"民宿位置佳，就直望龍龕碼頭，但如想直望日出就非要住最貴的房型，否則如果是沖著在房不出門看日出，恐怕要失望了。民宿附近不能停車，要走大概5分鐘路程。入口不明顯，跟大路就隔了一個花槽，根本不知入口在哪。老闆算熱心，給我們升級了，但早上還是要出洱海旁才能看到真正日出，差不多800/晚的房，坦白說，應該會有很多更好的選擇。。。另外客棧的清潔有待改善，在上客房樓梯的旁邊有一個洗手間，門經常打開，會傳出嗅味。客棧有送兩枝水，但跟即熱水煲一同放在一個簡陋的掛衣架的最㡳一層，垃圾桶就在旁邊。。誰會拿來飲？好在我最初以為没有水，預備去買時老闆告訴我水都放在房內了，又即時再給我兩枝，總之感覺這客棧性價比不高，再去大理也不會再考慮了"

"非常差！非常糟糕！非常不愉快的入住体验！五星酒店价格最多三星的服务。绝对差评！当天下午 1 点不到就到酒店了，上一个住户还没退房，让我们等。等没问题，还没到 2 点，但不能牺牲和占用下一个住客的权利和时间吧？后面一直催一直催，酒店则以各种理由拖延，一会说住户延迟退房，一会说东西还在房间，不方便打扫，一直等到4 点多才入住，整整晚了两个多小时，下午的旅游计划也都打乱了。这还不止，进入房间还一股消毒水味道，直到一小时后才散去。过程中，酒店回复他们做了什么？说住户没回来，酒店将他们东西先搬走了。酒店为了保证入住体验，安排了2 个阿姨打扫并全屋消毒了......这些，难道不是你们应该做的吗？不是我让你们如此局促的打扫房间的。如果酒店跟前一个的住户沟通好何时必须要退房，预留足够的清扫时间，这些事情都提前安排好，给本人不愉快的事也都不会发生！不是么？"

Top Erhai Lake Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Dali Ancient City

8/10 Good

"i stayed here for a visit with friends and was happy with it. the hotel is clean and comfortable with surprisingly large rooms. it's more of a group-tour hotel with lots of tour buses around - but good value for a comfortable room located near some of the major sights in Dali. The breakfast was very good. I'd recommend it for someone who wants affordable comfort while exploring Dali."

The Windyard Kazan Onsen Hotel-Private Hot Spring Bathtub close to South Gate of Dali Ancient Town

8/10 Good

"It was a good stay for us, the room was clean, staff very friendly, but if you are a non smoker, there's second hand smoke in the breakfast area or common areas, which is typical of most properties as the staff smoke. The breakfast is suited for Chinese travelers, so if you are accustomed to a western style breakfast, you won't find it here."

SIXI GOLDEN SUNRISE SOUND SLEEP HOTEL

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very clean and the gentleman working behind the front desk was very friendly and tried his very best to help with questions we had about traveling around Dali. The hotel is right in the middle of Dali Ancient City, so if that's what you want the location is excellent. It's a bit of a ride to the train station, but Didi's are very affordable. The hotel is very hard to find and the translation for the name of the hotel from English to Mandarin doesn't give the right name of the hotel. It took us awhile to find the hotel and even our DiDi driver from the airport didn't know the name of the hotel, somehow we found it. It's a small boutique hotel with clean rooms, comfortable bed, and breakfast made to order. Overall it was a good stay for the price."
