"At the Puer Yixiang Mountain Camp and Hillside Hotel, enjoy a wonderful time embracing nature.
Environment:
- The hotel is in a prime location, halfway up Yixiang Mountain, surrounded by tea gardens. In the morning, open the doors and windows, and the fresh tea fragrance will greet you, with green tea trees in sight, as if you are in a green ocean. In the distance, the mountains are undulating, and the clouds are swirling, sometimes floating like a light veil in the mountains, and sometimes gathering into a magnificent sea of clouds, with beautiful scenery.
- The hotel's architecture blends perfectly with the surrounding environment, whether it is the rustic wooden villa or the tent hotel full of wildness, giving people a feeling of returning to nature. The wooden structure of the building complements nature, as if it grows naturally from the mountains and forests.
Facilities:
- The room facilities are complete and of high quality. The bed is soft and comfortable, ensuring good sleep quality; the design and selection of furniture are very careful, both beautiful and practical. The bathroom is clean and tidy, equipped with high-quality toiletries.

There is a scenic restaurant where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while tasting local delicacies; the coffee book bar is a good place to relax, order a cup of coffee, take a book, and quietly enjoy leisure time; there are also facilities such as a gym to meet the different needs of guests.
Service:
- The hotel staff is enthusiastic and thoughtful, from the thoughtful guidance when checking in to the various needs during the stay, they can respond in a timely and efficient manner. They are also very knowledgeable about local culture and attractions and can provide guests with detailed travel advice and information.
- The hotel also organizes various special activities, such as tea garden hiking, tea picking and making, coffee making, etc., allowing guests to deeply experience the local culture and lifestyle, increasing the fun and participation of the stay.
Disadvantages:
- The soundproofing effect of some room types needs to be improved, such as two tent rooms connected together, the sound next door is easy to pass through, which may affect the guests' rest.
- The price of the hotel is relatively high, and for some tourists with limited budgets, they may feel that the cost performance is not particularly high.
Overall, Puer Yixiang Mountain Camp and Hillside Hotel is a very distinctive hotel, which perfectly combines natural scenery, tea culture, and high-quality accommodation experience, bringing guests an unforgettable vacation time. Although there are some small shortcomings, its advantages are enough to make people linger, and it is a recommended accommodation choice."

Pu’er relax and coffee tasting
Perfect place to unwind.
Located on a mountain top just outside of Pu’er city, what you’ll find is calm and peaceful environment and fresh air.
The main building and the accommodation houses are beautifully designed and perfectly compliment the environment of the mountain. If you need to put your mind on ease, this place may well be on your list.
The main building offers coffee tasting of various beans grown in the region and you can spend some time chatting with the staff who’s happy to share their coffee knowledge. Nearby, there are also services offering ‘mountain adventures’ type of activities.
I’d recommend driving there on your own, as public transport may not be much convenient.
