WingEEComing to Kunming Paperman, I realized just how competitive hotel service can be!
Let's start with the human touch:
1. They set up a WeChat group for butler service; upon arrival, the butler met me downstairs.
2. A beautiful welcome flower basket.
3. Whether I was out or in the evening, they'd let me pre-select afternoon tea snacks and deliver them to my room.
4. When I accidentally scraped my foot outside, they quickly provided iodine swabs and Yunnan Baiyao adhesive bandages.
5. I unknowingly left my bracelet in the restaurant in the morning; when I reported it at 10 PM, the butler team returned it to my room in 13 minutes – incredibly efficient and well-organized.
6. They proactively offered daily linen and duvet cover changes.
7. Every time I passed the front desk or saw hotel staff, they were always smiling and greeted me warmly.
8. Breakfast was available until 1 PM, plus afternoon tea and late-night snacks, truly allowing for sleep flexibility and no worries about food.
Now for the hardware and details:
1. Full set of caviar toiletries – excellent to use.
2. The vanity came equipped with cotton facial towels, mouthwash, earplugs, etc.
3. Dyson hairdryer; after washing my hair with caviar shampoo, it was so smooth I didn't even need a comb.
4. Truly blackout electric curtains.
5. The latex memory foam pillow was genuinely comfortable.
6. Both the overhead rain shower and wall-mounted shower could be selected to run simultaneously with a button; the temperature was stable and water flow abundant, making showering a real pleasure.
7. The rooftop infinity pool is great for photos, and the design and decor of the restaurant and floors are thoughtfully done...
There's so much more I could write; it's got everything a star-rated hotel room service should have. The only flaw was an uncontrollable power outage in the evening, leading to the elevators being out of service for several tens of minutes? But all things considered, that's completely insignificant. I love this level of competitive hotel service, and I'll definitely choose Paperman again next time I'm in Kunming!

Guest UserNot really a youth hostel but someone's high rise flat filled with beds on 7th floor. Excellent location near to railway station but difficult to find on the map and you need to ring the owner who doesn't speak English. I've added the photo of the entrance doorway and amended map but you still need to ring the owner to get access. Cramped, only one bathroom for a lot of people, but kitchen with kettle and living area, good budget accommodation for a night, I wouldn't stay here longer.

HuiyalanI stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. I was quite hesitant before choosing it, especially after reading about the negative elevator incident, which made me really worry about safety. So, every time I took the elevator during my stay, I was on edge. The main reason I decided to stay was for the hot springs and swimming pool, as it's been raining a lot in Kunming recently, and I figured we'd just enjoy the hotel. Honestly, I wasn't particularly impressed with the service, and the facilities are quite old, very old. If it weren't for the constant rain and traveling with a child, I probably wouldn't have chosen this hotel. Especially after visiting Fuxian Lake, the comparison really highlighted its shortcomings.

Guest UserThe hotel's location is excellent, right outside Kunming Old Street, making it very convenient for exploring and dining. The overall ambiance is elegant and charming, the rooms are clean and fresh, and the bedding is comfortable. It's a peaceful retreat amidst the bustling city. The front desk service was great, and check-in was efficient. The noodles for breakfast were delicious. It's also not far from the pedestrian street, making it a top choice for travel and sightseeing. The value for money is good. The Wi-Fi was a bit slow, and I hope they can improve that. My stay here in Kunming was a fantastic experience!

The hotel facilities are a bit old, but well-maintained. The environment is elegant, quiet, and comfortable, and the staff are quite enthusiastic. Overall, the experience was decent. However, perhaps because it was raining, the cushions in the courtyard were all put away and not replaced before guests checked in. The water features in the courtyard villa were turned off, and there were dead leaves inside, making the whole courtyard look a bit desolate, which affected the stay. The price of over 3,000 yuan per night felt a bit overpriced. The garden hot spring was very comfortable and beautiful; I would come back just for that. As for the crossing-the-bridge noodles priced at over 200 yuan, I wouldn't recommend trying them if you're a local. 😅

This is our second time staying at this hotel in Kunming, and both times we've chosen it for my elderly parents. It's incredibly convenient for visiting Dianchi Lake, and it's been recently renovated, looking even better than before with a charming, antique feel. It's very photogenic! The owner, front desk staff, and concierge were all incredibly helpful. The first room wasn't quite comfortable, so they immediately moved us to another. My parents have trouble sleeping, and they were very accommodating, switching us to a twin room. The owner even turned out to be from the same hometown as us and kindly offered free tea. We felt very at ease during our three-day stay. It's also convenient for visiting Shilin (Stone Forest). I highly recommend staying here for your travels.

Guest UserThe inn's location is incredibly convenient, and it's spotlessly clean with no strange odors in the rooms. The common areas are also very spacious, featuring a study zone, dining area, a bar area, and a beautiful rooftop garden. You get a fantastic view overlooking Jinma Biji, which is stunning. The staff are super friendly and welcoming. I fell in love with this place on my first stay and will definitely be back!

Anonymous UserThe room was very clean. The location is super easy to find, about a ten-minute walk from the exit of Kunming Railway Station. There's a wide variety of food options nearby, all very affordable.

Guest UserThe room is spacious and well-designed, with plenty of space for luggage and other belongings. The hotel is located in the heart of the old city, with many restaurants in the adjacent mall. For snacks, you can take a short walk to Kunming Old Street. The front desk staff, particularly GIN, was very professional and helpful. When I asked about buying tickets, he repeatedly reminded me to make sure I bought tickets for Kunming Station and not to get it mixed up, as the two high-speed rail stations can be quite confusing.

Guest User
Finally found this incredibly unique ethnic guesthouse! The overall decor blends various minority ethnic elements, and the intricate decorations mean every photo you take turns out atmospheric. The room was spotlessly clean, with comfortable bedding and complete amenities. The guesthouse offers authentic Yunnan rice noodles and 'Guanguan' milk tea, both with genuine flavors. The front desk service was thoughtful and attentive, always responding promptly to any issues. The location is excellent, making it convenient for getting around and shopping. It's a peaceful oasis in a bustling area, quiet and not noisy, allowing for a good rest and relaxation. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kunming!
