"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

Dali Taoxi Secret Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Dali Taoxi Secret Manor is easily one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. The whole place feels like paradise with its beautiful gardens, and looking out at the mountains every morning was just stunning. My room was amazing and very well thought out. It had a fantastic bed, a wonderful bathroom, and a nice little courtyard. My spot right next to the main hall was perfect, and the mountain view from the room was incredible. Breakfast was great every morning—always fresh, delicious, and consistent. The location is also very good. It is an easy 10-minute walk past some nice old shops right to the gate of Dali Old Town, so it’s close to everything but still quiet. The best part of all was the staff. They really know what they are doing. They were warm, helpful, and genuine, but they also knew when to give you your space and when to offer help. A truly wonderful place. I couldn't have asked for a better stay."

Dali Nest Secret Garden Lake View Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The wash machine and dryer is very convenient, close to the lake, good place to watch sunrise."

Dali Yanyuan Mountain Retreat（大理晏清山居客栈)

10/10 Excellent

"The staff offers us with extraordinary service, and the facility is new and well maintained. We had a great experience at this guesthouse."

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."
