This should have more reviews as it is an awesome hostel directly next to the old town. Some rooms are very cutely designed. There is a very comfy common area with a hammock and mich more. The owner is extremely helpful. You can rent affordable electric scooters next door (no license needed). It takes a while to take the bus (4) to Dali Station or to Lijiang as traffic is really bad some times.

I had a great stay at this hostel. It’s only a short walk to the old town. The owner was incredibly helpful and friendly, helping me to plan the Tiger Leaping Gorge hike and giving me ideas on where to visit around Dali. The room was very spacious, and the bed super comfortable. I think I had my best nights sleep in China here!

Lily International Youth Hostel is a lovely place. Only a short walk away from the historic center but way calmer and a great place to relax from the crowded tourist spots. The owner family is nice and the staff is super helpful. Alex even drove me to the city center to take care of immigration office paperwork. I am very grateful for that help. I enjoyed my stay and highly recommend this place
