We were here also 14 years ago and in those days Jim's was the place to be. 
Old Dali has improved dramatically in terms of restoring old houses and streets. also the restaurants offer a much bigger choice and now have English menu's.
The hotel  still has Jim and since it was not busy he could devote a lot of time with us, including a one day "minority tour". Breakfast brings little choice, it is pancakes, some fruit and sweetened yogurt. the rooms were ok and certainly value for money.
All in all three days, very successful also thanks to Jim's company.

needs an upgrade...

Jim’s Tibetan Hotel is located close to the South gate of Dali’s ancient city, tucked away in a quiet alley.
The hotel has a homey atmosphere and is decorated in a colorful Bai and Tibetan style. You may enjoy the sunshine on the roof terrace at the top floor where you can also enjoy the view over the whole city. Rooms are clean, have comfortable beds as well as airconditioning (hot/cold). Every day starts with a delicious breakfast, provided by the hospitable and friendly staff.
You can find all kinds of restaurants closeby and if you want to make an interesting daytrip to the countryside around Dali, then search for China Minority Travel or Dali countryside trips.

Homely hotel in Tibetan & Bai style

Jim's Tibetan Hotel in Dali is lying on a quiet place near the old town of Dali. Here is starting the Tibetan feeling and hospitality. The staff let feel you home directly and the rooms are clean and the food is excellent. When you want you can make excursions to nice places in the surroundings with guide Jim or Henriette. They have many knowledge and experience. Then you come to special places to see the country life and make contact with the local people. Our stay there was excellent and we still remember them every day.  

You feel home directly !!!

During our two week tour of Yunnan (organised by China Minority Travel/Henriëtte Buist) we stayed at Jim's for 2 nights. The room and beds were very comfortable, and we very much enjoyed the Tibetan decorations all over the property, very beautiful!

Breakfast was delicious (yes, it is nice to have some western food every now and then, even though we had very good Chinese meals throughout our trip), and Jim is a very hospitable guy with a great sense of humour. We highly recommend booking a daytrip with him around the area too!

Very relaxed stay in a beautifully decorated hotel with great host

Good hotel with a personal touch. We were welcomed in Dutch by Jim's son. The rooms were nice with good beds, the hotel has a nice terras at the roof. Breakfast was very good with yoghurt with fresh fruit and pancakes. The hotel is decorated with local colourfull wood, you can sit in front of your room. It is near the old citycentre of Dali, so you walk to the centre. They offer nice daytrips, we have made a trip to the countryside. Really interesting.

Very nice hotel

Most important: the really friendly owner (Jim) and his son.
We stayed for 3 nigths and felt really at home.
Jim is super friendly.  He walked us to a nice muslim restaurant (excellent food) 1 minute from the hotel.
We rented bikes at the hotel (the only place we could rent bikes without using a phone), and one night he taught us Mahjong (there is fully automatic game table in the hotel lobby/eating room.
Rooms are clean, and there is a great view from the roof viewing platform.

Friendly hotel

My wife and I returned home after a 30 day tour around China. A major highlight for us was the two and a half fantastic weeks of travel in Southwest China. Henriette Buist of China Minority Travel organized all of our transportation, hotel and local tour arrangements for this portion of our trip. She is a delight to work with and offered many great ideas on the what to visit in each location. It was a complex, personalized tour for just the two of us, but Henriette made everything simple and seamless. She answered all our questions about communications, tour options, logistics and safety.
If you ever have an interest to visit this area I highly recommend that you contact Henriette. She is awesome!

We really enjoyed our stay at Jim’s Tibetan Hotel in Dali. Jim took us on an outstanding tour of the Yi villages in the mountains outside the city. It was a great pleasure and education to spend time with Jim. He is so knowledgeable and was able to take us to places we would never find on our own.

Very confortable hotel with easy access to old town

Jim's Tibetan Hotel is located close to the Dali ancient town, is only few meters far. We really enjoy the view from the roof top from where you can see all Dali, Erhai Lake and the mountains. The room was split into two small room plus a toilet, it was clean but a bit cold, I would suggest to place an heater in each room, only one is not enough to warm up the whole main room. For the rest everything was fine, and I definitely recommend this special hotel for you stay in Dali.

Good Atmosphere 

Jim’s Tibetan Hotel is a small guesthouse located near the South Gate in Dali Old Town. No free breakfast but it has comfortable beds and a lovely Tibetan style. The view of the Old Town from the rooftop terrace is amazing. Jim and his family took care of our requests quickly.  Excellent English spoken here!

Good place for foreigners in Dali. 

Very well run, clean and interesting hotel. Everything was spotless clean. Jim’s tour of Yi villages and local markets and temples was so well done, with great balance between  information and time to ourselves for looking at the features as we went. The little restaurant just down the street produces wonderful local food. The hotel is at the edge of old Dali town so walking to significant places is quite easy. Recommend Jim’s highly.

Flew in to Dali. Picked up by Jim. Welcomed with a fine meal from neighbouring restaurant and Tibetan beers.
