Located within 700 metres of Loyalty Arch and 700 metres of Mufu Palace, 夕露古城中心店 XILU INN NANXI - Ancient City Center Branch provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Lijiang. This recently renovated homestay is located less than 1 km from Guangbi Tower and a 4-minute walk from Baisui Bridge. Every room comes with a patio with views of the garden. We had an amazing experience staying at this hotel. The location is perfect, very convenient and close to everything we needed. Our room was beautiful—spacious, tastefully decorated, and equipped with every amenity one could ask for, including a great soaking bathtub. One of the highlights of our stay was the incredibly warm welcome we received upon arrival from Mandy’s uncle, James, and her brother. They greeted us with big smiles and genuine kindness, which immediately made us feel at home. The breakfast was good with a great cappuccino to start the day off right. Mandy herself was absolutely fantastic—always available via WeChat to answer any questions and offer great suggestions. Her English is excellent, which made communication very easy and smooth. On our departure day, James kindly carried our luggage all the way to the taxi area at 6:45 in the morning—again, with that same warm smile and friendly attitude. We also really loved the dogs, which added a charming, homely touch to the place. We wholeheartedly recommend staying at this hotel. It was an unforgettable experience and we would definitely come back!

At the homestay, each unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. It was an amazing stay and I loved everything.

The hotel is located in the middle of the old town in a beautiful old Chinese house, I loved my room with the spa bathtub, it was like going back in time to live a Chinese’s dynasty. Joye spoke excellent English and his assistant was nice enough to pick me and my luggage from the South Gate to to the hotel, they were doing everything to make my stay comfortable.

Situated a 10-minute walk from the South Gate of Dali Ancient Town, Z.Garden offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Dali Zhangjia Garden is 1 km from the homestay, while Dali University is 1.6 km away. The nearest airport is Dali Airport, 16 km from the property. This is pretty much the perfect hotel. Beautiful courtyard house in a quiet neighbourhood, but very close to restaurants and the south gate of the old town. Rooms are spotlessly clean, comfortable and well-stocked, and the breakfast is delicious! Jiuan and his family/team made us feel really at home.
