Lijiang Zen Garden Hotel has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Lijiang. The property is close to several well-known attractions, less than 1 km from Three-eye Well, a 9-minute walk from Loyalty Arch and less than 1 km from Mufu Palace. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi throughout the property. Lijiang Zen Garden Hotel This hotel is beautiful, charming, with a view and is located in the old city, with easy access to Mu House and all the shops in the old city. Although it is located in the old city, it is accessible by car and they kindly picked us up at the airport, which is approximately an hour away from the hotel. The room is spacious, very comfortable with an excellent mattress, bed linen and towels, and a great bathroom with plenty of water, including a bathtub. But the best thing about the hotel is Amber, who speaks English and organized all the tours we did, including personally taking us to a restaurant, helping us choose the dishes and placing our order. Amber is excellent and extremely kind and helpful. Without her, our stay would certainly have been much more complicated. For guests who do not speak Chinese, this hotel has a great advantage. In short, the hotel is 10 out of 10. We were extremely well attended to in everything we asked for.

The friendly front counter lady gave suggestions on places to eat. We tried them and they were all great. The room was clean and comfortable. There’s ceiling heater to keep the shower area warm during winter.

The tea served is from local tea leaves from staff’s friend who owns a tea plantation. Breakfast is always a hearty tasty main with a side of corn or sweet potato. Sometimes there are seasonal fruits bought by staff from the local market. Loved loved loved the warmth of the staff.
