Dali Old City Shiyuanju · Bai Local Culture Experience Store Holiday Villa (Nanmen Store) Reviews

Owner and her son are both friendly, willing to answer our questions if we have any doubts. Room is spacious. It would be good if there is underfloor heating system especially when the weather is cold.

Very convenient. The place is super clean and the staff are very accommodating. We are a family of seven (one 7 months old baby), and we all find it very nice. It's near old Town which is wonderful since most of our itinerary is around the old town. Would highly recommend!

We booked Dali Old City Shiyuanju - Bai Local Culture Holiday for the our holiday in Dali. Shi Yuan Jun, the owner of the villa was most welcoming upon our arrival. She asked us about our itinerary in Dali and shared information about places of interest such as Old Town, helped us arrange our tours, booked the tickets for us and gave useful advice such as taking a bus instead of the bullet train.  Service in the villa was also good. The bottom of the washbasin leaked and we informed her about it on the way out. The problem was fixed upon our return.  We left Dali for Lijiang after three days. An hour into our bus journey, I received a message from owner informing that I had left my hat behind. I was thinking about possible ways to get my hat such as having a courier send it to me in Lijiang, which would incur additional cost.  Another way would be to ask owner to bring the hat to the bus depot and ask the driver making the next trip to Lijiang to bring the hat.  I was a little hesitant to do this as it would mean troubling owner to make a trip to the bus depot. To my surprise she agreed readily and made arrangements with the bus driver within half an hour. To cut the story short, I got my hat back that same night. Needless to say I was most impressed that she went out of her way to help although I had left the hotel. If you travel to Dali, please do consider Hotel. You will definitely enjoy wonderful service there.

Great location. A little hard to find but it is situated off the busy streets so it’s quiet and we can sleep well. Hotel is closed to the South Gate, Dali ancient city. By foot, it’s about 10-15mins. Lots of restaurants around. Room is of a good size. Comfortable bed. Clean sheets, towels and basic amenities provided. Lady boss is very helpful and friendly. She offered us many good suggestions of places to visit and helped us to book transportation.

Excellent value for money, good location, clean and spacious. The hosts helped me with finding restaurants and things to do. They even gave me some Dali rose pastries as a parting gift 🥺

Travelling as a family of 4 with teens. Room was comfortable. Location was very near to Nanmen of Dali ancient town and near food (halal options available) there was bo bath mat provided but staff was friendly and helpful.

Staffs are very friendly and the rooms were really clean. We came in early about 12pm, and the staff allowed us to check in early at no charge and even let us choose if we want the 2nd floor room or 3rd floor.. We were so tired from the travelling, that when they allowed us to check in early, we were able to rest and recuperate.. The area is walking distance to Dali Ancient City, so there are plenty of things to discover.. Overall we are so satisfied with our stay here as foreigners .

A lot of amenities nearby and very accessible location in Dali ancient city

Service is very good from mother and son who run the hotel. Location is great, near to ancient city and good restaurants. The panoramic room is very comfortable , the bed and quilt are good quality. The blues chairs are comfortable to sit on to admire the beautiful view of Cangshan from picture window. Highly recommended.

Near ancient town, alot of attractions n food nearby.

The room is very clean and comfortable, with a large space. The toilet is separated into dry and wet areas and is very clean.

It is very close to the ancient city. There is a snack stand in the ancient city on the side. You can eat at any time. The hotel is very comfortable. We booked the hotel very late at night. The auntie also called us and upgraded our room for free because there was a vacancy.

The room is big and clean. There are many restaurants outside. There is free parking at the door, which is very convenient for self-driving. There is also an electric car rental nearby, which is very convenient for going to Longkan Wharf to watch the sunrise. It is very close to the South Gate and you can come back to rest when you are tired in a few minutes. You can also go there at night, which is very comfortable. I will stay here next time and recommend it to my friends.

Very high, great environment, clean and sanitary, the boss is also very nice
