A charming minority old town, part of the UNESCO World Heritage list since 1997, whose water canals conferred it the title of "Little Venice of Orient". It remains one of the nicest village in China and a good place to relax before heading North.
The Ancient Town Inn (Gucheng Kezhan) is the 3 star luxury hotel located in the ancient town of Lijiang. Ultra-conveniently located near Sifang Jie, the center of the ancient town, the hotel combines the convenience and comfort of a star rated hotel with the peaceful beauty of the ancient town. The hotel itself is the result of a successful renovation project which turned several traditional Naxi courtyards into modern hotels without destroying the original structure and artistry of the architecture.

|
|
|
The hotel is in the Old Town, surrounded by small streets with streams running along them and the entire area is prettily decorated with willow trees, small stone bridges and blossoming flowers.
|
|
|
The Ancient Town Inn has 48 rooms, a great place to be based for a stay in this ancient city, and this is an ideal spot to appreciate any aspect of this fantastic destination, from an evening stroll to dining in one of Lijiang's cafes and restaurants.
The Hotel has a pretty garden and the hotel staff all dress in traditional Naxi clothing and are very hospitable and helpful. The hotel boasts uniquely decorated guestrooms with satellite (Chinese ) TV, mini bar and central A/C. The hotel restaurant serves traditional Naxi food and also a few western dishes.

Rooms poorly maintained, especially bathroom - very low water pressure, dirty, flush does not work properly. No air conditioning (only air circulation). Very poor sub-contracted breakfast - bad service, low quality in dirty surroundings.
Hotel staff were very helpful; guests need to speak Putonghua, otherwise will be a struggle.
Not up to expectations of overseas visitors |

A good location but a big disappointment in quality. Initially, they tried to put us in perhaps the worst room in the Inn. We changed rooms, but it was very cramped, had plumbing problems and a broken heating system. The breakfast across the street was very poor. Little English spoken, staff seemed untrained. Simply not in the 3 star catagory. After 2 days, we moved to a better, much less expensive Inn. |
