Dali Erhai Heart | Designer Villa · Full Seaview Music Vacation Art Homestay
"The B&B was fantastic! The host and front desk staff were incredibly attentive. You can see Erhai Lake from both the rooftop and the side balcony, and it's absolutely stunning in the evening. The courtyard is also very comfortable. We'd love to come back if we get the chance!"
Wutong Courtyard · Villa: Bai Ethnic Aesthetics | Panoramic Cangshan View Guesthouse
"Five stars, highly recommend this Dali Countryside Courtyard B&B! The location is perfectly balanced – it's only about 2 kilometers to both Erhai Lake and Dali Ancient City. You can cycle to and from both attractions in just a few minutes, making it an ideal spot that's peaceful yet conveniently close to everything. It boasts an elegant private courtyard filled with lush, green countryside views. The rooms have a fresh, rustic style, clean and spacious. Waking up to birdsong in the morning and enjoying tea in the courtyard while gazing at the fields is incredibly therapeutic. The owner provides thoughtful and attentive service. Staying here for a Dali vacation was so comfortable; I'll definitely choose this place again next time!"
Yuanlu · Shanqin | EXCLUSIVE Hidden Sky Garden Hotel (Dali Ancient City Renmin Road Branch)
"We were on a girls' trip and booked a twin room. It was really spacious with two 1.5-meter beds, very comfortable!

"My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The moment we arrived there is a buggy to get us to the hotel which is at the top with amazing views. We are greeted warmly by truly helpful housekeepers and staff. They help arrange reservations, booking photoshoot and help whatever they can. Truly amazing experience and our room is spacious with its own huge pool overlooking Erhai Lake. Most recommended"
HEO Hezhu · Luxury Residence (Dali Ancient Town South Gate Branch)
"Tired of the monotonous daily grind, I decided to take a break and clear my head. Dali during the off-season is quite pleasant; it’s lovely to just walk around and explore. Alternatively, picking a nice, comfortable hotel to unwind and breathe is also a great option... (After much deliberation, I finally booked this one.) As soon as you open the door, you can see the Cangshan Mountains, flowing clouds, and the ancient town. Walk a short distance downstairs and you’re at Dali Ancient Town. It’s a perfect location, quiet yet convenient, making it easy to get anywhere. The room features tasteful soft furnishings and furniture. The common areas are also very well-designed, blending contemporary art and modern minimalism with Bai ethnic elements. Every corner offers a beautiful view, creating a wonderful ambiance... I particularly love the swimming pool on the second floor and the rooftop terrace. They're perfect for relaxing or enjoying afternoon tea. It’s good to allow yourself to 'waste' time on beautiful things."
Pullman Dali
"Super good service , I got the sea view room , super nice and chill for the entire stay . Room is very big and good service. best hotel in Dali"
Dali Hexi Shanshe Qinglan
"This hotel is super close to the ancient city, you can just walk there. Plus, it's right next to the scenic area shuttle bus and the long-distance bus station, so transportation is incredibly convenient. There's a snack street nearby with tons of restaurants and BBQ stalls to choose from. The hotel environment and service are both excellent. They even have a kids' pool on the first floor, which is perfect for families traveling with children. The best part is the price is really affordable. The staff also helped us book the most practical tour groups based on our travel needs, which saved us a lot of money. Highly recommend staying here!"
