"Choosing the right accommodation is so important when visiting Kunming! This hostel's location is a huge plus – it's close to Nanping Pedestrian Street, and within walking distance to Cuihu Lake and Wenhuaxiang, making it super convenient to get back after exploring the night markets. Plus, there are all sorts of snacks and convenience stores right downstairs. The cleanliness is excellent, with tidy beds and a stable hot water supply for showers. The service is thoughtful, and the overall atmosphere is friendly, making it perfect for backpackers. It offers great value for money. Anyone looking to stay in the city center for their travels can definitely go for it. The front desk staff were enthusiastic and promptly helped with any issues!"

"This women's hostel was definitely the right choice! It's my first time staying in a hostel, and it's really clean, plus the bedding is pink! It's also super convenient. The hostess is lovely too!! It felt just like coming home. The bed is similar to a dorm bed, but much more upscale. If anyone needs temporary accommodation while traveling, this is a great option, and it's very close to the train station 🥰"

"I enjoyed staying in this hostel. It's clean and also very convenient to go everywhere. The only thing I found weird, but still manageable, is I have to put the bed sheet by myself."

Kunming Yiye Huakai Youth Hotel

I like the way these hostels are . A lot of them are apartments turned into hostels. The principle is good and cheap. However, if full, it would be a problem shower and toilet as normally they only have one bathroom 🚻 and no separate toilet, no private rooms as dorm rooms are more profitable so all in all that is why I gave average in my assessment

I chose this hotel for a layover at Kunming Airport. It's not far from the airport and offers a shuttle service, making it incredible value for money for a Kunming Airport transfer. Free airport shuttle service: Just contact the hotel anytime for a pick-up or drop-off, very convenient.

Dongli Xiaozhu Youth Hostel

Great hostel! I felt like I got the royal treatment when I was there simply because I'm a rare foreign guest. Well, I'll take the privilege 😅. So in my particular case, from the moment I arrived they rolled out the red carpet. I made friends with the receptionist and we went to have dinner together right away lol. This never happened to me before haha. It was very nice. Then I was included in all kinds of social activities during my 4 day stay. We had lunch together with the owner, a very jovial guy, the receptionist and some random guests. It was very pleasant. We also went out for free clubbing and to the night market. Absolutely non commercial activities where we simply hung out as friends. Very cool! Definitely enriched my experience in Kunming by a lot. The facilities themselves were good. Everything was clean. It's a little bit cramped up in the apartment that's been made into dorms but it's ok because everyone is very considerate. There's only one bathroom so sometimes that can be annoying. It's a very high quality bathroom tho. I would definitely stay again for the atmosphere and the convenience of the location.

Fangjian Hotel (Kunming Railway Station)

The service attitude is quite good, and the price is acceptable. The environment and facilities can't compare to places that cost over 200, but in the room we stayed in, one of the beds had a stain on the sheet that couldn't be washed off. The pillow also had a yellow side, and when flipped over, there was an even longer stain. I didn't take pictures, but I suggest the hotel instruct the housekeeping staff to report such situations. Even though the room rate isn't high, I recommend that items that can't be cleaned properly shouldn't be reused.
