Guanfang Hotel (Lijiang Old Town Dashiche)

Helpful Staffs, Good Location, Nice View, Varieties Breakfast

The room was far smaller than expected with a very petite though functional bathroom (without any natural light). The two single beds were small and difficult to sleep in. The air conditioning was old and quite poor. It was difficult to bring the temperature down at night. There was one tiny wardrobe that could not hold much clothing at all. There was no tea, coffee or other benefits of an alleged 5 star hotel. The following day, the cleaners (who were fantastic and very nice) brought us a few biscuits and a plate with a few fruit items on it. Two bottles of water were provided each day. The breakfast had a good selection of possible dishes though the staff did not refill regularly so many items became unavailable during breakfast. The dishes were very Chinese orientated, which was not a problem given that we were the only foreigners in the hotel. The reception staff were excellent, very helpful and supportive.

Good location, nice staffs

This hotel is located within walking distance to the old city of Lijiang. Since it is one of the tallest buildings in Lijiang, it allows a great view of the snow-capped Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. The room itself is comfortable, but you can hear the people from the next room when they talk. The breakfast is good, but it is the same every day. The hotel boats a swimming pool and sauna, but when I asked about them, I was told they are closed.

Great service!

Thanks for the hospitality. The hotel almost clean and in the downtown. We found a good team at the hotel and met us warmly
