"Great place to stay if you want to explore the old city or go hiking in the nearby mountains."
Dali Ancient City. Shanyuyishe Boutique B&B
"Awesome! My kid absolutely loved Laicai the cat and said they want to come back again! The hotel is super close to the ancient city; you just go down a slope and cross the road to get there. And when you visit the ancient city, don't forget to check out the little squirrels at the Confucian Temple!"
Santorini Cloud National Tide Sea View Resort Dali
"Highly recommend the Ideal Gang Ocean View Resort! The first-line ocean view setting is superb, and the common areas are clean and elegant, creating a wonderful atmosphere. The facilities are high-end and practical, and the guest rooms are spacious and bright with fantastic panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows. All sorts of amenities are readily available. The cleanliness is top-notch; floors and countertops are spotless, toiletries are hygienic, and housekeeping service is attentive and timely. The entire experience was comfortable and pleasant, offering excellent value for money!"
Dali Sheyu Secret Garden Inn (South Gate of Dali Ancient City)
"This lovely B&B, recommended by friends and family, is conveniently located right next to Dali Ancient City. As soon as I stepped inside, I felt like I'd entered a vibrant, healing succulent paradise! The courtyard, hallways, and even the room windowsills were adorned with an array of uniquely shaped, colorful succulent pots. There were plump 'Peach Eggs,' layered 'Echeverias,' and 'Mountain Roses' that looked just like tiny roses, all shimmering under the sunlight. Even more delightful was discovering it's a cat haven! Several cats, each with their own distinct personality, roamed freely – some lazily sunbathing, others playfully darting about, and a few elegantly strolling. They weren't shy at all and would even come rub against your leg, practically begging for pets, instantly melting away any stress. The B&B owner is a warm and chatty young man. He not only helped with my luggage and gave recommendations for nearby attractions, but also thoughtfully prepared local snacks. His attentive and detailed service made me feel incredibly welcome. The room itself was cozy and comfortable, featuring wooden furniture paired with soft bedding. Outside the window, there was a lush green mountain view, and at night, you could hear the chirping of insects and birds. The serene environment made me want to simply unwind there and savor a slow-paced life away from the hustle and bustle."
Erhai Lakeview Apartments,Dali
"The room were as shown in the picture.. But there is no closets in the room, no proper place to hang our clothing. Thus our clothing were placed all over the apartment. The butler 小乐 provide excellent service and caring."
Dai'an • Jinyuan (Dali Ancient City)
"I saw this store online while traveling in Dali, and the reviews were pretty good, so I made a reservation. The store was very clean and had a great environment. They even offered free coffee, and the prices were quite reasonable. It's especially suitable for tourists. Highly recommended!"
Memory and residence
"The room was very clean. When we first arrived, there were no rooms available, so the owner upgraded us for free, which was great. My wife scraped her ankle while playing by Erhai Lake, and the guesthouse even provided free iodine swabs and band-aids. The service was excellent, and the owner was very welcoming. Dali's scenery is beautiful!"

Inner House
"The hotel's location is superb, right by Erhai Lake. You can truly enjoy the beautiful sunrise from your room through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making for a very relaxing stay. If I ever come back to Dali, I'll definitely choose Yifang Qingchen again."
Dele Mingshu First Line Sea View Hotel (Dali Erhai Longkan Wharf)
"The location is absolutely fantastic! What a treat to spend the evenings strolling by Erhai Lake, listening to music and enjoying the breeze – it was incredibly relaxing! It definitely makes you want to come back. Plus, having 'Grandpa Don't Make Tea' right downstairs is super convenient!"
Xiaolu Chenke Island Neighbor Sea View Hotel (Erhai Branch)
"Really love the Hotel, the pretty girl receptionists !! She’s really kind! Sadly we had to leave early for the train and unable to say goodbye to her . The view was really santorini vibes !! The room was great! Smart hotel concept !!"
Erhai Lake · Jingxi Courtyard Homestay (Ideal State Branch)
"The owner was very welcoming and even treated us to some authentic Bai cuisine. We had a delightful time and the property has a huge yard!"
Dali Old City Yueshan Haiban Villa Luxury Hotel
"The check-in experience was smooth, and Echo's service was just right – not overly intrusive. The room was clean and tidy, with all the facilities in good working order. The internet was stable, and the bathroom experience was excellent. The environment was peaceful, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Since it was peak season and rainy season in Dali, you might need to book a taxi in advance. The value for money was remarkable, offering a significant advantage compared to other hotels of the same standard. Staying here made our trip very reassuring, and I genuinely recommend it to everyone."
