Hotels With Gym in Yunnan, China

What a great hotel! We flew in late to Kunming from Zhuhai after exploring Hong Kong and Macau, and the hotel picked us up anyway at 00.00.  It is just about 15-minutes away from the airport and 45-minutes from the railway station. Highly recommend taking their breakfast if you will wake up on time. Unfortunately we didn’t and there’s not many markets around so we had to walk quite a bit to just buy some cookies. We just needed a place to sleep as we were catching a train to Dali the next day but this hotel was so good we wish we would’ve stayed just one more night to enjoy the room properly. The cleanliness was excellent, the products they provide in the shower were insanely good (even for my curly hair, which doesn’t happen often in China) and they also had restaurants and massages in the hotel.  The reception was open all night long and they were super nice even though we don’t speak any Chinese. Lovely hotel and especially for the price!

Good experience staying here. The staffs are kind and helpful, super convenient to get good food and nearby Kunming old street. I had great breakfast here. Doing laundry here, after set up for washing then just put a message to the helper, they will help to dry the clothes after washing and send to our room....super happy to stay here made my journey more enjoyable 😉

Just pulled up to the hotel and — plot twist — our room wasn’t ready. Shocking, I know. They’d just survived the Water Festival the day before, so the place was probably still half-drowned and hungover. The receptionist dude was an absolute saint. His female colleague, however… let’s just say she was clearly auditioning for the role of “Cranky Receptionist from Hell.” I’m 99% sure she was on her period and the other 1% was pure personality. Thankfully they upgraded us, which was nice. I never saw the original room, so for all I know they moved us from a broom closet to a slightly larger broom closet with a view. Speaking of which — the view? Legit fire. The room itself? Clean enough. Dry sink area: spotless. Toilet: sparkling. Then came the shower — oh boy. It started off promising, like a decent enough setup… until my girlfriend jumped in. Five minutes later the hot water ghosted her mid-shampoo like a bad Tinder date. One second she’s happily singing, next second she’s screaming like she just got waterboarded by ice cubes. I’ve stayed in fancier bathrooms in Mexican motels that still had bullet holes in the walls and more reliable plumbing. Breakfast was… breakfast. The kind of “basic” that makes you nostalgic for airplane food. But hey, they gave us more bottled water than a doomsday prepper’s basement, so points for hydration. We were only there for two nights — in and out like a cheap Tinder date. Would I go back? Big fat question mark with a side of “probably not even if they paid me.” ⁉️

I booked a taxi from the airport with Trip. The driver had to leave me at the entrance to the Night Market rather than to my hotel as he had no other choice. Took a while to work out where the hotel was as traders blocked the entrance. Fortunately and unexpectedly my data from Mongolia worked so I could use AMap and Google translate to get to the right place. Accessed through an entrance with 2 elephant statues. Easy to see in the daytime, tricky for first time at night. Each receptionist I met over the days were very helpful and friendly( via Google translate and WeChat). Lift to the room. Very lovely room with round bed and private bathroom. Very clean and comfie. Kettle and tea provided. Air con which I actually used, from the cold of Mongolia to the heat of Kunming. Reception area had seating so one could enjoy tea there (free) and meet others if one felt like it.

After two incredible days exploring Lijiang’s ancient cobblestone alleys and vibrant night markets, I have decided to extend my stay by one additional day. The charm of the Old Town, with its winding canals and timeless Naxi culture, has truly captured my heart. While the past two days allowed me to visit the iconic Black Dragon Pool and stroll along Sifang Street, I realize that one more day is needed to fully appreciate the surrounding beauty. Specifically, I take a day trip to the serene Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, whose peaks have been teasing me from a distance. A final evening wandering the quieter, lantern-lit lanes would also allow for a deeper connection to this UNESCO World Heritage site.

Kunming. A long name. A great location for a five-diamond hotel 😊 -----Definitely a great choice, given it's a Ctrip 5-diamond hotel. -----Four Points by Sheraton Kunming, City Center 🌈 👍1. Location. It's truly in the absolute center of Kunming. Downstairs is a pedestrian street, and the Golden Horse and Jade Rooster Archway is right next door (within a 5-minute walk). It's a paradise for food and snacks, with several local internet-famous spots (like roasted pancake, braised dishes, and Qiaoxiangyuan Rice Noodles). ❤️2. Service. Their service, from the front desk to housekeeping, is excellent. We booked different room types this time, and they specially upgraded our rooms to ensure we were all on the same floor. Thank you! ☕3. Breakfast. The hotel's breakfast offers a good variety, generally meeting our needs. There's still room for improvement. 👏4. On the third morning, some of our family members had to catch a train, and the hotel specially packed breakfast for us and left it at the front desk. Five-star service! 🙏5. We left some old clothes in the room that we didn't want, and the hotel specifically came to confirm whether we had forgotten them or if we intended to discard them. Very conscientious and responsible! 👏 👌6. The lobby is a bit small. The guest rooms seem to be on floors 23-28, offering fantastic panoramic views of the surrounding area. Truly excellent. 🤝Suggestion: The garment steamer provided releases steam very quickly once turned on, which could easily cause burns. I've already shared this feedback with the hotel. Summary: The price is a bit high during peak season, but it's a worthwhile choice during off-peak season. If I had to give a score, I'd give it a 90.

For this price and service, I have to give full marks! The airport shuttle, late check-out, late-night noodles, and welcome amenities are all fantastic! Besides these, there are so many little details, like the warm messages in the elevator, the free water available at each floor's elevator entrance, and the morning wake-up service – truly excellent! Just one small suggestion: it would be great if guests could choose whether they want the wake-up service the next day (I understand it might be to ensure guests don't miss their scheduled shuttle). This time, I received a wake-up call without being asked beforehand, and I wasn't planning on getting up yet, haha!

Right next to the Ancient Tea-Horse Town, we unfortunately missed the 7:30 PM dance show, but we did find some amazing grilled fish right by the hotel! This place offers incredible value for money; the room was comfortable, and the front desk staff was super helpful. They gave us tons of tips for exploring Xishuangbanna and suggested some great local activities. We didn't get to try the roasted meat rice noodles at the market because the owner was busy chatting with his girlfriend, haha, but the rice noodle breakfast from the stall pictured in photo 6 right outside was pretty good too!

Had a really pleasant stay at YIYUN Hotel in Lijiang. The host was extremely helpful and spoke English very well, which made communication very easy throughout the stay. The room was beautiful and comfortable, and the hotel’s architecture perfectly matched the vibes of Lijiang Ancient Town . Very aesthetic and authentic ! The location is also very convenient, right in front of the entrance to the old town. Although bags still need to be carried for a short distance because of the old town pathways, the hotel staff kindly helped us with the luggage which made everything smooth. Another plus point is that there are a few halal restaurants nearby, which was very convenient for us. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Lijiang!

This hotel is right next to the airport, which is super convenient for early morning flights. The shuttle bus starts at 5 AM and runs every 20 minutes. Sometimes it leaves 2-3 minutes early if it's full, so I'd recommend getting there a bit ahead of time. It's about a 10-minute ride from the hotel to the terminal, and the connection is seamless. The room was clean and tidy, and it offers good value for money. You can even see the airport terminal from your room.
