Hotels With Bar in Yunnan, China

Songzhuju is one of the nicest homestay I've stayed in. 1. Butler Ah Fei and all staff are very welcoming and friendly. Ah Fei contacted me in advance to arrange pick up and itinerary. He's also the go-to guy for purchase of authentic tea and local produce. 2. Superior location The homestay is situated about 100m from north gate. Considered easy to find but I would still recommend the pick up service as the town is such a maze. It takes around 30mins by car from Lijiang Railway to the ancient town. Restaurants, cafes and shops are everywhere. 3. Spacious and cosy room Room was clean, full amenities like bathrobe, slippers, kettle, shampoo, conditioner etc all provided There are endless options of homestays to choose from but Songzhuju stands out for being so homely and such kind of personal service is really rare. After 3 days of stay, i cannot pinpoint a single negative aspect at all. Would return for sure and highly recommend to all travellers! . Bed and pillows quite comfortable. Breakfast provided from 8am. Laundry room available.

My stay at Lisiman was the perfect conclusion to my Yunnan adventure across Dali, Lijiang, and Shangri-la. While each accommodation on my journey served a different purpose, I chose Lisiman specifically because I desired tranquility and a close connection to nature. Location and Atmosphere: Location-wise, LISIMAN ranked incredibly high for me. It sits right within the Napa Hai (Yila Grassland) while remaining close to town, and I highly appreciated their complimentary shuttle service. The view from dawn to dusk offered shifting, beautiful vibes. In the distance, I could watch cows and horses grazing on surrounding farms, while within the hotel compound itself, I loved watching the free-roaming animals, including black swans, ducks, Alaskan dogs, deer, sheep, and a donkey. Exceptional Service and Staff Recognition: I am deeply grateful for the warm reception and care I received. The staff showed incredible initiative and responded expediently to all my queries to ensure I felt comfortable experiencing Shangri-la ”the Lisiman way.” I was highly impressed by the collective teamwork, sincerity, and professionalism of the store manager and specific team members: 麦克, Alan, 小罗, and 小钢. My Experiences: Thanks to thiis team keeping me updated on the daily lineup of programmes, I enjoyed an unhurried yet incredibly fulfilling vacation. During my stay, I was able to: - Interact closely with the in-house animals. - Enjoy a delectable afternoon tea on my sun deck while soaking in the fresh prairie air. - Decorate a candle with flowers. - Stroll along the grassland for photography. - Snap sunrise hues and animals from my room. - Indulge in a photoshoot. - Count the stars at night. Whether you are traveling solo, as a couple, or with a family, LISIMAN has something for everyone.

I booked a taxi from the airport with Trip. The driver had to leave me at the entrance to the Night Market rather than to my hotel as he had no other choice. Took a while to work out where the hotel was as traders blocked the entrance. Fortunately and unexpectedly my data from Mongolia worked so I could use AMap and Google translate to get to the right place. Accessed through an entrance with 2 elephant statues. Easy to see in the daytime, tricky for first time at night. Each receptionist I met over the days were very helpful and friendly( via Google translate and WeChat). Lift to the room. Very lovely room with round bed and private bathroom. Very clean and comfie. Kettle and tea provided. Air con which I actually used, from the cold of Mongolia to the heat of Kunming. Reception area had seating so one could enjoy tea there (free) and meet others if one felt like it.

This guesthouse is conveniently located just 10 meters inside the North Gate of Lijiang Old Town, so you don't have to drag your luggage far. It's easy to catch a taxi or ride a bike from here to anywhere. The guesthouse is on Wuyi Street (a food street), with a 7-11, Ba Wang Cha Ji, and Hougu Coffee all within about a 10-minute walk. We stayed three nights and opted for the high-speed rail pickup. The young owner provides excellent service – he's very proactive, friendly, and even speaks English! He also shared a guide to exploring the old town, including tips to avoid common tourist traps. The guesthouse itself has a lovely Bai ethnic wooden style, and the hygiene is great with a separate wet and dry area in the bathroom. The small courtyard is very charming and perfect for relaxing and unwinding. I highly recommend it to friends!

