Hotéis Boutique em Yunnan, China

Staying in the Jacuzzi Villa was an absolute delight! The Naxi-style courtyard was elegant and peaceful, and the private, temperature-controlled Jacuzzi was clean and comfortable. Soaking under the stars at night melted away all my travel fatigue. I must commend Elin, our butler, for her outstanding service. From coordinating before our arrival to her attentive care during our stay, she was always quick to respond to any needs. She was thoughtful and professional, never intrusive, which truly enhanced the relaxing vacation vibe. The facilities were excellent, and the service was an added bonus – a perfect Lijiang getaway! Highly recommended!

I really loved the hot spring at this hotel, highly recommend it! The pools on the third floor are very exquisite, not crowded, and clean. It was so relaxing to soak in the hot spring after a bike ride – really helped with the fatigue! My best friend and I also enjoyed a hot pot dinner at the hotel, which was a rare and much-needed relaxation. I'll definitely recommend this place to my friends! The scenery downstairs is also incredibly beautiful!

Excellent facilities and service that exceeded expectations! The staff were very friendly. The only minor drawback is the lack of a self-service laundry machine. The hot spring was very comfortable, with options for surfing, massage, and hydrotherapy. It was very relaxing. I will definitely come back again.

1. **Check-in Area:** The check-in counter, or front desk, was quite shabby. The computer keyboard was practically caked in grime, and don't even get me started on the sofa next to it – it looked very unhygienic. 2. **Dining:** The breakfast area was a bit cramped, with just four small tables by the street. If you're a party of more than two, you'd have to sit separately, or you might even have to stand and wait for a table. The coffee, however, was good. I only had breakfast once: a cold quinoa salad (see Photo 6) served with bread that had an overpowering artificial creamer flavor. I had been looking forward to the rice noodles for the next day, but serving didn't start until 8:30 AM, which was far too late for my rumbling stomach. Early risers and those who prefer hot meals should seriously consider other options or make alternative arrangements. 3. **Room (2nd floor) - Noise Issues:** Don't even think about getting any sleep at night. After 11 PM, there was still noise along the street, along with the clanging of the garbage truck. (Seriously, I'd strongly advise against staying in the Old Town.) The next day, it started pouring before dawn, and the sound of the heavy rain kept me awake as well. 4. **Room - Facility Issues:** The room I stayed in was supposedly the quietest in the entire hotel. It featured a large bathtub and a bathroom where the toilet and shower area lacked wet/dry separation. Unable to deal with the wet floor, I decided to shower in the bathtub. That's when I discovered Problem #1: the glass partition was completely transparent, with no curtain or frosted glass. The staff member claimed this was 'design.' Then came Fatal Problem #2: the bathtub had no running water, haha! 😄 5. **Room - Odor Issues:** Upon entering, there was a strong musty smell. The staff claimed it was due to 'raw wood,' but it's been 8 years and it still smells like that? Quite amusing. 6. **Staff (Pre-Check-in):** Before I even checked in, they asked me to cancel my booking on the platform and pay them privately for a discounted rate. I have this in writing. This is definitely a huge red flag, and I'm surprised they even dared to suggest it. 7. **Staff (General):** The individuals themselves were nice enough, but I was surprised to find that all the 'Jixiashan' staff were quite young, without uniforms, and seemingly without direct supervision, which gave a very disorganized and casual impression. 8. **Housekeeping:** I was quite satisfied with the housekeeping. Seeing the clean duvet and towels gave me peace of mind (P.S. the pillows were also comfortable). The hotel's facilities are very old; no matter how clean the bathroom tiles were, they still looked run-down, compounded by the dim lighting. Therefore, I feel the housekeeping staff here really have a tough job. 9. **Building Structure:** One morning, during a heavy downpour, when I opened my 2nd-floor room door, the entrance was essentially flooded up to my heels. It was quite a feat that the water didn't spread into the room. At night, there were no lights, so I had to grope my way back to the room along the dark corridor. It would be quite difficult for someone who doesn't remember their way (see Photos 1-2). 10. **Hotel Amenities:** One night, I heard the guest next door return, unable to open their door with the key, and had to call a staff member for help. They chatted for a bit outside the door before the staff member finally told the guest a 'trick': 'The key needs to be inserted a certain way, and the lock has a particular mechanism...' That's quite a struggle – needing a special technique just to get back to your room! 11. **Minor Details:** The room key had a very large, bulky leather tag attached to it. Absolutely no consideration for travelers on long journeys with limited luggage space. Who would want to carry such a bulky thing around? I originally had high hopes for the 'Jixiashan' brand. When I was in Shangri-La, I heard their Meili store had a collaboration with Kolon, which made me think they had good taste. This Dali Ancient City location is their first store, but it turned out to be such a low standard. Given the daily rate, I guess I understand why. This particular store cannot be found on 'Jixiashan's' mini-program; it's categorized under 'Wang Shenme Chuan Qu Le'.

