I stayed here for a night in December 2011 in one of the private twin rooms with an en suite bathroom. The views as everyone else has commented are stunning. I passed by the Tea Horse and Tina's and the views at those properties just could not compare with those offered by the Halfway. The location is also ideal as... More

Halfway is a good place to stay if you're doing the Tiger Leaping Gorge. It has plenty of rooms, but still feels cosy. Our room had terrific views of the mountain and their "inspirational terrace" is the best place to drink that well-deserved ice cold Dali beer. Also nice to share stories with fellow hikers.

What surprised me is the little luxury of having a heated mattress pad. After a day walk, it was nice to... More

A highlight of travelling to to the Yannan Province of China is definitely a visit to the Tiger Leaping Gorge. For the active and adventurous, hiking the high trail of the gorge is not to be missed. A pleasant and timely place to stop is about six hours on, at the Half Way Guest House. The rooms are amazing, with... More
