Hostels in Yunnan, China

👍 Rooms No strange odors, clean beds, and ample heating. Separate rooms for men and women. Only 6-bed and 8-bed dorms are available, offering both heating and air conditioning, water, bath towels, cotton swabs, shower caps, laundry detergent, etc. Each person gets a bed, a luggage space, a locker for towels, a small compartment for miscellaneous items, a lockable slipper cabinet (yes, they provide free slippers!), and a hanger. Shared bathrooms, three per floor, equipped with shower gel, shampoo, and hairdryers. Separate toilets for men and women. Two per floor, with toilet paper provided. 👍 Common Areas The common areas feature: A pool table and a ping-pong table, both free to use. Pool tournaments on Wednesdays, ping-pong tournaments on Saturdays, with prizes. A dining area and a place for takeout food. Smelly food is not allowed upstairs. There's an outdoor area where smoking is permitted. A KTV system is available. Occasionally, guest singers perform. During my stay, someone played guitar and sang every night. It was wonderful! Laundry and drying machines are provided on the first floor. Hangers are available on every floor for drying clothes, free to use. 👍 Cat There's a friendly cat named Laifu at the hotel, happy to be petted by anyone. 👍 Front Desk The front desk staff are very responsible. They provide information about nearby attractions. It's very close to Cuihu Lake, and Daguan River is right outside. They remind guests not to disturb others at night. After each check-in, they also send a private message and post in a group chat, reminding guests not to eat in the rooms or leave belongings scattered around. As a result, the rooms are very clean and odor-free. Common spaces are tidied daily, keeping them very neat. 👍 Guests The guests staying here are also very well-behaved. It's incredibly quiet after 11 PM. 🤔 However 1. There are four floors, and no elevator. 2. The hot water supply can be a bit inconsistent. Overall, my experience was 5⭐️ Because the rooms are clean. There's heating; I even slept in a tank top at 7°C (45°F) in the room and wasn't cold. The rules are well enforced. It's very quiet at night, allowing for peaceful sleep. The guests are of high quality.

Hey, the room was amazing! Clean, bright, and even had a small balcony~ The smart toilet was a thoughtful touch! The housekeeper was super responsive, and breakfast was plentiful. The view outside the window was beautiful, I slept so well, and I'll definitely come again next time~ Umm, five-star review!

Super nice staff and fellow travellers. So many nature activities in the area. I could have stayed for weeks. Great common areas and you can wash your clothes too. Only issue is the male toilet’s urinal always smells because they never clean it, which you can see: there are yellow tissues at the bottom covering the pipe near the floor which didn’t get removed in my time at the hostel. Wasn’t enough to stop me staying for multiple days though!

I genuinely recommend this B&B! It was super easy to find, close to both the subway station and shopping areas, which made getting around incredibly convenient. The room facilities were all very new, with plenty of hot water and strong air conditioning, and the cleanliness details were also well-maintained. Both check-in and check-out were smooth, and the owner wasn't intrusive at all. The experience was excellent, and I've already shared it with friends planning to visit.

First, some praise: ① Compared to the quadruple rooms in other hostels I've stayed in, this one is more spacious and the hygiene is good. ② The location, tucked away in an alley off the main road, makes it quiet enough if there's no one being noisy. In my opinion, the shortcomings are: ① The room truly has nothing in it – no disposable toiletries whatsoever. While it does make it look tidy, it's quite bare. ② The hot water flow in the private bathroom is a bit weak, lacking any real pressure. ③ The room door isn't soundproof, and the floor creaks loudly when walked on. Facilities: The sheets and duvet covers were given to me upon check-in, and they did look a bit old.

My friends and I stayed in Kunming for a week. Before planning our trip, I chose this hostel on Xiaohongshu. It's very close to Kunming Station, about a ten-minute walk, and easy to find with the directions provided by the owner. The owner is lovely, very gentle and soft-spoken. She was also quick to respond whenever I needed help finding something. My roommates were all pretty quiet; almost no one made any noise. The hostel's balcony is beautiful and cool, perfect for enjoying breakfast. Before coming to Kunming, the weather forecast said it would rain every day, but in reality, we had sunshine almost every day, with rain only in the evenings or early mornings. I highly recommend visiting!

還不錯 因為喜歡安靜一點的居住環境所以選住宿的時候特地避開了告莊，事實證明選擇正確。清心店如其名，是個清心的好地方，安靜，悠閑，老闆人很好。這邊離風情園和曼聽公園都挺近的，去景點很方便。

Cai Caijie is very enthusiastic and attentive. Although there are not many exchanges, I can feel her meticulousness. I am very satisfied with the recommendation from eating and playing to the recommendation of the experience. Thank you very much. This is all five stars. The communication atmosphere in the hall is very good, and it can be seen that many people have been here for several days. There is a large yard where you can take a look at the scenery. The bedding is clean and comfortable, the mattress is almost the thickness of the hotel, the bed is also very strong, the bed lighting is separated by wooden boards, there is no direct look at the lamp (I have lived a lot of youth travel all the way, and the details of the lamp are the first). The surrounding environment is relatively quiet, sleep well, there is 🐔 in the morning, from 5 o'clock intermittently to 6 o'clock. It is recommended to give more tips on the room check-in rules. There is a guest mobile phone in the room to brush ** outside, no matter whether it is day or night, the room still needs to maintain a quiet environment. By the way, my room is opposite the clothes drying area, and the lights in the room are not too bright, as shown in the picture. In short, I recommend everyone to live ～～～

It's a hostel with a very homely environment. The manager will invite you to drink tea with him, the courtyard is a very chill area to hang out in and even spend all day to the sound of flowing water and surrounded by plants. There is a kitchen available too, and the manager brings water from the well daily for the use of the guests. The dorm was comfortable and the lower beds have curtains but the upper ones don't. The manager sometimes organises events for the guests, such as the time when we went picking mushrooms and visited a local market from where we bought more mushrooms which were cooked for dinner, all at a very good price. The location is excellent, just 1 minute walking to the south gate of the ancient city. I will not hesitate to stay here again when I come back to Jianshui.

I only stayed one night and then left. During the off-season, for just an extra 20-30 RMB, I could have stayed in a guesthouse with air conditioning and a private room. I've stayed in Hangzhou and Chengdu in 2023 and 2024, and had a great impression. However, this Lijiang branch, perhaps due to too many guests or cleaning staff being overwhelmed, had rather poor hygiene. 1. There were dried-up contact lenses left by the previous guest on the bedside table. 2. Before going to bed, there was a large bug on the bedsheet… it really scared me. 3. The bathroom was a bit dirty, especially the door which looked encrusted, like a public toilet… the water stains in the sink from brushing teeth and washing up hadn't been cleaned in time and looked very dirty. 4. Some of the bedside power outlets weren't working (both the two and three-prong outlets had no power, fortunately, the front desk later moved me to another room). They should really check these. The young staff provided very good service, but the cleaning aunties definitely need to be given stricter instructions.
