Leisure YueGuLou Inn

Charming inn with lots of characters. Excellent food, ambience and service. Served piping hot, smooth and delicious noodles for breakfast every morning which we going to miss very much. They even arranged to carry all your luggage to the inn which believe me is no easy task considering the cobblestone streets in this ancient town. We were well taken care of which we appreciate very much. Thumbs up 👍

Located in the heart of the old town, in a higher position you can have a overview of the city (from the restaurant). Any accommodation in the old town is not too easy to find. But after you find this hotel, you have a very good location, because it's near the main alley. Follow the main tip (starting from water well or main square). The hotel has 2 entrances. Many stairs up and down. The room we choosen face a patio. The decoration is beautiful and rustic. Mattress, bed linen and towels are super comfortable. Breakfast is Chinese style. Water and cleaning everyday. Staff super polite and helpful all the time. Would definitely choose this accommodation again.

What a pleasure it was to stay at 阅古楼 Leisure Yuegu Lou Inn! At a whim, i decided to stay at this Inn which is at the edge of the ancient town of Lijiang. And it was a wonderful choice. Mr Zheng the manager was friendly and helpful. He gave me clear directions to the place as the Inn is situated on a hill, helped me with the luggage and even surprised me with a room upgrade. There is a restaurant that serves hotpot and other visually appealing delicacies at reasonable prices, which is convenient for guests. The Inn overlooks the ancient city, which is another rewarding factor. In addition, the management provides a professional photographer to take pictures of their guests free of charge. The restaurant staff were also welcoming and helped to take pictures. As for the room, it has nice rustic decor, comfortable sheets, and more than basic amenities are there. Although an ashtray is available, i didn't smell any cigarette smoke, which is a big plus for me. The room comes with a humidifier, an additional heater, even a toilet warmer! In the morning, i woke up early to catch the sunrise. Because of the location, i was able to see the sunrise as it peeks out of the mountains and at various vantage points from the restaurant balcony. Definitely one of the delightful highlights of this trip. The manager recommended a very affordable excursion at the city outskirt to go horseback riding, canoe paddling, take pictures with alpacas and enjoy a serene day. I was also helped with getting a ticket at a discoubted price to a show by Mr Zheng. To sum, this has been a WONDERFUl stay in Lijiang. If you want a hotel stay in a place that offers the best views of the ancient city of Lijiang, friendly and accomodating management, and more, Leisure Yue Gu Lou Inn 阅古楼 is it.

We stayed at this hotel for three nights and had a great time! The boss is very attentive to the guests and helpful and made sure to contact us before and help us arrange a car to take us to the hotel. He was also waiting for us to take our luggage as we had to walk for about 5 minutes. The location is perfectly situated in the Old Town and you can spend everyday exploring a different part. The view from the hotel is beautiful and the staff are all helpful and friendly. The boss was always willing to answer our questions and make recommendations for places to go and things to do. The atmosphere and vibe is warm and friendly and I would definitely stay here again! I feel our stay was too short!

The place is very nice and clean. The view also superb. Receptionist also helpful. You can communicate thru WeChat if you need anything. Check in process smooth even though we came earlier. The location suite young energy because we need to climb up and go down stairs a bit. Overall it's a very nice stay 👍🏻

Highly recommended. Boss upgrade room for us. Got a restaurant with beautiful scenery and free photographs for those dining or staying there. Boss very friendly. Beautiful view. Great service.
