The full name is Yiyuan Snow Mountain View Historical Naxi House - Lijiang Old Town Mufu Branch - English service and tour arrangement. It is our Best Value pick in Lijiang, and it suits first-time visitors, especially those who do not speak Chinese. Guests single out the host, Roxana, for fluent English and practical help.
It also works for families, since family rooms are listed, and for anyone who wants to step straight into the old town. Travellers who need breakfast on site should check first, because breakfast is not listed in our data.
Do not book it for a mountain view on the strength of the name alone. Views are not confirmed in our data, so ask the property which rooms, if any, have one.
Location and getting around
The address is No.59 zhongyi lane, guangyi street, gucheng district, in the Dayan Old Town area. Guests rate the location 9.9 out of 10, the highest of our three Lijiang picks.
The Old Town of Lijiang is listed at about 0.1 km, roughly a minute on foot as a straight-line estimate. Guests describe the setting as inside the old town near the South Gate, with a quiet atmosphere and easy taxi access. That last point matters in an old town where cars cannot reach every lane.
What guests say
The score is 9.6 out of 10 from 157 reviews, joint second of 5 eligible properties on review score. It has the most reviews of our three Lijiang picks.
Two things come up most. The location, inside the old town yet quiet. And the host, Roxana, who speaks fluent English and helps with luggage, tour bookings and local recommendations.
Our data lists no recurring complaints. That does not mean there are none, so read the latest reviews, especially on room size and heating if you travel in colder months.
Price and what you get, compared with our other Lijiang picks
The reference price was €32.25 per night, about €65 for two nights. That is a reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 November) for 2 adults, not a live quote. It was 52% below the sample median of €67.39. Check today's price for your dates.
Listed facilities include family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a garden and a terrace. Breakfast is not confirmed.
Golden Dragon's Mountain Glow Inn, our Budget pick, was €28.54 per night with a score of 9.3. The Panorama Designer Villa & Cafe, our Luxury pick, was €81.06 with 9.7. For under €4 more than the Budget pick you gain three tenths of a point. Against the Luxury pick you save nearly €49 a night and lose one tenth.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 5 hotels in Lijiang. Our Best Value slot weighs guest score, number of reviews and price. The mix of a 9.6 score, 157 reviews and a price this far below the median made the choice straightforward.
Before you book
