Lijiang Resort and Spa
Traditional Naxi village architecture on the outside; sleek, white-walled minimalism within. Garden canals, a central lake, and snowcapped mountain views create a serene natural setting around a thoroughly modern hotel.
Always request a mountain-view room or mountain-view villa — garden-view rooms face courtyards and miss the iconic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain sight line
Why It Matters
One of the very few upscale international-brand resorts in northern Yunnan. The villa product — especially the multi-bedroom options at 368–477 sqm — competes well for families and couples wanting space and mountain views. The Mandara Spa brings regionally-inspired treatments (pu-erh tea scrubs, acupressure facials) that you won't find at a city Pullman.
A low-rise resort built in the style of a Naxi village, sitting 1 km from Shuhe Ancient Town with direct views of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. From outside it reads as traditional — pagoda angles, a central reflective pond — but step inside and it flips completely: white walls, floor-to-ceiling glass, minimalist contemporary interiors. Entry-level deluxe rooms are comfortable but spare. The real story is the villas: private courtyards, underfloor heating, and outdoor soaking tubs pointed straight at the mountains.
Where You'll Stay
10 room types available
Deluxe Room – Garden or Mountain View
The entry-level room comes in either garden or mountain view configuration. At 42 sqm it's a clean, white-walled space with a separate shower, LCD TV, iPod dock, work desk, and complimentary WiFi. Naxi-inspired design touches run throughout. Mountain-view allocation goes fast — request it at booking.
42 sqmDeluxe Room with Balcony (King or Twin)
Same footprint as the standard Deluxe but with a private balcony added. The king version gets a double bed; the twin version two singles. Both include a bathroom with bath or shower, safe, coffee and tea facilities, and free WiFi.
