The streets where the wind lives

The room is very spacious and the view is beautiful. The location is great, it feels like more of a local area whilst still being close to the old town, and we particularly enjoyed feeling slightly removed from the bustle. A steamed fish hotpot at yunmu Yao restaurant just down the stairs is not to be missed and was a highlight. Some details could be improved such as providing a bathmat and body lotion. There are also no hooks for the towels near the shower. Cleanliness was overall ok but some hairs in the shower were missed and there is a little bit of build up from hard water. Overall I would stay again.

麗江住過最滿意的民宿院子，比古城裡麪的民宿更方便步行到古城北門幾分鐘，房間很漂亮，兩面超級大的落地窗户，視野無敵風景，躺床上看電影有電影院的效果，還能把手機上的照片投到大屏上欣賞，床頭自帶手機充電接口非常方便，全自動馬桶體驗非常棒，值得推薦。

Our front desk person was so lovely. He helped with everything, drop off, pick up, questions and any Type of help. We loved our stay here. Our 360 room was the most fantastic thing of our stay here. There is no breakfast but that let us explore the old town for amazing street food and local food.

One of My Best Stay Experiences—Authentic & Unforgettable This was one of my most memorable hotel stays, and I’ve stayed at many top-tier, five-star hotels around the world. While this may not be the most luxurious in terms of facilities, it more than makes up for it with its genuine charm and warmth. The owner was incredibly friendly, making us feel like we were staying at a friend’s home rather than a hotel. This welcoming vibe perfectly complements the enchanting atmosphere of this beautiful ancient city.   The views were absolutely breathtaking, especially from our top-floor room. The owner went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience, offering a spectacular panorama of the old town and surrounding mountains. The location is ideal—perched on a small hill, it provides an elevated vantage point for those stunning views, though the short uphill walk may be a slight effort due to the altitude. But trust me, it’s worth it.   If you’re visiting Lijiang to immerse yourself in its relaxed beauty and rich culture, there’s no better place to stay. I originally booked for three nights but quickly realized I’d need more time—next visit, I’m planning a full week to truly unwind and soak it all in. This isn’t a place to rush; it’s a place to slow down, savor the moment, and let the magic of Lijiang embrace you.   I can’t wait to return.

We chose this accommodation because of the view and it certainly did not disappoint. It’s exactly as pictured. The windows could be folded to the side and the view looks right out of a painting. The room was clean, artfully designed, with a smart toilet. Mr Liu, the owner of the accommodation received us at the road and helped with our luggage. He was warm and friendly, which made our stay very pleasant. We had some queries on ordering food and he rendered assistance immediately. The accommodation is located at the top of a hill, nestled in the residential area. There are some downhill steps leading it, and another set of downhill steps with a ten minutes walk to the old town. The steps were fine for us as we were prepared after reading the reviews. Moreover, Mr Liu helped with our luggage during check in and check out. Overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend it to travellers looking for a peaceful stay!

My friend and I enjoyed our stay in the 'Deluxe Panoramic 720° View Double Bed Room With Bath Tub' at The Streets Where The Wind Lives (风居住的街道). The hotel housekeeper Mr Yu was incredibly kind, caring and helpful during our stay at the hotel - he went out of his way multiple times to ensure that our stay was comfortable and safe. Both the hotel owner and the housekeeper were always readily contactable via WeChat and made our stay in Lijiang really pleasant. Would highly recommend this hotel if you are planning to stay in Lijiang Ancient Town! Number of nights of stay: 3 nights Hotel location: 500 metres (approximately 10-minute walk) away from the north gate of Lijiang Ancient Town. Will need to walk about 2 to 3 flights of cobblestone steps to get to the hotel from the vehicle drop-off point; we transported our luggage from the vehicle drop-off point to the hotel on our own but you can also contact the housekeeper for assistance. About 30-minute DiDi ride from the hotel to Baisha Old Town Room: The 'Deluxe Panoramic 720° View Double Bed Room' was located on the third floor; there was no lift but the housekeeper kindly helped us to transport our luggage to our room. There were one king-sized bed, two bedside tables (with type I wall power sockets), one long table in front of the bed, one rocking chair, and floor-to-ceiling windows with a beautiful view of Lijiang Ancient Town. There was a sky roof in the room too but it was covered with tarp on the rooftop during our stay. The bed and pillows (one soft and one firmer memory foam pillow for each guest) were comfortable and the room was clean. The only downside was that the wardrobe was small with limited space to hang our clothes Bathroom: Spacious bathroom with shower area and bath tub. Toiletries (e.g. hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, body soap), disposable toothbrush/toothpaste, and towels were provided. Rubber bathroom slippers and disposable bedroom slippers were provided too Hotel amenities: Additional CNY 20/pax for breakfast at the lobby (8.30am-10am; noodles with tomato-based soup and minced meat; will need to arrange this with the housekeeper the night prior), communal washing machine (free of charge, inclusive of laundry liquid detergent; there is a small overhead rack to hang and dry the clothes after washing) Luggage storage: Complimentary and safe luggage storage in the hotel (e.g. if you are planning to hike and stay at Tiger Leaping Gorge for a night) Lijiang airport/station transfer: Free transfer arranged by the hotel for stays of at least three nights. Will need to arrange this with the hotel owner 1 day prior
