Banyan Tree Lijiang

We truly enjoyed and loved our stay at the Banyan Tree, Lijiang. It’s a beautiful resort and we appreciate the upgrade from our suite to the villa. The overall resort is well maintained and we loved the ambience; quiet and beautiful. The villa is well maintained.

Beautiful resorts hotel, location is great! Just a few mins walk from 白沙古镇. The rooms are spacious and clean, tastefully decorated. Also, the hotel provides an international buffet breakfast, and the spread is good. Special thanks to all the service staff there, especially Norah, is friendly and polite and did her best to make our stays there a memorable one!

I was impressed with the upgraded room type and excellent service provided by the front desk Cindy. She continues to check on me though it's her off day. The tour desk driver William is also very helpful and friendly. We communicated prior to my arrival on the places to visit from lijiang to Shangri LA and was happy he was able to be my driver that day and extended beyond his hours. Just a suggestion to banyan tree hotel to provide oxygenated bottles or equipment in the room will be very helpful since lijiang is on High altitude region.

The resort is nicely built and designed. Enjoyed the stay thoroughly. The breakfast was great wide range of foods, Chinese and western. Fruits were aplenty, complimentary bottled waters are replenished daily. Beds were comfortable but pillows were too soft to my liking. The room itself is a bit dated, front door is not properly aligned and closing it need to push harder. The cleaning person were not thorough enough, while the black marbled floor is clean, the carpet could not be said so as there were stains and foods stuff sticking to the carpet from previous customers.

Hotel is as per advertised, amazing clean, hospitable, and tranquil. Amenities were complete and the rooms were big and cozy. Location wise, its en route to the Jade Dragon scenic spot and about half a kilometer to the Shunhe Old Town. Breakfast was nice but not comparable to the ones you get in Bali or Phuket. Spa service is also slightly above average - I feel the techniques in the south east asia hotels of similar rankings are better positioned/trained. Overall still a good stay and highly recommend it even on a high price point.

We had the pleasure of staying at Banyan Tree Lijiang for one night, and it was by far the highlight of our entire trip to Yunnan. We booked the Pool Villa with views overlooking the stunning Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and the experience exceeded all expectations. The villa itself was spacious, beautifully appointed, and offered complete privacy and tranquility. The design combined traditional Naxi culture with modern comforts, creating a perfect balance of luxury and authenticity. The private pool was a lovely touch, offering a serene escape with breathtaking views of the snow-capped peaks in the distance. What truly made our stay exceptional was the service, particularly from our butler, Abby. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. From providing insightful recommendations about local activities and city highlights to helping us plan our itinerary, Abby was incredibly attentive and professional. Her thoughtful touches made us feel like we were the only guests at the property, and we greatly appreciated her efforts in making our stay memorable. The entire resort is an oasis of calm, and we enjoyed exploring the beautifully landscaped grounds and the exceptional dining options. Banyan Tree Lijiang stands out as the best hotel we stayed at during our travels in Yunnan, thanks to the perfect combination of luxury, service, and setting. If you're looking for an unforgettable stay with unparalleled views, personalized service, and a tranquil atmosphere, Banyan Tree Lijiang is the place to be. Highly recommend!
