We were in the newer rooms which were lovely with new bathrooms, It was really clean and has a lovely courtyard area. Bruce speaks English and can arrange any sightseeing or trips into the Gorge, etc. So you don't really have to plan anything ahead if you are staying here. The morning breakfast was excellent as well. Easy walk to... More

We were so glad we stayed in Shuhe rather than Lijiang. Bruce's place isn't too far but a bit of a walk to the old town, though the walk is quiet and pretty. The place itself looks beautiful with lots of flowers, plants and a small pond. The building has kept all the traditional elegance. The room was very comfortable... More

Bruce's chalet is an absolute gem and not to be missed if you are visiting Lijiang . I spend a lot of my time traveling the world staying in highly efficient but soulless five star hotels . In contrast Bruce's chalet has soul ;brought about by its great location , super rooms and the host himself , Bruce . We... More

The Chalets enclose a court yard garden... More

My family and I just finished our 3 night stay here. We had 2 rooms. One with a dble bed and one with a king bed which was suppose to be mountain view. I am not sure why this place has such great reviews. I must be missing something. The place is NOT in Shuhe old village but actually about... More

Bruce and his staff were very helpful and offered good advice about the area. Nice rooms, all the comforts, clean, no problems. Excellent breakfast. Great value for money. Met other nice travelers while staying there and enjoyed a drink and a chat in the courtyard. Thank you Bruce!

Bruce and Bella and their assistant try to satisfy all their visitors. Their warmth and hospitality made all of us forget how cold the morning was during the Christmas holiday by preparing a huge, delicious, breakfast with local offerings chased with continuous cups of coffee and tea. On Christmas Eve, they had a bar-b-que with all the guests taking turns... More
