Good service and friendly staff. Staff immediately came out to help us with our luggages upon reaching. Breakfast was a nice and simple Chinese style breakfast. Big room and comfortable. Nice design. Easily accessible to many attractions and the ancient city is within walking distance. Staff also gave us flower cakes on our last day as we couldn’t make it for the breakfast. Thank you for the hospitality!
Response from Property: Thank you very much for choosing Ming Yue Tang. It is a great honor for you to come. It is also the attitude of our hotelers to serve you. I wish you a good trip. Welcome to Dali next time!

Hotel was about 10 minutes away from the ancient city of Dali. Hv criscross roads all with shops, restaurant & services. Cars, bikes, buses all cinpee with roafd space. Roads all look the same, so we were lost. I showed my hotel voucher with the hotel name & address in English.. Nobody cud help. Next time, get the hotel to write both the hotel name and address in Chinese.
We took a 3 wheeler taxi to Erhai lake park, rented bikes, cycled around the lake. One *****, riding a bike & selfie-ing, crashed into my daughter. If I was nearby, I wud hv snatched the bloody phone, and throw into the lake.
Response from Property: Thank you for staying at Dali Mingyuetang Inn. The inn is located at the north gate of the ancient city of Dali, near the Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple, March Street, Internet celebrity S Bay, Caicun and Longkan Wharf. Mingyuetang covers an area of 3800 square meters. One of the largest high-end B&Bs in the ancient city. The designer has perfectly combined Bai architecture and gardens. The yard is filled with various high-priced thousand-year-old trees (Dali green ceilings), restaurants, gyms, coffee shops, and book bars. , private parking lot, indoor and outdoor tea rooms, central air conditioning, international high-end bathrooms, elevators🛗, and conference rooms are very complete. Welcome to visit again!

Very good check-in experience, the boss and his wife are handsome, beautiful and very enthusiastic. When we parked in the wrong parking lot on the first day, the boss took the initiative to help move the car and carry the luggage. When we left, he also offered to help drag the luggage.
It was the Lantern Festival, and the boss asked the kitchen to prepare glutinous rice balls.
The room was very large, and it was very spacious for us three adults and two children.
The courtyard layout has several thousand-year-old trees, and there are all kinds of flowers and plants in the yard, and there are crazy succulents. There is a pond in the yard of the room we stayed in. There are carp in the pond for several days. You can see Cangshan Mountain and the Three Pagodas from a distance on the rooftop terrace. The photos show the photos of the Three Pagodas with lights on.
The hotel has its own parking lot. It is very close to the ancient city. There is a gas station nearby, which is very friendly to self-driving.
The boss also took souvenirs before leaving. It was a pleasant check-in experience.

Check-in for the Spring Festival in 2025 Qingxue Family Cangshan Ancient Tree Garden View Open Living Room
The number of hotels I have stayed in is quite large, but the hotel I booked in Dali this time actually gave me great expectations before checking in. This experience is rare.
The hotel is actually a homestay, a very distinctive homestay. The biggest feature is the garden-style design in the name. According to the introduction of the push, there are four courtyards, which have more than 200 years of hanging flower trees, more than 600 years of ancient tea trees, and 1100 years of "ghost willow". Putting aside the exquisite garden courtyard, just talking about these ancient trees and famous trees, it is very impressive, it sounds very advanced, and I am very curious about how it is done.
The hotel has three floors above ground and one underground parking lot, equipped with an elevator. The room we stayed in is very large, with two beds, one large and one small, and it is convenient to put the beds together, which is very friendly to families with two children. There are coffee tables and chairs in the open living room. If you order takeout, the whole family can sit together and eat quickly, without any sense of crampedness. It would be better if it could be equipped with a few small benches. The bathroom is still a large space, and there is a sliding door that can be completely separated from the bedroom. It can perfectly meet the needs of adults to wash or take a bath while the children are sleeping at night. The bathtub is equipped with a disposable bathtub cover, which is better than most hotels with bathtubs. The bathroom is equipped with Vaseline lotion, which can cope with the dry climate in Yunnan. I like the motto printed on the lotion bottle: "Life is actually very simple. Fight for what you like, cherish what you get, and forget what you lose." In addition, it is equipped with a smart toilet and the shower is okay. One day during the stay, the water temperature was slightly unstable.
Through the window of the room, you can see Cangshan Mountain and the Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple at the foot of Cangshan Mountain. The scenery is different during the day and night. For me who has infinite longing for the Three Pagodas in Dali, such a tower view room is really what I want. Every day when I have time, I will lean against the window and gaze at the ancient pagoda and Cangshan Mountain. It is the most pleasant time during the few days of stay.
The hotel's breakfast is a fixed set meal, with rice noodles served per seat, and a set of food combinations including pastries, eggs, sausages, peanuts, etc. The advantage is that the taste is good, especially the rice noodles. Correspondingly, it would be a bit monotonous to eat every day.
The hotel is located outside the north gate of Dali Ancient City, very close to the Three Pagodas. After checking in on the first day, I walked to the Three Pagodas of Chongsheng Temple, walked back to Dali Ancient City for dinner after the tour, and then walked back to the hotel. The distance was acceptable. It was 2.3 kilometers away from the Cangshan Zhonghe Cableway, which was not far. In extreme traffic jams, it was also possible to walk there, which could be used as a backup plan.
Finally, let's focus on the service. The staff in the entire hotel are very enthusiastic. Whenever they meet, they will take the initiative to say hello. It is not the kind of trained and programmed "hello" in regular hotels, but more like a greeting between familiar friends. I think this should be the legendary pursuit of opening a homestay in Dali, and it is also the advantage of differentiated competition. The boss can assist in arranging pick-up vehicles when checking in and out. After arriving at the hotel, someone will take the initiative to help carry the luggage. All kinds of needs generated during the check-in process can be solved in the first time, which feels very good.
Overall, it was a good stay experience for individuals and families, and it is recommended.

