松赞奔子栏山居 山谷环抱中的观星胜地 一墙紫藤、满园香草,在海拔陡降的干热河谷,松赞奔子栏山居以一派岁月静美的姿态,隐逸在村庄的旁边,直面开阔的绿色山谷。酒店拥有一栋标志性的石砌藏式小楼,共设10间客房,皆以鲜明的藏式风格装饰,精美的老家具、藏毯、传统手工艺品随处可见。呈山谷地貌的奔子栏,光污染极少,是滇藏地区观星胜地之一。山居门前庭院的黄果树下凉风习习,既是用餐、饮茶的小憩处,也是夜谈、赏星的舒适据点。

Really like the service and the view of cafe. The daily trip arranged by hotel with picnic is highly recommended. Dinner is well organized as fixed menu buffet you could add as much as you want. To summarize, great experience!

We stayed here for two nights during Chinese New Year 2021, we were the only guests one of the night but they team really treat us like their family. We had a family style dinner that young chef came out to check how we enjoyed everything. We saw the chef went to the small farm next to the lodge to pick up fresh veggies. We have a family suite on top of the lodge and the view toward the valley and temple was really fun. We really felt like we are part of the village life There is a terrace on 4th floor, where we looked at whole sky of stars. The team even invited us to join them for fireworks on the roof! Really miss this family!

This boutique lodge is tucked away at this quiet little village surrounded with barley and wheat field. What a lovely surprise spending few days here with total relaxation and wonderful hospitality. Everything we were craving for, down-to-earth hospitality, simple meals throughout the day and beautiful matsutake mushroom feast ( we were in the middle of mushroom seasons), from sashimi matsutake to pan-fried or stir-fried matsutake, just simply ask the front desk, and the daily finds from the nearby villager at your door step within mins. Don’t forget to drop by at Estelle’s guesthouse which is located at approximately 3 mins walk from the lodge, either have a meal or a coffee in the afternoon, unwind and be inspired with amazing stories from the owner’s over 20 years adventure in Yunnan.

Very charming small hotel located in a small village among the mountains, very warmy and hospitable hotel staff, especially the manager(!). Everywhere clean, fresh, warm - especially by the burning fireplace. Local food was tasty - especially lunches and dinners. Here you feel like you are visiting a close family. Everybody want you to be happy and glad here. The rooms are spacious, well-equipped, beautifully decorated with very comfortable large beds. A small disadvantage for a foreign tourist - hotel staff does not know English at all - thank God the manager saved the situation - she could communicate with us in English. Many thanks to Ms. Manager!

Very peaceful hotel, enjoyed relaxing in the library and playing the board games. After our morning hike they set up a glamorous hotpot picnic on the hillside, and in the afternoon our kids loved painting the wooden bowls. The evening meal was a real treat, the lemon chicken was particularly delicious, and the food presentation was 10 out of 10.

Located in Bairen Village, Songtsam Benzilan is located so close yet appears far away from town. To hear the constant stream of spring water and the rattling of the cows’ bells as they roamed about freely was magic. Drove up to the mountain top to small village, Niding which leads to what I call the Swiss Alps of China with a beautiful hike down.

This was our first stay in a Songtsam hotel and we really enjoyed it. We drove from the airport in Shangri-La through beautiful countryside and were amazed when the beautiful lodge appeared at the end of the dirt road. In a way, it reminded us of houses in Switzerland. We were welcomed warmly, our luggage was upstairs in a matter of minutes and we were sitting outside in the sunshine having a fantastic lunch in no time at all. Inside, the lodge is beautiful with dark wood panelling and floors. Everything is very clean and well kept, nothing is too much trouble. They provided us with slippers so they could clean our hiking shoes and told us to take them with us to the next lodge. The young manager keeps a close eye on everything. He speaks good English and the other staff members know the basics. But any lack of English is made up for by their friendliness and genuine desire to offer great hospitality. The food is excellent. Normally we do not eat lunch, but we gladly made an exception here. At dinner we had our first yak meat and loved it. After dinner it was nice to chat to other like-minded travellers over a glass of wine. Breakfast offered everything we needed. Certainly it was not a 5-star buffet but the food was fresh and nicely presented. The coffee was good. Our room was large and very comfortable. We had a lovely view over the canyon and the little shrine in the middle. We enjoyed a great hike through several villages with our guide. The nearby monastery was extremely interesting and well worthwhile. We stayed two nights here and really enjoyed it. A great start to our trip through Tibet.
