Hotel Indigo Dali Erhai

Erhai Lake stretches outside the windows here, and the hotel positions itself to make that view count. Hotel Indigo Dali Erhai is a boutique hotel on the lake's south bank, next to Erhai Park, where the rooms lean minimal but warm up with local woodworking and indigo-dyeing craft details. It's the kind of place that puts you close to the water without making you feel like you've wandered into a generic lakeside resort.
