Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

SingaporeThe service exceeded expectations. The room was very well designed, with a great view and had thoughtful amenities like bathrobes and tea. Location was very hard to find but once I called the manager he came to pick us up immediately. He also helped with food recommendations and ordering taxi to the train station. Any question or need was addressed quickly on WeChat. We really liked the manager, he was very polite, approachable and helpful. Thank you so much!

Our stay at Z. Garden Hotel was truly exceptional! From the moment we arrived, the host was incredibly responsive and helpful, making communication effortless as he spoke English—something quite rare in China. The apartment itself was spacious, comfortable, and fully equipped with all the amenities we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home. A special touch that warmed our hearts was when the host kindly offered to wash and hang our clothes at no extra charge. The location was another highlight—perfectly walkable to many attractions and just steps away from a variety of restaurants. We also encountered difficulty purchasing train tickets via Trip.com, but the host went above and beyond by helping us secure them through a Chinese app. An added bonus was the pool table available for guests, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Lastly, we want to extend our sincere gratitude to Mr. Wang and the kind lady who assisted us throughout our stay. Their hospitality was truly outstanding, and we are certain we’ll return one day. Highly recommended!

Great location. Walking distance to Dali ancient town with lots of eateries around. Great host - he greeted us when the taxi arrived and helped transfer our luggage to the lodging and our room. He also bought us breakfast and hung it outside our door when he found out that we had to check out at 6am to catch the train. The room was also spacious and comfortable! It was an enjoyable stay.

Everything about the stay and services are top-notch. Mr.Wang speaks good English and that is a plus point for foreigners. The accommodation is not accessible by car so once we reached there, the driver called Mr. Wang and he waited for us at the agreed spot. Mr. Wang also accompanied us when we waited for our driver back to Dali Railway staion. So kind and helpful of him. The stay is very conveniently located next to the heart of the ancient town.

United StatesCan't think of anything that I didn't like.
This tranquil boutique hotel is located in a quiet alley in a very convenient part of town (within walking distance to the ancient city area). The courtyard is airy, full of plants, and gave the whole environment a very peaceful feeling. The room is large, clean, and comfortable. The availability of a washing machine (for free) to wash our clothes was a nice bonus. Most importantly, the hotel's staff was incredible. The hotel's owner drove me to the hospital when I started to feel sick, and he stayed with me for two hours to help coordinate the care that I needed. I recommend this hotel 100%!

SingaporeHighly recommend staying at Z. Garden if you’re visiting Dali. We were well taken care of by our host, Xiao Chen who went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Z. Garden is near Dali ancient city (abt 15 min walk) and other famous attractions such as the 3 pagodas (15 min drive). It’s accessible and the property was clean, neat and cosy.

Tucked away in a quiet corner along the Main Street leading up to Dali Old town it’s a very convenient location away from the hustle and bustle of the Main Street. The room was very comfortable and had high ceilings which made the room feel larger. The breakfast was very enjoyable and the complimentary fruit tea was a nice addition.

Z Garden was perfect for our stay in Dali. The rooms are huge and very comfortable with massive windows and lovely bathrooms. The location is great, very near the old town, restaurants and coffee shops but down a side street away from the craziness. And the staff are so so helpful, they will help you with whatever you need and will go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. And a delicious free breakfast 10/10.
