Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Nice little hostel perfectly located by old town. Rooms modern, though a little cramped. Linen changed every day and a fresh bottle of water probably which was nice.

    it's one of the best hostels I've stayed in years of travel. I'd like to thank Pan Pan for her dedication to my needs. It's clean, comfortable bed, great location, what more could you ask for. The dorms are not overcrowded, only 3 beds in mine. I loved the background music it plays throughout the hostel. I highly recommend

    Great location, right next to the scenic area. The hotel staff were very warm and welcoming, they gave us lots of tips on travel and itinerary, not just in dali but other places close by. Room was clean and spacious with lots of thoughtful amenities.

    Excellent location, accessible to the old ancient town so easily. The lady boss was meticulously ensuring all guests are well taken care of, always there to greet in morning and ensuring we returned safely at night.

    Great location, just 10mins drive from train station and 20mins to airport, a good place if you do transfer / short stay in Dali, because it is a bit far from all the sightseeing place except Erhai Lake. My room is well equipted and has beautiful lake view, which is quite beautiful. Staff is friendly.
