📍 No. 1 Dongfeng West Road, Wuhua District, Kunming

"The room was spacious and the hotel's location was excellent, very close to Wuyi Station, just a 5-minute walk away. There are many shopping malls nearby, so even if you can't eat spicy food today, you'll still find plenty of dining options. If I visit again, I would definitely choose this hotel."

Ibis Styles Hotel (Kunming Nanping Pedestrian Street) ★★★

📍 6th Floor, Lvdao Commercial Center, No. 418 Qingnian Road, Wuhua District, Kunming

"I had a great time at this hotel. Staff are very friendly. There’s a play area that my kids can play at near the breakfast area at the lobby. They even provided my kids with kids slippers and tooth brushes. The hotel is strategically located at Nanping Street near to many tourist spots. Nancheng Mosque is about 11mins away by foot and there is a halal restaurant there. There’s also a washer and dryer that guests can use at the hotel. All in all, I have no complaints. Would recommend the hotel to families."

Hampton by Hilton Kunming Nanping Pedestrian Street

Hampton by Hilton Kunming Nanping Pedestrian Street ★★★★

📍 No. 428 Qingnian Road, Wuhua District, Kunming

"The hotel's location is excellent, just three subway stops from the train station. It's also very close to the old town and the subway station. Although the room wasn't huge, the bathroom was spacious, and the service was great. Some guests mentioned there were only two elevators, leading to occasional waits, but it wasn't a significant issue. Overall, it was good, and the breakfast was plentiful. I would definitely stay here again."

Holiday Inn Express KUNMING RAILWAY STATION by IHG

Holiday Inn Express KUNMING RAILWAY STATION by IHG ★★★★

📍 No. 8 Yongping Road, Taihe Subdistrict Office, Guandu District, Kunming

"The room was very clean, and the location was easy to find. It only took a few minutes to walk to the train station, and the surrounding amenities were also very convenient. The hotel service was warm and made me feel right at home."

Grand Hyatt Kunming
9.6 (7,123 reviews)

Grand Hyatt Kunming ★★★★★

📍 No. 1 Chongli Street, Panlong District, Kunming

"Our child wears orthokeratology lenses morning and night, so we need a clean surface to lay them out on. The hotel room was spacious and bright, and the beds were very comfortable. We stayed for three days and two nights, and the biggest highlight of the hotel was its staff. They were exceptionally professional, attentive, responsible, and quick to respond to guests. Over our two-night stay, we could feel that the service went beyond mere standardization; it truly showed kindness and warmth in the details, which left a lasting impression! Such a team of employees is a huge asset to the hotel. As for dining, the 'Die Zhuo' restaurant and breakfast are highly recommended, though the Chinese restaurant still has room for improvement. We look forward to visiting again."

Ramada Encore by Wyndham Kunming Guandu
9.5 (5,300 reviews)

Ramada Encore by Wyndham Kunming Guandu ★★★★

📍 1st Floor, Building 4, Xindu Yun City, No. 51 Yongping Road, Guandu District, Kunming

"After reading many reviews, I finally chose this hotel. I saw some comments mentioning dirty carpets and elevator issues, but perhaps because it was the off-season, I didn't encounter any of these problems. The bathroom floor is anti-slip and the shower is separate from the toilet, which is very clean! They provide conditioner, shampoo, and body wash. However, if you're staying with a friend of the opposite sex, it might be a bit awkward as the bathroom door doesn't lock. The room's floor was spotless! A hairdryer is provided, and you can also borrow chargers. The amenities are very complete; if you're traveling with family, there are even building blocks for children to play with. If you take the airport shuttle to Kunming Station, it's about a 10-12 minute walk. The path to the hotel at night can be a bit dark, so be careful. There are many restaurants nearby, and a convenience store right downstairs, which is very convenient. Overall, it was a fantastic experience."

Gefei VX Hotel (North Square of Kunming Railway Station)
9.5 (4,348 reviews)

Gefei VX Hotel (North Square of Kunming Railway Station) ★★★

📍 No. 7 Yongping Road, Guandu District, Kunming

"Compared to several other hotels in the same price range, I finally settled on Greentree Inn, and it turns out I made the right choice! There are plenty of power outlets in the room, more than enough for charging my phone and power bank simultaneously. The bathroom drainage works perfectly, no standing water at all."

"We had a fantastic 3-night stay in the Deluxe Family Room at Grand Park Kunming! The hotel is in an ideal location, making it very easy to get around the city. Our room was immaculate, spacious, and perfect for the family. The staff provided exceptional service from start to finish, and all the amenities met our needs completely. Highly recommended for anyone traveling with family to Kunming!"

Kunming Papuman PAPMAN (Xishan Wanda) Hotels in Kunming

Kunming Papuman PAPMAN (Xishan Wanda)

