Hotel Romantik di Dali

A very cosy hotel with a beautiful garden inside. The staff is ready to answer any question, we stayed only for one night, but the accommodation was as comfortable as possible! There is an option not early breakfast, it is very convenient, as we like to sleep😁 Besides, there are a lot of cats and dogs in the hotel, it's extremely cute🥹

This was the perfect start to our first trip to China — the hotel was right beside erhai lake and the views from the hotel cafe and the rooms were fantastic. The rooms were very clean and facilities modern and good (particularly the hotel cafe which serves coffee (each guest can redeem 1x coffee and unlimited cornetto ice creams and snacks from the cafe). It is also a ~6 minute walk away from a family-run bicycle shop where tourists can rent a bike from (20 元 for a full day) (there are rent-as-you-go bikes along the area too but they require a Chinese ID card in order for you to book). The service was also excellent and all the staff were very attentive. Each time we returned to the hotel, the staff would greet us with an option to get a bowl of rice noodles (mi xian 米线） or chinese dessert, depending on what time we arrived. There were also free flow fruits (some small apple-like fruit and cherry tomatoes) in the hotel lobby that was stocked through the day. Fantastic stay. We will definitely return if we come back to the area. (We had entered another hotel further down the same stretch for a coffee and that other hotel’s coffee and cleanliness paled in comparison; made us very thankful that we had booked this hotel instead). 10/10!

Segala kemudahan yang diperlukan disediakan. Pemilik penginapan sangat baik dan suka menolong. Dia sentiasa memeriksa kami untuk memastikan bahawa kami mempunyai semua yang kami perlukan. Rumah penginapan ini terletak hanya kira-kira 7 minit berjalan kaki ke bandar purba Dali dan tempat makan Muslim yang sempurna. Walaupun dia tidak boleh berbahasa Inggeris, dia menggunakan Wechat untuk berkomunikasi dengan kami. Dia juga menaik taraf bilik kecil kami di tingkat atas kepada yang besar di tingkat bawah kerana bagasi kami yang besar. Dia menyediakan buah-buahan dan kopi untuk sarapan pagi kami dan membungkus untuk kami semasa mendaftar keluar. Dia juga menempah Didi untuk menjemput kami dan menghantar kami ke stesen kereta api Dali. Terima kasih, Makcik atas layanan yang mengagumkan di Dali, sehingga kita bertemu lagi ♥️

We stayed at Lishe seaview resort hotel for 2 nights. The hotel upgraded us to a two-room apartment which I did not expect! The apartment had spectacular view of Erhai in the living room and master bedroom. I had the foresight of having one free and easy day and we pretty much stayed in most of the time to soak in the view. The staff service was amazing. The team reached out to me via trip.com the day before we check in (fantastic initiative) as overseas visitors like me are not familiar with the WeChat usage. When we arrive, the staff were on standby to receive us and bring us to the apartment as we got there via our own driver. The hotel sent nightly desert (white fungus) to our apartment. One important aspect of the hotel is the delicious and wide spread of breakfast. The breaky was on the highest floor offering great views of Erhai, and the lady attendant there was polite, cheerful and has great service. When we checked, the hotel staff came to the apartment and send us to the car. They also presented a farewell bag of goodies - including rose Chinese cakes (which were super delicious!), tea and sweets. It was an awfully thoughtful gesture. I had the rose Chinese cake during breaky and loved them. So I was super happy to find them in the farewell gift. I would strongly recommend a stay here if you are in Dali. Fellow Singaporeans- you would love this place! I think even if I did not get the upgrade, I would have loved the view too. Just keep one day of doing nothing and enjoy the beautiful view and the hotel hospitality. The hotel staff were service oriented, always smiling, polite and helpful. I mean every staff we encountered, even the cleaning staff! This hotel was a great highlight of our Dali stay. I would definitely come back to stay at Lishe when next back to Dali.

Really pretty hotel overall with very cute cats as a bonus. Staff were all really really nice, saying hi and smiling every time we walked through the main lobby. We arrived at the hotel way before check-in time and instead of having us wait, they offered us a free upgrade as the room we originally booked was not ready. There were no obligations for them to do that since we were the ones who arrived early so that was very nice. They would also take our breakfast order the evening before and prepare our breakfast accordingly, with an option of having it in our rooms or downstairs. There would also be dessert sent to our room each night as long as we were in the room. Staff were so nice they sent us all the way to our cars the morning we checked out. The room was also very very spacious with a nice view of the ancient town. You could also see stars at night. Laundry and all other basic amenities were also readily available. Would highly recommend this place to other travellers for the location, service, amenities.

We had the pleasure of staying at Erhai Xinglai Lakeview Inn in picturesque Dali, and our experience was nothing short of magical. From the moment we booked, the staff demonstrated exceptional hospitality, calling us to arrange for complimentary pickup from the airport. Important tip: Dali's cobblestone streets can be challenging for luggage, so be sure to call the hotel in advance to arrange for their free pickup service. Upon arrival, we were treated to a delightful tea break, complete with fresh fruits and fragrant rose tea. Witnessing the chef meticulously prepare the fruit platter for 30 minutes was a testament to the hotel's attention to detail and commitment to excellence. It's clear that every aspect of our stay was crafted with love. The hotel offers thoughtful amenities, including: - Photography package for capturing memories - Nighttime milk service, delivering warm milk to your doorstep before bed - Cozy library with an impressive selection of adult fiction, non-fiction, and children's books Near the hotel, there are live singing performances in the evenings, featuring talented vocalists performing ********* and Chinese classics (we enjoyed listening from the comfort of our room!) The staff's warm hospitality, combined with the hotel's charming ambiance and thoughtful touches, made our stay in Dali truly unforgettable. We highly recommend Erhai Xinglai to anyone seeking a tranquil retreat in this beautiful town.

