Fodor's Expert Review Dali Gurong Hotel

One of the most pleasant hotels in Dali's Old Town, the upscale Dali Gurong offers spacious and well-furnished rooms in a cluster of villas in a park-like setting. Some of the villas are built around a babbling creek that can be crossed via a footbridge. Look for the relaxing garden dotted with picnic tables in the back. There's a teahouse and a restaurant, and the staff is happy to assist you with laundry or travel information.
