It’s absolutely gorgeous place, located in the Tiger Leap Gorge, in the mountains. It’s quite, peaceful place, amazing views from the terraces, the rooms are very simple but cozy, all wood inside, have real bath! The owner is absolutely amazing, welcoming, he will treat you as real friend, perfect English, food of all kinds. I just left but I already want to come back again! Thank you so much!
ChinaIn the last week I stayed at Tina’s, Teahorse and Sean’s. Typically if you go to TLG you’ll wind up at Tina’s or Teahorse. Teahorse or Halfway are great options as end of day breaks of hiking through but for overall experience, staff hospitality and food, Sean’s is hands down the best option.
ChinaVery comfortable room, plenty of hot water, great view of the mountains across the river on the beautiful terraces. Sean was very interesting, offering excellent advice and information.
CanadaSean’s Guesthouse offers a huge outdoor seating area where you can enjoy views of the mountains, tea, coffee, beer and many amazing, organic, home cooked meals. Sean is a very nice and helpful host who gives great hiking tips.
ChinaNice and quiet place with stunning views. Sean is a nice man who wants the best for his guests. They serve excellent local food, lot of variety. The rooms are clean and cosy. Sean speaks good english and knows lot of hiking trails in the area and we recommend more than 1 night at this beautiful place to discover the place. We hope to come back soon.

Company info
Me Sean(Xia Shan Quan), which opened in 1983 has so far in this inn snowballing development, is the first open tiger-leaping gorge pedestrianism adventure tourism, the founder of the open web site is the region's first English speaking, successively by the international and domestic farmers in more than 40 media and TV translation officer, now again to a collective big farm walnut product packaging and sales business, hope all the patriotic people more support about our collective economy and the original ecological food supply, we are the only one focused on regional development in our region and maintain the natural harmonious coexistence of the inn.
Property info
Our second visit (first in 2011) to Sean's as part of an Action Asia 100km Ultramarathon held over three days around and particularly above Tiger Leaping Gorge in Yunan Province. When you have raced up to 40 km per day at altitudes of 3000m you need a decent place to stay and Sean's is excellent. The owners and staff speak better English than at the Intercontinental Hotel in Kunming! Most customers are trekking in the surrounding areas. Remember this is a fairly basic guest house with interesting decorative tastes but it is clean, comfortable and the food is very good but takes time if there is a large group. A warm welcome and a cold beer at the end of a long day. The view is absolutely incredible on the edge of the Gorge looking straight up at one of the most sheer cliffs in the word rising up to over 5000m. Make sure you trek the high route along Tiger Leaping Gorge for the most spectacular views rather than going down into the tourist area with thousands of domestic tourists.
Neighborhood info
Open the window of the inn can see yulong, haba snow mountain and the whole view of tiger leaping gorge, the inn commanding, a field in front of the courtyard pastoral scenery, sitting in the front yard can enjoy the folk customs and field labor scene of life, yard layout of different aromatic flowers are open all the four seasons, walking tiger leaping gorge attractions;Deep ditch bamboo waterfall;Overlooking the highest point of the whole gorge "empty joy", circuitous need 5-6 hours, such as first came to the inn, and then choose your hiking route is the best way for you to travel tiger leaping gorge, you can find your own independent space, enjoy the unique nature of the good time!
