Ibis Styles Hotel (Kunming Nanping Pedestrian Street) ★★★
"I had a great time at this hotel. Staff are very friendly. There’s a play area that my kids can play at near the breakfast area at the lobby. They even provided my kids with kids slippers and tooth brushes. The hotel is strategically located at Nanping Street near to many tourist spots. Nancheng Mosque is about 11mins away by foot and there is a halal restaurant there. There’s also a washer and dryer that guests can use at the hotel. All in all, I have no complaints. Would recommend the hotel to families."

"An excellent stay! The staff were the friendliest we’ve encountered in China—always smiling, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. The hotel is spotless, beautifully designed, and feels modern and comfortable. The only downside is that it’s quite far from the city center, so getting to the main attractions takes some time. Other than that, I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again."

Jinbi Hall Hotel (Nanping Pedestrian Street Jinma Bijifang Branch) ★★★★
"Excellent hotel! We stayed here for one night during our honeymoon, and it was just perfevt. The staff were extremely friendly and kind, giving us a nice welcome and even flowers for our honeymoon. We had rented one room with an outside courtyard, and they even gave us the option to check other rooms to see which was our favorite. Our room had a Southeast Asian style courtyard with a wonderful soaking tub. Truly a 10/10 stay all around. The hotel is also excellently located for exploring the center of Kunming, with great shopping and food within short walking distance. Highly recommend!"

"The most pleasant place to stay on this trip completely exceeded psychological expectations. The environment of the homestay is quiet and comfortable, the decoration is simple and textured, and the details can feel the store's intentions. The room was cleaned very clean, the bedding was comfortable, the hot water was stable, the sound insulation was good, and the night was very stable. The landlord’s service is attentive and thoughtful, sending routes and check-in tips in advance, and also giving practical suggestions for playing and eating. The communication is smooth and does not deliberately disturb. The public areas are very beautifully maintained, and it is especially pleasant to sit down and rest in your leisure time.

