Dali Ancient City Jixiang Wannian Pool Garden Hotel

The hotel is in a convenient location for exploring the Old City. The staff were helpful. Overall the hotel is a bit dated and if you are thinking of booking this hotel because of the pool think again. The pool is small and dirty. The photos on the website are misleading to say the least.

The hotel is located in the old town and an easy walk from shops, restaurants and bars. We chose the pool side rooms, which while lovely, lacked privacy and were quite noisy. The main lobby area is directly across and had their lights on most of the night which shine into these room. In addition you could hear the voice as people chatted even with the patio doors closed.

This hotel has such a cute vibe. Lovely pool area and coffee bar. It is in a pretty good location, right in the center of Dali ancient city. There are lots of restaurants and shops all within walking distance. I absolutely love the decorations and decor in the room, and the beds were comfortable.

Hottel is wery nice, staff is polite and helpfull. Location is great. Only thing missing, is guest laundry. And considering it is middle of January and it's 4°C in the morning, area where breakfast was served was not heated (doors on both side were open), so we had breakfust in our room. Apart that, everything else was great, we would stay here again.

Excellent service, the best bed and pillows in China! The rooftop is brilliant also!

Location is the standout reason to stay at this hotel but they did provide assistance with invoices and the rooms were nice.

Good location in the old town, however very quiet environment. Friendly service and relaxing atmosphere.

The hotel staff was amazing and helpful! We even got to meet the owners and they were very welcoming. The beds, etc were clean and comfortable. They also have a place to do your own laundry, which was great!! They have beer and proper coffee ! My only complaint was that they need to change the photos on ctrip because there is no gym or pool table anymore. However, chillest and most comfortable place I’ve stayed at in awhile. I’ll definitely stay here again.

This hotel is a relaxing oasis just off the bustling streets of the ancient town. The location was perfect to walk everywhere and the hotel itself was really lovely, homely and uniquely laid out, all the rooms seemed to be a little different and had their own delightful particularities. The owners were super helpful and accommodating, even giving us a free room upgrade (comfiest bed I’ve slept in in a while!) and helping out with finding us places to covid test and answering any questions we had about the town. We ended up spending quite a bit of time at the pool because the atmosphere was so relaxing and we even made friends with the hotel dog ‘General’. A great place to experience Dali from!
