Hotels with Rooftop Pools in Dali City

"The location is superb, right by the promenade. The surrounding environment is quiet and elegant, and you can enjoy the beautiful views of Cangshan and Erhai Lake just by opening the window – truly therapeutic. The butler service is attentive and thoughtful; any requests were promptly addressed, making for a very comfortable stay. They even offer airport drop-off service. The kids had a fantastic time, and breakfast was plentiful, with special non-spicy rice noodles made just for them."

"The location is right in the ancient city, and underground parking is convenient. There are also many great restaurants nearby, and best of all, it's not noisy. I especially want to mention the service. On the day of check-in, they proactively contacted me to give parking instructions and highlight important details, and helped recommend good places to eat and fun things to do nearby. After checking out, I forgot an item, and they immediately helped me retrieve it."

"Having afternoon tea with a view was an absolute delight, boasting a stunning sea vista! The half-mountain view was breathtaking; I could see Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake right from my bed. At sunset, the entire 'orange sea' stretched out before the window – even just staring at it felt blissful. The room design was simple yet luxurious, with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and a sea-view bathtub creating an amazing ambiance. The KingKoil mattress made for an exceptionally sound sleep, and details like L'Occitane toiletries and smart devices were perfectly thought out, making it clean and comfortable. The butler service was top-notch, offering attentive guidance from check-in to itinerary suggestions. They were quick to respond but never intrusive, allowing for a truly relaxed experience. Public areas like the 'Sky Mirror' and infinity pool were perfect for amazing photos. Breakfast was rich and delicious, and afternoon tea was incredibly soothing. It's a peaceful retreat amidst the hustle and bustle, conveniently located, allowing you to escape the noise while still easily experiencing local life. Next time I visit Dali, I'll definitely choose this place again to let the wind and light of Erhai Lake wash away all my fatigue."

"Qinglv Liushui Wangyue · Qiyun Room | Sleeping by Erhai Lake, living within a flowing green landscape🌿 🌊 Location and Environment: A tranquil waterside retreat amidst the bustling city This hotel is nestled within the vibrant atmosphere of Dali Xiaguan, yet it feels like a world of its own. Lively streets, delicious eateries, and convenient supermarkets are all within easy reach. However, stepping into the hotel instantly transports you away from the hustle and bustle, leaving only the gentle gurgle of the courtyard stream and the soft rustle of leaves in the breeze. The panoramic rooftop terrace and the viewing platforms in each room are my personal hidden gems. —During the day, I watched the waves of Erhai Lake; in the evening, I waited for the sunset's blue hour; at night, I gazed up at the starry sky. Every photo I took here was stunning, no filter needed. ✨ Qiyun Room Type: A healing space to watch the sea from bed The design of the Qiyun room perfectly blends 'luxury' with 'relaxation'. - Absolutely stunning views: The large floor-to-ceiling window acts like a flowing painting. Waking up in the morning, I could watch the mist over Erhai Lake slowly dissipate without even getting out of bed. Even just zoning out became a pleasure. - Impeccable details: Soft music played from the Marshall speaker, and the bedding was so soft it felt like sinking into a cloud, instantly melting away the fatigue of a day's travel. The large bathtub faced the window, and soaking in a hot bath while watching the clouds drift by made time seem to slow down. The full set of L'Occitane toiletries and the automatic heated smart toilet – every detail showed thoughtful care, making for a reassuring and comfortable stay. 🤍 Service and Experience: A journey enveloped in warmth From the moment I stepped into the hotel, I was touched by the attentive service. - The staff proactively helped with luggage and guided me through check-in, even carefully asking about my afternoon tea preferences. When returning late, the front desk would greet me with a warm smile and a cup of hot milk, which truly warmed my heart. - The timed meals provided by the hotel were an even bigger surprise: breakfast included freshly made rice noodles and exquisite pastries, the afternoon tea desserts were perfectly sweet without being cloying, and the 'goodnight sweet soup' before bed was a gentle ritual unique to Dali. 💡 Summary: A healing sanctuary you won't want to leave In the Qiyun room at Qinglv Liushui Wangyue, time seemed to flow differently. There was no need to rush itineraries or worry about trivial matters. I simply fell asleep to the sound of Erhai's waves and woke up to the morning glow of Cangshan Mountain, living each day like a poem amidst the flowing water and moonlight. Whether you're looking for a place to unwind and relax, or to capture stunning photos that will flood your social media, this is the perfect choice for Dali. The next time I visit Dali, I will definitely choose Qinglv again for another gentle rendezvous with Erhai Lake."

