9.7/10

GGuest UserI wholeheartedly recommend this hotel. This is my third visit to Dali, and it's by far the most comfortable hotel I've stayed at near Dali Old Town. Its location is incredibly convenient for exploring, the service from the staff was outstanding, and the bedding was exceptionally comfortable, truly living up to five-star standards. On our check-in day, it happened to be my daughter's birthday, and we were pleasantly surprised when the hotel presented her with a complimentary birthday cake. The hotel's dining experience was also exceptional. From the welcome dessert and afternoon tea to the evening sweets, every detail showcased the hotel's meticulous attention and thoughtful management. The breakfast, in particular, was a standout; for a hotel with only 10 rooms, their semi-buffet breakfast far surpassed what you'd typically find at many 5-star hotels. This is definitely a hotel worth returning to.

MM461387****The LUCHUN Garden Hotel is fantastic! The environment is clean and well-maintained, and the rooms are spacious and bright. The bedding is soft and comfortable. The succulents in the garden courtyard are thriving, and enjoying tea or coffee there is truly relaxing. Breakfast is also excellent; the freshly cooked mushroom rice noodles are delicious, and the wontons with mushroom broth offer a unique flavor. There's a wide variety of options too. Butler Chuyi was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. After booking, they contacted me promptly and added me on WeChat, answering all my questions and responding to every request. Everyone's service was so considerate; they helped with luggage, breakfast could be delivered to the room, and there was even bedtime milk in the evening. The only downside was the shuttle drivers, especially the one with license plate 99801, who kept pushing for private car tours and tried to get customers to add them on WeChat. Also, many drivers smoked right by the entrance and weren't in uniform, which affected the hotel's image and was a stark contrast to the other staff. Aside from this one point, the rest of the service was truly, truly excellent. I'll definitely stay here again!

GGuest UserMy wife and I, along with an old couple, just spent 6 wonderful days at this charming hotel. As older folks who have lived in the US for a long time and traveled extensively around the world, we were so glad we chose the Tinghua Island Hotel in Shuanglang Ancient Town. What truly left a deep impression were the stunning views of Erhai Lake and the distant Cangshan Mountains through the large windows, as well as the busy black and white water birds playing on the lake. The young staff at the hotel were incredibly enthusiastic and attentive, from their pre-arrival communication to the meticulously prepared breakfast and afternoon tea each day, and finally, their warm farewells â simply perfect! I believe that whenever I think of Dali and Erhai Lake in the future, the first image that comes to mind will undoubtedly be this white 'Tinghua Island' located between the North and South gates of Shuanglang.

The butler provided thoughtful and attentive service, and the bedding was so soft I slept like a baby. Breakfast offered a wide variety and tasted great too. The location is excellent, and the surroundings are quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend! I'll definitely choose this place again next time!

11351095****Facing Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain, the hotel offers expansive views of the city. Every day, from 7:40 AM to 8:20 AM, you can enjoy the stunning 'Golden Summit' sunrise over Cangshan from the large balcony in your room. All guest rooms are spacious 224-square-meter suites, ensuring an exceptionally comfortable stay. The complimentary Bentley pick-up and drop-off service to and from Dali Station was a pleasant surprise. Although it's a guesthouse, the service quality is top-notch, with all staff members providing warm and attentive service. The butler checked in with us daily, making us feel right at home. The rooms are incredibly clean and fully equipped, and the toiletries are of high quality. Dali Lish House is highly recommended for families and friends traveling together!

GGuest UserThe hotel's sea view is absolutely stunning and very photogenic, truly deserving its reputation as a scenic hotel. The service was attentive and thoughtful; both afternoon tea and the goodnight dessert were complimentary. A special shout-out to our butler, Qingling, whose gentle and soft-spoken demeanor left a lasting impression. Five-star rating!

