3-Star Hotels in Yuxi

It is a nice and clean place, with large rooms and pleasant, traditional-looking but modern design. If the location was not so remote from practically everything (except the industrial environment around it), the overall impression would have been much more powerful. But the location makes sense if you want to stay anywhere between the larger urban area of Yuxi and its southern suburban zones, where you may experience the popular lifestyle and annual summer festivities (such as Torch Festival) of Yu people and other Chinese national minorities inhabiting this region.

The entry is so calming. A nice open space with plants all around. The Chinese couple owning the Hotel were very sweet even though we couldn’t converse with them (they didn’t speak English and we can’t speak Chinese). They let us store our two bicycles in the house. The room is large and the bathroom is massive. There’s a bit of road noise with the windows open (on the second level). There’s no lift. They owner walked us to a neighbouring restaurant which was very nice. In the morning they both saw us off on our ride. 

We are American expats living in Hong Kong and came to Kunming area for our school’s Easter holiday. We cannot say enough about this beautiful hotel, located in a picturesque village along the northeastern coast of Fuxian Lake. Positives: 1. the location is AMAZING. The village itself feels very Mediterranean and houses over 30 boutique-style hotels. 2. This specific hotel has the most beautiful Chinese garden. My husband and I spent ample time just sitting in the garden chatting and looking at the beautiful flowers. They also have a basket swing our kids played on. 3. The design of the hotel is beautiful…..thatched roofing and wooden doors on the outside, reeded ceilings with wooden beams on the inside…..it all looked so warm and lovely. 4. Our specific room was a 2-level lake view family suite that had a terrace outside the upper level bedroom (which was the “master”). The view from this upper bedroom was so gorgeous….prime view of the lake. 5. The bathroom in our suite was modern and seemed to have some kind of heating fan over the shower area which was an added bonus. 6. The breakfast was traditional Chinese style. By this time, we were at the end of our trip and were a bit tired of rice noodles for breakfast (we are used to western-style breakfasts), but as soon as we tasted this hotel’s rice noodles, it was easy to forget we were tired of them. They were delicious! The owner also served us steamed milk and some kind of sweet steamed bread. It was all very tasty! Negatives: I truly do not have any. And I usually always have something I critique about hotels. But this place was truly a 5-star stay for us. It was gorgeous and the owner was so sweet.

I highly recommend Joy hotel. I stayed at the Jia Yue Deluxe Suite and it's great. Two spacious rooms with all amenities. The hotel service is excellent. The front desk personnel are very kind and helped me throughout my stay. They even helped me change my booking and get a refund from trip.com. The hotel's specialty is that it offers both breakfast and lunch as part of your stay. The restaurant's two female chefs are really charming and they prepare the most delicious food. The only drawback of the hotel is the lack of a laundry room, but there are several laundry shops not far away. In sum, I had a lovely stay. Hope to get back soon 🙏🏻

5-Star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A truly wonderful hotel, impeccably curated down to every detail, from the color palette to the lighting, everything feels thoughtfully designed. The manager was incredibly kind and welcoming from the start, offering us local teas and explaining their origins with genuine passion, which we really appreciated. Breakfast is simple yet very good, with fresh, well-chosen products. Highly recommended: elegant atmosphere, impeccable hospitality, and an attention to guests that truly makes a difference. We’ll gladly return!

Extremely satisfied. The front desk service was excellent. The room was spacious and bright, with no unpleasant odors. The soundproofing was superb. Even the pillows were thoughtfully provided, with two thicknesses. As someone with neck problems, I preferred the thinner pillow. The hotel is right across from the lakeside park. It's very close to Nie Er Music Square, about a 10-minute walk, and also convenient to Jiulongchi Park, a 15-minute walk to the bus stop. A taxi ride isn't far either. This will definitely be my first choice next time I visit Yuxi.

The room was quite satisfactory, and the service was also good. Although the projector could not be used, the customer service was actively solving the problem, and the projector might be fixed before the next wave of tourists checked in. The biggest complaint was that on the first floor, the balcony door opened directly into the grass on the roadside, and the privacy was relatively poor. It was necessary to lock the doors and windows and draw the curtains when checking in at night. I hope that in the future, the hotel customer service can inform tourists in advance before they check in.

The transportation is relatively convenient. It is just a short walk across from Moon Bay and not far from the Fossil Museum. The lady at the front desk is also very welcoming. The room is neat and clean. There is a large window that can see the whole view of Fuxian Lake. It is very beautiful. The bed is also very soft and comfortable. The lighting in the room is very soft. We also rent a car downstairs. It is also convenient for visiting the surrounding scenic spots. .

Very suitable hotel for leisure vacation, the front desk lady has a good service attitude, I can't find the parking lot, she patiently guided me to park, the lake view of the room is simply amazing, the floor-to-ceiling windows are very beautiful and you can see the whole Fuxian Lake (recommend the 180-degree full lake view room), there are many restaurants downstairs, it is very convenient to eat, the Moon Bay scenic area opposite has a Sanya feel, after checking in, ask the hotel for a park card and you can enter the park for free, there is a white sand beach in the park where you can take your children to play in the sand, and take pictures. It is recommended to travel off-peak, the cost performance is really high, this time I stayed in the most cost-effective hotel in Fuxian Lake.

This stay experience exceeded expectations. It is convenient to go out to eat and go to Fuxian Lake. It is also very close to Fuxian Lake. It can be walked for a few minutes. The first floor of the hotel is the restaurant. You can eat when you are lazy. The room is clean and the bed is sleeping. And the scenery outside the room is also good, you can see the beautiful Fuxian Lake, the front desk service is also thoughtful, and the hygiene and cleaning are also timely and intimate. The overall environment is quiet and the price is very high. I will continue to choose this one next time. I really recommend it. The first and second pictures are the scenery outside the room.
