We stayed here for one night as part of our packaged tour. This is a 3-star hotel at best, and that is compared to what we had as a 5-star in Kunming, not western standards. The bathroom was dirty and mouldy and there were beetle in the corners. The TV was complicated and had a long confusing explanation for how... More

I always wonder why people inest so much money into an edifice like this so-called Regent Hotel, and do not spend just a little bit more to develop a character. This hotel is all a concrete structure with no soul, no life! The staff is unfriendly...in act the bell boys try to cheat guests when offered tips by saying they... More

We stayed at this hotel for one night via a Chinese American tour. It is a huge tacky hotel. I read that they didn't build the hotel up because of the past devastating earthquake so instead they built an expansive hotel width-wise. So it was a pain lugging your luggage through corridor after corridor passing by eerie mannequins draped with... More

In a place like Dali, you don't have lots of choices, especially in the Mid/high end of the Market. I guess this is why this hotel, who caters a lot to groups as well, is successful We had a reservation here for two nights, and extended the stay by one night. Not because of the hotel but because we liked... More

Dali is not a huge place and not a lot of hotels to choose from, so this is it! The rooms are large, free bottles of water, clean, quiet and safe. English tv in the rooms. The safety deposit boxes in the room didn't work even with the help of the hotel staff. So I used the free ones by... More

We were in Dali the end of October. We were booked into the Regent which has 3 separate buildings. THe furthest from the main building Is supposedly the most deluxe. We were booked for a courtyard view room but received a garden view room which is just fields. The front desk in this building did not speak English and could... More

This hotel was booked for us through a Chinese tour group. We had requested 5 star hotels because we realized that the North American rating was not necessarily the same in China. We checked into a non-smoking room and immediately smelled smoke. The carpets were disgusting, stained and not vacuumed. Mould in the bathroom shower. We had the bell boy... More

But maybe it's because we stayed in the much quieter building. It wasn't where the main lobby is, but off to the side, on the other side of the banquet building, and here it was peaceful, with a lovely lobby garden. Our rooms were incredibly huge -- suites with giant beds, a large sitting area, and very nice bathrooms. The... More

I'm staying in this hotel right now, and this is what I see: The only positive things I can say is that this hotel has a pool, the rooms are big, and they have generator back up for when the power for the area goes out (which was the main reason for us to move to this hotel the day... More
