As part of a 3 week 2016 China journey including Shanghai, Beijing, Great Wall, Xi'an we spent 6 days in Yunnan. Stops included LiJiang, Middle Tiger Leaping Gorge, Dali, Xixhou Village and Shaxi. 
Shaxi is a quiet, beautiful village on an historic section of the ancient Tea Horse road. 
We stayed at the Old Theatre Inn which began as a village location for live theatre.  The small number of rooms are good size, comfortable, clean and traditional area decorated.  The Inn includes a main building and restaurant. The food was excellent and delicious. A great setting to eat, relax, talk and enjoy your favorite libation.
We enjoy local flavor, so took a local bus from LiJiang to Jianchuan town center, maybe 2 hours. A private driver than took us to the Inn, about 20 minutes.  The Inn  provides a ride to the nearby Shaxi village to walk around and enjoy. Worth the time.
I would definitely return to the Old Theatre should I ever return to Yunnan Province.

Traveling Yunnan Province, 2016

Really enjoyed our two night stay at the old theatre inn. Such a beautiful historic building. Rooms were cozy and comfortable. As it’s a historical building water pressure was a little low but this is a minor detail when staying somewhere so magical. Enjoyed delicious dinner and breakfast at the Inn. We had a car so it was easy to get around. Hotel is set in a small village about 2k from Shaxi old town. Was so glad to be staying here and not in the town itself. Staff were so helpful, efficient and kind. A great stay!

A wonderful, relaxing stay

Stunning location in the middle of arable farmland. Very helpful owner who organised for us to be picked up in the old town centre and then personally drove us into the old town in the evening. The rooms were  beautiful and clean but perhaps could have been aired a little more prior to our stay (perhaps leave doors open on nice days when no-one is staying).  It was also confusing as on Hotels.com the hotel showed up as a Dali location and we booked a train to Dali, only to find out it is actually in Shaxi, approximately a 2 hour drive from Dali.  On other sites it is called 'Shaxi Old Theatre Inn' and this clarifies it.  Also the telephone number quoted is incorrect and should be checked.

This hotel was perfect. The room was clean and well maintained. The hotel itself is a wonderful old building with great character. The breakfast was cooked to order. The hotel has bikes you can use to ride around the beautiful countryside and into Shaxi village. The staff could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Would definitely stay here again!

This is an amazing little boutique hotel with 5 rooms in a small village just 4km outside of Shaxi. The hotel is situated in a 200 year old complex with an old community theater.

The rooms are very stylish and comfortable. The hostess, Sam, is very helpful and speaks decent English. Furthermore, her staff prepares amazing dinners for 55 CNY per person, absolutely amazing. Breakfasts are tasty as well. 

Sam is also willing to help with laundry and other things as well. I absolutely recommend this place! We had a great stay!

Beautiful boutique hotel in a historic site

A magic place in the countryside; rooms are not huge but very tasteful, with a perfect shower. The restaurant is good, with a  wine list, and breakfast also very good. If you fancy something out of the ordinary and enjoy silence, this is the place for you.

A magic place

My husband and I stayed two nights in July 2018 in this fascinating place and we really enjoyed the stay. The staff is kind and helpful, tea and homemade biscuits were waiting for us at our arrival. The room is clean and has a kind of eco-eastern atmosphere and we appreciated the peacefulness of the place. Breakfast was ok: good bread and excellent homemade jam. The thing we enjoyed most was having dinner on the balcony in front of the old stage: a unique and romantic atmosphere! There is just one thing to improve: the food was good, but not very tasty.
