Dali City Hostels

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!

The room was very clean and well-equipped, and the bed linen and duvet covers all smelled lovely. The location is very convenient for getting around; the hotel offers electric scooter rentals, and there are car rental agencies and bus stops just a few hundred meters away. It's also very close to Yincang Road and Pingdeng Road, which have many interesting small shops. If you're looking for morning coffee, evening drinks, or independent bookstores, they're all within walking distance. The hotel has spacious common areas; the lobby on the first floor has a great atmosphere for socializing, while the second floor is perfect for studying (and there are cute cats to pet!).

The large dog at the front desk was adorable, and the landlady was very friendly, sharing a map of authentic local restaurants. I stayed in a double room, which was a bit small. I hope they can replace the curtains/bed curtains with blackout ones. The location is quite convenient; Didi (ride-hailing service) can get you to the door. There's a communal area on the balcony for drying clothes.

This hostel is incredibly comfortable! The rooms are clean and quiet, with excellent privacy, making for a truly peaceful stay. The biggest surprise was the free washing machines, thoughtfully separated for men and women, which is incredibly convenient and friendly for female travelers! I also met some super interesting women here, and we hit it off immediately, which really warmed up my trip. It's fantastic value for money, I highly recommend it!

The staff are friendly and the location isn't far from Dali Ancient City. It's a wonderful place where guests can all gather together to eat and chat. If you're traveling alone or enjoy socializing and conversing with people, this hotel is perfect. In the evenings, there's true communication over a bonfire and beer. Everyone seems happy and full of energy. Thanks to them, I'm leaving with a lot of good vibes. I had planned to stay for two nights, but I finished sightseeing faster than expected and unfortunately changed accommodations to see the eastern side of Erhai Lake. If I come to Dali again, I definitely want to stay here once more.

There 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.

Facilities: 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.

Out of all the cities we visited in Yunnan, this one was our family's favorite. The room was spacious and clean, and you could really tell the owner pays attention to the details. Everything, even the toiletries, was high quality, showing just how much care they put into running this hotel.

Really nice hostel to stay It is right in the middle of a market so you can easily get you breakfast and enjoy either in the hostel or outside. We got a private room and is was really spacious and quite The people there are really welcoming and you can use a washing machine for free
