The Jade Emu International Guesthouse

Great hostel in Dali

Reviewed By TaikooS

This is a great hostel to stay in. I stayed in a lovely private room with an en-suite bathroom. The bed was so comfy. Great shower. It cost about 11 euro a night (I always think in Euro) which is absolutely amazing value. I researched accommodation in Dali Old Town very thoroughly before I booked this hostel and it was one of the best and cheapest places to stay. The whole hostel is really tastefully decorated. Nice, airy common area to eat or chill in and a bottle of Dali beet is cheap there. It's located across the main road, just a short walk from the old town. My flight home got cancelled the day before so I had to stay another night but it was no hassle to book an extra night there. The hostel also organised a taxi to Dali airport for me. I would definitely recommend staying here. Also, 88 Bakery nearby is a really good place to eat.

The Lily Pad Inn

Peaceful!

Reviewed By NomadGargi

We travelled as family with a toddler and stayed for 3 nights. Room: With an oriental touch, we enjoyed our room which had a lovely view of the Cangshan. Waking up to the sunshine falling on the mountains was a real delight (King Room with Mountain View) Service: The staff was polite and answered to all our questions. While the staff at the reception kept changing, the lady manager was very helpful in giving travel tips to us around sightseeing. Housekeeping was done daily. Breakfast: Being a hostel/Inn we went ahead and booked breakfast for throughout our stay. Must say we weren't satisfied with what we were served as we had no option and had to eat congee and buns. one meal is ok but not all. On our day of check-out we were declined breakfast as the cook wasn't available which really put us off as we had hurried to be on time with a toddler and no food to eat. our only complaint was let us know a night before so we are better prepared. We expressed our grievance to the lady manager who did her best to undo the mistake with multiple tries and finally compensated us by arranging a Lunch with other residents and staff. That felt like a warm meal with the locals. we really enjoyed and appreciate the length to which the manager went to make up for the mistake. Location: Very convenient, located almost across the main road of the west gate of Dali Ancient Town. Plenty of restaurant and shopping options around. LilyPad is a quiet, peaceful inn, suitable for families travelling on a budget.

Reviewed By Kai W

Charming hostel. Located right in the Dali old town, with a wonderful view of the mountain landscape from the rooftop. Very helpful and kind hosts. Stay. P.S. Make sure you turn the heating up as soon as you arrive, it can be pretty cold in the room otherwise.

非常温馨的旅店

Reviewed By 358277472

我和朋友都很喜欢这个旅店。我们在火车上的时候跟老板说我们晚上到旅店,然后老板接着就给我们发了从火车站到旅店的交通路线,到大理古城的时候打个电话老板就出来接了, 旅店真的是饭店旅店合为一体,我们第一天晚上就吃了小炒;旅店还自带导游功能,我们向老板咨询了大理好玩的地方,还有价格、路程等。觉得很划算。 住宿方面也可以,我很挺喜欢旅店的环境的。这是我们的经历,希望对大家的旅行有帮助

Hidden Garden Dali

Dali Hidden Garden is a small scale guesthouse, run by a Chinese/Dutch couple, Bai Mei and Stefan. We are located just outside Dali Old town (5 min walk), on the foothills of the Cangshan mountain range. Because of the higher elevation our roof terrace provides a magnificent view over Er Hai Lake and the Old Town, as well as the impressive mountains. Our Children's Playing Area offers trampoline, sandpit, climbing wall, drawing walls, books games and puzzles.

Perfect Local Place

Reviewed By Turtlegrace

We were only here for one night but it was a great night. May was more than welcoming and helpful. She sent us in the directions we wanted to go. Rooms were comfortable. some local noises like a rooster in the morning but it made the stay feel like we were really in real Dali. The breakfast was delicious with May's homemade bread and yogurt. One of the best breakfasts I have had! When we came back through Dali for a day May offered us her help while we were passing through. A great China experience!
