"Conveniently near (10mins) by car from the airport. Hotel provided airport shuttle services 24/7 which is what is needed. However location is far from the city (30mins by didi) so take note of that. Overall a pleasant place to stay for one night to transit."

"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!"

Atour Hotel Kunming Nanping Pedestrian Street Old Street

📍 No. 1 Dongfeng West Road, Wuhua District, Kunming
★★★★ 9.6 (5,292 reviews)

"We are writing this review while staying in this hotel now. We have traveled from Feilai Shangrila a 5-6 hours drive and a 4.5 hr train very tired and sleepy at 11pm but were greeted with good service at the reception and was happy that the reception staff said that she will UPGRADE us to a better room and also mentioned their best room. They also mentioned that they are doing this so that we can write them good review. We were so happy, but when we opened our so-called “better room” we were greeted with a room with an opened window and smelled like someone just smoked in the room. Though the room is big I checked what I have booked and realized that it is still the same size same type of room that I have booked no upgrade at all as mentioned by the staff. The so-called “smart toilet” can only flush in different way but no bidet washing function which are available in many other hotel. I was disappointed that if they mentioned there is an upgrade, then they should give me a better room but yet we were given a less than normal room that we have booked. We were disappointed and tired to ask to make any changes. By the way the toilet will flood after our shower. It’s mentioned in the features of this room to have rain shower but we are getting a spray shower that spray towards the glass door and cause water to flow toward the door making it slippery and dangerous. I will not recommend this hotel as there are many other better hotel that is cheaper yet offer better updated features in the room."

Moonlight Courtyard Hotel (Kunming Nanping Street and Near the train station)

Moonlight Courtyard Hotel (Kunming Nanping Street and Near the train station)

📍 No. 1 Courtyard, North Arcade, Dongxisita Pedestrian Street, Xishan District, Kunming
★★★★ 9.7 (4,315 reviews)

"Very nice hotel, we have stayed here twice now. There is so much attention to detail in the decor around the hotel and courtyard, it’s so peaceful you forget you are in the city. Staff are very kind and helpful, especially helping with luggage. There are many nice extras like tea tasting and afternoon tea but the breakfast was real star of the show - we recommend trying the Yunnan special ‘crossing the bridge rice noodles’. We will stay here again next time we are in Kunming."

Totoro Elf Hotel (Kunming Old Street Green Lake Branch)

Totoro Elf Hotel (Kunming Old Street Green Lake Branch)

📍 8th Floor, No. 30 Sanshi Street, Wuhua District, Kunming
★★ 9.3 (2,787 reviews)

"Overall, it was a short and pleasant stay in Kunming. The location of this hotel is 10/10- there’s a food street just outside the hotel (many halal options), famous milk tea chains (山山茶茶,上山喝茶), shopping malls, and 南屏街. The convenience of the location is its greatest selling point. The hotel was clean, slightly small but tolerable, and many amenities were included. Overall, it’s perfect for a short stay in Kunming."

Check-in at the front desk was super efficient, no long waits, and the staff were gentle, attentive, and very thorough with their service. The room was clean, tidy, and odor-free, with complete and well-functioning facilities, making for a comfortable and peaceful stay. The snacks at the hotel restaurant were delicious and offered great value for money. My stay was perfect, and I will definitely choose this hotel again next time. Highly recommended!"

Grand Park Kunming

Grand Park Kunming

📍 No. 20 Honghua Bridge, Wuhua District, Kunming
★★★★★ 9.4 (6,345 reviews)

"Solid old-school hotel with an incredible location right by the lake. For the price it’s decent tho I might stay somewhere a little nicer next time. Breakfast is acceptable but acoustics in the restaurant are horrible - super noisy. Also the gym is just bizarre but usable and they need to keep the AC on. Pool was under construction so you might wanna call ahead if that’s important to you."

Ouqiyuan Homestay (Dianchi Lake Haigeng Dam)

"First of all, the transportation is very convenient. Dianchi Lake is just a 2-minute walk away, and there are many seagulls. The room is also very quiet. The owner is very friendly and helpful, introducing what to do around the area and when to take photos. Seeing that we had elderly relatives and thought staying on the second floor would be inconvenient, they kindly arranged for us to stay in the courtyard on the first floor. The room is very clean, and the facilities are complete, all controlled by a smart speaker. The bedding is white and very clean. There are many places to eat nearby, which is very convenient. In the evening, there are many night market stalls, creating a great atmosphere, suitable for casual gatherings. Highly recommended."
