Find Top Hostels in Dali City

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!

I 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 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

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.

This hostel is really fun! You can cook and share meals with other guests, and the volunteer staff are super interesting. There's a dedicated game room for playing Werewolf, mahjong, and they even have a projector. Sometimes at night, people play music, so you can sing along and chat.

The rooms are clean but basic, as reflected in the price. I feel like for what I paid, I got a very decent stay. The hostel is close to the ancient town and not too far away from Erhai Lake. The rooms had an ensuite bathroom with soap and toilet paper provided. Fresh sheets were given to me when I arrived and every bed had a power outlet. The room also had a keycard for safety. The paint is chipping on the walls in some places and the beds don’t have privacy curtains but this didn’t really affect my stay

I think we got upgraded to a family room but we definitely didn't mind the extra space including a couch and table. They had a waterboiler and cups and comfortable beds with extra blankets, however the remote for the AC was missing and it got pretty chilly at night. Did not make that big of a difference anyway since the AC was located outside the bedroom. Small notice for foreign guests: It was very hard finding the place since the map didn't show the exact location and doorsigns we in chinese/ didn't match the description on trip.

I was pretty satisfied with this stay. The owner clearly puts a lot of effort into running this hotel. The environment is also great, with a small courtyard in the back. The items inside the room are of high quality, and it's very clean. The front desk staff also recommended many tourist attractions to us.

This hostel isn't far from March Street, and it's surrounded by a small forest. You can also walk to the ancient city, which is very convenient. The female and male floors are separate, with individual restrooms and showers, so you don't have to worry about sharing. There are many activities, and the price is very affordable. It's a great place for those who enjoy meeting new people.

This was my first time staying in a youth hostel, and the room was quite nice. The window offered a view of Cangshan Mountain. Both the owner and the other guests were very warm and friendly, even inviting me to join them for a BBQ and beer. However, I wouldn't recommend it for those who prefer a quiet atmosphere over a lively one.

The environment is good and the location is easy to find. It is close to the ancient city. There is also a washing machine and a place to dry clothes. It is more suitable for long-term stay
