Only a short 1-minute stroll from Shuhe Ancient Town, The Bivou features accommodation in local and modern styles combined together. Blending in by making use of the barbecue facilities, lazing in soothing massage, going horse riding or enjoying a fun time with your children at kids’ club seems like a nice getaway. Free Wi-Fi is available in all areas.

The hospitality and care for the wellness of their guests go beyond expectations and anything I have ever experienced in a hotel. From the first moment of walking through the doors and being greeted by May and HeiMi (the cat), I felt the warmness of stepping foot into Bivou-instantly, I was at a place that felt like home. Right when we stepped through the threshold, we were offered homemade bread (that I could still taste even now) and some delicious apple tea. The ayis (aunties) helped move our heavy luggage into the beautiful room, and spent time introducing the activities in the hotel, activities we could do around Lijiang, and different hikes that we could go on. Our room was so COMFORTABLE - high ceilings, spacious bathroom with a rain shower, clean and woodsy interior, and firm beds with warming mats. The welcome package included lotion, lip balm, and the most comprehensive maps of Lijiang, as well as a binder filled with activities to do. The activities weren't your typical "tourist" activities but they were incredibly curated, local gems like biking to Baishi village and going to see the Naxi orchestra (Nomi helped booked for us! Thank you!). The owner of Bivou is so fun and helpful - she gave us a map for Tiger Leaping Gorge and even helped us arrange a hotel on the trail! For a lot of my stay in Lijiang, I was sick (some food poisoning), but the ayis, especially May, kept me alive - not even exaggerating. They went out of their way to cook porridge for me, recommended and brewed red tea for my stomach ache, delivered homemade soup and dumplings up to the room, and changed the bed sheets at midnight for us. The Bivou cafe was the ONLY place I trusted to eat at because I wasn't feeling well. The food is so healthy, fresh, homecooked with love, and absolutely healing. Bivou is not your typical boutique hotel, not the Banyan, nor the Four Seasons.

Located in Lijiang, 200 metres from Nanmen Bridge, SuShe Inn(2nd Jianshe Inn) provides accommodation with a garden, free WiFi, a 24-hour front desk, and luggage storage space. With garden views, this accommodation features a balcony. The property is non-smoking and is situated 300 metres from Guan Men Kou.

Lovely decor and good location, on the quiet side of the Old Town, about 7 mins walk in from the main road. Breakfast was yummy and generous, and Kaka the host was friendly, responsive, understanding and efficient - whether it was helping us coordinate luggage transport from the main road, arranging breakfast each day (and a takeout bag when we had to leave early), or helping us arrange when our group arrived separately. Really appreciate her patience and help especially with my poor mandarin repeating questions! It made the whole process so much smoother and enjoyable. The rooms were clean and well done up, design was lovely and bathroom facilities Do note that the family including two kids (who were really well behaved, we didn’t hear them during our stay) lives downstairs, and there is a tea room and gym on the second floor along with the guest rooms. Each guest room has its own toilet and shower, and a little sitting area. Lots of good food nearby too outside in the Old Town

    The house is very nice and quiet. It's also convenient to go out for food and take a taxi. The boss is very enthusiastic and helps to book tickets for the Lijiang Eternal Love VIP seat. If you book it yourself, it will go to the audience seat. I suggest asking the boss to book it, and they will recommend friends to stay.

    On the roadside at the entrance of the ancient city, it only takes a few minutes to walk into the old city, which is several hundred yuan higher than the rent in the old city. The housing prices here should not be too cost-effective. The rooms are also quite large, with independent bathrooms. You can have tea and chat with the butler on the first floor when you have free time. There are also chairs in the courtyard on the first floor. Sitting on a chair to bask in the sun when it's out. The whole person is warm now

    I have never experienced such thoughtful service before. The boss said their hotel offers one-on-one butler service. That's right, you will receive a warm reminder from the hotel a few days before check-in, and there is also a pick-up or train service available. All questions can be asked to the butler, who will be very enthusiastic in providing assistance. By the way, their hotel also has a translation machine that can translate languages from dozens of countries, and can basically communicate face-to-face without barriers. Satisfied!
