Mengjing Yayuan Hotel (Dali Ancient City)

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, cozy, and beautifully decorated, and our child really enjoyed staying here. There was plenty of space for our little one to relax and play, which made the room feel very comfortable for the whole family. We also loved the atmosphere of the hotel and its convenient location, with easy access to Dali Ancient Town. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, we had a very pleasant and relaxing experience, and our child especially loved the room. We would definitely be happy to stay here again!

We absolutely loved our stay at Mengjing Yayuan. For context, we usually stay at 5 star hotels when traveling internationally. The location of Mengjing Yayuan was hard to beat, as it is quite literally a block away from the entrance of Dali Ancient City and the reviews were great, so we decided to book. It is more of a boutique style hotel, but with very good management, facilities, and amenities. The air conditioning in our room was modern/updated and worked very well, which was great since that's not always the case in China. Communication with the front desk/reception was very easy through Wechat, and any requests were fulfilled very quickly and happily. I speak Chinese, but I don't think it would have been much of a problem if I didn't given the in-built translation on Wechat. They also provide a free laundry service, which was invaluable! Breakfast was simple, but delicious and filling. You choose a cooked noodle dish out of several options that's made fresh for you, and also have a buffet available, so there was something for even pickier eaters. Overall, lovely stay and we would totally come back for our next visit!

Had a wonderful time in the hotel. Its is very near (2 mins walk) to Dali Ancient City South gate. Exploring Dali Ancient city was walkable which made the location perfect. It was also quiet and peaceful staying in even though the road outside can get pretty hectic. Room was exactly as shown and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Staff was very attentive with your needs and always available for anything you need. Having tea and coffee available at the lobby 24hours was a nice touch! Hotel was very clean, nicely designed and decorated. Would definitely come back again when visiting Dali.
