Hotels in Cai Village/Longkan Wharf, Dali City

Cleanliness: The room was very clean. Facilities: It had all the necessary amenities, and I was pleasantly surprised to find a razor. A small suggestion though: the hairdryer's power was a bit weak, which isn't ideal for long-haired women. Environment: I'm extremely satisfied with the room's location. Waking up early, I could see the beautiful Erhai Lake and the sunrise. A small suggestion for vacationers would be to have a speaker in the room for a better experience. You can also access the lakeside directly from the small courtyard behind the room. Service: They contacted me in advance by phone and WeChat to confirm my arrival time. My train arrived around 10:00 PM, and about 20 minutes before I landed, they proactively asked if I had arrived in Dali. The small buggy in the picture is also quite stylish.

Absolutely loved the all-white aesthetic – it's so new, clean, and comfortable, making me feel completely relaxed. The location couldn't be better, perfect for anyone vacationing at Erhai Lake. You step right out of the guesthouse onto the lakefront, and having restaurants and various transportation rentals nearby is incredibly convenient. I loved being able to gaze at the Erhai scenery from my room and truly enjoy life. It's only a 3-minute walk to Longkan Pier. I'll definitely be back!

First off, the hotel's location is pretty central, roughly equidistant from the Ancient City and Erhai Lake, making it excellent value for money. It's super convenient that you can rent and return electric scooters right outside the hotel entrance. Taxis also drop you off directly at the hotel door. I'd highly recommend the electric scooters – they're powerful and fast, but do be careful! The hotel's interior, especially the garden, is very clean and elegant, and it has a really warm vibe. Secondly, the service here is genuinely outstanding. From the moment we arrived (we took a taxi directly into the underground garage, and since there's no elevator, a hotel staff member immediately appeared to help us with our luggage – super prompt response!). During check-in, they brought us tea and water, then personally escorted us to our room, explaining Dalian's attractions and local delicacies along the way. Their attention to detail was exceptional. Throughout our stay, whenever we went downstairs to the common areas, the owner was incredibly welcoming. We booked rooms with fantastic views multiple times; on clear days, the clouds over Cangshan Mountain are breathtaking. It was a very comfortable stay. You can just go downstairs, chat with the owner, have some tea, or simply relax – the pace is wonderfully slow and enjoyable. If I ever come back to Dalian, this is the only place I'll stay!

A perfect stay! The B&B has an elegant and unique atmosphere with beautiful, peaceful views. The design is simple yet grand, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The bedding is soft and skin-friendly, and everything is spotlessly clean. All the amenities you could need are provided, and the location is incredibly convenient for getting around. Definitely my top choice for accommodation.

The location is excellent, only about 50-60 meters from Caicun Pier Scenic Area. There's a large platform on the second floor where you can directly see Erhai Lake, making it incredibly convenient for watching the sunrise over the lake. The room is clean, tidy, spacious, and bright, with modern facilities and smart curtains and lighting. The bathroom features a fully smart toilet and disposable seat covers. The shower area is completely separate, ensuring a consistent water temperature and even water flow. The owner provides meticulous and thoughtful service. This was an excellent stay, definitely a five-star experience!

Regardless of whether I'm using Taobao or Ctrip, I rarely leave reviews, but I just have to give this place a thumbs-up. The day before yesterday, on my first day, after the taxi dropped me off at the designated spot, I contacted the hotel to ask if they could send a three-wheeler to pick up my luggage (the taxi driver mentioned that hotels here usually offer transfers). At the time, the hotel said they didn't, which made me feel like I’d fallen into a trap on my first day in Yunnan. Later, I realized it was only a few hundred meters walk, not far at all. Afterwards, hotel staff came to pick me up and help with my luggage (though I could have easily walked to the hotel myself, their service was so thoughtful they came out to meet me). In the afternoon, they even brought cake, coffee, and afternoon tea. In the evening, they proactively reminded me that hot milk was available. Throughout my stay, I felt the service was incredibly attentive. The room was also very clean; even my wife, who's a bit of a clean freak, thought the hotel was exceptionally well-maintained. Breakfast was also very good. It's rare to find such conscientious businesses these days, especially within a tourist area. It truly warmed my heart and prompted me to leave a positive review. An extra shout-out to the young man with glasses – he was incredibly kind!

The room is on the third floor. There are not many people in the off-season. The scenery is beautiful and it is very quiet. The bedding is also good, all pure cotton, and I slept very comfortably at night. Disposable items are provided in the room, which is very hygienic. There are breakfast shops, restaurants and supermarkets around, which is very convenient. The housekeeper girl is very enthusiastic and introduced a lot to me. She was also very enthusiastic after I arrived. It is a good B&B!

It's really suitable for the whole family to travel! Don't be afraid to bring children, because the room has prepared small slippers and small toys for the baby, which is intimate to the extreme. The proprietress is super enthusiastic and feels like coming to an old friend's small courtyard. Especially to say that the kitchen equipment is very complete, you can buy vegetables and make it yourself, you can also have a cup of freshly ground coffee, drink the afternoon tea prepared by the boss, and sit in the small yard full of flowers and plants to chat. It is a fairy day. 🥰

We had a fantastic experience staying at the hotel. Our room facing Erhai Lake, the room is new, comfortable and definitely clean. Despite language barrier, we are still able to communicate using digital translations tools. The moment we reached Dali Railway Station, the hotel continuously trying to reach us to guide us on the location. Once we reached the meeting point, they arranged to transport our three big luggages to the hotel, then we can easily walk to the hotel. The people are kind and very helpful, and always trying to provide what we need during our stay. We are so grateful to meet many kind person during our stay at Dali. For our next visit, Dali need definitely more than 1 night stay.

The room has a great view, you can see the sunrise right from the window without having to go out into the cold. The front desk gave us recommendations for activities and breakfast, and was always quick to respond. Very good.
