Hotels with balcony in Kunming

"I stayed for 5 days this time, and the overall experience was much better than I expected. The hotel is right inside the pedestrian street, surrounded by bustling businesses. It's super convenient for dining, shopping, and getting a taxi. Right behind it is Shuncheng Shopping Mall, which has lots of great restaurants, and I even managed to snag a new colorway of Salomon sneakers there! In front, there's another mall where you can buy the famous BA bagels downstairs. It’s about a 10-minute walk to Kunming Old Street, and another 15 minutes further will get you to Cuihu Lake – perfect for tourists or those staying long-term. Guest rooms are on the 5th and 6th floors. You need a key card to access them, and food deliveries are brought up by a robot, which makes you feel quite secure. The only minor issue is that because the hotel is on a pedestrian street, taxis can't drop you right at the entrance. You have to walk about 50 meters with your luggage, but the path isn't difficult, so a standard suitcase is fine. The room was very clean and much more spacious than I imagined. All three of my suitcases could be laid out completely without any problem. The room type I booked even had a sofa and a small table, which was perfect as I worked there for all 5 days and didn't even need to find a coffee shop. The bedding was very comfortable, leading to a good night's sleep. The amenities were also quite comprehensive, with a 'Xiaodu' smart assistant, which is great for lazy people 😄. Plus, the room surprisingly had a refrigerator, which was a huge bonus! Aside from mineral water, they also provided a can of Coke and a can of Sprite every day. Housekeeping replenished drinks, tea bags, coffee, and disposable toiletries daily, regardless of whether you’d used them all the day before. As a result, after my 5-day stay, I still had 6 cans of soda left when I checked out! One small problem was that there was no direct way to contact the front desk from the room. There was no phone, and the Xiaodu assistant couldn't call the front desk. I had to use my own mobile phone or go upstairs to the front desk in person. The soundproofing of the room itself was actually pretty good, but it just so happened that during my stay, some other guests often came back very late and were talking and making noise in the hallway. Eventually, around the third day, I couldn't take it anymore and called the front desk. They did come up to check and handle the situation, which was pretty good. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit to Kunming."

"The staff were warm and attentive, and the environment was quite clean. The self-service bottled water was a thoughtful touch. There are good cafes right downstairs and in the surrounding area. They even gave us a small gift when we checked out. Highly recommend!"

"What I loved most about this hotel was the spacious room. As soon as you open the door, you can see the airport terminal, and the floor-to-ceiling windows give it a grand and luxurious feel. There's plenty of parking too, which is very convenient. The bathroom, especially, was fantastic with its three-section wet/dry separation – it was so comfortable to use. The room also thoughtfully included a mini-fridge and a safe, and while I didn't use them, it was nice to know they were there. Plus, there were complimentary bottled waters and local Yunnan small-grain coffee, which was a great touch! The breakfast was also very rich, with a wide variety of delicious, clean, and hygienic options. The hotel is super close to the airport terminal, and they even offer a free shuttle starting at 5:00 AM. If you miss the shuttle, it's only a 20-minute walk at most. I'll definitely stay here again next time I fly; it's just so convenient! 👍👍"

"My recent stay at the Holiday Inn Kunming Railway Station, during a layover in Kunming, exceeded my expectations. The hotel's location is excellent, very close to Kunming Railway Station. It's just an 8-minute walk with luggage, which is incredibly convenient for travelers catching a train, saving a lot of hassle and travel time. Upon checking in, I happened upon the hotel's grand opening event. The staff were warm and attentive, even giving out lovely small gifts, which really made me feel valued. Walking into the room, my first impression was how clean and tidy it was; every corner was spotless, and there were no strange odors. The bedding was soft and comfortable, providing a great night's rest, and the toiletries were also of good quality, offering a pleasant experience. The room layout was practical, and the sleeping environment was quiet, allowing for a peaceful rest after a long journey. Considering the location, cleanliness, and service, it's perfectly suited for a temporary stay during a railway transfer. If I have another layover in Kunming, I'll definitely prioritize this hotel again, and I highly recommend it to anyone needing to catch a train nearby."
