Hotels With Spa in Yunnan, China

Gaozhuang truly transforms from day to night; its real charm only emerges in the evening! The melodious hulusi, the graceful Fannuo dance, the endless neon lights, the exotic Dai electronic music, and the bustling Ganbai Street. Since I'm not a fan of guesthouses, I always choose the Mekong Jinglan Hotel for my stays. I visited Gaozhuang two years ago and also stayed at Jinglan. The facilities, location, views, and service were all top-notch. So, for this trip to Gaozhuang, Jinglan was again my top choice! The room interiors, bed frames, and even the exterior walls are all well-maintained, indicating that the hotel is well-managed and invests in its upkeep, creating a positive cycle. This time, I'm staying in Gaozhuang for 4 days. I initially booked a two-day River View Executive Twin Room. At check-in, the lovely Miss Xiaoju at the front desk warmly welcomed me and helped arrange a high-floor room as requested. When I learned about the in-house suites on higher floors (fewer than 5 available, with better views, and not sold on platforms), Xiaoju proactively offered a key card for me to view them. After some discussion, Xiaoju offered a very favorable price within her authority. Consequently, I decided to book the in-house suite for another two days. A huge thank you to Xiaoju for her help! My vacation wasn't long enough this time to stay for the Dai New Year Water Splashing Festival. I'll definitely come back when I have more time to experience the three-day carnival!

This hotel boasts an excellent location, making it super convenient to get around, especially being so close to Shuhe Ancient Town. The hotel itself has a beautiful Naxi style, and the room designs are full of ethnic character. The decor is thoughtfully arranged and everything is spotlessly clean. We booked a 'snow view' room, which was spacious and comfortable, and relaxing on the balcony was pure bliss. The hotel's facilities are comprehensive, including a gym, a swimming pool, and even a spa. They also offer a variety of activities, like feeding animals or tea tasting. Even though it rained during our stay, it added a unique charm to the atmosphere. Christin at the front desk was very attentive and kindly asked about our stay experience. I would definitely come back again if I have the chance!

This hotel is ideal for active travelers due to its excellent location, being just a 20-minute walk from Nanping Street, the Old Town, and Yuantong Temple, with the added convenience of a direct subway link to the railway station. While the rooms are well-equipped, light sleepers should request a room away from the main road to avoid traffic noise, and although the breakfast variety is limited, it offers fair value for the price.

The room was spacious with a window, and being on the 14th floor, the view was fantastic. You needed to use your card to operate the elevator, which made me feel very secure. Right opposite the hotel is Cuihu Park, which is free to enter, perfect for a leisurely stroll. The hotel is located in the city center. To the right of the hotel is Huangdong Street, a vibrant area, especially when the jacaranda trees are in bloom, with many small cafes for visitors to relax in. The hotel breakfast was incredibly rich and varied, with high-quality offerings. The hotel's Chinese restaurant was also excellent; the dishes tasted great, the prices were reasonable, offering great value for money. I had all three meals at the hotel every day, which was clean and hygienic, with beautiful views of Cuihu Park from the window! This hotel is quite popular, and rooms book up quickly. I booked a week in advance and couldn't even extend my stay for an extra night. If you get a city view room, you can catch the sunrise. The most sought-after rooms are the lake view ones, which overlook Cuihu Park and offer stunning sunset views. If you want one, make sure to book well in advance! This hotel definitely deserves a 100/100 score!

The room was clean and the hotel facilities were excellent, including a washer and dryer. The room had a great layout with separate areas for the bedroom, living space, and bathroom, and offered a fantastic view. The TV was high-definition, and the front desk staff were very friendly and helpful, even assisting with luggage storage.

The location of Shannian Hotel is absolutely superb, right next to Lijiang Old Town. It’s only a 5-10 minute walk from the main city road, so lugging suitcases isn't too much of a pain. Plus, the hotel has its own parking, which is very convenient for those driving. It's also near Amand. The butler proactively helped us with our luggage, and the service was very attentive. The hotel is nestled halfway up the mountain, and our room's window faced Jade Dragon Snow Mountain directly. On a clear day, sipping a drink in the room while watching the sunset over the snowy peaks was incredibly therapeutic. It's about a 15-minute walk to the bustling Sifang Street, and you get to wander through the old town and browse small shops along the way – the pace is just perfect. I have to give a special shout-out to the butler team here; they are genuine and warm Naxi people who made us feel truly welcome. The butler even gave my son a small couplet written in Dongba script, which he loved – it was such a thoughtful and personal gift. The breakfast selection is a bit simple and could be improved, but the free freshly ground coffee in the morning was a pleasant surprise; the beans were excellent quality. My only minor suggestion would be to have the coffee available for the entire breakfast duration (which starts at 8 AM), as many people like to have coffee with their meal. Overall, it's about a 30-40 minute drive from the airport, and spending three days and two nights here to relax and unwind was far more enjoyable than visiting many popular destinations. It's definitely a place I'd love to return to.

