"This hotel really needs to update their online description because they are underselling themselves. The property and room were beautiful. The breakfast buffet (which according to Hotels.com required a surcharge but turned out to be included for free) was amazing. And they even helpfully stored our luggage after we checked out so we wouldn’t have to drag it to the Dali Museum. Overall this was an unexpected treat and we would highly recommend it."

"Had an amazing stay. The staff were welcoming and the room was lovely with modern comforts in an old fashioned feel. And much bigger than it looked in the pictures. The location was very convenient for crossing the bridge in and out of town. Breakfast was solid and a great start to the day. Consider taking a walk up to the pool for a high up view of the area. All in all a great stay and value for the price."
