Find 2-Star Hotels in Dali City

This guesthouse is absolutely amazing! It's run by a lovely couple. My friend and I had just arrived in Dali Ancient City, and because we were so sleepy, we accidentally got off the bus too early. When the owner found out, he came to pick us up on his scooter and even helped us carry our luggage upstairs. My forgetful friend lost the room card, but the owner didn't make us pay for it, and even gave us souvenirs when we left. As soon as we arrived in Dali, the landlady sent us a guide with recommendations. The room was incredibly clean, and all the amenities were perfect. The facilities were excellent and very smart.

Had a fantastic stay! The room was spotless, and the bedding was super comfy. The owners were incredibly friendly and responsive. The location was convenient, and it was really quiet at night, making for a very relaxing experience overall. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in town. Highly recommend!

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.

This stay is the best. The owner is a great human, from greeting us to taking care of anything you need to keep providing us with plenty of drinking water, all the recommendations you need he has got it all, even with the language barrier, he tried his best to communicate which really counts as efforts and how a place makes you feel. The room we stayed in had a great view of Cangshan Mountain, the balcony is just a cherry on top. You can get a full 360° view from the rooftop with amazing sunrise views. The location is very convenient. You can walk to all the good stops or take an electric vehicle from the stay itself as they have it available if you need it. There’s washing machine on the rooftop incase you need to do the laundry. Overall we had a really comfortable time here, we will definitely come back here. 10/10 recommended.

Because of the internal friction and pressure in the workplace, I chose to travel to Dali. On the first day, I stayed in another B&B booked on Ctrip for one night. It was very noisy and the hygiene was poor, so I changed. On the second day, I searched for B&Bs in Cai Village that were close to Erhai Lake but not facing the sea (facing the sea would be noisy) on Baidu Maps. Then I went to Ctrip to check the phone numbers and called them one by one. I looked at several B&Bs and the hygiene was not good. Finally, when I was about to give up, I finally arrived at Blue Sea Whisper: 1. Travel: The B&B is located in Cai Village. The B&B is a 1-minute walk to Erhai Lake. You can ride an electric car for more than 20 minutes to check in at Xindi Coffee and Longkan Wharf in the Erhai Ecological Corridor. It is a 3-minute walk from Cai Village CBD. It is very good to see the sea and eat. Very convenient. By the way, I strongly recommend bean curd rice noodles. 2. Environment: It is close to Erhai Lake but not the closest to it, so it is very quiet. The yard is very tidy, the room is very clean and new, and the sunlight is very comfortable. There is a terrace leisure area on the third floor, and you can also watch the sunrise and sunset on the roof. 3. The owner of the homestay is a super gentle and kind lady. On the first day, she recommended a route according to my schedule, took me out on an electric car, saw that I didn’t go out to play, brought me fruit to eat, invited me to eat with their family, etc., which made me feel great kindness and warmth on this trip. I sincerely recommend that if you travel for a long time or stay for a stay, you must go to the site to see the homestay before booking. Some are really scams. I strongly recommend this homestay. Next time I come to Dali, I will stay here again. It is very comfortable and really healed my mental exhaustion.

I highly recommend this guesthouse to everyone! From the moment I walked in, I felt so comfortable. The overall environment is neat and fresh, and the common areas are very well maintained. I was initially worried about there being no elevator, but the owner kindly helped carry my luggage upstairs, and also helped again when I checked out. The guest room's cleanliness and attention to detail were excellent, with all amenities provided and tidy. The owner's service was thoughtful and attentive, and responses were very quick. The room's soundproofing was reliable, so there was no disruptive noise, and the location was easy to find. It offers great value for money. They even gave us a guide and travel tips, helping us avoid common pitfalls. Plus, the electric scooters were free to use, saving us taxi fares. This guesthouse is definitely worth recommending!

I'm a local and I stayed at Sanniu Island with my child during the off-season. This hotel offers great value for money and allows you to enjoy the lifestyle around Xindi Cafe. Compared to similar hotels, it's quite affordable. It's separated from Erhai Lake only by a lush, flowering green belt, so there's no noise from crowded corridors!

The hotel is very clean and the staff are friendly. They give valuable information to assist in planning our tours, places to eat. For those first timer, this is the easiest way to get from the Dali Railway Station to the hotel: Exit the train station and keep to your right (don’t have to cross the road now). Just walk along the the road for 200 meters. Cross the road at zebra crossing. Hotel is right infront.

I wouldn't recommend the backyard area; the front yard I'm unsure about. The common areas generally aren't very clean. After showering, the floor is always soaked, and while I'd wipe it up myself, others don't, making it a slipping hazard. Cats can enter the rooms, and I've seen big bugs. Kitchen fumes drift into the rooms, and there's noise around 5 or 6 AM that wakes you up. Getting a taxi in the ancient town isn't convenient. The only upside is that the young people are friendly and happy, but the overall environment is just average for a hostel.

I'm from Taiwan, and as soon as I entered the lobby, I felt the service of the owners. The weather was cold and there was heating ❤️. Sitting on the window sill of the accommodation, I could listen to the music from the bar opposite, which was great. It was also very convenient to go to the morning market for breakfast the next morning.