Choosing Naga S Hotel was truly the most delightful surprise of my Xishuangbanna trip! The location is simply unbeatable – just a few minutes' walk to immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the Starlight Night Market, and right around the corner is the dazzling Golden Pagoda. Serene and solemn by day, it becomes a brilliant spectacle at night, making you feel like you're living inside the most captivating landscape painting of Jinghong. The hotel's design beautifully blends Dai ethnic charm with modern simplicity. You'll find a seamless integration of bamboo weaving, wood carvings, and lush greenery everywhere, offering both a sense of local culture and ultimate comfort. Our room was spacious and bright, with soft, skin-friendly bedding. The bathroom had a thoughtful wet-and-dry separation, showing great attention to detail. What I loved most was that our room window faced the Golden Pagoda directly. At night, pulling back the curtains revealed the pagoda lights illuminating the sky, like a flowing masterpiece. The service also deserves special praise! The front desk staff was incredibly warm and attentive, proactively recommending fun spots and delicious food at the night market, and even thoughtfully advising us on how to avoid peak crowds. Every day, returning to the hotel, we were greeted with refreshing welcome tea, and luggage assistance was always prompt. The hotel also has a rooftop viewing platform, offering panoramic views of Gaozhuang, perfect for a relaxing evening breeze. For tourists, this place is truly a 'hidden gem' as a base. After a tiring day of sightseeing, you can easily stroll through the night market in the evening, enjoy Dai cuisine, and take photos in traditional Dai attire, then walk back to your room to rest. In the morning, you can visit the Golden Pagoda when it's less crowded to experience its tranquility. Transportation is also very convenient; getting a taxi to Manting Park or the Tropical Botanical Garden was hassle-free. If I had to offer one small suggestion, I'd hope for a swimming pool in the future. But even without it, Naga S Hotel is already wonderful enough that I want to recommend it to all my friends visiting Xishuangbanna! Here, you not only enjoy excellent accommodation but also an immersive experience of Gaozhuang's poetic charm, where 'stars fall to earth every night.' I will definitely choose this place again on my next trip to Banna!

My trip to Xishuangbanna was made possible by choosing the Meihua Lizhi Sunac Hotel, and the experience far exceeded my expectations – a perfect recommendation! Located in the Sunac International Resort Area, the hotel boasts a tranquil and serene environment, far from the hustle and bustle of the city. Surrounded by lush greenery, it exudes tropical charm. The lobby is elegantly designed, with warm wood tones and Dai-style elements, creating a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere. The comfortable and spacious lounge area showcases quality throughout. The guest rooms are bright and airy, with a timeless and minimalist luxury style. The entire room features intelligent voice control, allowing you to control the lights, curtains, and TV simply by speaking. The bedding is soft and skin-friendly, and the Dream Lily mattress is so comfortable you won't want to get up. The bathroom features a separate shower and toilet, a smart toilet for cleanliness and convenience, and a complimentary minibar – attention to detail is evident. The service is also heartwarming: the front desk is efficient and welcoming, the complimentary airport pick-up is punctual and thoughtful, and responses to any needs are extremely quick. Amenities are comprehensive, including complimentary afternoon tea, a late-night noodle shop, a gym, and a self-service laundry room. The rooftop pool offers stunning views, perfect for taking amazing photos. Although not in the city center, it's easily accessible by taxi and close to the airport and Sunac Land. The place is quiet and comfortable, with attentive service and excellent value for money. It's the top choice for a vacation in Xishuangbanna, and I'll definitely stay here again next time!

The room was spotless, with no strange odors upon entering. The view was also expansive. Plus, there's a massage service on the second floor, and I personally found their massages to be excellent, with very warm service. After your massage, there's a complimentary late-night buffet with a fantastic selection of food. It's incredibly good value for money, and the massage itself was very relaxing. The hotel's night services are truly outstanding. Highly recommend!

Facilities: The hotel's facilities are superb! The bedding in the room is comfortable, the toiletries are complete and of great quality, and basic amenities like air conditioning and hot water run smoothly. The smart room control system is also very convenient to use. In the public areas, the fitness and lounge areas are well-equipped with brand new and well-maintained equipment, and the public area hygiene is also exceptionally good. Service: This stay was fantastic, and I must highlight Minnie and George Chai at the front desk for their exceptionally professional and attentive service. Check-in and check-out were super efficient, they were smiling throughout, and patiently explained the hotel facilities and provided tips for local attractions and dining. Their thoughtfulness was evident in every detail. Any questions we had were answered instantly, and their attitude was gentle and considerate, adding so much warmth to our trip. Their excellent service truly made our entire stay perfect. I highly recommend this hotel and commend Minnie and George Chai for their outstanding service!
