Shangri-La Yanxu Fuoxi Biyuan (Dukezong Ancient City Shop)

The guesthouse overall was exceptionally clean; both the rooms and common areas were meticulously tidied, so hygiene was absolutely not a concern. The staff were also incredibly warm and genuinely helpful, not just superficially polite. They were very patient, thoughtful, and incredibly knowledgeable about Shangri-La. Whether it was recommending attractions, planning itineraries, suggesting the best spots for sunrise/sunset, or finding great places to eat, they always offered advice tailored to the weather, time, and personal preferences. This was a huge help for first-time visitors to Shangri-La and saved a lot of unnecessary hassle. However, there's one thing I'd advise everyone to be aware of in advance: the soundproofing in the rooms is a bit average. If you're a light sleeper, sensitive to noise, or traveling with elderly people or children and hoping for a very quiet resting environment, this might be a key factor to consider. Setting your expectations beforehand would be beneficial. Throughout my stay, the service experience was consistently excellent. Any issues were promptly resolved, making for a very comfortable experience. So, if you're a young person or someone with good sleep quality, I would definitely recommend this place.

Exceeded my expectations! Not only did I get to experience a traditional ******* house, but the front desk ladies were also incredibly warm and helpful. You can ask them for itinerary suggestions and travel tips for Shangri-La. If you leave early for Meili Snow Mountain or Wudi Lake, they even provide packed meals! Plus, there are some really fun little details waiting to be discovered! All in all, you can't go wrong with this place!

My stay here far exceeded my expectations! The front desk staff were all smiles, genuinely warm and friendly, not at all like the impersonal, routine service you often get. When I left, they'd offer thoughtful reminders, and when I returned, they'd quietly and kindly greet me. It felt as comfortable and heartwarming as staying with family or friends. There are also two dogs, Xiaogou and Xiaohu, who always lie lazily on the sofa, looking a bit mopey and longing for a walk – they're incredibly therapeutic to watch. The whole place is bathed in a gentle, warm yellow light, creating a wonderful atmosphere. After a day out, coming back here gave me such a comforting sense of security. I'll definitely choose this place again next time!

The rooms were clean and tidy, and the B&B owners were really nice and offered great service. The location is convenient for all the attractions within the ancient city, and the complimentary breakfast was delicious. The B&B's dog was also very cute!

An absolutely wonderful solo trip! This is my second time at Yanlu, and honestly, coming back here truly feels like coming home. I could sit in the courtyard all day and never get bored; in fact, I wish time would just slow down, a little more, a little more. Finally, I hope everyone at Yanlu is happy every day. Looking forward to our next visit!

Staying at Yanlu was the best decision of my solo trip! The staff are all so gently kind, never making you feel pressured, which is why I loved just chilling in the front desk lobby. Xiao Hu, the guesthouse's little dog, is also super chill and lets you pet him as much as you want – such a good boy! The guesthouse has a lovely Tibetan-style decor, and the courtyard is filled with beautiful plants. Oh, and the humidifier saved my life!

Every staff member at this B&B was absolutely wonderful – so warm and proactive. The breakfast was delicious, the environment was lovely, and they even offered thoughtful pick-up and drop-off services. The value for money is incredible! They even gave out blind boxes with small gifts during the Dragon Boat Festival. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the ancient town!

The room design is very thoughtful, and the facilities and environment are highly comfortable and clean. The service is exceptional; on a rainy day, the owner personally came a long way to pick up and drop off our luggage, and also arranged transportation for our departure. They even selected some beautiful postcards for us. The breakfast is clean and hygienic, and the guesthouse is very tranquil. Sitting there quietly, listening to music, reading a book, and drinking coffee is pure bliss.
