3-Star Hotels in Jianchuan

I loved that my driver could drive right up to the hotel as I really did not want to transport my things across the cobblestone of Old Town. The location was the hotel is great as you are only a couple minutes from many restaurants, shops, and sights. The grounds are beautiful with so many flowers. The front desk was helpful in suggestions and recommending activities. Having them on wechat was helpful. The breakfast is simple, but alright.

Shaxi old town itself is a true gem on its own, and this place is a gem in a gem. Hidden just outside of the Shaxi old town, it's proximity to the town square （寺登街）is a big plus. The landscape is super cozy, highly suitable for those who want to really have a good break from the hustle and bustle of city life, resting ones mind in an uninterrupted environment. Let's not forget the lady owner taking care of the place, who is so accommodating and helpful. And let's not forget the hot fresh milk provided every evening, which gives another level of warmness to the stay. Notes: if you are here on a Friday, you are of luck. The farmers market held weekly on Friday is just a few minutes walk away from this guesthouse too!

We had a wonderful stay. The english speaking owner and the very friendly staff staff did their utmost best to make our stay as good as possible. The staff provided us with tips in the area, scooter rental and all other help we needed. Sometimes travelling in China can come with challenges coming from Europe, but the staff made us all feel at home and relaxed. The rooms, including bathrooms are very clean!

The room is warm and clean. The owner is very attentive in the layout. Bottled water, bottled tea, makeup remover, facial mask, hand cream, and even steam eye mask are provided. It is so considerate! The bedding is comfortable and the toiletries are all branded. I traveled alone and the owner also arranged carpooling and luggage pick-up. This is the most satisfactory inn in this Yunnan trip.

Beautiful room n nice view from window. I like the field view in front of the window. Very clean. Location on the big street, so the car driver drop me in front of the hotel door, no need to pull luggage. Location outside ancient city, but very close. You can walk. The owner is kind person, give me free water n help me to fill my we chat wallet.

Shaxi Yishu Inn is next to the Internet-famous ancient tree where people take photos and check in. It is full of vitality and popularity. The location is easy to find. It is a pleasant, comfortable, quiet and childlike inn with a beautiful, spacious and bright courtyard full of pomegranate and pear fruit trees and green plants. We are four adults and two children. We are lucky to catch up with the mushroom picking season. We can ask the owner for the contact information of locals to take mushroom picking in the mountains and experience the fun of picking fresh mushrooms. The comfortable outdoor area allows you to enjoy the environment and weather, as well as local food and snacks. From the roof at the top, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of the town. The location is great, in a quiet area, the room is very comfortable, very quiet at night and the temperature is suitable. The sleep quality is super good after walking around during the day, and there is also the music of crickets. The facilities are complete, the friendly inn staff are also very tolerant of our two naughty children, and the communication is intimate. The hall is open with a screen TV, gathering big and small friends who watch cartoons. The breakfast in the morning is varied, with local sweet corn, hot and sour pork shreds, eight-treasure porridge, fried dough sticks, boiled eggs, etc. This inn is highly recommended. You can walk to the ancient town, where there are Yujin Bridge, various shops, local restaurants, sunflower fields and ecological ducks, horseback riding, small bridges and flowing water, barefoot paddling in the water, drinking freshly squeezed goat milk, local green and purple grapes, unwaxed sweet and sour apples. There are large blooming sunflower plates everywhere - it's really beautiful! Finally, I took away the fresh charcoal-grilled white cakes, flower cakes, ham cakes, restaurant-dried large bacon, and fresh mushrooms packaged by SF Express from Shaxi Ancient Town. This trip was very pleasant, and I will come again with my family next time!

This little gem is 5 min walk away from the old city, along the river. You can reach the famous bridge following the river, a nice stroll away from the crowd. The rooms are truly beautiful and the overall atmosphere is peaceful, even with kids around. It’s well decorated and very high quality furniture and bedding. We arrived earlier than the check-in time but they welcomed us with tea, fruits and snacks. They provide also a « shuttle » to go to the old town and pick you up anywhere in the old town maximum 20min after sending a message. The Chinese breakfast was different everyday and delicious. One day we left early and they gave us some part of the breakfast to go. We wanted to ride bicycles and they sent us a contact and location to get them. Same for a driver to go to the mountain. They are all the kindest people. We really recommend this place.

The check-in experience is very satisfactory. The location is very easy to find, just near Beizhaimen. There is also a popular cat soy milk to welcome you. It is very close to every corner of Shaxi. It can be reached in a few minutes on foot. Shaxi is very beautiful this month, and there are not many people. The experience of playing is very good. It is a place that can be visited twice or three times. I will stay here again. Environment: Courtyard-style inn, the flowers and plants in the yard are very beautiful, and there are rocking chairs to sit on and rest for a day. It is very comfortable. There is also a table on the roof of the third floor. It is very comfortable to buy some midnight snacks and sit on it to eat and drink in the wind. Hygiene: The room is very tidy and clean, and the bedding is also comfortable. I usually can't sleep easily when I go to unfamiliar places, but this situation does not happen here. I sleep very well. The shampoo and shower gel are also selected by the owner and are also very easy to use. Facilities: Both the room and the lobby are fully equipped, and you don't need to buy extra bags to check in. Service: The boss is approachable and enthusiastic. They are all young people and they can talk to each other. If you have any questions or needs, you can directly ask the boss and he will answer them.

To start with, Shaxi is such a precious jewel. The historic preservation collaboration between ETH and Chinese scholars and the locals is impressive. The harmony formed by the nature and the man-made environment is incredible. We wish we had more time to stay and dive deeper. And we absolutely loved our stay at the Flower Inn. It’s really close to the core of the town yet very quiet and peaceful. The garden is meticulously cared for. The most special is an impressive 2-story library housing the owners’ personal book collections. They recently opened the library to the community a few days a week - a generous way to share knowledge and wisdom, and bring the community closer together. The owners are very warm, interested in making friends and sharing their experience. I really enjoyed an evening chat with them and listening to the stories about the town’s history, preservation, local lifestyles and much more. We would love to come back to Shaxi in the future and stay at the Flower Inn again.

1. Self-driving parking: Not far from the famous hotel, there is a paid parking lot (about 15 yuan a day), which can be parked. We went in July, which is the peak tourist season, and there is no place to park at the famous hotel. 2, breakfast: protein, carbohydrates have. Milk is good. 3. Guest room, famous hotel environment: We live on the first floor, and we open the window to see the yard, which is very comfortable. Once my baby returns to the famous hotel, he will not be able to return to the room after playing in the yard. The room is clean and comfortable, and there is a full-length mirror in the room! This is great! 4. Location: The ancient town of Shaxi is not big, and it is very convenient to walk from famous places.
