Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaFirst of all, Julia - the manager of the Inn, is exceptionally friendly, helpful, and attentive, including her small Team of staff. Julia started reaching out to us well before we arrive in China via first by Whatsapp and then we communicate on WeChat. She arranged someone to pick us up from the Train Station, and later also send us back when we left. Julia also made full arrangement for us for a day trip to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, including a Driver and tickets, with not extra charges, and also discounted ticket to The Legend of Romance show. The Inn is very nice - clean, comfortable, and very quiet - BIG room with ensuite with a BIG bathtub. The whole property just make us feel relax and welcoming. It is located about 500m from the Carpark, with lots of restaurants just 20-50m away (ask Julia, she has a good list of suggestion). It is a bit out of the busy area in the Old Town, but that's exactly what we wanted. Best of all, it is behind the Police Station of the Old Town - so probably the safest place around :) Cannot thanks enough for Julia and her Team hospitality - the fantastic tea and fruits served when we reach "home", the chatting sharing of local info (Julia is very informative), and the small menu breakfast with fantastic coffee that's good enough for the start of the day. I have no knowledge of other accommodations in Lijiang Old Town, but if I ever go back Lijiang and Julia is there, I will certainly stay at Artistic Suite again.

Singapore-
I was amazed the moment when we stepped into the room. It was smoke free, extremely clean and spacious! It was a bidet toilet in mine too! Not just the room, the entire front desk, environment etc was super clean and welcoming. The owner, Julia was extremely friendly and helpful during the entire trip. She reached out before the trip to check in about our transport and also helped made suggestions for during the trip. When I fell sick, Julia advised on going to the hospital which turned out to be a wise decision❤️ As I was sick, we had to call off our plans to yulong mountain. Thankfully we booked through the hotel and Julia managed to get majority of the fees refunded (only paid 190Rmb in the end). Can’t imagine having to deal with trip cancellation/all these admin things when I’m sick. Super thankful and appreciative of their help. Value for money and it’s located right in 古城which means easy access to food/shopping as well. Tip: if you’re going there by car, just be aware that cars can’t drive into 古城。 Easily solved by arranging with the owner, Julia and she can arrange for the cyclist/motorcyclist cart to transport our luggages from the nearest pickup point. Would stay again if I’m back to Lijiang 💯 thank you to their entire team including xiao rou and Jeff!

SingaporeWe had a wonderful stay at this charming accommodation in Lijiang Old Town. The place was rustic and beautifully designed, capturing the essence and character of the area perfectly. Its central location made it incredibly convenient to explore the old town on foot, with lots of shops, restaurants, and sights just steps away. Since cars can’t drive into the old town, the host thoughtfully arranged for someone to help bring our luggage in, which made our arrival smooth and stress-free. Every time we returned, we were warmly greeted with a smile, and they often offered us tea or snacks — a small gesture that made us feel truly welcomed and at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a cozy, authentic experience right in the heart of Lijiang!

CanadaThe hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff were professional and responded to our many needs and endless requests for information and support, including arranging tickets to local events and confirming arrangements for our next stop of our itinerary. We had a wonderful 4 day stay and would recommend this hotel to family and friends.
The breakfast was excellent. It was simple but personally made to order by a pleasant staff person. The food was served hot and fresh. It was included in the cost. The location was amazing. It conveniently located in the heart of the ancient town. With plenty of support with directions and arrangements of transportation. We were picked and dropped off at the train station. The room was spacious, bright, carefully laid out, consistent with old town character yet provided modern amenities. Julia and Jeffrey take a very personal approach to managing their hotel. The reception /customer service staff were exceptional. We were very impressed!

United StatesThis is my favorite hotel during my stay in Yunnan. It is in the center of the Lijiang Old Town with walking distance to tour around. The town is full of historical views and very stunning. Staff is very helpful and caring, particularly thanks to Julia and 晓晓. They could answer all our questions and give us recommendations for dining and scenery places for photo taking. Room was spacious and well-equipped. We also had special treats due to our wedding anniversary. Thanks Artistic-Suite!

SingaporeThe property was great, as is the location, but what won me over was the service - from before our stay (answering our queries on recommendations for photography studios), to during our stay (advising us on how to book our cable car rides for our day-trip to Yulong Mountain and preparing a take-away breakfast on our final day as we had to depart early in the morning), and after our stay (assisting with the collection of photos from the recommended photography studio) - I am impressed, and thankful.

ThailandSimply stated, everything. The staff were the most helpful in every way. The property is a classic ancient city home that has been modernized without losing any of its character. They did not oversell. It was everything and more than I expected. I have never given a full 10 until now and I very seldom give properties 9. I highly recommend Artistic Suited.

Amazing quaint b&b in the middle of the ancient city of lijiang. Rooms are spacious , clean, and comfortable. I soaked in the bathtub every day!