The hotel was not perfect, but I still rated 5/5 mainly due to the staff's super helpfulness. I highly recommend communicating with the hotel via Wechat beforehand. Taxis cannot reach the hotel's front gate, so you should ask the hotel to provide you with the address where taxis can drop you off. For us, we asked the hotel to help us book a pickup service from the railway station (40 CNY). While on the train, I chatted with the driver via Wechat and asked him to wait for us at the exit. It was very worth it as we didn't have to struggle with finding taxis outside the train station. Also, since the hotel knew what time we arrived, they also came in time to pick us up from the taxi drop off point and helped us with our luggage. It's about 200 meters' walk from the hotel. The hotel's gate is called Reading is Boutique (see my photo). I would have never found it had I not booked the pick up service. What I like about the hotel's location is that although it's a bit far from the main attractions (400m from the main square and 800m from the water wheel), it's very quiet. If I had booked a hotel in the center of the old town, I'd have suffered from immense noise from the nightclubs there. The hotel owner / staff (I'm not sure who he was) was super kind and helpful. He didn't speak English so we mostly communicated via Wechat where I could use the built-in translation tool. He gave me all information I needed and responded to my questions very quickly. Their breakfast was tasty - a bowl of noodles with 2 eggs per person. I ate the same breakfast for 3 mornings and didn't even get bored. On the second floor, there's a balcony where you could sit and enjoy a beautiful view of the old town. Our room was located on the ground floor. To be honest, it's a bit outdated already. The bed was not very comfy, and there was no door between the sleeping area and the toilet (only a curtain). However, it was fair enough with such a good price. It seems there's only one lady who does all the cleaning and housekeeping. She prepared breakfasts for us and helped us clean the room. However, we found a half-open bag of food from one of the drawers in our bedside cabinet - perhaps from a previous guest. Not sure how long it has been there though. I think rooms need better cleaning. Overall, if I had to choose again, I would still stay at this hotel. I appreciate all the transparency in communication, the location, and the vibe of this hotel. Highly recommend it!

Spirited Silky Inn truly made our stay in Dali unforgettable. The hotel's design is beautiful and thoughtfully crafted, creating a unique and welcoming atmosphere. A special thank you to Xiao Hui and Xiao Deng, who took exceptional care of us throughout our stay. The hotel kindly provided vouchers for Hanfu costume experiences. While the complimentary package did not include makeup and photography, these services were available upon request, so I would recommend asking the staff if you're interested. We also want to thank Huan Huan and her team for taking such great care of our family during the photoshoot. The experience was enjoyable, professional, and completely free of any hard selling. As we were leaving for Kunming, Xiao Deng even helped us with our heavy luggage and surprised us with a thoughtful goodie bag filled with local treats from the hotel. Such gestures made us feel genuinely valued as guests. Thank you to the entire team at Spirited Silky Inn for the wonderful hospitality, excellent service, and great value. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Dali.

This hotel is located right in the city center, with a lively pedestrian street and plenty of great food options downstairs. The halal beef pancakes right outside are delicious and always have a long queue! If you turn right out of the hotel and pass Nanning Street, you'll reach Shuncheng Shopping Mall, which boasts numerous restaurants. The Wuyi Road metro station is also right next to it. You can easily walk to Cuihu Park and several other pedestrian streets from the hotel, making dining and shopping incredibly convenient. The hotel breakfast offers a wide variety of dishes, including local Yunnan specialties like Er'si and rice noodles. The hotel maintains the high standards of Sheraton (Marriott), and the room facilities are excellent. The lovely front desk staff even upgraded my room and gave me a fruit platter. My room on the 28th floor offered expansive city views. For transportation to Kunming Station, if you're in a hurry, I'd recommend a taxi as there might not be a direct metro line due to the complex underground structure of the old city. One suggestion I have is to place ashtrays (or poles) outside the entrance. This would prevent guests who step out to smoke from a non-smoking hotel from littering cigarette butts.

This hotel is amazing! The environment is great, the facilities are new, and it has a fantastic ambiance. It's also very conveniently located, just a 10-minute walk to Baisha Ancient Town, and there's a free shuttle bus to take you there. The service is exceptional, especially our butler, Zhang Liang, who was incredibly nice. He was very responsive, patient, and attentive to all our needs. A special mention goes to the complimentary travel photoshoot – the pictures turned out absolutely beautiful! We are extremely satisfied! The resident dog at the guesthouse is also super friendly and adorable!

A very comfortable hotel with clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed rooms. During our stay, we experienced two different room types due to availability, both pleasant. The lady owner is warm and cheerful, and together with the lady cook, they prepared a delicious homemade breakfast each morning. Highlights included the rice noodles (mixian), creamy homemade soy milk, homemade bao, grain bread, and more. We truly appreciated their heartfelt hospitality. The rooftop garden is lovely and offers a beautiful view of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Highly recommended.👍

The hotel environment is fantastic, with many hot spring pools and lots of trees, plus a variety of small animals. Our room had floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, and we could even project movies. There's also a small private courtyard outside for a personal hot spring bath, which was amazing. The front desk staff were very attentive and detailed in their service, which was excellent. However, there was a minor flaw: there was no toilet paper holder in the restroom. The toilet paper was placed next to the sink outside the door, meaning you had to stand up to reach it, which was quite awkward.
