Joy's Family G. H anmeldelser

This place is all about the views and the peace and quiet. The couple operating the guest house were helpful in arranging a return car shuttle to Lijiang (80 RMB for the jump seat in a questionable vehicle with a wobble at most speeds). Even the laundry area has a great view! The view, the view, the view.

Really love the view here. The room was really clean. We did evening trekking at Yixintian Trail & Tianti Trail after checked in. And it was almost dark when we were on our way back to the room. Lucky us, the owner noticed us on the road and gave us a free ride. The owner kindly helped us to pay using wechat pay to the taxi driver and the place we owed (we took 2 bottles of water while trekking but when we wanted to pay using alipay it failed, so we snapped the QR code).. Definitely will choose to stay here again if I come again one day. Thanks for having us here =)

A beautiful, local family-run guesthouse with the best views. 100% recommend staying here—it’s only a 20-30 min walk along the road on from Tina’s Guesthouse, which is bigger and feels more commercialised. The couple who run this are so kind, offering us free corn that they grew, letting us shower after a hike to the lower gorge even after checking out, and driving us back to Tina’s for our bus to Shangrila at no extra charge.

Clean, well furnished room with perfect view. English speaking boss 👍 Good advice for hiking, and drove us to the start of the high trail. Best breakfast in China, we stayed for 3 days and got different dishes every morning including apple&walnut pancake, banana pancake, omelette - yummi. We also decided to have dinner here, also here: big variety of dishes to choose from and everything we tried tasted very, very well And a plus for us: Separate entrances, we could park our bicycles right in front of the room to unload

The readon we chose this hotel was because of the panoramic queen room. Full view from bioth walls was so spectacular. To our surprise, the room was very clean and spacious.. Toilet is very modern. Service was good. Breakfast is better than other hotels i havre stayed in yunnan, and with great view

Joy's guesthouse is for those who want a bit more peace and quiet. Even though it is only about 2km down the road from Tina's Guest House and the bus depot, it feels like a world away from the crowds. Even though it is well catered to guests, we were still able to catch glimpses of people living their lives tending to the fields and animals. The food was delicious and plenty and made fresh on the spot! We loved the dumplings and they even accommodated our request of wrapping it up then reheating them for our next day's lunch. The room was spacious and came with all the mod cons, including built in heating for the bathroom and heating/air con unit for the room. Even having said all that, the most spectacular thing about the room had to be the view. The giant windows over looking the rice terraces, Yulong snow mountain and the roaring river was something out of a movie!!!! And on top of that, Joy was extremely helpful when the strong winds prevented my drone was returning back to me, she took us in her car to successfully retrieve it. I can't recommend Joy's guesthouse highly enough! Tip: take the Ray of sunshine route (take a right about 500m after arriving at Tina's guesthouse). You will need to pay 15CNY to get down to the gorge, we'll worth it, then another 15CNY to take the Ray of Sunshine path to Sean's guest house (which is just down the road from Joy's). The latter path was one of our favourites as we had the path all to ourselves!

Great rooms with great views. With an even better meal (the best rice noodle I’ve ever eaten). It’s a bit further from Linda’s (the end of the trail) but it was definitely worth it.

Great location in front of Tibet Guest house. Fantastic views from rooms and lounge area. Delicious meals, cold beers available if you ask in advance. Joy makes good coffee. They drove us to trailhead to hike to river and back up to Teacher Zhang's guesthouse. Had to pay 15 yuan three times along the hike. We contacted Joy and her husband drove down to fetch us back. You can hike in reverse as well. Friendly service. The wheat terraces below are beautiful.

Great view from the room and conveniently located if you want to hike along the less busy section of the Tiger Leaping Gorge lower trail. Breakfast was delicious and the hosts were very quick to sort out a couple of small issues.

Although a little further than the famous Tina’s, Joys is just as wonderful! Its views are second to none and Joy is just the most incredible host, messaging us every step of the way about our hike, how to get to her place and organizing a private driver from the hotel to Jade mountain and then on to Shuhe ancient town. Remember if you go to Jade mountain to book your cable car in advance (there is no other way up the mountain). I would recommend Joy’s guesthouse to anyone! Plus breakfast and dinner was incredible! Especially the friend pork! Thank you Joy!

We stayed 1 night at Joy’s family guesthouse before tiger leaping gorge trekking. The room and scenery is so good, the owner has their own restaurant, the food they cook is so tasty. The female boss can communicate to us in English, she’s so helpful.

If you didn’t stay at Joy’s while hiking the Tiger Leaping Gorge you completely missed out on seeing one of the best views, straight from the bedroom. After walking for 22km, I was almost about to stay at Tina’s but I got put off by how commercial it is. So glad I made the decision to continue walking until I found Joy’s. It’s only an extra 20-30 min walk away from Tina’s and 100% worth the extra effort (note, the location on Trip.com is a little bit off, the guesthouse is directly opposite ******* Guesthouse in Walnut Garden). The room is very spacious, quiet and clean/tidy and has all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay. The family who run it are nice and welcoming, and they cook delicious food in the restaurant (which you can enjoy with the view). Wished I stayed for longer!

The hotel was a little difficult to find but Joy was very helpful when giving directions. The view from the hotel is fantastic and the food was also very tasty. The bathroom was very advanced with a Japanese toilet and powerful shower. All the staff were very kind and helpful, thank you for making our stay so memorable!

This place is perfect! Joy is very nice. It is a family owned business. Joy is the owner and she is very helpful. The place is clean. The food is very good. The owner made me banana pancakes in the morning. I highly recommend this place. The view is spectacular. I will definitely come back. No doubt. Great service! Thank you for making this experience one of my best memories here.
