2-Star Hotels in Dali City

服務特別滿意，到了不僅幫忙拿行李，還熱情地介紹了周邊交通、遊玩路線，房間衞生做得非常到位，打掃得一塵不染，床品柔軟舒適，住這裏感受到了家的温暖。

The hotel is very convenient from public transpo especially if you have a small luggage. It is just about 8mins wall from the bus stop which goes directly to the train station. The same bus also goes directly to the 3 pagodas entrance. Additionally, it is just about 2 minutes walk from the ancient city. Lots of food options around especially at night. The owners also are very hospitable and kind. The small courtyard of the hotel is a breather. I ate my dinners there. The owners gladly let me use the microwave to heat my leftover food. The only thing which wasn’t ok during my stay was my neighboring room smoked in the terrace despite a no smoking policy of the hotel. Not the hotel/owner’s fault though. Would be happy to book again should I be back in Dali.

On my way back, I returned to Yuezhu Yishan. It's close to the ancient city, which is convenient after a long day of sightseeing. The bedding was just right – not too soft, not too firm – ensuring a good night's sleep. Every corner was spotless, and all the necessities were provided. The concierge was as attentive and thoughtful as ever, helping with our luggage. It felt just like coming home. I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit.

The room was fantastic! Everything from the natural light to the spaciousness was great. You can even see Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. It was incredibly affordable, even during peak season, which made it an excellent value. I highly recommend staying here. Don't bother with hotels inside the ancient city; they're noisy and crowded, making it hard to get a good night's sleep. This hotel is very quiet with excellent soundproofing. Plus, the owner is a veteran! He was incredibly enthusiastic, recommending delicious food and local tips. They even have electric scooters for rent right at the guesthouse, so you don't need to go anywhere else to get one, and the price was very reasonable. When we arrived, the owner even helped us with our luggage. He's such a warm person! We also got a free breakfast in the mornings. The owner even let us use an electric scooter for a day for free. We got his scooter really dirty and felt a bit guilty, even offering him some money for cleaning, but he wouldn't take it. Instead, he immediately called us to make sure we weren't hurt, saying the scooter wasn't important. That attention to detail was incredibly touching and made us feel even more apologetic. I strongly recommend this hotel, whether it's high season or low. And remember, you get what you pay for – if you want a good stay, be prepared to spend a little more. This place offers incredible value for money. Finally, I wish the owner great success in business, and peace and health for his family, regardless of the season. Thank you for your service these past few days; we were extremely satisfied.

We stayed for 4 days during the May Day holiday. It was great. The B&B is very new, with good facilities and a relatively quiet environment. The best thing is that it is close to Erhai Lake. It takes only 1 minute to get to the beach after leaving the B&B. You don't have to rush to watch the sunrise in the morning. The B&B owner was very considerate. When we arrived on the 1st, it was much later than expected. She was waiting for us and asked us if we had dinner. She sent us travel tips, introduced delicious shops around, and sent us a fruit plate. One day when it rained, she even lent us an umbrella. It was a very good stay experience. If I go to Dali again, I will consider staying again🧡ྀི💛ྀི❤️ྀི

A very warm ,Helpful home stay owner . Prior before my arrival in Dali. She already send me msg on guiding me on how to find the accommodation. She share detail in ***** Bus and Cab ( which area to alight to save hassle of finding the way ) . She also use her experience to tell you how to avoid Train station tourist scam from those hard selling tour agency . The room was very clean ,look comfortable and spacious. Basic Amenities was well provided by the owner. She will share travel guide for which area to start first etc. Helping to book attractions tickets with discount price. I am definitely going to miss this place and will stay back if I ever visit Dali again. Thanks for making me feel comfortable and enjoy my trip. Thumb up !!👍

We really enjoyed our stay at Lily Pad Hostel and would happily return. It offers excellent value for money and is a great base for exploring Dali. The hostel is in a good location, just a little outside the main town. It’s an easy walk, although you do need to cross some busy roads, which could be a little challenging if you’re travelling with small children. The room was clean, and the bed sheets were spotless. We also had a lovely view from the landing. There were some friendly resident bunnies wandering around, and we enjoyed having a ping pong table to use during our stay. The only minor downside was that the shower temperature was a little inconsistent, switching between hot and cold. Aside from that, we were very comfortable and really enjoyed our stay. We would thoroughly recommend Lily Pad Hostel to anyone visiting Dali and would definitely stay here again.

Location: Tucked away in an alley near the South Gate of Dali Ancient City, it's incredibly close and convenient for transportation. Room Facilities: The property is divided into a front house and a back courtyard. Both offer accommodation, with separate areas for men and women. The overall space is quite large, and there are spacious common areas with plenty of entertainment options like a billiards table and mahjong tables, perfect for chatting, sharing, and playing games together. They also offer meals, and you can join in for shared dining. Hygiene: Each room comes with a bathroom and toilet, and the cleaning staff tidies up daily.

It’s our first trip to Dali, and I’m so charmed by this city. As foreigners who don’t speak the local language, travelling around can be challenging. But we were lucky to have the most wonderful hosts at this hotel. They took such good care of us that I couldn’t help writing this review. The rooms are extremely clean and spacious. It’s nice and quiet, perfect for anyone who wants to stay away from noise. When we checked in, I asked if we could see a room. They immediately upgraded us to a much larger one. The room was incredibly spacious and lovely, with mountain views right from the window. They attended to even my smallest needs. The two ladies working here are incredibly kind. I felt right at home with them. They always greeted me with warm, beautiful smiles. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to everyone. My husband and I are really happy and satisfied with the service. Give it a stay!

The rooms weren't large but were clean, with modern amenities. It's located right on the main road of Dali Ancient City. I stayed on the ground floor, but the views from the rooms upstairs were quite beautiful. There are some peach trees in front of the house; if you go during the flowering season, you'll be amazed. Before going, I checked the map and thought it was on a main road, so I assumed a car would be able to pick me up right away. But upon arrival, I learned that cars are only allowed in at night; in the morning, cars are prohibited, only motorbikes and bicycles are allowed. So every time I needed to go somewhere, I had to walk to the main road, which was a bit inconvenient – ​​this is the biggest drawback you should consider. On the other hand, the owner was quite enthusiastic; I checked in at 1 AM and he waited until he fell asleep, making me think I was being locked out!
