Hotels in Dali City with sea view​

"We will be back! This felt like a home away from home, except it had such a wonderful view of the lake. The host was super friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, close to the railway station, which was very handy for us as we came over from Kunming and then went back. You're close to many of the central places and with DiDi taxi, it's super easy to get around from here. We will for sure book here again; we're already planning a visit back."

"This guesthouse is perfect for photos and also great for a relaxing getaway. The biggest highlight is the amazing sea view from the room; the floor-to-ceiling windows face Erhai Lake directly, so you can see the Cangshan mountains and the clouds from your bed. The balcony loungers are also perfect for just chilling out. The room is well-equipped, the bedding is comfortable, and the soundproofing is good, ensuring a quiet and restful environment. The breakfast, especially the rice noodles and soy milk, was delicious! 😋 My child loved it so much and wanted to stay another day, but our plans changed, so we'll have to come back next time."

"Our 'butler service' means you get a dedicated butler providing one-on-one service from the moment you check in. They'll contact you in advance to confirm your arrival time, arrange shuttle pick-up, and send friendly reminders about breakfast times and other important notes via group chat. Facilities: The hairdryer's airflow is really weak, not even as strong as the wind off Erhai Lake! The bedside lamp isn't working, but everything else is okay. Cleanliness: Clean, tidy, and no strange smells – pretty good. Environment: The space is large and bright. My only complaint is the view from the window isn't great. Service: The service is excellent; anything we needed was delivered to the room very quickly, and the breakfast tasted good. Honestly, the view from the guest room window is quite disappointing."

"The hotel boasts a prime location, close to the ecological corridor, with numerous restaurants nearby, complete facilities, friendly front desk staff, and a clean and hygienic environment. It's definitely worth a visit, and you can even enjoy the sunrise from your room while sightseeing around Erhai Lake."

"Stayed for 3 night and I have to say this is one of the best homestay I stayed in China. Room was very clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and nice! Got a free upgrade as well. Homestay is walking distance ti the south gate of Dali Ancient city.Breakfast, tea time and even welcome fruits platter. The mi xian(noodle) is seriously good and light. The two cuties Shiyi & Huanxi is just so cute. I would definitely come back here again whenever I dropped by Dali."

"這次入住體驗感直接拉滿！首先要誇爆這裏的公區，一進門就被庭院裏的水池吸引，水超清，裏面養了好幾條胖嘟嘟的錦鯉，看着它們游來游去，煩躁的心情瞬間就平靜了。我們剛到大門口，民宿管家就眼疾手快地沖出來幫忙提行李，一路送到房間，全程笑容滿面，真的太加分了！房間更是沒話説，床品軟硬適中，一沾枕頭就睡得很沉，睡眠質量直線飆升。全屋智能控制簡直是我這種懶人的福音，動動嘴就能開關燈和窗簾，科技感與舒適感並存，這次選對地方了！"

"We had a bit of a disappointing experience at the Jiatu Scenic Hotel. The room listing states ‘lake view’ so we booked that room, however, it turns out that this room does not face the lake and has an internal car par window instead. The listing photos conveniently have the net curtains of the windows drawn so you can’t see this from the inside photos. The receptionist insisted the Trip.com listing was accurate because the hotel was near the lake and therefore a ‘lake view’. They would not change us to a room with the lake view that we believed we booked, despite having multiple lake-view rooms available and us checking in at 10.30pm. They insisted the only way we could change the room was to cancel our booking (and incur a 50% cancellation fee) and rebook the more expensive ‘sea-view’ room instead. We contacted Trip.com who spoke to the hotel also but they were unwilling to help or move us, despite the room not matching the listing description. Trip themselves were very helpful and offered us some compensation. In the end we stayed in the room we’d booked with no lake view. The room itself was lovely and spacious, had storage options and was clean and tidy. If we’d booked knowing this didn’t have a lake view then it would have been perfect! The location is near the station which is great if you’re there for one night, however we were there for 2 nights and had to travel 40 minutes to get to Dali Old Town or the 28 bends ecological corridor, so personally if I were to come to Dali again I would choose a hotel in that location instead. It is worth noting that the hotel is across the road from the lake, so you can see cars and the road even in the lakeside view rooms."

"We and the children arrived at the Hotel at night, and the hotel welcomed us warmly and the service was very good. We booked a family room and there was a bathtub, so the children loved it very much. The room view also looked at a beautiful lake and mountains. The hotel price was quite cheap for us. The room was clean and spacious. We felt satisfied to stay here. The service was very good. Thank you for making us feel happy to stay here."
