2-Star Hotels in Pu'er

The environment was very comfortable and relaxing. Beautiful view whwre you can see some of the sea of clouds. They give you disposable coverings for you to put on top of the fresh pillow bedding and mattress for extra hygiene which is a nice touch I haven't seen before. Bathroom is very clean, though there are only two toilets and two showers and two sinks, so do note that for busy season, but it wasn't an issue at all during my stay. They provided breakfast too, fresh milk the boss heated for me when I got up, and red sugar glutinous rice cakes wrapped in banana leaves (babas), and it was fun to get ready for the day with new friends on the balcony overlooking the village. I think the environment is very good for meeting new friends and other solo travelers- I arrived at the hostel randomly at the same time as three other girls, and we explored Manghong togetjer on the boss's recommendations for itinerary and sightseeing. And the next day the boss dropped us off at a tea roasting experience, and just as we were heading to Nuogan another girl from the hostel finished her tea roasting session, so we all went to Nuogan togetjer to play. The boss even helped load my luggage onto the shuttle bus so that it could pick me up at a sightseeing spot further down the mountain!

The guesthouse has a great location, perfect for those driving. The owner was incredibly welcoming. The rooftop terrace offers sunrise views 🌅, though there's a slight obstruction. The sea of ​​clouds is beautiful, definitely worth the trip. Breakfast has several options, all delicious 😋, showing the owner's dedication to the business. Thumbs up! 👍

I would love to recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Old Town of Chama. It may be a little tricky to find at first, but just follow Google Maps and you’ll get there easily. From the main gate of the Old Town, it’s only about a 5-minute walk. The hotel itself is quite new and very clean. The rooms are spacious, the beds are comfortable, and the bathroom facilities and appliances are all modern and high-quality. The soundproofing is excellent—although you might hear music and dancing outside, once inside the room it’s perfectly quiet. The location strikes a nice balance: slightly away from the hustle and bustle, yet just a few steps from plenty of food stalls and restaurants. What really makes this place special is the owners. They are a warm, welcoming family with parents, an elder sister, and two younger brothers. They don’t speak English, but communication was never a problem—we used Google Translate to chat over cups of delicious tea. If you need anything, you can always ask them. They are very friendly and genuinely do their best to help. แนะนำเลยค่ะสำหรับใครที่มาเที่ยวเมืองเก่า Chama โรงแรมอาจหายากนิดหน่อย แต่เดินตาม Google Maps มาก็เจอไม่ยาก จากประตูเมืองเก่าเดินเพียง 5 นาทีเท่านั้น ที่พักใหม่มาก สะอาด ห้องกว้าง เตียงนอนสบาย อุปกรณ์ในห้องน้ำและเครื่องใช้ไฟฟ้าทันสมัย คุณภาพดี ที่สำคัญเก็บเสียงได้ดีมาก ข้างนอกจะมีเสียงเต้นรำบ้าง แต่พอเข้าห้องแล้วเงียบสงบ เดินออกมาไม่กี่ก้าวก็มีของกินเพียบ สิ่งที่ประทับใจที่สุดคือเจ้าของโรงแรมค่ะ เป็นครอบครัวใหญ่ที่น่ารักและอบอุ่นมาก ถึงจะพูดภาษาอังกฤษไม่ได้ แต่ก็ไม่ใช่ปัญหาเลย ใช้ Google Translate คุยกันสบาย ๆ แถมยังได้ดื่มชาที่อร่อยมากอีกด้วย ถ้ามีปัญหาหรืออยากได้ความช่วยเหลือ พวกเขาพร้อมช่วยเต็มที่จริง ๆ

I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This hotel is newly renovated. Superbly clean and tidy. Complete amenities from the lobby to the room. Tables to drink tea and relax. Stable WiFi. I traveled from Luang Prabang (Laos) by train (about 5-6hours journey) and I checked in around 8pm and hotel owner (lady) was there, she politely asked if I had eaten when I said haven’t. After check in complete, she took me to a nearby noodle shop by her scooter and even helped me to order. Sat with me until I finish eating and brought me back to hotel, treated me with beer and Pu’er tea at the lobby. Her husband also joined. Very very very helpful and kind couple, also the staffs at the hotel. They even helped me to organize my itinerary for Pu’er. The husband even walked me to the bus stop and waited for me to get on the Nakeli Villlage Tour Bus. I stayed 2 nights, both nights I sat with them where they offered Pu’er tea (high quality ones, not the cheap ones). Offered beer. Both nights we sat for few hours chatting, although there were language barriers, translating app helped both sides. They offered breakfast too. In short, I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone. 12-15mins walking distance to the Simao Old Street. DiDi cars available almost all the hours. Bus stations nearby. Very peaceful surrounding. Take time to mingle with the owners and staffs, they’re extremely helpful.

