Dali Ancient City · Anyu Hotel

The experience at AnYu was perfect. The hotel is located in the ancient city. Taxi/Uber can park right in front the hotel entrance unlike some other ancient city hotels need to walk from the main street, which is incredibly convenient. The "Nanyang style" decor style is retro and divine. Every single piece of the furniture and decor item is beautifully chosen, even including the fire distinguisher box! Excellent ambiance, BOSE music system is throughout the whole building. Dyson hair dryer, different type of charging cables in the best side table, every single details reflect the thoughtfulness. From exquisite afternoon tea, night snack (Broth of white fungus or hot milk), to ‘fine dining’ breakfast, every detail has been handled perfectly, and all complimentary. Big thank you to the staff, international 5+ star hotel standard, their beautiful smile truly make you feel like home, and hands down they make best coffee in Dali!

I had an amazing stay at Anyu Dali, and their hospitality truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly helpful, assisting us with our luggage and even coordinating with the Didi driver when we were rushing to catch our railway. They went above and beyond by providing weather updates for our next destination, Lijiang, and noticing that we were unprepared for the cold, they thoughtfully gave us heat pads. As first-time guests, we were treated to complimentary afternoon tea and breakfast, as well as four free laundry items for washing. The welcome gift was a lovely touch, and they even prepared a warm nighttime drink before bedtime, making our stay feel extra special. What really stood out was their attention to detail—even knowing that we would be staying at Anyu Lijiang next, they arranged to give us our farewell gift there, considering our luggage was already full. The level of service here surpasses that of many well-known hotels, and I will definitely choose Anyu again the next time I visit China. Highly recommended for those who appreciate genuine hospitality!

Lovely hotel. Has a Zen-like feel. Fantastic breakfast.

We loved this hotel. It is very esthetic and the staff is really helpful. The location is good: close by the old city and can be reached by car. However when we were there it was hard to reach by taxi. Because of the Holiday season the traffic was extremely busy.

Beautiful hotel with very personal service. Really love the breakfast and afternoon tea. Excellent hotel. Good location to ancient city Dali. Recommended.

Very stylish hotel in Dali Ancient Town. Loved the details in our room and in the hotel overall. Service was impeccable and breakfast was very enjoyable with interesting sides. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.
