Shangri-La Zemulong Inn (Dukezong Ancient City)

It was very nice being picked up by Michael from the train station, This service is being offered when you book more than 2 nights. I decided to cancel the second night after I noticed how unclean the room was. This room (king size) needs a deep cleaning. All the pipes were covered with dust, hair was found in the drain on the floor, the carpet had stains, the kettle had molded leaves in it, the sheets had holes. Upon arrival I used the restroom in a just vacated, not cleaned guest room, since the office has no restroom. Front desk Lin and Michael are helpful and friendly, but not always available since they have multiple tasks. This inn is more like a bit of a run down hostel. Pics look great, but reality is that the inn needs more attention. Location was okay, about a five minute walk from the Main Street in Old Town. It’s a place to crash for one night. I think though, if you pay a little more, you could get a better, cleaner place.

Very nice hostel near the old town. We rented trekking equipment. Clean, the toilet is a squatting toilet. Nice owners

The room is clean and vary close to the town easily can walk, recommended

The hotel is well located, about 10 min walk from the ancient city. From the train station it’s possible to take a bus and walk for 10 minutes. It’s very quiet and peaceful, you can rest in the porch swing. The staff is really kind and friendly (speaks English), she even tried to help us find a restaurant. The room was exquisite, all in wood and really clean, with super cute night lamps and all the amenities needed. There’s a bathroom with shower and Turkish toilets. My favourite room of a 3 weeks trip, pity we stayed only one night !

This place looks pretty dope, and location is accessible, near the east fate of dukezong. Overall good place to stay, got a free room upgrade as well thank you.

Our stay here was amazing! Nothing short of phenomenal. Michael (老板）greeted us upon arrival despite our train being late. He gave us many recommendations to make our time in Shangri-La really special. We went together to Napahai Valley, and later on we went to the ******* dining and entertainment experience which was fun and interesting. Our room was very clean, the bed was so comfortable and the water was very hot. The location is also perfect, the hotel is only a 10 minute walk away from the centre of the ancient stone town. The kindness we experienced was the best in China so far, if you are a foreigner we recommend you stay here!
