"The owner (Yang Lei) is the best guide you can get around LiJiang, not only does he goes out of his way to help his guests, i.e. picking us up with umbrellas when it was raining, transporting luggages for guests were just some simple examples. Yang Lei has a very good understanding of all the tourist spots in LiJiang and gives a detailed description of various tours available and assists with the booking of these tours. (He assisted with the booking of Lugu Lake, LiJiang QianGuQing for us). There is a tea corner where he would brew tea and exchange conversations with guests on everything under the sun! Room is very comfortable and location is very near to LiJiang Ancient Town. All in all, an excellent place for your stay in Lijiang with an owner with a human touch. "

"Due to delays and bad weather, my mother and I arrived in Lijiang from Shanghai after 14 hours of traveling. We were exhausted by the time we got to the hotel at 2am but we were very impressed by the handpicked utilities and extremely comfortable bed! The kindness of the hosts was beyond our expectation. Kaka was always there to answer any questions and reached out to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely visit this lovely family again in the future! "

"The hotel - buildings and interior - is beautiful, set with a picturesque background of the Jade Dragon Snow mountain. It is located just about 10-15 minutes taxi ride from Lijiang Old Town. The room is new and clean, complete with all required necessities. The staff meet basic requirements but I feel that service is the bare minimum of a 4.5 stars hotel - with nothing exceptional or beyond expectation (compared to 3-4 stars hotels we stayed in during this trip which all had service-minded staff which went out of their way to help us and thus making the experience beyond expectation). The hotel has a resident llama and many swans and peacocks too. The Chinese restaurant in the hotel is highly NOT recommended as food was very bland and service was very slow. "

"Stayed at a small local hotel in Lijiang old town for 3 nights before moved to Banyee Tree Lijiang for two nights. In general, Banyee Tree did provide quality service but staff could be more proactive in order to reach five stars service. Unlike the small local hotel where the staff would treat their guests as friend and try very best to accommodate your requirements. In Banyee Tree, when I walking back to my room at night in the rain, I stopped the staff who was on golf car, for the right direction. They just pointed you where to go without offering to take you to the room. While staying at the local hotel, the staff would waited for you at the old town gate upon your call to take you back to the hotel. Another case, when I asked the Banyee Tree staff at the entrance about the possible transportation to another old town nearby, they just said you better asked the taxi for a round trip though there is bus service available. However, when I asked the local hotel for places to visit, they gave me different options and recommend the best and safe options for sole traveler, Having said that Banyee Tree staff at the restaurant, front desk and Spa are friendly and willing to help. Overall I did enjoy my stay at Banyee Tree."

"We loved our 4 night stay here with "Bob" and "Anna". Their guesthouse is within the old city but down a quiet street where we could escape from the hustle and bustle of the area. They used a translation app to help with communication and were the most hospitable hosts imaginable. We told them what we were interested in doing and they arranged all of our activities there. We were able to do things I'm sure we would not have done without their help, with personalized attention and at a fraction of the price. This was especially helpful because so few people in Lijiang spoke English. Everyone took great care of us. They did our laundry for free. They shared food and drinks with us and would not accept payment for this. Bob and Anna were the sweetest couple. We learned a lot about Chinese life and culture from them. Their place seemed more authentic than most. The room had a desktop computer. It was clean, with a nice, modern bathroom and a big shower. We could sit on the deck outside our room and enjoy the view over rooftops and into other courtyards. Despite what a recent review said, we did not hear any bar noises. It was perfectly quiet. Our bed was a bit hard for me, but with adding a blanket I had no trouble sleeping comfortably. By Western standards, the carpet would need to be replaced in the room, but this seemed to be common in other Chinese places we stayed at. This was by far the least expensive place we stayed at in our month in China, and a tremendous value, even without considering the invaluable assistance and friendship our hosts provided. What makes this place extra special are the people who run it. Their helpfulness and generosity made us feel like guests in a home, with the privacy of a hotel. We have stayed at at all sorts of places all over the world. We can afford the best, but prefer to experience the culture and people, rather than what we have at home. We had this here and were perfectly comfortable and came away with"

"Good cheap option for Lijiang. It's a little walk from the Old Town, but definitely within walking distance. You have to enter through a little walkway that's easy to miss. The room was not bad and it was clean. Bed wasn't super comfortable but it wasn't bad, and the room had basically everything that I would need! Shower didn't get that hot, but it was warm enough for a quick shower. If you want to get the best Lijiang experience, pick somewhere that is in the old town. If you just want a comfortable place that's cheap, this is a good option. "

"Wonderful guest house that really made my visit to Lijiang enjoyable. There are a variety of types of rooms in the very large and family-living style guest house. I stayed in both a private and dorm room and they were both very clean and comfortable. I liked the local details like the outdoor kitchen area as well as the home-cooked meal you can get for just 25 RMB. It was huge and delicious, just try it! Location is good, not great, about 15-20 min walk to the ancient town. But if you want to be closer it will cost a lot more! There are plenty of local restaurants and convenience stores around if you need anything faster, however. I was also not the easiest guest- my flight was so delayed I arrived at 5 in the morning; I shipped a package to the hostel and kept asking about when it would arrive; I asked a lot of annoying questions about last minute bookings for buses and tours... despite all of this, the staff/family at Mama Naxi were really gracious and helped me out to no end, pretty much answering every question and obliging every request. I did so much more in and around Lijiang thanks to their help than I would otherwise. Would definitely recommend Mama Naxi as a great place to stay in Lijiang!"
