Hostels in Yunnan, China

I stayed in a 4-bed room for 2 nights. This hostel is very nice and clean, the bed have fairly news with all the basic things you need, light, outlets, ******* and you have lockers as well. Shower and bathroom were well kept as well. The location is not super central but I like it this way, less noise and with a scooter it took me no time to go in the heart of the town. They have nice common area and they provide free drinkable water. They have one laundry and one dryer which sometimes can be a bit inconvenient but not a big deal either.

I recently spent two nights at this accommodation, and while there were not many foreigners around, I still found it to be a decent experience. Upon arrival, I received a coupon, which was a nice touch, but I found that the minimum spending requirement made it less useful for solo travelers like myself. I had requested a bottom bunk but ended up with a top one, and I found the bed to be quite hard. However, the provided curtains added a nice level of privacy. On the plus side, they offer lockers, towels, and slippers, which is convenient. The bathroom, however, could use a bit more attention as it needed cleaning, and I noticed that the shower had a leak. Overall, considering the price, I can't really complain too much. The staff at the front desk were friendly and spoke English, which made communication easy. Just a heads-up: there are two flights of stairs, and you'll need to walk through the restaurant/bar area to access the lift to the rooms. All in all, it’s a budget-friendly option that meets basic needs!

Facilities: The facilities are complete. You can eat, drink and have fun in the yard without having to go out. The restaurant is amazing! ! ! As soon as the dishes were served, people started to eat them with relish. No wonder it is called Taotietang. Not inferior to any restaurant outside. Hygiene: Disposable bedding! ! ! There is a cleaning lady every day, it is very clean and comfortable. Environment: The yard is huge. You can watch the sunrise and sunset and enjoy life in the youth hostel. The bed is super comfortable and it is very private. Service: The staff are very enthusiastic and will recommend fun places in Dali. You can listen to music and have a drink in the courtyard at night. Many activities will also be organized to maximize the experience. I really don't want to leave. Can you offer an annual pass package? ! !

Stayed 2 nights. Pleasant hosts. Easy to communicate with. Check-in was quick and convenient. Comfortable big bed. Boss arranged a tour to Yuanyang terraces. Awesome experience. He knows all the right places to stops. Amazing place, beautiful and picturesque. I won't hesitated in booking and go along with him. Thank you very much. Boss

Absolutely fantastic! I'll definitely be staying here again on any future trips to Kunming or Dali. The rooms are incredibly well-appointed and come fully equipped with everything you could need. The other communal facilities are also extensive, and they even provide a thoughtful amenity kit. The dedicated hosts were all exceptional. The public common areas are huge, offering plenty of entertainment options. I especially loved the terrace – it's a wonderfully comfortable place to just relax and unwind. You could easily spend an entire day here without feeling the need to go out. The housekeeping staff were also very friendly. Looking forward to my next visit!

The amenities of the room and the service were one of the best during my travels in China. Huge windows, a bathtub and an incredible shower made me thoroughly enjoy my room. One thing that bothered me is the cigarette smoke that enters the room through the windows from the area right outside the hostel. Smoking is very common in China, but my experience would have been even better if I didn't wake up to the smell of cigarette smoke. Breakfast is okay and I skipped the communal dinners as the vegetarian options were limited. Despite the above, I'd stay in Liliwanxiang again the next time if I'm in Dali again.

Shangri-La Youth Hostel: An Absolutely Fantastic Experience! This hostel truly understands what travelers need! The location is unbeatable – it’s just a short walk to Dukezong Ancient City, and it feels incredibly safe returning after exploring the night views. The rooms are spotlessly clean and well-ventilated, with bedding that smells wonderfully fresh, as if sun-dried. The common areas are both cozy and impeccably tidy, and from outside, you can even catch glimpses of distant snow-capped mountains. The host is exceptionally welcoming and helpful; they not only went the extra mile to draw us a personalized hand-drawn guide but also offer electric bike rentals, perfect for exploring. It was heartwarming to see fellow travelers from all corners of the globe gather, chat, and share their stories over warm yak butter tea. This truly is the most authentic and heartwarming way to experience Shangri-La. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again on my next trip!

Met interesting travellers in this hostel. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Location is very accessible walk to Dali Old Ancient town, do note that food options during peak meal hours can be limited as it can get really crowded and busy. This place is an excellent option for a quiet and restful stopover from the hustle and bustle of Dali streets.

I liked the hostel that i extended my stay. Even though its away from the old town. There's a bus stop on the main street and I would take a didi back when it's past 18:30. Some of the staff speak english so that was really helpful, the room was clean, they even upgraded me to a 2-room dorm which helped me relax from the trip. The WC area is spacious, it's great to have the water spray next to the toilet and heated seats are a plus. I found the laundry area with shoe cleaning machines very useful. They also have a restaurant/bar on-site in the lounge area and I really liked the food there, had three meals and it was delicious. Would definitely stay here again.

Cool place although it was pretty empty when I was there , room was clean. No soap or toilet paper in the bathroom Shower was nice and hot The host helped me plan my stay in lijiang Nice place. Although a little far from the old city 30 min walk
