Top hotels in Dali Ancient Town
Dali Old Courtyard Boutique Inn
It was a very pleasant trip to this hotel. I got a pick up airport to hotel. The manager came to transport our luggages with a kind of motor tricycle because the hotel can not be access by car. You have to walk about 200 m to the hotel which is in the middle of old town.. Breakfast is good

Lovely hotel with lots of character and conveniently located in the Old Town. However, hotel parking was challenging as it is located 600m from the property.

SIXI GOLDEN SUNRISE SOUND SLEEP HOTEL
Everything was pretty good .....except there was no bathroom wall. It would be helpful to install a Chinese partition between the bathroom and the bed.
