Had a great stay at this hotel! The staff helped us upgrade the room — very clean, tidy, and comfortable. They also gave us a welcome snack, which was a nice touch. Really enjoyed the stay and would come back again!

I’ve just returned to my home country, and I’m already missing my stay at this Lijiang hotel! The location is perfect—it’s within Lijiang Ancient City but what’s even better is that the hotel isn’t directly in the center of the ancient city, making it super convenient to order Didi rides, which can pick you up and drop you off near the hotel’s doorstep.
Since we stayed for two nights, the owner generously offered us with a pick-up service, which made our arrival so much smoother.
The room itself was warm, spacious, and cozy—with probably the most comfortable bed and pillows I’ve ever slept in!
Response from Property: Thank you very much for your praise and review! Your satisfaction and review make us feel extremely honored and gratified. We will continue to maintain high-quality service and comfortable accommodation experience to allow you to have a wonderful journey here. Thank you again for your support and trust! The entire Banlan family looks forward to seeing you again!

The room is true to pictures and comfortable.
Good communication to arrange for transportation.
For those who don't smoke - quite some smoking in the "lobby/tea area" which is uncomfortable when passing thru. This doesn't impact the room.
Drop off/pickup just at the entry to this inn.
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for choosing our homestay and giving such a good review. We are very glad that you like our service and environment. We will continue to work hard to improve and provide you with a better accommodation experience. I hope you can come again. The whole Banlan family is looking forward to your arrival.

The room is so great, with a nice design, useful amenities, cozy bathtub and spacious space. Hotel owners are well-welcoming and helpful on railway picking up and all services. Also, they set the warm ambience and experiences willingly for all guests through a night barbeque and party. Highly recommend! 👍

I stayed at cure bleeding for 3 nights and met some nice people.
The owners took the initiative to message me on trip app before I arrived (which I regrettably missed out) so check your trip inbox when you’re heading over. The lodging is near to the entrance, a few minutes down the slope and can be recognised by their white coloured short wall. The lodging is family run and Boss’s brother personally came to fetch my friend and I from the entrance. He helped carried our luggage to the lodging (thank you!)
Room is cosy with some automated features (e.g offing of lights using voice command). Pretty nice if you just want to lounge in the room after walking the ancient city. The toilet comes with heated toilet seats with an auto flush system. The lodging provides bathroom slippers to use as the toilet floor gets wet after bathing. Fruits, tea and snacks provided upon arrival (see photo)
Personally prefer their mee xian for breakfast, my day 3’s meexian was good! Boss invited me to join for a drink at the front yard on one of the nights and I got to know some nice people- it’s safe, the boss made it a point to see that I reached my room safely.
To note: the naxi photoshoot is outsourced to a company. It is complimentary with the stay in terms of the shoot plus the make up but they charge for the photos (1 free photo per room, 50rmb for each subsequent photo). We were told at the start and decided to continue for the experience.
Managed to do a comfortable and economical share ride back to Dali through arrangements made by the inn. Overall, there is a personal touch to this inn. Will come again!

The inn is operated by a pair of brothers and their friends. They are friendly and greets you everyday when you leave and enter. They give good advice on what good food there are and what to do in the old town. On the check in day, they gave us tea and snacks in the afternoon and at night they provided hot desserts. They picked us up where our car dropped us at and carried our luggages up on their shoulders to avoid damaging them. The inn was really nice and the room was spacious. It was really relaxing staying in this inn. The location is great too, it is near the exit of the old town so you can easily take taxi. Breakfast was great too, the noodles was delicious. You can ask for non chilli option. Arranged a drop off service to the train station on my last day. But since it was too early, we had to carry our luggages down from the 2nd floor and carry through the courtyards. The cleaner didn’t really clear the hand soap throughout the days, even though we used it a bit. Not much of a prob since we can just use the shower gel. Appreciated that they provided conditioner since most of the hotel/inns that we stayed didn’t provide. Also to note the free costume that was advertised is just a voucher by an external costume rental shop. Free makeup and costume is provided together with one picture taken. But we wanted to avoid the risk of hard selling so we didn’t go.

We had a great stay at Guancheng during our 3 nights there! The staff were very helpful during our stay, helping us with the luggages, and giving us a map and tips on where to go in Lijiang Gucheng! It was nice touch that they had upgraded our rooms during our stay. The rooms were spacious and clean. We loved the proximity of the hotel Lijiang Gucheng, where we went every night for dinner. It was good that the hotel was situated opposite a car park, so the driver could drop us off right in front of the hotel, instead of us dragging the luggage into the hotel. Although the hotel was located in Lijiang Gucheng, but it was quiet and peaceful at night. Definitely highly recommend to stay here in Lijiang!

The B&B I chose by accident this time added points to my trip to Lijiang. The room is very design-conscious. There is almost no wall on the door side. During the day, you can open the curtains to turn it into a fully lighted sun room. The unique courtyard is unobstructed. The entire B&B is uniquely designed, and you can see the thoughtful design everywhere. The boss is very enthusiastic. He went to the north gate of the ancient city in advance to greet me and help with the luggage. He was very enthusiastic to tell me how to visit the ancient city, what routes to take, what to eat, what is worth buying, and what not to buy. He emphasized that you can contact him on WeChat at any time. I asked the boss many times, and he replied to my questions in seconds without getting tired of it. If I come to Lijiang again, this B&B will probably be my only choice

The hotel is conveniently located, the rooms are spacious and clean, and the service is thoughtful.
There is a parking lot opposite the hotel, which is very convenient if you drive.
We arrived at Lijiang Airport around 9 pm. The hotel was responsible for picking us up. As soon as we arrived, we felt safe. After arriving at the hotel, the owner personally greeted us, which was very warm.
The restaurant recommended by the hotel's brother is very 👍Oh, the owner also arranged a barbecue, but I had too much fun and forgot to take pictures😂
I feel very satisfied😊

The inn is on the edge of the ancient city, with very convenient transportation. The room is well-equipped and clean. The staff is also very enthusiastic and helped us introduce the nearby tour routes. The environment exceeded expectations, and there is a small yard at the back. It is really pleasant to sit in the yard and eat breakfast. When we left, the staff also helped us take our luggage and sent it to the roadside. They are really nice and look forward to coming here again next time.