The meaning of meeting is to become the light that illuminates each other. At the moment when you set out on your journey home again, I sincerely wish that we will live in peace and happiness for the rest of our lives in this world where the road is long and the horses are rushing.

A hotel with a very design sense, the garden style is very distinctive. We booked two rooms, one of which was upgraded to the other in the same courtyard. The room was large and comfortable, and you could see the sunrise, Cangshan Mountain and the Three Pagodas from the roof. The check-in time happened to be the last day, and the hotel started to be fully renovated from the next day. We were supposed to check out at 12 o'clock, but because someone in the family was sick and we were leaving at night, the boss was very generous and let us stay as long as we wanted, until 8 o'clock in the evening. The boss was very nice. During the period, he came to ask about our recovery and gave us flower cakes and brown sugar as souvenirs. I wish the boss a prosperous business after the renovation!

The Chinese-style design, spacious rooms, and convenient access to the ancient city. There is a bathtub, a TV, and complete disposable supplies. There is a 200-year-old osmanthus tree in the yard, and many tree species over 100 years old. There is a gym and a book bar. It is very comfortable to stay in the hotel without going out. I will continue to stay here next time.

1. The boss is handsome, the boss lady is beautiful, and the service is very good.
2. The child's pants were wet. The waiter hung the clothes for us using the hotel's washing machine.
3. The boss also upgraded the room, which is large and has a big bed. It's very good!
4. The breakfast is also very delicious, with rice noodles!
5. The location is very close to Dali Ancient Town and can be walked.
6. The hotel has 3 courtyards, and the plants in the courtyards are also very beautiful. You can see Cangshan Mountain from the roof during the day.

Right next to the north gate of Dali Ancient City, there is a very charming Mingyuetang. It is hidden in the bustle, but it has a unique tranquility. Every brick, tile, grass and tree exudes a simple and luxurious atmosphere!
Environment: There are three courtyards in the inn, and there are lush green plants everywhere, as if you have entered a green fairy tale world. Here, time slows down, and you can immerse yourself in the slow life of Yunnan. It is really comfortable👀

Travel with children to Dali during off-peak hours and stay at this hotel
Facilities: The overall style is simple, the room is quite large, and there is a small balcony. The three towers can be seen from the rooftop on the fourth floor of the hotel.
Sanitation: The sanitary conditions are good, with disposable toilet mats and bathtub bags. This is the first time I have seen a hotel with laundry detergent (very detailed)
Environment: It is just next to the Dali Ancient Town, about a 10-minute walk. There are many Yunnan specialty snacks in the morning market
Service: The staff in the store are very enthusiastic and greet each other when they meet. The rice noodles in the breakfast are delicious, and a Yunnan specialty souvenir is given when leaving the store.
