Was impressed by the quaint look of the hotel with lots of flowers at the lobby. The surrounding sceneries were beautiful as well. Rooms were slightly below average and were outdated. Restaurant buffet breakfast had a wide selection of local dishes and fruits . However staff at restaurant were quite rude. Did not enjoy the food except for the fruits.... More

Huge foyer filled with potted flowers/plants. There are no roll-on bed or triple room in hotel, so three of us were given a family room (two adjoining rooms with total four big bed but one master toilet). Rooms & toilet are clean with amenities provided. TV programs are mostly Chinese except for 1-2 channels on English shows. Breakfast spread is... More

Modern hotel,nice rooms & bathroom (toilet paper seems to be rationed!), good bath & shower. TV has 20 channels but all Chinese - good if you can understand it? Good comfortable King size bed Evening meal was tasteless - wouldn't recommend it! Food is dubious at breakfast as it is buffet style and could have been standing around or reused.... More

Arrived from a very early flight, in the pouring rain... so the first impression was hard to make. BUT, the staff had graciously prepared our room for an early check in. When the rain stopped, we saw a gorgeous lake view. The room has a comfortable king bed, but all the other furniture seems out of the late 70's...not bad,... More

Stayed in June 2012 (so this is a little late) as part of a Wendy Wu tour. Had read some very disappointing reviews about this hotel, especially the breakfast, so not looking forward to it. However, the management had apparently changed and it seemed that it was in the process of changing its name to the Asia Star Garden Hotel... More

Our room was clean and comfortable. We had a view of the lake and the main road. You can hear the traffic but it's bearable. Breakfast was a disappointing but adequate. The hotel is within walking distance of the south gate but there is also a free shuttle bus that can take you into the old city. If you are... More

We stayed here on a tour of Yunnan province. It was by far the best hotel of the tour. Rooms: All of those we (a group of 5) stayed in were clean with good amenities and space compared to everywhere else the company put us up on our tour. The shampoos and soaps and other extras of the room (like... More

Well located, luxureous hotel at a great price. Would stay here again. Nice rooms with all thinkable conveniences + great lounge/reception (with very good and cheap espresso). From 7 pm a shuttle bus brings you every half hour to the center of the old town, which is not yet as spoiled as Lijiang.

The Asian Star hotel has three things to recommend it - updated clean bathrooms, an evening shuttle to Foreigner Street (since you are not within walking distance), excellent reflexology at a very good price. The room was basic, the windows leaked when it rained, the room lights could be turned on/off from the room door only and the TV didn't... More
