Mingyue Songjian Hotel: A Minimalist, Design-Focused Homestay by Erhai Lake

Located in the heart of Dali's Shuanglang Ancient Town, Mingyue Songjian°·Haijie Hotel offers stunning views of the Cangshan Mountains from its windows, as well as the shimmering waters of Erhai Lake. It is just a short walk from the south entrance of the ancient town and the pier, allowing you to enjoy both the local fishing village atmosphere and a sense of secluded tranquility. As night falls, gentle music drifts from the nearby bar street, adding a touch of vibrancy to the peaceful night. Inspired by the concept of "scooping water to admire the moon," the hotel cleverly blends the essence of traditional Bai architecture with modern minimalist aesthetics. The main color palette of gray, white, and green is paired with dark walnut furniture to create a cool and sophisticated ambiance. The Bai wooden roof, frosted brick walls, and art exhibition hall complement each other, interpreting the unique language of "Oriental Zen meets Nordic industrial style." The designer has brought natural light into every space, with domed staircases, sloping walkways, and a central water courtyard intertwined to create a poetic and picturesque experience, as if walking through a "bright moon rising from the sea." The bean-green walls and pure white bedding are fresh and elegant, while the dark walnut furniture and Bai wooden ceiling create a tranquil atmosphere that blends tradition and modernity. Some room types also feature a fireplace and a full sea-view bathtub for added romance. Embark on a culinary journey from sunrise to starlight. Morning Breakfast: Sit by the window with Erhai Lake as your companion, and enjoy Yunnan rice noodles, freshly baked bread, and rose jam yogurt, while occasionally spotting Siberian gulls flying past the window.
