Hotels With Pools in Yunnan, China

This hotel is more of an Airbnb style where after you check in they bring you to your private apartment which is awesome. We got a free upgrade and had a massive room with a living area, seperate kitchen, two full bathrooms, and 4 seperate bedrooms with cozy beds. We also had a massive balcony with amazing views of the Jinhong area that were stunning during the day and especially at night (see attached photos). The staff were also super helpful and really responsive in terms of helping us with questions and recommending delicious local restaurants that were off the beaten path. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are with a group of friends or a larger party. It’s clean and super great value.

I wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank the owner for the wonderful BBQ Doufu gathering they organized for all the guests. It was such a thoughtful and kind gesture, and it truly made our stay even more memorable. The effort they put into bringing everyone together, preparing the delicious food, and creating such a warm and welcoming atmosphere did not go unnoticed. It was a joy to meet the other guests, share stories, and enjoy the fantastic BBQ Doufu in such a beautiful setting. Their hospitality and attention to detail made the evening truly special. This homestay is not just a place to stay—it’s an experience filled with warmth, care, and a sense of community. We are so grateful for the memories we’ve made here, and the BBQ gathering was the perfect highlight of our time. I will definitely recommend this homestay to others and hope to visit again in the future. Tan Wee Liang

The hotel staff were all very kind, and there was even a dedicated butler. We received a complimentary upgrade to a family room, free printing services, and complimentary breakfast. The hotel is directly across from the East Gate of Daguan Park, so in the morning, we could open the window and watch the seagulls flying over the park from our room. After breakfast, it was a very short walk to the park to feed the seagulls, and the hotel thoughtfully provided bread for feeding them. This spot for watching seagulls is very quiet, uncrowded, and allows for close-up viewing. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay.

Beautiful views - the rooms are simple but great for a trip to the rice terraces. We had a problem with the restaurant food on the first night but the problem was promptly resolved by the manager which was much appreciated. The goat hotpot did not come with slice d meat for cooking as expected. Instead all meat was already in the pot (quantity not enough for 2 people as mainly fat and bones which I did not enjoy eating). However the manager offered to remedy this problem by presenting a plate of sliced meat. This show good attitude in resolving problems. Highly recommended.The following evening he made good recommendations for dinner and we enjoyed the food very much.

Starting from good things. Room with private hot spring was nice and clean and bed and bed linen was great. Despite hot spring pool was leaking and needed to refill constantly. But no problem with that if water supply is turned on and you can operate yourself with valves. Hotel staff recommended many places for eating outside. Thanks for that! We arrived before check in time and asked to spend our time near the pool area which was not problem. When I was looking for toilet then lady from shop told to me that I should go outside the territory and use toilet which is for camper van people. And it was not toilet but old school ditch. Fortunately it was cleaned. Lot of things are in real life different than in pictures what you can find in web pages. Many hot springs was closed, on site was not operating restaurants and bars. Only you can order food from app or go outside. Area is under the airplanes take off route that means in daytime lot of noise. About 6pm domestic water supply was turned off and situation lasted until our leaving next day about 11am. Hotel staff wrote that if you want to use toilet I should let them know and they will find a solution. No shower or washing. Breakfast was simple. In the breakfast area is operational coffee machine but for some reason lady behind the table told that not possible and drink cold pre brewed ice coffee? I hope that it’s not connected with lack of water supply. Machine may be filled with purified bottle water not local tap water.

Service: The service was excellent. They gave me a free upgrade to a river view room and extended my check-out by an hour. They even provided brown sugar souvenirs and a fruit platter. Cleanliness: Overall, the cleanliness was good. The bedsheets and toiletries were clean, but the daily rubbish wasn't completely cleared during my stay. Environment: The environment is beautiful and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle. It's right next to the Lancang River, offering a truly relaxing view.

A great weekend!! Caught up with Mother's Day, I took my mother to rest for a day. I felt super relaxed from the moment I entered the hotel. The environment is beautiful and the green vegetation covers a large area. Before check-in, Miss Niki (?) contacted and arranged a room upgrade. I am super grateful🥹You can see the jacaranda and blue sky outside from the balcony and feel the wind. The quality of the double breakfast and lunch rice noodle set in the set is absolutely impeccable. There are various snacks. You can try all kinds of small bowls. Paoruda is the best😋The lemon and sour spicy chicken feet in the set are super delicious. I also went to the Chinese restaurant to take a portion home before leaving. Thanks to every staff member I met, including but not limited to Brother Cai Liping at the front desk, Brother Gu Dezhong in the Western restaurant, and a small but energetic lady in the Chinese restaurant (I met her at noon on 5.9/10). I hope I didn’t write everyone’s name wrong🙈 See you next time! ! Definitely come again!

We stayed at this hotel for two nights when we first arrived in Lijiang, then after one night at a B&B, we came back. For the first two nights, we had a suite, and the hotel arranged a room with a partial view of the snowy mountains, which was great. For the last night, we booked a deluxe snow view room, and the view was indeed better and more direct. In the morning, you could watch the 'Golden Mountain in the Sunrise' right from the balcony. The room was also spacious enough, with a reasonable layout, perfectly suited for us traveling with a child and lots of luggage. The hotel staff were very enthusiastic; someone came to help with our luggage right at the entrance and even delivered it to our room. The front desk staff were also very efficient with check-in, and the breakfast staff helped us find a table. All in all, it was a very good experience.

The hotel staff had an excellent service attitude! They helped me upgrade to a larger room. The guy at the front desk even helped me carry my super heavy luggage up to the second floor when I arrived, and pushed it for me when I left—I'm so grateful! The front desk lady with short hair was also very kind, always smiling gently and speaking softly. Communication was always easy if I had any questions. The hotel's hygiene was great, and the view from the window was quite beautiful. The guesthouse had a cozy and atmospheric vibe. It was completely quiet at night, though there was a little noise during the day. They also gave me a lot of fruit (more than the welcome fruit amenity at five-star hotels!). The location was also very convenient, close to everything. If you're going to the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, you can take a bus from the nearby tourist distribution center (25 RMB). There are also many makeup and styling shops around, and the Starlight Night Market is very close. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and I will definitely come back!

My stay at the MGallery Dongfengyun Hotel in Mile was a delightful surprise overall. First, the most striking impression: the environment is truly exceptional. The design is unique, beautifully integrating local artistic flair. Both the public areas and the rooms feel incredibly comfortable and relaxing. The service was also spot on; the staff were warm and responsive, always quick to help with any requests. The hotel's proximity to the Dongfengyun scenic area is a huge plus. They even offer free shuttle buggy service, making trips to and from the attraction convenient and hassle-free. However, a minor drawback is its somewhat secluded location. There aren't many decent restaurants nearby, so finding food outside the hotel can be a bit inconvenient. Fortunately, the hotel's own dining options are quite good, with a satisfying variety and taste, so eating on-site was a good experience. One more thing to mention is the hotel's complimentary photography service. They offer 5 free photos, but if you want more, you have to pay extra, and the prices are quite high. It didn't feel like great value for money, and I honestly think it would be better and more cost-effective to hire a freelance photographer beforehand. This was a bit disappointing. Overall, considering the fantastic environment, excellent service, and convenient location near the scenic area, it's highly recommended, especially for those looking for a quiet getaway and planning to focus their visit on the Dongfengyun area.
