Sunyata Hotel

Name: Sunyata Hotel
Address: Dali and Shaxi

A contemporary retreat nestled in Dali's old city

A striking and cosy hotel set in the middle of the condensed ancient city of Dali, this micro-boutique space has the character of an enclosed and secluded retreat, ensuring a stay at Sunyata Hotel will provide rest and refuge from busy days exploring atmospheric Dali.

The hotel’s design and layout are the result of a leading architecture project, focused on creating a peaceful space and maximising impact within the area’s spatial limits. The result is a Zen village vibe, with each guest room resembling a micro-home of sorts. There are 14 cosy rooms in total occupying this unique space, all complete with chic and contemporary design features, with plenty of style, simplistic furnishings and little artistic features.

Charming and rewarding dining experiences are also a part of Sunyata Hotel’s offerings, with its fantastic on-site café-cum-restaurant serving up delicious and fresh food spanning numerous cuisines. Meanwhile, the hotel’s inviting central tea room proves the ideal setting for relaxation over a traditional mug of hot Chinese tea.

Sunyata Hotel Shaxi

Enjoying a good location close to the atmospheric old town of Shaxi, as well as presenting an authentic impression of local indigenous culture through its décor and design, Sunyata Shaxi Hotel is a charming and serene base in this culture-rich region of China.

Features such as the hotel’s Chinese garden and four striking courtyards, as well as numerous nods to caravan culture, perfectly demonstrate the life and times of the Tea and Horse Road, one of the Yunnan province’s most significant trade routes, of which Shaxi was a key component.

Warm woods, soothing earth tones and natural elements are present throughout the hotel, particularly the 21 guest rooms and suites. Light and airy, with simplistic design and décor based around wooden floors and beams, the guest rooms are comfortable havens to retreat to for a touch of relaxation during your time in Shaxi.

The hotel also provides some rewarding dining experiences, including delicious breakfasts and a number of local and authentic dishes which are served in the on-site restaurant.