ARANYA Resort Hotel
"We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Our concierge by the name of Luke was one of the most thoughtful hosts I have ever met - always attentive and responsive. Brought us warm milk at night, helped us with complimentary laundry, referred us and arranged for a driver for us to our next city. The view is breathtaking. The only possible downside for guests wanting to spend time in Dali ancient city is that one would need to commute for approximately 30-45 minutes depending on traffic. I would recommend this hotel and would go back again."
Pullman Dali
"The room was very spacious. Our hotel's personal butler, Olivia, contacted us on WeChat beforehand and was incredibly thoughtful and patient. 👍 The room view was also great. We even saw fireworks over Erhai Lake in the distance at night! 🎆"
Dali Palace Hotel
"The Wanggong Hotel was super cozy. We stayed in a family room, and our baby absolutely loved the tatami area – they didn't want to leave the room! It was especially quiet at night, so we all slept really well."
Jumo · Banshanju | Linhai Tingfeng Art Homestay (Longkan Wharf Erhai Lake)
"Pushing open the wooden door, you're enveloped in a warm, inviting atmosphere. The interplay of rammed earth walls and old wooden beams imbues every detail with the texture of time. Warm yellow light and the scent of wood create a sense of tranquility, slowing even your breathing. The room is a loft-style space. The upper level daybed is gently embraced by wooden-framed windows, while the lower level's small window overlooks the courtyard pool. Sunlight streams in, and even the breeze carries a sense of languid comfort. Potted plants in the corner are in full bloom, and a small rattan table by the window is perfect for brewing tea and daydreaming. The wooden stairs creak with every step, as if telling a story of bygone days. The owner is thoughtful and meticulous, providing peace of mind from check-in to check-out. There's no excessive commercialization here, only a perfectly relaxed atmosphere—a perfect escape from the city's hustle and bustle. Next time I'm in Dali, I'll definitely stay here again!"
Days Inn by Wyndham Dali Erhai Park
"I'd describe this as a basic budget hotel. The facilities are quite dated, and it doesn't quite measure up to a Days Inn by Wyndham. It's located right next to Erhai Lake Park. A taxi ride to Dali Old Town costs about 40+ RMB and takes nearly an hour. The hotel's top floor offers views of Erhai Lake. There's a bus stop downstairs with routes to Dali Station or Haidong Town, but be warned, buses are notoriously difficult to catch. Breakfast was average, and the same spread was offered for three days straight, though thankfully, there were some hot, cooked items. The room itself was reasonably clean and tidy. Overall, it's decent, especially considering the price point."
Dali Hexi Shanshe Qinglan
"The owners are very welcoming and the room is spacious, equipped with a sofa and tea table, which is very convenient. It's only a few hundred meters from the ancient city and very close to the food street. The bus station is right across the street, and electric scooter rentals are next door, which is super handy. The courtyard gate is also beautiful."
zhao ri xian yun Seaview Hotel
"This B&B truly exceeded my expectations! The room had an amazing view; I could watch the stunning sunrise right from my bed, which really set a fantastic mood. The location was super convenient, making it easy to get around and explore. The breakfast was varied and delicious, leaving me feeling satisfied every morning. The owner and staff were incredibly warm and thoughtful, providing excellent service. Plus, there was free coffee available, and it tasted great. Overall, it was a perfect experience, and I'll definitely choose this place again on my next visit. Highly recommended!"
Dalisushiji lnn
"The guesthouse is located within the ancient city walls, offering a peaceful retreat amidst the hustle and bustle. The owner is incredibly kind and always smiling, providing prompt service whenever needed. They even upgraded our room! We stayed for several days and will definitely choose this place again on our next visit."
The One Hotels & Resorts
"This is my go-to hotel every time I visit Dali. It's conveniently located, close to the ancient city gate. The service is excellent. My favorite part is the courtyard."
See You Again Dali - Artisan - Erhai Love Affair B&B (Caicun Seaview)
"This has been the best B&B experience I've had in Yunnan so far! The room looks exactly like the pictures. The B&B is near Caicun village, and we stayed on the 3rd floor, which offered fantastic views. In front, we had the beautiful S-bend of Erhai Lake, and behind, large wisteria bushes and Cangshan Mountain. There's also an observation deck upstairs for even more unobstructed views. The room is spacious, with high-tech amenities and large floor-to-ceiling windows, so you can enjoy the scenery just by opening the curtains. I was pleasantly surprised that the water heater provided instant hot water. The courtyard is very clean, and the host even helped us with our luggage. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. (If you're driving, I'd recommend parking outside the village, as the roads inside are very narrow, making it difficult to pass oncoming cars and easy to scrape your vehicle.)"
Dali Ancient City Canghai Wangyue Courtyard (Honglongjing)
"The room was very clean, the owner was very welcoming and even gave us some travel tips. It was the best hotel in its price range during our stay in Dali. We had a direct view of Erhai Lake from the upper floors, parking was convenient, and it was very close to the old town."