"We stayed at Kunming PAPMAN Hotel Wanda for our first night in Kunming, and honestly, it was by far the best hotel of our entire stay. We only stayed for one night and didn’t have a chance to explore the surrounding area, but the hotel itself was exceptional. The hotel occupies two floors within a larger building, so there isn’t direct access to the hotel lobby from the ground floor. However, the hotel contacted us in advance with clear instructions on where to meet them at the car park. The staff came down to meet us, helped with all our luggage and brought us up to the lobby. This could have been an inconvenience, but the level of service completely made up for it. The staff were incredibly attentive, warm and genuinely went above and beyond from the moment we arrived. The hotel itself is beautifully designed. Every corner was thoughtfully decorated and incredibly photogenic, and the overall aesthetic was stylish without compromising on comfort. Even our room was beautifully designed, comfortable and very well equipped, with lots of thoughtful amenities included. The views from the hotel were also lovely. Unfortunately, it was raining during our stay, so we didn’t get to properly enjoy or photograph the rooftop pool, which was a little disappointing — but it gives us another reason to come back! One of our favourite additions was the photoshoot. The hotel was incredibly accommodating and allowed us to arrange a much earlier photoshoot slot because we were short on time. The experience was so good that we ended up purchasing additional photos beyond the three included with our room. It was such a fun and memorable experience. Our room rate also included afternoon tea, although we arrived at night and unfortunately didn’t have the opportunity to try it. However, supper was included and was honestly one of the highlights. It was a combination of semi-buffet and made-to-order dishes, with a surprisingly good variety. Everything we tried was delicious, and there was more than enough food. It was such a nice and unexpected inclusion, especially after travelling all day. We were also celebrating our child’s birthday during our stay, and the hotel had thoughtfully prepared a birthday cake and a little present for him in advance. It was such a sweet and thoughtful touch, and really made us feel welcomed and looked after❤️ Overall, we were genuinely impressed by this hotel. From the beautiful design and comfortable rooms to the incredible service, thoughtful inclusions, photoshoot and birthday surprise, everything felt very well thought out. The service in particular really stood out — the staff were attentive, friendly and incredibly helpful throughout our short stay. We only stayed one night and didn’t leave the hotel during our stay, so unfortunately we can’t comment much on the surrounding area or its convenience for exploring Kunming. But based purely on our experience at the hotel, we would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it."

Kunming Shangri-La Hotel Hotels in Kunming

Kunming Shangri-La Hotel

"Kunming's Shangri-La has long been renowned, so I decided to experience it during my trip to Kunming. Overall, I was quite satisfied with the service. The butler service was attentive and thorough, and the team of Bonnie, Winni, and Evans was quick to respond to and resolve any issues. The hotel's location is a bit average; it's close to the subway, but the surrounding area isn't particularly great, and there isn't much to explore besides Spring City 66. The hotel's decor is unique, beautifully incorporating some Yunnan characteristics, and the tea tasting experience was also good, with excellent service from Echo, making for a very pleasant interaction. The snacks at the Horizon Club were also good, and the quality of the fruits and nuts provided was excellent, though the variety didn't change much. I suggest offering more variety next time. The Happy Hour had a decent selection of food. Breakfast ended a bit early at 10:30 AM, so I didn't get to try it and can't comment. I recommend adding a brunch option so that late risers can also enjoy a hot breakfast. The service of delivering takeaways to the room was a definite plus."

"The service was exceptional. I had a meeting and needed a desk not facing the bed, and they patiently showed us five or six rooms until we found one with a movable table. The sleep quality was amazing; the latex pillow and supportive mattress really helped with my sleep issues. The breakfast was quite varied, and the location was super convenient. Overall, highly recommended!"

Kunming Kasion Hotel Hotels in Kunming

Kunming Kasion Hotel

"Top hotel that really fulfils the 5 stars it carries. Staff very friendly but English proficiency is rather mixed. Super clean and nice new spacious rooms. You can even wash and dry laundry for free on the third floor - they provide detergent, machines and ironing stuff. The location is medium central, to the sights of the city it's quite far (at least 20min DiDi or 50min bus, metro station is 35 mins by foot away). On the other hand, the hotel is right next to the Yunnan Mushrooms Heritage street with dozens of amazing hotpot restaurants. Also there's an old street about 300m away. So there's plenty to do around the hotel, it's just a bit long to get anywhere else."

All the nooks and crannies were cleaned thoroughly, and the bathroom had a separate wet and dry area. Both the housekeeping staff and front desk service were very friendly. Breakfast offered a rich variety of options, including rice noodles, pastries, and fruits, all of which tasted great. It's very close to Kunming Old Street, just a ten-minute walk, and parking is convenient. The facilities are new and well-maintained, making for a comfortable and peaceful stay.

Ibis Styles Hotel (Kunming Nanping Pedestrian Street) ★★★
"Overall Impression Our stay provided a generally pleasant experience, highlighted by the generous hospitality of the team and an exceptionally convenient location. While a few aspects of the room ambiance could be slightly enhanced, the property offers wonderful convenience for travelers exploring the area. Service & Hospitality The hotel staff were exceptionally accommodating throughout our stay. Upon our arrival, the team thoughtfully offered us a complimentary room upgrade to accommodations with windows. Furthermore, when we requested a late check-out, the staff graciously facilitated our request without any hesitation, which made our departure delightfully stress-free. Room & Amenities The room was impressively spacious, impeccably clean, and maintained to a very neat standard. The amenities provided met all our practical needs for a comfortable stay. While the room leaned towards a somewhat dim atmosphere—partly because the windows were either tinted or positioned facing an adjacent wall—the overall cleanliness and generous layout made for a restful retreat. Location & Accessibility The property truly shines in its location. It fully delivers on its promise of proximity to major local attractions and is just a short stroll away from the Nanping Pedestrian Street, making daily sight-seeing and dining remarkably effortless"

"We booked two rooms. First, let's talk about the downsides: 1. The shower pressure was quite low, which was annoying. 2. The beds in the twin room were small, definitely not as good as the newer Sheraton Four Points or Hampton Inn hotels. As for the positives, it's very convenient for self-driving as it shares parking with Hang Lung Plaza, and there are fast charging stations available. It's also easy to get supplies from the supermarket downstairs at Hang Lung, and the quality is good. The hotel's hygiene was excellent, and the bedding was clean and dry. A special mention for the Chinese restaurant – the food was very good and worth the price."
