Location & Features

The hotel’s entrance is designed without a threshold, reminiscent of the traditional town life in ancient Dali, where every household has flowing water and gardens full of flowers, embodying a peaceful, carefree atmosphere. In front of the hotel’s entrance stands a Ming Dynasty martial arts temple screen wall, built during the Hongwu era over 600 years ago. This precious artifact not only adds to the hotel’s aesthetic but also provides shelter from the wind and rain.

The hotel preserves 40% of its space as public areas, offering a glimpse into the traditional lifestyle of the people of Dali, allowing guests to reconnect with the ancient town’s heritage.

Hotel Zones & Facilities

Hotel Zones:
The hotel is divided into four areas based on function, each named after ancient literary concepts: You Tian, Bu Yu, Wu Yin, and Jiao Xin, which convey deep philosophical meanings. The hotel offers a range of facilities including a Chinese restaurant, a Western restaurant (with a water bar), a chess room, a tea room, an indoor swimming pool, and a rooftop garden. The garden, positioned at the highest point in the ancient town, provides stunning panoramic views of Erhai Lake and Cangshan Mountain. The hotel also offers free high-speed WiFi, blending modern facilities with the cultural essence of the ancient town.

Room Features:
Some rooms come with small gardens where guests can enjoy views of the ancient town. Garden Mountain View rooms feature a private courtyard with well-designed rockeries, greenery, and the soothing sound of flowing water, creating a tranquil retreat. The hotel offers one of the best sunrise views in Dali—you don’t have to wake up early to catch the sunrise, as you can enjoy it right from the hotel!