"This absolutely deserves a 5️⃣-star plus rating! I only stayed one night because I was in Dali for two days, but I'll definitely choose it again next time. The location is great, very close to the airport and high-speed rail station, about 20 minutes away. Facilities: Excellent! They have everything – a projector, bathtub, a balcony with a prime sea view, a hairdryer, etc. I was pleasantly surprised to find an iron too. The hairdryer is a Dyson, which was really good. Another even bigger surprise was that you don't need to bring clothes for travel photography; downstairs, they have Yi and Bai ethnic costumes, and long-sleeved dresses in various colors, even with trains, all perfect for photoshoots and all provided for free. Cleanliness: Very clean. The butler, restaurant staff, and cleaning aunties not only provide excellent service and have great attitudes but also work meticulously and keep everything spotless. Environment: The owner has nurtured many beautiful flowers and succulents for 6-7 years. There's a lovely small garden, swings, a swimming pool, a piano, a rooftop afternoon tea area, and even a sailboat⛵️. On the day we checked in, we planned to go sightseeing, but we ended up taking photos at the hotel until 7:30 PM! The owner is very accommodating and even provided airport transfer services."

"So glad we chose this hotel out of the many options in Dali! Although it was only for a short one-night stay, we had a great time and both my friend and I were very satisfied. Highly recommend! 👍🏻👍🏻 **Facilities:** The hotel's internal facilities are new and very well-equipped. The bathroom and toilet in the room are all Kohler brand. The room itself is also very spacious; my friend and I had two large suitcases and didn't feel cramped at all. The hairdryer was excellent, which is a huge plus for someone who travels frequently. I have long, thick hair, so I need a powerful hairdryer, and theirs totally delivered – it dried my hair in 10 minutes, when it usually takes me half an hour! What surprised me most was that the hotel's public areas, besides the gym and pool, also had a cigar lounge and a wine area 🍷. The facilities are truly impressive. **Cleanliness:** The cleanliness was impeccable! The bedding was spotless, and the bathroom was fresh and odor-free. You could tell they paid great attention to detail, making our stay very reassuring. **Environment:** The environment is quiet and stylish. I absolutely loved their courtyard; it's perfect for photos, especially for those who love taking pictures. The public area next to the front desk is also lovely and great for snapping some shots. I'll show you pictures later, but seriously, I can't recommend it enough! **Service:** The front desk staff were enthusiastic and efficient, and every hotel employee was professional. Since we stayed in Building A, and I'm terrible with directions, I was worried I wouldn't find the restaurant for breakfast the next morning. But as soon as we stepped out of the elevator, a staff member guided us to the restaurant. The service was very thoughtful. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay, and I'll definitely recommend it to friends."

"I've stayed at quite a few guesthouses in Dali, but choosing April·Return was a pleasant surprise. Located along the lakefront, the weather was perfect when I checked in, allowing me to witness an unforgettable sunset over Cangshan Mountain—no exaggeration, the view from the second-floor common area offered a breathtaking panorama of the nineteen peaks of Cangshan, every snapshot a masterpiece! As for the accommodation, as a designer guesthouse, both the common areas and guest rooms feature a lot of open space. The rooms include bathtubs with views of Cangshan and Erhai Lake, which instantly soothed my fatigue and helped me get a good night's sleep. The rooms also include local breakfast and afternoon tea, so you don't need to go out to find a trendy cafe; a good mood is guaranteed! It's a guesthouse I'd definitely stay at again. P.S.: I recommend staying two nights or more for a more complete experience!"

"My aunt and I stayed at the Indigo Dali, and it was an excellent experience. A special thanks to the staff, who went above and beyond to help us recover a lost piece of jewelry with sentimental value. Their proactive and meticulous service was truly touching. The hotel room offered stunning views directly overlooking Erhai Lake, and the soundproofing was so good that my elder aunt slept very soundly. The dining experience was also thoughtful and made my aunt feel very well cared for. This stay truly made us feel the hotel's warmth and professionalism. My aunt is now a loyal fan, and we will definitely choose to stay here again."

"Excellent! I highly recommend staying here. The owners are incredibly welcoming and the environment is beautiful. You can even see Cangshan Mountain from upstairs! It's very close to the South Gate and quiet at night, perfect for sleeping. There are balconies on both the first and second floors where you can relax and sunbathe. Plus, there's a swimming pool!"
