Echarm Hotels in Kunming

Had a wonderful stay! The room was impeccably clean, spacious, and the mattress was extremely comfortable. Check-in at the front desk was quick, and the staff were very polite and welcoming. Conveniently located with easy transportation, yet quiet enough for a great night's sleep. Highly recommend and will definitely stay here again!

Traveling solo, I spent a long time searching before finally choosing this hotel. I contacted the hotel before boarding and gave them the driver's phone number. As soon as I landed, I got in touch—you can wait until you have your luggage before calling him. The driving was smooth and fast, haha! I registered for the airport shuttle for the next day, and the receptionist even called to remind me, and it was very punctual. The room was bigger than expected, and the bed was very soft. When closing the window, make sure to latch both locks; I didn't pay attention and only closed one, which is why I thought it was a bit noisy. The air conditioning is a bit loud, so if you're a light sleeper, I'd still recommend bringing earplugs. Cleanliness and everything else were quite decent, and the shower water pressure was strong.

Yi Fang Hostel offers a soothing haven for weary travelers. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, equipped with intuitive and convenient amenities, and the front desk staff are warm and attentive. The morning meal is delicious, paired with picturesque views just outside the window. A brief stay here allows you to embrace a slow-paced tranquility. I will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit.

This is my second time in Kunming, and I chose Echarm Hotel again. The experience was even better than last time! The hotel's location is super easy to find, and it's only about a ten to fifteen-minute drive to attractions like Yunnan Nationalities Village, Dianchi Lake, Haiyan Village, and the museum, making getting around incredibly convenient. It's also very quiet; at night, with the windows closed and the AC on, you barely hear any outside noise, so I slept wonderfully. The room was spotlessly clean, the carpet had no strange odors, and the bedding and towels were soft and comfortable. The large floor-to-ceiling window offered a lovely green view, which was very therapeutic. The facilities were complete and worked well; the toiletries had a pleasant scent, and even the disposable dental kit was of good quality. The front desk and housekeeping staff were all very warm and friendly. They even proactively recommended the hotel's complimentary afternoon tea. The coffee is freshly ground, and with the ice machine, I could DIY an iced Americano that was super refreshing. There were also four or five kinds of exquisite small pastries, which tasted great. I genuinely recommend this hotel to friends visiting Kunming, and I'll definitely stay here again next time! Plus, the front desk lady was beautiful and kind-hearted, really great, super gentle, and had fantastic service!

The price (208 RMB, about €25) and the central location—near Kunming Central Station and just a 45-minute metro ride from the airport—led me to book Echarm Hotel for one night. Check-in was quick, and the staff were friendly and efficient. They accommodated our requests for two extra pillows and a room away from the elevator to ensure quietness. Complimentary coffee and tea are available in the lobby. We did not opt for breakfast, which is optional and costs 29 CNY per person. The room was clean and equipped with a kettle, three types of tea, instant coffee, and two bottles of water, although you can request additional bottles both in the hall and near the elevator exit. There is only one elevator, so you might have to wait or share the lift occasionally. The area is central and lively, very close to Dashuying metro station (I recommend Exit A as it’s on the same side of the street). There is also a local night market nearby (watch out for passing motorcycles and cars), located near the old tram tracks, continuing from Exit C of the metro. Nothing to complain about—the room was perfect. The only downside is the absence of a minibar, but this seems common in many 3- and 4-star hotels in China.

Cost-effectiveness: When traveling, the first choice of accommodation is relatively cost-effective, and the environment is comfortable. His hotel is mid-range and a national chain, which is very reassuring. Hygiene: The hygiene of the room is what I care most about when staying in a hotel. When I arrived at the hotel and checked in, I felt more warm when entering the room. The hotel hygiene was also relatively clean and tidy, so I felt relieved to check in. I like the hotel.

The location is conveniently located with easy access to transportation and plenty of barbecue options nearby. In fact, there are plenty of food options all around, so you won't go hungry. The hotel is clean and the rooms are tidy; I was satisfied with my stay. The hotel breakfast was also good, with a wide selection, and I could eat my fill in a hygienic way. The front desk and room service staff were very welcoming and helpful, quickly addressing any requests. There's also parking available; it seems to be in the backyard since I didn't have a car. It's quite nice, and for the price, it's definitely worth it!
