Great localion, great staff. Good rooms
We stayed in two different rooms, the furnishing is quite chinese, not very comfy for westerners. Location and sorrounding are great, several veg patches, real ones, very quiet day and night. The whole area is strictly pedestrian. The food is good when May, the chef, is there. If not......better not to order and/or eat in the Hotel. All the staff is very nice, helpful, kind and polite. This m akes a big difference.

TheBivou has been great, Staff 10 points!
Our stay was really enjoyable. T=we stayed in two different rooms, I can only complain that they are too “chinese”, especially the “sitting”area for TV. But the kindness, efficiency and friendly approach of the entire staff wouid cover everything. We had a problem with our shower for water flow and it was taken immediate action. The location is great, very quiet, very central, amazing. Should we plan another trip to Lijiang we would definitely come back to TheBivou. The sorrounding of the vegetable patches taken care by the local people is amazing. We loved also their food, not only breakfast as we tried also dinner and it has been original and excellent. We travel a lot, live in HKG, we have experience. Highly recomended!

Wonderful way to experience the Lijiang Area
Hotel is located off the main pedestrian street of ShuHe, which is one of the old towns connected to Lijiang. Whether it’s actually an ancient town or not, we found it all charming. Loved the hotel and their enthusiasm at helping us have a great experience overall. Cannot wait to go back!

Excellent
We really liked this hotel.
First, the staff sets this place apart. They go all out to help guests. They have lots of great suggestions for activities and gave us great local maps to find little shops and restaurants.
Second, breakfast is superb. They have a table with some cold offerings including delicious homemade Musli and then also offer a hot dish, in the two nights that we stayed both offerings were great.
Third, the room is equally good. Confy beds, nice bathroom, and a cute balcony to the inner garden.
Fourth, they offer dvds that you can watch about Lijiang and they have a great book selection on local architecture and culture.

Comfortable, quiet stay at Shuhe Old Town
Thoughtful provisions in complimentary toiletries, maps of the old town and umbrellas. Staff was very helpful and friendly, helped us to check our flight, arrange for a car and pack breakfast for us as we were scheduled to depart at 7am. Location allowed convenient access to the main attractions in the old town.
