Dragonfly
Friendly staff, and a relaxed roof-top terrace with comfy hammocks and delightful views of the old town and CangShan mountain. Tucked away down a little alley, so can be a little hard to find after one too many beers!
Sleepyfish Lodge
Nice, comfortable atmosphere, with friendly owners and two lovely dogs to welcome you when you step in through the gate. Situated just outside the old town, but close to the highway for easy access to buses to Xiaguan and to Lijiang.
