen the night before, so I was a little confused. But judging from the reviews, this is the B&B run by a Shanghai girl. As a result, I had the most comfortable night's sleep in a few days. The bed and slippers were very comfortable, and the heater made no noise.
I added my boss as a friend. In my friend circle, my boss used a flashlight to suck his hair while he was cleaning. He is from Shanghai👍👍. The boss’s circle of friends records the disappeared ancient city, the four seasons of Shangri-La, and the daily life with the ******* mastiff. The boss also knows *******, cooks, and runs a zero-waste inn. For me, seeing these daily life has a kind of I'm glad that someone is living a different life than me.
Lijiang and Shangri-La have very different feelings. One has the flowers and roses of Yunnan, and the other has the snow-capped mountains of the ******* plateau. Shangri-La, a place closest to heaven, is a bit vulgar and commercial, but here, you can meet some different people. recommend.
