dali xianlai Inn

We had an amazing experience during our 4 night stay in the Xianlai inn (idle inn) in Dali. We were hosted by a wonderful couple that went above and beyond typical hotel hospitality. They met all our requests ( eg fixing our showering hose when the water output was too low, helping to extend our stay for 2 more night when our friend experienced health issues etc). We were a group of 5 travellers and they tried their best to provide the largest available rooms for us during our extension. They also gave very good food recommendations (these restaurants were clean and hygienic. The staff were nice and the food was delicious) A friend of ours injured (tipsy) himself from a fall in the hotel room late into the night. We informed them and they immediately helped us get taxi to the hospital and the husband even travelled to the hospital to help with us with communications with the local medical staff. When our friend came back to the hotel the wife even provided homemade food for him as he had no appetite. Would highly recommend this inn to all visitors to dali for a comfortable and wonderful stay. You can also get them to order bus shuttle services for u to other locations like lijiang and shangri la Other info: (bed is comfortable, rooms were spacious and clean, plenty of drinking water, )

Boss and lady boss were super nice. Asked for recommendation for food upon arrival and lady boss offered to help me order using their ** app so that I could enjoy a better deal. During my stay, toilet also got choked in the middle of the night and the boss came to assist immediately. Thumbs up for service!

Quite a nice hotel, very close to Dali Ancient Town. There's a halal restaurant within walking distance. The owners are very kind, help us carry our luggage and let us store our luggage at the hotel for free after check out. A lot of Malaysians stay at this hotel. The down side is there's no elevator. Not suitable for elderly. Overall, it's a nice stay.