I came here for a trip, drawn by the mountain views; the official photos looked really impressive. PS: The 'mountain view room' only offers a tiny glimpse of a peak. After booking, I saw online that this hotel has a lot of negative reviews nationwide, but I didn't regret it. After all, the price was very affordable, and next door was the Grand Hyatt, which was double the price. The room decor is very old, you could even say a bit run-down, but the hotel's public areas are very beautiful and well-maintained. I managed to sneak a peek at an empty villa room after a guest checked out. The decor there was slightly better, but the rooms don't have mountain views, though the privacy is excellent. There's a designated spot in the public area for the 'best mountain view' (marked on the ground); it offers the widest view, but only if the weather is good. Breakfast had a wide variety, including Western and Chinese options, plus kid-friendly items like popcorn chicken and pizza. The service was very attentive, though it felt like they might be understaffed during holidays. It happened to be Mid-Autumn Festival when I visited, and in the end, we had to push our own luggage cart. The mooncakes given out for Mid-Autumn Festival were from Kunming Hotel, an old-brand state-owned classic, and they were particularly delicious and not too sweet. Overall, the value for money is really good. However, it's not suitable for those who prefer to stay in their rooms, as the best scenery is in the public areas. After all, if the rooms were renovated, the price wouldn't be this low anymore...

Service: A big thank you to our butler, King, for his meticulous attention to detail – it really made a difference. Room facilities: So many thoughtful design details, including a new smart toilet. I really love a place like this. Tucked away in a Naxi courtyard right by the south gate of the old town, you don't have to drag your luggage over cobbled streets. The moment you step in, the fatigue of travel just melts away. Every corner tells a piece of the Tea Horse Road story – saddles and old suitcases are displayed with understated elegance, avoiding any forced or artificial antique feel. The guest rooms perfectly balance exterior and interior. The wooden courtyard exudes Yunnan charm, while inside, Dyson and Marshall amenities ensure a refined and comfortable stay. Sitting idly in the courtyard, feeling the breeze through the leaves. The bustling life of the ancient town is just steps away, yet behind closed doors, you can enjoy absolute peace. This is probably the best way to travel – where you can reach out and touch the local culture, yet turn around and find a perfectly comfortable place to rest.

This has been the most satisfying B&B I've ever stayed in. The facilities are excellent, the service is attentive, and responses are quick. They offer free high-speed rail pickup, luggage transfer, welcome afternoon tea, and bedtime milk. When we found a drain odor in our room, the staff checked it out and upgraded us immediately, resolving the issue promptly. The toiletries are also high-end, and you can even take home the slippers, bath towels, and regular towels. Aside from the slight noise issue and a limited breakfast selection, everything else was perfect. I would definitely choose Po Xin Yun She again next time.

This stay exceeded my expectations. The breakfast selection was rich, catering to both Chinese and Western tastes, and even offered freshly cooked rice noodles. The ingredients were fresh, and dining with a view of Erhai Lake was a truly healing and leisurely experience. The room's cleanliness was impeccable; the entire space was spotless and odor-free. The bedding was soft, and the bathroom was dry and clean. Housekeeping did a thorough daily tidy-up, paying attention to every detail. The butler service was attentive and efficient, coordinating our itinerary in advance and responding promptly to requests, quickly resolving any needs. They even provided sweet soup and fresh fruit in the evening, adding a heartwarming touch. With its prime Erhai Lake view, it's perfect for both leisurely vacations and short-term stays. A highly recommended choice when visiting Dali.

My and my hubby really enjoyed our stay at Moonlight Courtyard ! They even provide free hanfu for me to take photo at the premises ! Their service is good , breakfast is yummie ! Will definitely come back again when I come Kunming !

One day in Haidong, as if living in a picture frame I stayed in Kunming for two days on the weekend to escape from work Originally, I planned to stay in Haixi for two nights. By coincidence, I had dinner with an old friend at this hotel. I was shocked by the sunset in the restaurant. The key is that such a beautiful restaurant tastes good, so I decisively checked out of the room in Haixi and decided to stay immediately I booked a family room. The room is very large and the bed is super comfortable. The room is in a single-family villa with a large and beautiful terrace garden for taking pictures and watching the sea. There is also a function area downstairs where you can cook and play mahjong. It is very suitable for families or sisters to travel together The afternoon tea served in the sea view restaurant is also very exquisite. Sitting in the restaurant, you can overlook the 19 peaks and 18 streams of Cangshan Mountain. The unpredictable clouds cover the top of the mountain like snow. After a while, they slowly roll over and coil between the mountains like jade belts. Columns of light pass through the sky like crystals. I sat and watched the clouds for an afternoon, and I felt that I couldn’t see enough.
