Hotels in Haidong Town/Ideal City, Dali City

Choosing Yan Yun Hotel was absolutely the best decision for my trip to Dali. My only regret is that I only booked one night and had to leave so soon. The environment here is absolutely stunning, and the service is top-notch. The breakfast was delicious, and they even offered a complimentary afternoon tea set. The staff were incredibly warm and helpful. They also provide electric shuttle service for getting in and out. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next visit to Dali!

Following the travel guide provided by the owner, we visited some incredibly scenic spots. The owner also recommended many delicious restaurants and snack bars that offered great taste at reasonable prices. The hotel's location is fantastic, with parking right outside and an elevator, which is super convenient for elderly guests and those with luggage. The owners, a husband and wife duo, are incredibly warm and attentive. They made sure we had plenty of bottled water, and our room was spotless and well-maintained. The decor is stylish and modern, perfect for couples, and the facilities are comprehensive. The hot water supply was excellent with strong water pressure, making for a very comfortable bath in the tub. The smart voice-controlled curtains opened up to a stunning sea view, which was a lovely touch. We were especially touched when the owner offered us a free ride to the airport for our late-night flight, as it was difficult for us to arrange transport with our elderly parents and children. Given the affordable price, the owners' exceptional hospitality, and the cleanliness, this hotel left a deep impression on us. If we ever come back to Dali, we'll definitely choose this place again.

Their service is incredible and the hotel is very clean. Staff were friendly and really helpful, thanks to them for offering a suitable solution for my sick friend who needed more rest. We didn’t get the time to walk around the hotel, so the pictures I took were mainly the surrounding area which was beautiful. (Didn’t expect to see so many 蓝花 still at the end of May) As for the room, it was big and spacious. First picture is view, last picture was when we were stargazing. The only things to note is that there isn’t really a place for clothes in the shower area, only a small place to hold shower bottles. Another would be the need to plug the insect repellent to the switch upon entering the room. We were oblivious at first so there were many mosquitoes in the common area, and thankfully none in the other room. Finally a tip, you can ask them to transport you to 理想邦 and there is also a discount. Overall, we had a lovely stay thanks to the hotel’s hospitality☺️

For our Dali trip, I specifically booked a stay at the Dali Ocean Hotel. I had reserved an underwater room, and my daughter absolutely loved it. She spent her time on the bay window watching the fish, practically sleeping and waking up with them! The hotel also included a complimentary diving experience, but unfortunately, my husband was a bit scared and couldn't go through with it. The front desk staff were incredibly welcoming. I absolutely love this hotel and will definitely be back!

[Dali Blue and White Sea View Design Hotel | The perfect experience of lying down and watching Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake 🌊✨] This magical hotel must be given a five-star rating! I was amazed the first moment I checked into the sea view room - it seemed like a flowing landscape painting was hanging outside the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window, Cangshan Mountain was shrouded in mist, and Erhai Lake was sparkling. Every day when I opened my eyes, I could see the healing blue, and at night I could fall asleep to the sound of the waves 🌙 ▪️ **The room is full of details**: The 180° viewing bathtub faces Erhai Lake directly, and you feel like you own the entire lake when taking a bath! The bedding is as soft as clouds and any photo taken will look like an Instagram-style blockbuster. ▪️ **The service is comparable to five-star**: The lady at the front desk took the initiative to help with the luggage. When she learned that we were catching an early bus, she specially prepared a portable breakfast in advance. This kind of detail-oriented service really warms my heart💐 ▪️ **Excellent location**: 5 minutes walk to the Erhai Lake Ecological Corridor, where you can rent a bicycle and start cycling around the sea! The hotel has its own viewing restaurant. The cross-bridge rice noodles for breakfast are so delicious that they make your eyebrows drop. In the evening, you can watch the pink and purple sunset covering the sky from the terrace. The romance value is immediately maxed out! Next time I come to Dali, I will definitely go there! If I have to find a flaw...it's probably that it's so beautiful that you don't want to go out 😭 Sisters, listen to me, choose a room with a sea view! You will come back to thank me! !

I had an amazing stay at the Cliff Hotel. The property is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere that made the entire experience feel luxurious and peaceful. The amenities were excellent, everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed for guests to enjoy. What really stood out most was the service. The staff was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and helpful throughout my stay. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Overall, a fantastic experience and I would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a beautiful hotel with outstanding service and great amenities.

The hotel sits on a cliff overlooking the Erhai Lake. Our room got a free upgrade to a large room, which we are very happy with! The bed has an incredible view of the lake as well. The top of the hotel has this photography area that has the lake as a background. The breakfast was sent to the room. We requested for halal breakfast, and they accommodated well with veggies and eggs. They don’t have bread, tho 😭 Shout out to our attentive butler, picking us up at the train station, waited for us till 1am at night to open the doors for us and is available 24/7. Truly appreciate the services! The hotel is a bit far to the Ancient City, so you have to remember that when you make your plans. The DiDi was a bit more expensive comparing to staying in the inner city, but well worth it.

After so many days in Yunnan, this B&B was by far the best place I've stayed. The environment is lovely; I could see the ocean right from my window. There's an outdoor balcony with a rocking chair, and the curtains are smart-controlled. Inside, there's a bathtub, a fridge, and a dressing table, which was convenient for doing my makeup. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area and a smart toilet. Most importantly, the service was exceptional. Whenever I called the front desk, I received an immediate response. They even gave me a small gift even though I only stayed one night. It was a fantastic experience, and if I ever come back to Dali, I'd definitely choose this place again! 🥰🫶🏻

I was really happy with the room's decor. The view outside was great; even though I didn't get a full sea view room, the partial sea view was still lovely. If I get to stay here again, I'll definitely choose a full sea view room. The front desk staff (the 'little brother' as we say in Chinese for a young male staff member) were super friendly and attentive. All in all, I was quite satisfied. They offered some complimentary travel photos, which I thought turned out pretty well, so I ended up buying a few more. It was a very happy and memorable vacation! 😁😁
