Mr.Li Youjian Forest Resort Hotel

The rooms are spacious and clean. The hotel staff are a gem and the location is superb. Will introduce to friends who visit da li

Clean, big and comfortable room which is just on the outskirts of the old town. Staff was extremely warm at check in. There is not floor heating and room can get pretty chilling at night during winter. They offer unlimited bottles of water at the counter. Amenities are good but the only downside is that they offer disposable body and face towels. Good if you like to use 100% clean towels but the experience is not the best if you are expecting the experience of regular towels as the absorption of the disposable towels is lacking. Not the best experience in winter.

This is a wonderful place to stay with a wonderful location and a beautiful forest garden next to a stream just outside the City gates of the ancient city, the "captain of ancient cities", of China. The people are super friendly and the place is clean and tidy and orderly. There is no elevator and so they are very helpful carrying bags up and down the stairs for you. There is no easy access to coffee without walking 15 minutes into the city however. Remote controlled curtains were an interesting option but they seemed to open and close of their own volition. Perhaps the neighbouring rooms remote control had a rather strong beam. The room was provided with disposable bath towels and face towels which were not really very enjoyable to use but the staff quickly exchanged them on my request for real towels. The only drawback for the longer staying visitor is the lack of washing facilities. I was told there was a washing machine on the roof area and this was true. There was however no drying machine. I was able to use the machine twice but on the third occasion it was locked shut and I had to wash clothing by hand with the obvious problem of drying it.
