Beizunlinka · Golden Light on the Snow Mountain | Shiguang Buyu · Snow Mountain Panoramic View Hotel

While it is located in the old town, this property is still accessible via Car. So the driver can alight you just in front of the property, making it very convenient for the guests. From the external facade, it shows only a bakery shop. But do not be fooled by it, as the beauty of the property stuns you, once you make your way through the defunct bakery shop. This property was initially renovated for a certain competition and it did win an award for that. Subsequently, it was opened to the public and they have only 6 (or was it 8) rooms available for booking. The reception area was warm and cozy, with some jazz or retro Cantonese songs playing softly in the background, while you can choose to just sit back and chill, read any of the many books provided, enjoy endless cups of the complimentary Americano or Latte. Step out into the garden and there's a small fish pond, Alfresco area where is the sun is out, makes it a great place to just laze away the afternoon! The property is filled with many beautiful decorations like the mosaic walls, ancient doors (with traditional 'locking' methods) and so many more delightful touches, to make it interesting at almost every turn! Rooms were filled with all amenities necessary and the most important of all, a floor heater! Worked like a gem during our stay! Our balcony provides the most stunning view of the Yulong Mountain and you could literally watch the famed Gold Coloured Mountain during the mornings, right from our room windows or our balcony! The services provided by the awesome team there were flawless. Always soft spoken and warm, they could anticipate all our needs and wants even before we asked! The butler by the name of 九川 was exceptionally service oriented and he ensured that we were well taken care of, throughout our two night stay! They provide a sumptuous local breakfast set too! In fact, so nice that we asked for more servings and they gladly provided! Also, they provide complimentary tea break as well as night snacks! Awesome! Nonetheless, do take note that between 12 midnight to 8am there will be no one at the reception area, BUT, they do have the emergency contact numbers for you to reach out to them. Just before you check-in, you will be placed into a WeChat group where the service staffs will attend to any of your queries. So, at all times, you would be able to expect a prompt response within 1-3mins! Be it a simple request like asking for more mineral water for your room, or a slightly bigger favor like extension of checkout timing, you could just send your requests through the group chat and they will attend to it almost instantly! Overall, it was a superb experience staying in this property and we would highly recommend it to anyone who is visiting BaiSha old town!

Room is big, clean and fully equipped with nice amenities. Breakfast, afternoon tea & supper were all well presented and delicious. Though the location is not right smack at city center, it can be an advantage for not crowded with lots of people and will be peaceful at night. I will not hesitate to choose this hotel for my next return to Lijiang.

I rarely write reviews for hotels, but I really loved their service. So far, this is the hotel that offers the best service. A staff member explained all the attractions and food options in Baisha Village in detail. They provide afternoon tea, evening snacks, and breakfast—all included in the hotel fees. They also offer other services like candle making and baking classes. Unfortunately, due to my packed schedule, I didn’t get to register for those classes. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my stay and the top-notch service provided.
