Only a short 1-minute stroll from Shuhe Ancient Town, The Bivou features accommodation in local and modern styles combined together. Blending in by making use of the barbecue facilities, lazing in soothing massage, going horse riding or enjoying a fun time with your children at kids’ club seems like a nice getaway. Free Wi-Fi is available in all areas. The hospitality and care for the wellness of their guests go beyond expectations and anything I have ever experienced in a hotel. From the first moment of walking through the doors and being greeted by May and HeiMi (the cat), I felt the warmness of stepping foot into Bivou-instantly, I was at a place that felt like home. Right when we stepped through the threshold, we were offered homemade bread (that I could still taste even now) and some delicious apple tea. The ayis (aunties) helped move our heavy luggage into the beautiful room, and spent time introducing the activities in the hotel, activities we could do around Lijiang, and different hikes that we could go on. Our room was so COMFORTABLE - high ceilings, spacious bathroom with a rain shower, clean and woodsy interior, and firm beds with warming mats. The welcome package included lotion, lip balm, and the most comprehensive maps of Lijiang, as well as a binder filled with activities to do. The activities weren't your typical "tourist" activities but they were incredibly curated, local gems like biking to Baishi village and going to see the Naxi orchestra (Nomi helped booked for us! Thank you!). The owner of Bivou is so fun and helpful - she gave us a map for Tiger Leaping Gorge and even helped us arrange a hotel on the trail! For a lot of my stay in Lijiang, I was sick (some food poisoning), but the ayis, especially May, kept me alive - not even exaggerating. They went out of their way to cook porridge for me, recommended and brewed red tea for my stomach ache, delivered homemade soup and dumplings up to the room, and changed the bed sheets at midnight for us. The Bivou cafe was the ONLY place I trusted to eat at because I wasn't feeling well. The food is so healthy, fresh, homecooked with love, and absolutely healing. Bivou is not your typical boutique hotel, not the Banyan, nor the Four Seasons.

The Linden Centre is an award-winning boutique hotel offering the intrepid traveler an inspiring exploration into Southwest China. The property, renovated by the Lindens, is one of their attempts to preserve local Bai heritage and introduce curious travelers to a different side of China.The Linden Centre has been consistently ranked as a top Dali hotel, and has gained international recognition for its commitment to cultural sustainability and heritage preservation. Free Wi-Fi access is available. Perfect stay! Staff were incredibly helpful, especially DanDan, who gave us a free market tour and tour of the building- having that time with her meant we learnt so much we wouldn't have otherwise. Breakfast was delicious, as was the welcome drink, which we took as a tea set on the terrace- a perfect way to spend the afternoon after a morning of sightseeing. The location is perfect- in Xizhou town- a beautiful spot surrounded by rice fields- out of the hustle and bustle of Dali, but close enough for easy sightseeing. Beds were super comfortable and the bathroom was well appointed. I wish I was back there now!
