Nestled elegantly between the peaks of Cangshan Mountain and the waters of Erhai Lake, The Dali EDITION is a newly opened luxury sanctuary featuring 150 pristine rooms. Guests consistently rave about its state-of-the-art design, impeccable culinary experiences like the rooftop yakitori, and an astonishingly attentive guest relations team.

Set in a converted mid‑20th‑century sugar mill on the Li River bend, Yangshuo Sugar House (AURUA) is celebrated for bold industrial‑retro design, a spectacular infinity‑style pool, and warm attentive staff. Reviewers repeatedly praise the architecture, panoramic mountain views, curated activities and high‑quality dining, though some warn of occasional service lapses, limited English and the hotel’s distance from Yangshuo town.
