The Bivou Lijiang

Really appreciated the calm and beauty of the well designed boutique hotel. Friendly and attentive staff made us feel at home. It is worth making the way to this hotel, far from the madding crowd in Dayan Ancient town.

This hotel exceeded our expectations. Beautiful, clean, close to everything we wanted to see, delicious food, reasonable prices, very kind staff, gorgeous terrasse surrounded by gardens… couldn’t have asked for more. Just amazing!

I really enjoyed my stay at the Bivou. It feels like a home away from home. I loved that it's tucked in a quieter corner of the ancient city. It's peaceful and tranquil and overlooks a vegetable garden where they get their vegetables from. Upon stepping into Bivou you're welcome with a cup of warm fruit tea and freshly baked cakes, you can't help but feel the warmth of the staff and place. I highly recommend the food in their restaurant/cafe as well, they are made with the freshest ingredients and also of the highest hygiene . They also have delicious Yunnan wines if you're keen to try some. The rooms are very comfortable and impeccably designed. I love the thoughtful touches they've included like a handmade lip balm, hand drawn walking maps of the surrounding villages, photo book of Lijiang, etc. Additionally, Hwee Ling, the owner of the hotel and her staff, are readily available if you need any advise or help with trip planning. I appreciate their insider's tip on places to visit in the area. I can't wait to return again to Bivou when i'm back in Lijiang.

The location is great, 5-10 mins walk from north gate of 束河古镇. Service is Wonderful and staff make you feel at home. The top rated Huya coffee is nearby,.and also the 九鼎龙潭water catchment area. 闹中取静 stay for a quick stop at 丽江. Had a wonderful time and.experience Mooncake making lesson organized by the hotel during Mid Autumn Festival stay. The dining hall is overlooking a small farm of herbs and vegetables. I would recommend staying here if you are coming to LiJiang, SuHe GuZhen 束河古镇. P/S: They offer free baggage service from the entrance(picture).

Outstanding hotel! Perfect location within the Old City close to entrance gate to the Old City. Comfortable accommodation and lovely and varied breakfast. Staff friendly, polite and helpful. Option to dine at the hotel with both Chinese and Western food available. Tasty and reasonably priced. Also Happy Hour available daily with reductions in costs for wine, beer and cocktails. Would thoroughly recommend.

Bivou is a gem in Yunnan. The service staff are extremely helpful and go the extra mile to make you feel like you’re at home. I was assigned a room surrounded by greenery, and the feeling when you look out the windows was amazing especially when it rains. They maintain the space very well and there were no bugs in the room despite all the plants outside. They have in house activities if you wish to have a rest day from the touristy stuff. Food was delicious too - I think they use the produce that they plant themselves so it’s very fresh. South East Asians would be glad to know there’s kaya and milo available for breakfast! I couldn’t catch everyone’s names but big shout out to all the hardworking staff there including Xuexue, May and Layla for making my stay so lovely.
