Pros: We had a very pleasant stay at your property in mid October. The hotel was very well appointed as were many other IC properties we have stayed at. The courtyard was lovely for unwinding after a day of sightseeing or for a morning coffee and meditate. Service was impeccable. The host/concierge is around around but not intrusive. I would like to specially call out Niki Wang that took very good care of us. I had a bit of an accident on cobble stone streets, and Niki helped us tremendously and made us felt like we are home. Again, great property, great people! We would love to come back and stay if we are back in the area again.

Pros: Rooms are fantastic, modern with a sense of place. The service is top and the location is just perfect, at the entrance of the old town. We loved spend our evenings in the suite enjoying in the living room and in the bathroom. The staff is very nice, they help with everything, breakfast, car rental...they had very delicate attentions when we left Lijiang to go to Shangri La preparing us lovely lunch boxes. We highly recommend this hotel for the best best Lijiang experience!

Pros: This resort does (almost) everything to a very high standard - the stand out for us was the staff who had a uniformly excellent attitude in particular Joy Zhu. I shan’t bore readers with the story but Joy’s assistance in solving one of those ‘minor but on holiday hugely problematic issues’ was ‘above and beyond’. The room was excellent and nicely serviced, the breakfast featured a huge choice of goodies and the resort location afforded both a convenient position adjacent to Lijiang Old Town and stunning views of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

Pros: ... I saw the comments, most of the people stayed there was im pressed and provided positive comments. Our problem was we only stayed one night. Which is to short for such nice hotel and town. There are many things to see around the hotel in Lijiang. Only note you have to be aware this hotel is setup like a resort several Chinese typical houses with very individual apartment in chines style, it could be that you room is 5 min walk distance to the main building. If you have time and no trip bookings like us, you should enjoy breakfast slightly later as usual otherwise it could be crowded.

Pros: The location. The breakfast.
Cons: It simes that the staff are afraid of making a mistake with any thing that has to do with money,that they forget that there are gustes at the hotel !! We asked for room service (ok ,it took 45 min...) however 50 min after they mocked on our door at 00:30 !!! (Of course we were sleeping at that time !!!) Only to ask us to sign for the room service....REALLY?????

Cons: One area that the hotel management might wish to give further thought to is the concierge department. I would quickly make clear that the concierge service handled our baggage efficiently; I don’t at all fault what they did. However the concierge service doesn’t really afford the non-native visitor either a route into or supportive resource for exploration of the immediate area. Not much is required but travelling through China we have found other hotels at this level more polished in this area.

Love the pond and fish. Owners are extremely friendly, good English and helpful for tips around Lijiang. Be sure to sit down and relax for a home made wine or tea session, and chat about your trip or even life with them after a long day of walking! Overall, a great place for international travelers.

Pros: We really enjoy our stay very much from the moment we check in and the moment out. Everyday, during breakfast, we have great time together with the guesthouse team and also their help in sharing with us what to buy, what to eat and what to do in Lijiang. It is truly very nice to be treated like a family member whenever we meet since the owner and her team treat every guest well. During our trip, chinese teas, fruits, coffee and their special brew plum wine were free flowing everyday. The atmosphere is like a home to us. After our 4 days of stays, we now plan our next trip with 4 more couples in the near future. For the number of stars, this hotel quality for a full 5 stars. I will be very happy to recommend Jun Bo Xuan Boutique Guesthouse to anyone who intend to stay In Lijiang.

Pros: The owner and staff at this guesthouse are brilliant! The property is located in a convenient and beautiful spot. Our room was very large, full of charm and had nice views of the adjacent river. But it was the way that we were treated that made this a really enjoyable stay. The family own a tea business and the result is that they are happy to offer you a variety of teas all day long! They sit with you and explain the different tea types. You also get to meet the other guests this way. And in the evenings we were treated to their own plum wine. We were really made to feel very welcome. Staying at this property was a unique experience! Highly recommended!

And the hospitality of the host (owner) is accommodating and we had great time having tea made by her and chat about the trip and help on the plan in Lijiang. The family produces and trades own tea in Yunnan as well so I highly recommend to have a cup of tea while staying as well as homemade plum wine that has rich flavor. We even wanted to purchase but it was not for sale. Assorted fruits are also available in sitting area. Surprisingly all of them are complimentary. We will definitely come back if we have another chance to visit Lijiang.
