"This trip to Dali, I gave myself a reason to 'live amidst the scenery.' So I chose the Zhongli Qianxun Courtyard Hotel (Dali Ancient City South Gate Branch) – and the result was even better than expected: it's not one of those B&Bs that 'looks good in photos but is just ordinary to stay in,' but rather a place where every detail, from day to night, from the courtyard to the rooms, makes you want to slow down. 🏯 Courtyard: The gentle charm of the ancient city at a glance The hotel features a typical Chinese quadrangle courtyard structure, with grey tiles, wooden corridors, and carved windows. Walking along the verandas, you can't help but slow your pace. During the day, the light falls on the wood, casting a warm glow; looking down from above, the courtyard is enclosed in a quiet embrace, almost like switching from 'travel rush mode' to 'living mode.' Even more surprising – you can see the outline of the mountains in the distance. As dusk falls, the sky gradually turns blue-grey, and the mountain ridges appear like silhouettes. In that moment, you suddenly understand: the beauty of Dali isn't about hustle and bustle, it's about tranquility. 🐟 Waterside Fish Pond: Koi + Lotus Leaves + Reflections, truly photo-worthy The pond in the center of the courtyard is a huge bonus: lotus leaves float on the water, koi swim to and fro, and the water acts like a mirror, reflecting the eaves, lanterns, and verandas. My favorite way to shoot is with a low camera angle near the water – the reflections are absolutely stunning, especially after the lights come on at night, it's as if another world appears in the water. 🏮 Nighttime Ambiance: When the lights come on, the courtyard 'glows' At night, as the lanterns light up one by one, the entire atmosphere of the space completely transforms: During the day, it's elegant; at night, it's gentle with a touch of luxury. Sitting by the courtyard, listening to the sound of water, and watching the reflections, time seems to slow down immensely – that feeling of 'truly starting to relax on a trip' happens in this very moment. 🎁 Welcome Perks: Free afternoon tea + Free traditional costume experience (so much fun) Two additional 'enjoy-upon-check-in' perks make me want to recommend this place even more: 🍵 Free Afternoon Tea for Two (by the pond/waterside) Available once during your stay, from 13:30 to 18:00. The afternoon tea includes Dali aged tea and Dali's distinctive preserved plums (which I found very local). Sipping tea by the water is perfect for slowly letting go of the day's fatigue. 👘 Free Traditional Costume Experience: Full range of ancient/ethnic attire There’s a whole rack of clothes to choose from, enough to make your head spin. If you love taking photos, this experience is truly fantastic – shooting amidst the wooden corridors, carved doors and windows, and the lantern-lit night creates an incredible atmosphere. 🛏 Room Experience: Warm wooden space, comfortable stay The rooms are predominantly wood-toned, with warm lighting, making them very relaxing to be in. The bedding is clean, and the space feels unconfined. The worst part of traveling is when 'the outside is beautiful, but the room is hard to sleep in,' but that's not the case here. 🚿 I'm also satisfied with the bathroom: it’s generally clean and comfortable, the ceramic basin sink has a great texture, and the shower area is spacious enough, ensuring a worry-free stay."

"The hotel's location is super convenient, really close to tourist spots like March Street and the North Gate vegetable market. Plus, there's a ton of great food right downstairs, so you'll never go hungry! 😂 The owner is also incredibly helpful. The only downsides are that the hot water takes forever to heat up; I have to wait almost 5 minutes just to wash my face, and showering is practically impossible because the water just doesn't get hot enough. The AC also occasionally breaks down. 😂 Overall, everything else was really satisfying; it's just the hot water and AC that need improvement. 🙏 It's also quite Muslim-friendly! 👍"

"A strategic place located nearby the train station & many halal restaurants. Very clean room with complete amenities & very thoughtful receptionist who will guide you with everything they know please do not hesitate to book a hotel here. Going to repeat to stay here when I come to visit Dali"

"The room was absolutely beautiful and instantly felt comfortable as soon as I walked in. The sea view, in particular, was stunning and truly lifted my spirits every morning. The room was clean and tidy, and the service was exceptional; all the staff were so welcoming and enthusiastic! The breakfast was also delicious with a wide variety of options. A special thank you for the thoughtful high-speed rail station pick-up and drop-off service – it was a really nice touch. Overall, my experience was incredibly satisfying, and I'll definitely be back if I have the chance!"

"This guesthouse was recommended by a friend, and after staying for four days, we loved it so much we decided to extend our stay! The young men and women working there were fantastic, all very warm and helpful. They recommended great places to eat and fun activities, and even helped us avoid tourist traps. We were able to explore Dali in depth without much planning, thanks to them! We love taking photos, so we booked their scenic view room. The views were stunning, and the room itself was comfortable and clean. Housekeeping was very thorough during our stay. The room was well-equipped, especially the smart toilet which was super convenient, and the TV even had VIP access. Among all the places we stayed in Dali, this guesthouse was by far the most comfortable! The young man reminded us every day about breakfast, afternoon tea, and the goodnight sweet soup – such thoughtful service. They made different kinds of sweet soups for us daily, and in the evenings, we could even relax in the tearoom and chat with the young owner. It was absolutely delightful! The highlight of this guesthouse has to be the two Shiba Inus in the courtyard, one black and one yellow. They're so cute and lively. When we sat in the courtyard for a tea ceremony in the evenings, they would just lie obediently by our side! Cangshan Mountain is beautiful! Erhai Lake is romantic! This guesthouse is amazing! The dogs are well-behaved! The staff are so personable! And the environment is elegant! Highly recommended!"

"The room is really well decorated and well furnished. The view from the room is spectacular too! There were scooters you can rent right in front of the building which is so convenient for you to ride around the Erhai Lake! There is also a 24 hrs convenience store in the building and food stalls opposite the building."

"Just got back from Dali! I'd give this hotel, tucked away in an alley in the old town, full marks! The courtyard is absolutely beautiful! It's an old house that's been renovated, and from my room, I could even see the rooftops of the ancient city. The butler was super attentive, helped me with my luggage, and even recommended some local eateries. The breakfast rice noodles were delicious! It's a very photogenic place, every corner is stunning! All in all, if you want to stay in the old town but are worried about noise, this is the perfect spot! The price was also very reasonable."

"The biggest surprise at Hilton Dali this time was employee Xiao Gu! When checking in, he proactively helped with luggage, patiently explained about the Erhai Lake view rooms and breakfast times, and thoughtfully reminded me about nearby taxi stands. When I needed an extra pillow for the room, he delivered it within minutes, always smiling and enthusiastic. His service was super professional! I have to give a big thumbs up to Xiao Gu and the hotel. I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time!"
