Qianyu Seaview Resort Hotel

The environment and service were both great. The breakfast provided by the hotel was freshly made by an auntie. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Dali~

I booked this place for the sea view, and it truly lives up to expectations – the stunning views of Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake are right in front of you. A special mention goes to the showerhead; it has so many modes and is the best I've encountered in any hotel. The room lighting is also very well designed. My only minor complaint is that the mattress was a bit too soft for me, so I didn't sleep as well as I hoped. Also, the room has an independent air conditioner. I stayed at several hotels over a few nights, and they all had central heating, which meant I was waking up hot every night and couldn't sleep – it was pretty miserable. So, if you're visiting Yunnan in winter, keep this in mind; being too hot can be worse than being too cold. The B&B is located near a ferry port, so it can be a bit noisy. If you're looking for a quiet lie-in, you might want to consider this, though closing the balcony windows helps a lot. The staff (the 'xiaojiejie' as we call them) were very warm and attentive. The B&B is also quite close to the high-speed train station and offers pick-up or drop-off services, which is a thoughtful touch. Overall, I'd still recommend it.

The room was super comfortable with a fantastic view and a unique perspective. Downstairs, it's really convenient with plenty of food options, and Erhai Park is right next door. If you want to take a boat trip, it's just a short walk away.

Traveling with my family, we received a wonderfully warm welcome from the hotel staff. From check-in to room service, everything was thoughtfully and meticulously handled. The breakfast was exquisite, and our entire family of nine, from my sixty-something parents to our one-year-old baby, had an absolutely fantastic experience.
