点评： The White Lion is in the middle of things on West Street. Our room wasn't luxurious, but it was comfortable & clean, & cheap, & we stayed 5 nights. One convenience was a desktop with Internet in the lobby. The staff knocked themselves out to be helpful. E.g., when they recommended a Li River boat ride, the manager walked us to the bus station to make sure we got on the right bus. What I hadn't realized was that she'd also phoned someone at the other end to obtain a boat at the right price, so that was a pleasant surprise.
We spent time every evening sitting in the lobby with the owner (who resides in the U.S. but was there when we were) & manager watching the parade of people pass by on the street. Very entertaining.
Also, the hotel runs a charity which helps local students & schools. They've built playgrounds & libraries & pay the tuition for several destitute children. Some of those students stopped in while we were there. This is a superb grass-roots charity with no overhead or corruption.

点评： The White Lion Hotel staff and accommodations were perfect for your family of 6 (kids from 6-13) to experience China. What made it so ideal? Location, location, location - plus the quality service of the staff. Although most American's will need to be ready for a grade above a backpackers hotel, the benefits far out-weight those amenity limitations. What are the specific benefits? The location is so close to so many restaurants - all affordable and with a variety that goes from American food to European to traditional Chinese. The location is close to so many natural beauties - Moon Hill, the caves, and just looking around at the unique mountains is enough to take your breadth away. The location is also perfect for shopping and conversing with Chinese in English (given the many English language schools in the area). I've been around the world several times, and I can't wait to get our family back to the White Lion Hotel. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.
