Since this is the only established hotel in the area, there were a lot of guests. Too many that the staff cannot hotel. The door was faulty, we dialed the service line but no one came. The breakfast buffet line was pandemic too. With the high traffic, plates and bowls run out quickly, not to mention the lack of seats.... More

The Regent hotel is the largest hotel in Dali. We stayed in a luxury suite, at first appearance it looks nice, but when you really start looking it is anything but five star. By the way the Five star is China standards not the same as U.S. standard. This would be. Three star at best in the U.S.. The hotel... More

We travelled to Kunming, Dali and Lijiang in a group tour from March 20 to 27 and stayed in the Regent Dali on March 22 and 25. The hotel is huge with a maze of corridors. The room is big with all the usual amenities of a 5-star hotel. Slippers and a tissue box (the only hotel which provided this... More

This is a Chinese hotel catering mainly for coachloads of domestic tourists, located in the far reaches of Yunnan Province, not a Four Seasons in a major metropolis, so expectations should be set accordingly. All the same, the Regent was pretty awful - mainly because it was absolutely freezing in our room. The heating seems to run for a few... More

This was the first stop on our five day Yunnan tour which was organised by my girlfriend's work. We didn't have a say in which hotels we stayed in; however, we had been to China before and knew what to expect. We arrived on a cold, wet November evening. The hotel was massive and not badly decorated, but had no... More

Stay there during a Yunnan tour, huge hotel compound, very big hall, not very well manged. Nearly not any English speaking staff, average meals, not really international standard. Location is so far outside that you have to take a taxi to downtown, parking in downtown is close to impossible. The facilities in the hotel are average, massage service was questionalble... More

We were told by our tour agent that this is the best hotel in Dali but was skeptical after reading all the poor reviews here. When we arrived we noticed that hotel compound is very big as there are various blocks. Our rooms were on the main building. We stayed for one night on 24/12. Room decors are modern, beds... More

I would never go back to Dali until they build a better service hotel. Nobody would offer any greeting at the door. Worst experience: 1. Moving suitcases down the winding hallway and see mouse running down the courtyard. 2. Find mosquito in room. Spending a night wondering where it was. 3. Restaurant service is worst than a cheap fast food... More

The hotel had a huge spacious, unheated lobby area, not where you want to sit out in November. It was a long walk to my room, all in unheated space, some of it outdoors. Reminded me of a Best Western. The staff was helpful and check-in was speedy. They gave us electric space heaters for our rooms. The restaurant served... More
