__WeChat244685****A very comfortable guesthouse.
The owners were very welcoming; the owner was lovely, had a story to tell, and was very talkative. The whole family was very friendly and helpful, even helping with our luggage – thank you so much!! Actually, I wasn't really into the food in Dali this time, and was a little disappointed, but the owner recommended some nearby ”non-trendy” restaurants: Blueberry Fish and Ganggang Rice Noodles. They were within walking distance, delicious, and in a great location – right next to the March Street Market, and there's also a Lotus Root Shop nearby, which is great for browsing. It's also very convenient to walk to the Old Town.
And!! Peach the dog is so cute! A chubby little dog, so adorable and easy to pet. He even got up later than us this morning, haha!
Hope to see him again sometime!

GGuest UserThe rooms are clean and have private bathrooms. There's a beautiful terrace on the third floor, and plenty of common areas. The manager and volunteers are all super nice. The communal meals are delicious, and the hostel's location is great, making it convenient to go anywhere. The volunteers also organize outings together, which made for a really happy time. I'll definitely be back next time!

GGuest UserI was a little scared when I first got on the bus into the village, but after entering it exceeded my expectations! Being able to stay in a hotel with such facilities at this price next to the airport is really cost-effective.
It is a restaurant and accommodation integrated into one. Meals can be packed and sent upstairs to eat. I ordered sweet and sour pork ribs and stir-fried vegetables, which were delicious.
The rooms are newly decorated, better than hotels in the city. TV, WiFi, air conditioning, bathroom all worked cleanly and in good condition. The shower is a piano-key four-speed shower, so comfortable! There was a little problem with the WiFi in the middle. They came to fix it right away after I called. It was much more efficient than other hotels 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
It's super close to the airport, about ten minutes drive, and you can take me to the airport at around five in the morning, thank you 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Dali Airport Hotel (Dali Fengyi Airport Branch)
Hotel near Dali Airport/Dali Sea World, Dali City

GGuest UserExcellent stay, even extended it! It's super close to Xinmin Canteen, which is ranked number one in Dali Ancient City and also home to Yinmi, the best Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles. If you're taking a taxi, set your destination to 'Bread Party (Yuer Road store)' for an even closer walk. You'll pass Xinmin Canteen on the way. Their red bean and sauerkraut rice is absolutely amazing – if you're tired of all the rice noodles, definitely go for their rice dishes. And the owner's cat is super cute too!

AAnonymous UserFrom check-in to check-out, every staff member was smiling and incredibly helpful. The room was spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. The front desk lady was particularly thoughtful, assisting us with planning our travel route, which really made us feel the warmth of Dali. This trip was made even more perfect thanks to this guesthouse. Oh, and the hotel parking is very convenient, highly recommended for self-driving tours!

Gghl.A comfortable stay, with helpful staff.
Lots of young people who were generally friendly and helpful. I think there's a good community here.
The smoke from the nightly campfire was unpleasant as our room faced the front yard. Thankfully we managed to close the windows.
The hostel is set in a village just outside the old city - about 10 minutes walk, I think. Very conveniently located near the #8 bus route to the train station.

8.9/10
AAnonymous UserThere are tons of food stalls nearby, and a whole street outside is lined with car rental shops. The first one on the left after exiting is the cheapest, with no mandatory insurance fees.
Earning money isn't easy, so I just wanted to travel on a budget. This place was the cheapest online, so the value is pretty good.
Facilities: Hot water 👌 No air conditioning, but I guess it's not really necessary.
Cleanliness: Clean, because there aren't many people staying here, and they're all very clean.
Environment: Cozy and comfortable.
Service: Good service; they even helped with my luggage.
The bedding was clean, and the comforter felt very sturdy.

8.8/10
GGuest UserFacilities: They provide disposable toothbrushes, toothpaste, hair dryers, and slippers.
Hygiene: Very clean.
Environment: There are many 'qingju' e-bikes nearby, and it's a short ride to the ancient city. It's close to Sanyue Street, where you can shop and find lots of snacks and fruits. There's a pub downstairs, but the sound insulation is good, so it's not noisy at night.
Service: The owner let me check in early and upgraded me from a 6-bed dorm to a 4-bed dorm. I was worried about not having bed curtains or private space, but the 4-bed dorm also has bed curtains. They provide disposable bedding (sheets, duvet cover, pillowcase) which you put on yourself, so you don't have to worry about cleanliness. The owner also kindly offered me fruit, haha! My luggage was a bit heavy, and the owner helped me carry it upstairs. When I left, they even helped me carry it downstairs and load it into the car. Many thanks to the owners! I had a great time in Dali; the scenery is beautiful, and the people are warm and welcoming.

JJasminiagGood location. Room is basic. Bed is very hard and air-conditioner sounded like it was going to fall off the wall 😅 This is a no frills room. The staff are very nice and checkin was super easy. I think the room price should be cheaper due to not providing towels or housekeeping. OK room for a quick night.
