Hotels With Gym in Yunnan, China

What a great hotel! We flew in late to Kunming from Zhuhai after exploring Hong Kong and Macau, and the hotel picked us up anyway at 00.00.  It is just about 15-minutes away from the airport and 45-minutes from the railway station. Highly recommend taking their breakfast if you will wake up on time. Unfortunately we didn’t and there’s not many markets around so we had to walk quite a bit to just buy some cookies. We just needed a place to sleep as we were catching a train to Dali the next day but this hotel was so good we wish we would’ve stayed just one more night to enjoy the room properly. The cleanliness was excellent, the products they provide in the shower were insanely good (even for my curly hair, which doesn’t happen often in China) and they also had restaurants and massages in the hotel.  The reception was open all night long and they were super nice even though we don’t speak any Chinese. Lovely hotel and especially for the price!

Superb location but initially the entrance to the hotel was difficult to locate. Entrance leading to a lift lobby with signage directing to level 7 where the main checkin lobby is inconspicuous. Other than this and at times, the slightly longer wait for the lift, stay has been most satisfying. Again great breakfast spread, attention to details and creature comforts, will make me consider staying with this chain for future travel to China

Just pulled up to the hotel and — plot twist — our room wasn’t ready. Shocking, I know. They’d just survived the Water Festival the day before, so the place was probably still half-drowned and hungover. The receptionist dude was an absolute saint. His female colleague, however… let’s just say she was clearly auditioning for the role of “Cranky Receptionist from Hell.” I’m 99% sure she was on her period and the other 1% was pure personality. Thankfully they upgraded us, which was nice. I never saw the original room, so for all I know they moved us from a broom closet to a slightly larger broom closet with a view. Speaking of which — the view? Legit fire. The room itself? Clean enough. Dry sink area: spotless. Toilet: sparkling. Then came the shower — oh boy. It started off promising, like a decent enough setup… until my girlfriend jumped in. Five minutes later the hot water ghosted her mid-shampoo like a bad Tinder date. One second she’s happily singing, next second she’s screaming like she just got waterboarded by ice cubes. I’ve stayed in fancier bathrooms in Mexican motels that still had bullet holes in the walls and more reliable plumbing. Breakfast was… breakfast. The kind of “basic” that makes you nostalgic for airplane food. But hey, they gave us more bottled water than a doomsday prepper’s basement, so points for hydration. We were only there for two nights — in and out like a cheap Tinder date. Would I go back? Big fat question mark with a side of “probably not even if they paid me.” ⁉️

Very satisfied with my stay, excellent value for money! The breakfast was especially healthy and affordable. The projector for movies was great, and the media content was quite up-to-date.

After two incredible days exploring Lijiang’s ancient cobblestone alleys and vibrant night markets, I have decided to extend my stay by one additional day. The charm of the Old Town, with its winding canals and timeless Naxi culture, has truly captured my heart. While the past two days allowed me to visit the iconic Black Dragon Pool and stroll along Sifang Street, I realize that one more day is needed to fully appreciate the surrounding beauty. Specifically, I take a day trip to the serene Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, whose peaks have been teasing me from a distance. A final evening wandering the quieter, lantern-lit lanes would also allow for a deeper connection to this UNESCO World Heritage site.

The only upside is the central location. This hotel is a renovation, sharing the building with another hotel, each taking half. There are only two usable elevators, and no electronic scales are provided. The elevator lobby gets crowded during peak hours. The main lobby is about the size you'd find in an economy hotel. The bedding isn't very comfortable. The windows are old, not refurbished, and the soundproofing is extremely poor. If noise bothers you, definitely do not stay here, as the hotel faces streets on three sides. You can also hear odd noises from the indoor water pipes, which is common in renovated old hotels. The staff at the entrance to the breakfast restaurant were warm and proactive. A 5-star rating feels a bit much, honestly.

For this price and service, I have to give full marks! The airport shuttle, late check-out, late-night noodles, and welcome amenities are all fantastic! Besides these, there are so many little details, like the warm messages in the elevator, the free water available at each floor's elevator entrance, and the morning wake-up service – truly excellent! Just one small suggestion: it would be great if guests could choose whether they want the wake-up service the next day (I understand it might be to ensure guests don't miss their scheduled shuttle). This time, I received a wake-up call without being asked beforehand, and I wasn't planning on getting up yet, haha!

The stay experience is superb, and all service staff must be praised! From the reception to the check-in, the whole process is smiling and intimate, take the initiative to help carry luggage, introduce facilities, respond promptly and patiently. The rooms are cleaned meticulously, and the needs can be solved quickly. The attitude is gentle and courteous, and it is really at home. The room is clean and comfortable, and the price is very high. Because this group of warm-hearted staff, I will definitely choose here next time! The hotel forgot to take pictures. It is very clean. It is very good. It is very close to the ancient city of Tea Horse. It is very convenient to play. It is equipped with two beautiful ancient cities.

Had a really pleasant stay at YIYUN Hotel in Lijiang. The host was extremely helpful and spoke English very well, which made communication very easy throughout the stay. The room was beautiful and comfortable, and the hotel’s architecture perfectly matched the vibes of Lijiang Ancient Town . Very aesthetic and authentic ! The location is also very convenient, right in front of the entrance to the old town. Although bags still need to be carried for a short distance because of the old town pathways, the hotel staff kindly helped us with the luggage which made everything smooth. Another plus point is that there are a few halal restaurants nearby, which was very convenient for us. Highly recommended if you’re visiting Lijiang!

This hotel is right next to the airport, which is super convenient for early morning flights. The shuttle bus starts at 5 AM and runs every 20 minutes. Sometimes it leaves 2-3 minutes early if it's full, so I'd recommend getting there a bit ahead of time. It's about a 10-minute ride from the hotel to the terminal, and the connection is seamless. The room was clean and tidy, and it offers good value for money. You can even see the airport terminal from your room.