Pumi Wenlin Panoramic Vacation Apartment (Dianchi Lake)
"Very suitable for a place to be in a daze. I used to know the whale island. I was surprised to find it here. I was the first choice for short-term travel. I like the blues at 8 o'clock in the hotel, the 180-degree window view, it just rained, Miss Sister sent a cup of 🍸 up, sitting on the terrace to taste wine 🍷 listen to the rain, don't be too beautiful There is a super-esthetic cafe downstairs, high-end and delicious coffee ☕️ You can have a little swipe at the bar at night. Sit and watch the sunset until the blues It was so relaxing for me, a man who's been spinning on the construction site I like the aesthetics of the hotel, I can see that I am serious about doing the hotel business. From the front desk lady to our logistics, I feel very good. The service is also great The coffee hotel that keeps shooting, very good 👍 Feeling like Dali Lijiang Ancient Town 😃"
DoubleTree by Hilton Kunming Airport
"The hotel room was clean and tidy, and Miss Sun at the front desk provided attentive service. It was a very comfortable stay, 5-star rating."
Kunming Papuman PAPMAN (Xishan Wanda)
"We stayed at Kunming PAPMAN Hotel Wanda for our first night in Kunming, and honestly, it was by far the best hotel of our entire stay. We only stayed for one night and didn’t have a chance to explore the surrounding area, but the hotel itself was exceptional. The hotel occupies two floors within a larger building, so there isn’t direct access to the hotel lobby from the ground floor. However, the hotel contacted us in advance with clear instructions on where to meet them at the car park. The staff came down to meet us, helped with all our luggage and brought us up to the lobby. This could have been an inconvenience, but the level of service completely made up for it. The staff were incredibly attentive, warm and genuinely went above and beyond from the moment we arrived. The hotel itself is beautifully designed. Every corner was thoughtfully decorated and incredibly photogenic, and the overall aesthetic was stylish without compromising on comfort. Even our room was beautifully designed, comfortable and very well equipped, with lots of thoughtful amenities included. The views from the hotel were also lovely. Unfortunately, it was raining during our stay, so we didn’t get to properly enjoy or photograph the rooftop pool, which was a little disappointing — but it gives us another reason to come back! One of our favourite additions was the photoshoot. The hotel was incredibly accommodating and allowed us to arrange a much earlier photoshoot slot because we were short on time. The experience was so good that we ended up purchasing additional photos beyond the three included with our room. It was such a fun and memorable experience. Our room rate also included afternoon tea, although we arrived at night and unfortunately didn’t have the opportunity to try it. However, supper was included and was honestly one of the highlights. It was a combination of semi-buffet and made-to-order dishes, with a surprisingly good variety. Everything we tried was delicious, and there was more than enough food. It was such a nice and unexpected inclusion, especially after travelling all day. We were also celebrating our child’s birthday during our stay, and the hotel had thoughtfully prepared a birthday cake and a little present for him in advance. It was such a sweet and thoughtful touch, and really made us feel welcomed and looked after❤️ Overall, we were genuinely impressed by this hotel. From the beautiful design and comfortable rooms to the incredible service, thoughtful inclusions, photoshoot and birthday surprise, everything felt very well thought out. The service in particular really stood out — the staff were attentive, friendly and incredibly helpful throughout our short stay. We only stayed one night and didn’t leave the hotel during our stay, so unfortunately we can’t comment much on the surrounding area or its convenience for exploring Kunming. But based purely on our experience at the hotel, we would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it."
Kunming Shangri-La Hotel
"The room layout was very well designed. The bed was a bit hard at first, but after we mentioned it, they immediately added an extra mattress, which made it much more comfortable! The staff were all very warm and polite! The executive lounge buffet was also great! The Chinese restaurant next door had delicious food! A very pleasant trip overall!"
Sofitel Kunming
Towering above the vibrant central business district, this exquisite five-star destination is recognised globally for its breathtaking panoramic city views and flawless French-inspired culinary dining experiences.
Bolanting Hotel (Kunming Changshui International Airport)
"This hotel, recommended by a friend, exceeded my expectations. The price was also great. The bathroom had a wet and dry separation, and featured the latest design with a heated toilet seat. The entire room was smart-controlled. The staff (both male and female) were very warm and polite, which was a big plus. Since we had a large group, the hotel arranged several cars for our airport transfer and even called in the morning to remind us. The lobby was spacious with a good variety of teas. Overall, it was a fantastic stay! I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Kunming!"
Colorful Yunnan • Petal | Sky View • Cloud Travel Hotel
"The room was clean and odor-free, and the sheets and duvet covers were spotless, clearly disinfected and changed every time. The room's Wi-Fi was fast, and the TV casting experience was good. I'll definitely come again."
Kai Wah Plaza Hotel
"We stayed for a short while as it was meant for a transit only. It’s 5 minutes from the train station which is convenient for us to head to Dali the next day. Hotel staff are friendly. Hotel are slightly dated but is still clean."
JEN Kunming by Shangri-La
"As someone who struggles with decisions, I'm so glad I picked this hotel—it was absolutely fantastic! It's right next to the subway entrance, making getting around incredibly convenient. The facilities are brand new, the bedding is super comfortable, and the breakfast spread is generous. Every staff member I encountered, from the greeter at the door to the front desk and housekeepers, was incredibly warm and attentive. This will definitely be my first choice next time I visit Kunming."
City Comfort Inn (Kunming Old Town by Nanping Pedestrian Street)
"The location is super convenient and the hotel facilities feel brand new, probably a very modern design. The staff were lovely and the cleanliness was great. Plus, the breakfast was delicious. Overall, highly recommended!"
G MANSION HOTEL
"The room was clean, the mattress was comfortable, and the soundproofing was decent. The breakfast offered a good variety, and they even had special bowls for kids, which shows great thoughtfulness! The service attitude was excellent; when we called for housekeeping at night, they arrived immediately, and we even received a small gift. We'll definitely choose this hotel again next time."
Kunming Changshui International Airport Shop
"I was on a business trip in Yunnan and had a layover at Kunming Changshui Airport when I stumbled upon the City Mark Hotel, which turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Its proximity to the airport is fantastic – less than six kilometers away. We only found out upon arrival that the hotel offers a complimentary shuttle service. After a quick call, a car was there to pick us up within ten minutes, which was incredibly convenient. The hotel service is excellent, with complimentary tea, drinks, and even ice cream available in the lobby. The staff were warm and attentive, and they even upgraded our room when we checked in. The room itself was spacious, spotless, and equipped with smart amenities. The surrounding area also has plenty of conveniences, from authentic Yunnan restaurants to souvenir shops. Overall, it’s great value for money! I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I fly through Kunming."
Zhongwei Green Lake Hotel
"This is an older hotel, but its location is absolutely fantastic! As soon as you step out of the lobby, you can see the beautiful lotus flowers in Cuihu Lake. When I checked in, a staff member brought a set of toiletries and small slippers for my child. I booked the cheapest twin room, and I didn't expect any special perks, but when I entered the room, I found fruit and snacks prepared by the hotel. In the evening, a staff member came to deliver goji berry and tremella soup along with three kinds of fruit. So thoughtful! The room's soundproofing was excellent, making for a very quiet night's sleep."