We really had a wonderful stay here. It was one of the cleanest and most comfortable accommodations we experienced in Yunnan during our one month trip. If I had to rate our stays, this would be the one I give 10 out of 10. Our room had a wooden balcony overlooking the neighborhood, a place where I truly felt at home. Sitting there quietly, observing daily life and enjoying the view, made the stay feel especially peaceful and intimate—truly something special. The owner was genuinely caring and very attentive to our well-being. The family runs their own tea business and also sells their tea at very fair prices. I especially loved the noodles prepared by the mother. You can add freshly prepared spices according to your own taste. They also offer eggs, sweet potatoes, and corn, all served in a very hygienic and beautifully presented way. For breakfast, there were also other options such as cookies and fresh fruit, so nothing was missing. It was such a pleasure to return in the evening, enjoy a cup of tea with the owner, and chat with other guests. If you want to experience Bulang hospitality while still enjoying Western-level comfort and cleanliness, this is the perfect place.

Even though I only stayed for one night, it was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. The family running the hotel were incredibly welcoming, inviting me for Pu’er tea while checking in and while waiting for my Didi upon checkout. They also provided a safe space for me to store my luggage while I explored the nearby area post-check out. The hotel is perfectly located within the Ancient Tea Horse Road area, 1 minute away from the picturesque tea horse archway (the entry point for a beautiful tea plantation tourist area and the site for a daily dance performance at 19:30). The hotel has also teamed up with a local restaurant to provide a free breakfast coupon - it was fantastic local fare (a “make your own” dry noodle bar) and a very welcome start to a hot day. Suffice to say, if you’re looking for a hotel in Pu’er I highly recommend you stay here.

Extremely satisfied! The place was clean and tidy, and the room was immaculate. The service was exceptional; it's rare to encounter such a wonderful owner who truly anticipates and addresses guests' needs. Absolutely fantastic! It's also quite close to the station, and the owner was very prompt with pick-up and drop-off, couldn't ask for more. Definitely a five-star review, highly recommend staying here. This is my genuine experience and feedback. Wishing the owner a thriving business!

Foreign friends: don't stay here. The worst experience I've ever had trying to check in - and I've travelled to many remote places in Yunnan over the past six years. Staff has no clue about rules and regulations, even though I showed them the most up to date rules for foreigners travelling in China. They tried to stop me from leaving the hotel because they couldn't figure out how to check me in, even though I was very hungry and tired and wanted to eat and go to bed early. They came to my room at 10pm but still couldn't figure out how to check me in. And here is the worst: at 8am the manager opened the door of my room and walked in without knocking. There was no inside lock or chain. Luckily I wasn't in the shower. Awful place that made me feel extremely unwelcome as a foreigner. They made me feel like a criminal because of their incompetence and stupid actions. Very different from most places where staff is helpful even if it's a bit more complicated.

I accidentally followed the celebrity Yu Qiuyu to stay at the Yuanyuan Inn. It has a cultural atmosphere and a convenient transportation. The boss and his wife are very good. They help you guide Jingmai Mountain and easily play and punch in. It is worth it.

All the reviews are true, but it’s not the wooden building that causes it.  Yes, it is very loud and you hear everyone. We’ve stayed in other fully wooden places, it’s worse here. Maybe not the wood but the guests are the problem. Loud Chinese people, walking the stairs with the heaviest pace you can imagine. Maybe help the other guests by hanging some warnings on the stairs: please be mindful for the other guests when walking to your room.  Also loud Chinese tourist on the square below. Not only while eating they scream all over the place, also with the tea ceremony nobody asks them to please stop talking after 23:00/24:00. We were up till 02:00AM because of tea drinking Chinese people at the fire. We stayed in the suite, which is located above the fire pit. Maybe the other rooms are less noisy. At 7AM each morning, somebody ran down the stairs. We think it’s the staff. It wakes you up through your earplugs.  The staff is OK. They are very shy, not rude. They could be more pro active though as we didn’t feel like they wanted to do something.. which is different to rude but also not very friendly.  The other villages around are way bigger and less cozy than Wengji. Also, with this guesthouse being just next to the town, it was perfect to escape the tourists most of the time. We didn’t find other accommodations in Wengji with the same aesthetics as Shishi guesthouse so we can’t recommend other places better than this. Maybe if the guesthouse would invest in trying to keep the noise down under the various guests, with text signs or with clearer house rules (fire pit), the noise problem wouldn’t be as bad.  Maybe if they tried to enthusiast their staff more and keep them from watching Chinese drama shows on their phones all day, they would be a bit more welcoming.  We’ve met a lot of amazing people in Wengji, it’s definitely not the locals that have this behaviour.  Lastly, the suite has a cubicle bathroom in the room, they really don’t clean this well. It smells very bad and just feels dirty all over.  For comfort this place is too expensive, for the location and aesthetics you won’t find better options nearby.
