You will have a full week in Yunnan. I think you could spend two days in Kunming, one day in Dali(https://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/dali.htm) and the rest days in Lijiang(https://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/lijiang.htm) and Shangri-la(https://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/yunnan/shangri-la/). During these days, you could see the essence of each place following the traditional Yunnan Tours(https://www.travelchinaguide.com/tour/yunnan/)

In Kunming and Dali, these hotels close to scenicn spot or in city center should be good choice. As for Lijiang, highly recommend you stay in the Old Town.