AAnonymous User1. **Check-in Area:** The check-in counter, or front desk, was quite shabby. The computer keyboard was practically caked in grime, and don't even get me started on the sofa next to it â it looked very unhygienic.
2. **Dining:** The breakfast area was a bit cramped, with just four small tables by the street. If you're a party of more than two, you'd have to sit separately, or you might even have to stand and wait for a table. The coffee, however, was good. I only had breakfast once: a cold quinoa salad (see Photo 6) served with bread that had an overpowering artificial creamer flavor. I had been looking forward to the rice noodles for the next day, but serving didn't start until 8:30 AM, which was far too late for my rumbling stomach. Early risers and those who prefer hot meals should seriously consider other options or make alternative arrangements.
3. **Room (2nd floor) - Noise Issues:** Don't even think about getting any sleep at night. After 11 PM, there was still noise along the street, along with the clanging of the garbage truck. (Seriously, I'd strongly advise against staying in the Old Town.) The next day, it started pouring before dawn, and the sound of the heavy rain kept me awake as well.
4. **Room - Facility Issues:** The room I stayed in was supposedly the quietest in the entire hotel. It featured a large bathtub and a bathroom where the toilet and shower area lacked wet/dry separation. Unable to deal with the wet floor, I decided to shower in the bathtub. That's when I discovered Problem #1: the glass partition was completely transparent, with no curtain or frosted glass. The staff member claimed this was 'design.' Then came Fatal Problem #2: the bathtub had no running water, haha! đ
5. **Room - Odor Issues:** Upon entering, there was a strong musty smell. The staff claimed it was due to 'raw wood,' but it's been 8 years and it still smells like that? Quite amusing.
6. **Staff (Pre-Check-in):** Before I even checked in, they asked me to cancel my booking on the platform and pay them privately for a discounted rate. I have this in writing. This is definitely a huge red flag, and I'm surprised they even dared to suggest it.
7. **Staff (General):** The individuals themselves were nice enough, but I was surprised to find that all the 'Jixiashan' staff were quite young, without uniforms, and seemingly without direct supervision, which gave a very disorganized and casual impression.
8. **Housekeeping:** I was quite satisfied with the housekeeping. Seeing the clean duvet and towels gave me peace of mind (P.S. the pillows were also comfortable). The hotel's facilities are very old; no matter how clean the bathroom tiles were, they still looked run-down, compounded by the dim lighting. Therefore, I feel the housekeeping staff here really have a tough job.
9. **Building Structure:** One morning, during a heavy downpour, when I opened my 2nd-floor room door, the entrance was essentially flooded up to my heels. It was quite a feat that the water didn't spread into the room. At night, there were no lights, so I had to grope my way back to the room along the dark corridor. It would be quite difficult for someone who doesn't remember their way (see Photos 1-2).
10. **Hotel Amenities:** One night, I heard the guest next door return, unable to open their door with the key, and had to call a staff member for help. They chatted for a bit outside the door before the staff member finally told the guest a 'trick': 'The key needs to be inserted a certain way, and the lock has a particular mechanism...' That's quite a struggle â needing a special technique just to get back to your room!
11. **Minor Details:** The room key had a very large, bulky leather tag attached to it. Absolutely no consideration for travelers on long journeys with limited luggage space. Who would want to carry such a bulky thing around?
I originally had high hopes for the 'Jixiashan' brand. When I was in Shangri-La, I heard their Meili store had a collaboration with Kolon, which made me think they had good taste. This Dali Ancient City location is their first store, but it turned out to be such a low standard. Given the daily rate, I guess I understand why. This particular store cannot be found on 'Jixiashan's' mini-program; it's categorized under 'Wang Shenme Chuan Qu Le'.

11381145****We booked the Duchamp room this time, traveling with seniors and children. There's a corridor outside the balcony, and the room is on the first floor. Plus, there's a bar right next to the hotel with a live singer performing until past 11 PM. If you're sensitive to noise or need a quiet sleeping environment, I wouldn't recommend this room type.
However, the scenery in Dali is absolutely stunning. As the saying goes, 'Cangshan is a masterpiece painted without ink, Erhai is an ancient zither played without strings,' truly unforgettable.
Everything else was excellent, especially the butler service. They were very attentive and helped us resolve any issues we encountered. The afternoon tea and late-night sweet soup were also lovely. Overall, we had a wonderful vacation and would definitely come back to experience the charm of Dali and immerse ourselves in the local culture again if we get the chance.

GGuest UserClouds Villa is absolutely incredible. After staying in the heart of Lijiangâs Ancient City, it was refreshing to be up in the mountains hereâpeaceful, scenic, and really fresh airâbut still only about a 10-minute Didi ride into Dali Ancient Town when we wanted cobbled streets, fried cheese, rose cakes, and all the amazing food.
We came here for our honeymoon and booked a hot spring villa, and to our surprise, we were upgraded to an even larger villa. The staff also surprised us with a bottle of red wine and a delicious cream cakeâa really thoughtful touch that made our stay feel special.
The hot spring itself was perfect. After a day of walking the Ancient City or biking around Erhai Lake, relaxing in the steaming water was heavenly. The villaâs private yard was beautifully designed and made for the perfect chill spot. The whole resort is landscaped with careâgardens, ponds, and mountain views everywhere you turn.
The breakfast buffet was delicious and variedâplenty of choices to start the day right. It was all so nice that we extended our stay by a couple of days because we just didnât want to leave.
Another highlight is the location right next to the Chongsheng Temple complex. The temples are stunning and absolutely worth a visit, and at night you can even hear the bells ringing, which adds a magical vibe to the stay.
All in all, Clouds Villa was everything we could have hoped for and more. I honestly wish I could live there forever.
