HAWTHORN BY WYNDHAM DALI ERHAI PARL

Overall is good, location also great as close to the station whereas the breakfast is nice. However; the Floor dirty is the concern, and remain of cigarette around window 🥲

We greatly enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Its location is very convenient as it is very near Dali Railway Station and it is also convenient to visit other tourist spots from the hotel. Upon arrival from the Dali Railway station, you can use the pedestrian overpass (with an elevator) to cross to the opposite side and walk for around 10 minutes to reach the hotel's entrance. No one speaks English among the hotel front desk staff but they go out of their way & patiently communicate with English speaking tourists through the google translate phone software. To go to tourist areas from the hotel is very convenient. You can ride the public bus in front of the parking lot which is located in front of the hotel. Bus 4 will bring you to the gate of the Three Pagodas of Dali & Chongsheng Temple. Bus 8 will bring you near the North Gate of Dali Ancient City. The bus fare as of Nov 2024 is 3 yuan per person. To go to the Erhai Lake ecological corridor, you can take a taxi (which is around 10 minutes ride) from the hotel. The hotel also provides free bottled water to their guests. Just get the bottled water in front of the table located near the elevator. The breakfast selection is delicious. Some tourists like us are not used to eating dishes using chopsticks. I hope the hotel could also provide spoon & fork as utensils for use by foreign tourists. The only downside of the hotel is that as smoking is allowed everywhere, one could smell cigarette smoke in the hotel lobby and corridors. To improve air quality, it is suggested that the hotel open the front door/windows so more fresh air could come in or perhaps, they could install air purifiers to purify the air.

The hotel is located right opposite of the Dali Train Station, so it is very convenient if you have an early train to catch. Moreover, the price per night is reasonable with breakfast included. Room is very clean and all amenities were provided.

Location is conveniently located within 5-10min walking distance from the Dali train station exit. There's escalators and lift to the bridge that crosses over from the train station. Just note that location is 20min ++ drive away from the Dali Ancient City. Gave a 4 stars for amenities as we encountered sudden cold water while showering on the first night, and the toilet lights in the room could not be turned off. Hotel facilities might need to be upgraded soon. Staff service made up for these shortcomings as response was prompt from staff to rectify our room's tv issue on the first day.

Well located . Hotel room was excellent for the cost.

Just across the road from the train station. Breakfast is alright, some western options.