We absolutely loved our stay at Shanyuyishe Boutique B&B in Dali Ancient City. The location was perfect for us — tucked away in a peaceful corner near Dali Ancient City, yet only a short walk to the shops, cafés, and attractions. What truly made the stay special was the hospitality. The owner was incredibly warm and welcoming, helping us with our luggage, preparing breakfast every morning, and always making sure we were comfortable. The breakfast was simple but delicious, especially the rice noodles, which we looked forward to each morning. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. We especially loved the beautiful courtyard and the overall peaceful atmosphere. A couple of things to note for families and travellers with larger luggage. The beautiful courtyard has a koi pond running through parts of it, which adds to the charm, but I was constantly keeping an eye on my kids as I was worried they might accidentally fall in. Thankfully, nothing happened, but it’s something parents with young children may want to be aware of. Another consideration is luggage. Vehicles can stop near the property, but you’ll still need to carry your luggage across parts of the courtyard. If you’re staying on Levels 2 or 3, there is no lift, so luggage has to be carried up manually. The owner was kind enough to help us, but it’s still worth considering if you’re travelling with multiple large suitcases. For our family room, one small downside was that although the room was very spacious, there was only one air-conditioner serving the entire unit. The smaller bedroom felt a little stuffy and warm at night. That said, the owner was very responsive and quickly provided us with a fan the next day, which made a huge difference and solved the issue for us. Overall, the warmth of the host, comfortable rooms, delicious breakfast, and peaceful setting far outweighed these minor inconveniences. We’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cosy and authentic stay in Dali. ❤️🏔️✨

The moment I opened the door, I was instantly wowed. The view of Erhai Lake from the room is absolutely spectacular — photos can only capture about 70% of its beauty. In person, it's a hundred times more stunning. . The room is extremely comfortable, with a well-designed bathroom layout featuring separate areas for the toilet, shower, and vanity, plus a beautiful soaking tub. Every amenity in the room is perfect and of very high quality — especially the toilet, which comes with both a bidet spray and a fully automatic function. . The bed is incredibly soft. After a full day of sightseeing on foot, I slept like a log — and a relaxing warm soak beforehand made it even better. . Upon arrival, afternoon tea and snacks were served, which was such a lovely way to unwind after the journey. The staff were extremely attentive and helpful in every way. . Breakfast includes noodle soup and congee, along with fruit, hot dogs, and yogurt. . The hotel also offers airport and train station transfers, which is very convenient. . The location is not far from attractions such as Santorini and other nearby sights. . For getting around Erhai Lake, renting a car to explore at your own pace is the most efficient option. If you don't have a rental, you can use Didi (ride-hailing) or take the sightseeing bus — though with the bus, you can only board and alight at designated stops. . One more tip: Didi is available around Erhai Lake until quite late at night and can drop you right at the hotel, so don't worry if you want to stay out a little longer before heading back. ---

坐落在洱海旁雙廊古鎮的美麗酒店，地理位置讓我驚喜，酒店坐落玉幾島🥰躺在露台的躺椅上即可享受洱海的波光粼粼，近在咫尺的寧靜。老闆非常熱心熱情，酒店中也處處是精心設計的花園小景，還有可以拍照的天台！美麗景色，七彩雲南！感謝管家的熱心服務！這是我第一次在攜程評價，真心覺得這家酒店不錯！大理古城逛完感受平平，這家酒店留下深刻印象

I booked a two-night stay here and had high expectations for my vacation. However, the first thing that happened was an extremely uncomfortable check-in. Two female staff members were incredibly unfriendly; the hotel had no elevator, and there was no luggage porter. One staff member even insisted we carry our large luggage ourselves because the hotel didn't have an elevator. The free hot pot meal was only for the broth; the side dishes had to be ordered separately. We booked four rooms, but when my friend couldn't eat the spicy broth and asked for a different broth, we were charged extra. The hallway lights are turned off after 10:30 PM, so if you're returning late, you'll have to use your phone's flashlight to find your way. The photography service was also unsatisfactory. We had four rooms, but only two were photographed. I requested that the photographer let me go first and the other person take photos later after changing clothes, but the photographer was unhappy and insisted on taking photos at the same time. The photographer, in particular, did not have a friendly or open attitude, nor the manner of a professional service provider. Breakfast was delicious and suited our taste, but the staff were somewhat negligent in their service. We ordered our main course first but were served later, or they forgot to include the side dishes. On check-out day, the hotel scored points with the extremely enthusiastic assistance from a young man in a blue jacket (29/4). The staff member in the blue jacket was very professional, coordinating everything and seemingly understanding that I wasn't entirely satisfied with the hotel. He coordinated everything, from carrying our luggage from the room to the lobby to taking it to the taxi, working with the photographer, and even offering us complimentary tea as an apology and thank you for our stay. Overall, aside from the issues that affected our mood on the first day, the hotel was quite comfortable and clean, worthy of a vacation (although a bit far from the city center). If the hotel can address these shortcomings, I think this will be a wonderful experience for us. Best regards.
