Kunming Hotels with Bars

"The lady at the night reception was super nice. She had a great service attitude and was very friendly. I stayed here for two nights last time, and after traveling around, I came back to the same hotel. It was the same person who helped me with my luggage. The environment is clean and quiet. Definitely a five-star review!"

"The room was very new and super spacious, exactly like in the photos. It uses a keyless entry system, which is really convenient as you don't need a room card. The front desk lady was gentle, polite, and very professional. The hotel front desk is on the 12th floor. Before you go, definitely contact them first to ask which entrance to use from downstairs. They'll send you an entrance guide map that's super clear. Don't just go without asking, or you'll get lost. I've also uploaded the route guide map that the front desk lady sent me as the last picture."

"Tonight, I made a last-minute check-in at the 'Cuihu Hotel', designed by I.M. Pei. It was unplanned, but a delightful surprise. In my opinion, a hotel isn't a museum; its 'sense of history' should be elegant, not heavy, and its 'vintage feel' should be classic, not dated. Before arriving, I was very worried this 69-year-old hotel would feel stuffy and decayed. To my surprise, Cuihu Hotel strikes the perfect balance and shows great wisdom. For example, the public area ceilings are adorned with 24K gold leaf, and the murals feature maple wood relief carvings with gold accents – aesthetics that are certainly a product of their time [tears of joy emoji]. However, they've now added many art pieces to temper this 'bling' and enhance the elegance and scholarly vibe. Even the subtle classical jazz music and the light, delicate fragrance filling the air inject a fresh, youthful spirit into the overall ambiance. Yet, the common issues of older hotels persist: outdated facilities, bathtub design, and those unsightly large pillars… This leaves me feeling conflicted, both loving and hating it, and hesitant about whether I'd stay here again (especially with kids). What truly stood out was the check-in experience: the front desk gifted us fresh roses, a succulent potted plant, and a postcard as souvenirs. In the room, there was a handwritten card, red-billed gull biscuits, Yunnan small-bean coffee powder with a Moka pot. They even pre-arranged a bedtime dessert and a crib bumper. For welcome fruits, the housekeeping auntie knocked on our door with a basket, letting us choose our own! 😄 These interactions significantly elevated the stay, even adding a wonderful touch to my overall impression of this Yunnan trip. In summary, it has history but struggles with modernity; thankfully, the details, service, and quality are all excellent 👍. P.S. The room upgrade was successful, and my 'begging' for it went very smoothly."

"My flight arrived in the early hours, and the airport pickup was very reliable and close by. The hotel is located in a village where there's a lot of construction work happening along the roads, so it's quite dusty. The entire village seems to be full of hotels, but this one's immediate surroundings are very pleasant. The koi pond is beautiful, and the courtyard must be lovely at any time of year except winter. The room conditions are also excellent, clean, and the service attitude is good. My only minor issue was receiving a call after noon asking if I wanted to extend my stay, when I had already returned the key card to the front desk before my departure transfer. Just a small misunderstanding, nothing to fuss about."

"Having stayed at this older hotel multiple times over the past two years, I was prepared for its facilities. Its excellent location and decent soundproofing (a common feature in older buildings) have always been its main draw, despite a slight price increase from last year. However, this stay was truly disappointing. The only window in the room that could be opened had significant gaps, and most of its weatherstripping was damaged or missing. Below, on Baita Road, a construction site has been active for over a year, causing loud noise all day, only stopping around 9 or 10 PM. Furthermore, the hotel's air conditioning was practically non-existent during the day, leaving me to choose between a hot room or opening the window to unbearable noise. What's more outrageous, a staff member directly opened my door with a key card without knocking or any prior notice. They then simply closed the door and left without a word or apology. I will definitely not be choosing this hotel again."

"😃 Description: This hotel is located very close to the South Station, offering charming views of the area. It's ideal for long-distance travelers, surrounded by lush greenery, fresh air, and a natural oxygen bar. The rooms are clean and tidy, and the service is warm and attentive, making you feel right at home. It offers excellent value for money, and the breakfast is particularly rich and varied. A great stay experience overall. 👍 Suggestions: It would be good to add screens to the windows, and positioning the TV to face the resting area would be better for binge-watching. It might also be more convenient in the future if the front desk calls could be directly transferred. 🚄 Nearby Transportation: Metro Line 1, South Railway Station, and taxis are readily available."

"This review is similar to the one above because I booked two packages—a two-day, one-night stay and a one-day stay—totaling three nights, and I had a fantastic experience. The hotel's overall service, facilities, value for money, and location are all excellent. If I visit Kunming again, I'll definitely stay here. The hotel also perfectly balances human-centered service with self-service options. Not only are there two self-service laundry rooms with washer-dryers, but drinking water is also conveniently placed on tables near the elevator on each floor. Guests can simply grab it when needed, which saves the hassle of constantly calling the front desk for delivery and prevents the hotel's little robots from being overworked! 😂"

"The room was clean and spacious, with comfortable bedding and plenty of hot water in the bathroom. There are many supermarkets and restaurants nearby, and the price is very reasonable. On November 25th, I had an overnight layover in Kunming and stayed at the Tenghang Hotel nearby. The air conditioning didn't work, the room was freezing cold, and I didn't even want to wash up, so I slept in my clothes. My return trip was on December 15th, and I also had an overnight layover in Kunming. I chose this Ibis hotel, and the room was not only tidy but also had a comfortable temperature, no noise, and excellent service. This was my third time in Kunming, and from now on, Ibis will be my go-to choice."

"The location is super convenient! It's just a 3-4 minute walk to the Airport Shuttle Bus Line 2 stop, and from there, it's a direct 20-minute ride to Changshui Airport. This was perfect for us because we wanted to explore the city but also didn't want to stay too far out near the airport. It really offers the best of both worlds. Plus, there are tons of local specialty food stalls nearby, and there's a shared bike station right outside the hotel. We could easily get to Aocheng Tower and Kunming Old Street in about ten minutes on an electric bike."

"My mom and I came to Kunming last week to escape the cold and stayed in a high-floor suite at the Sofitel, and the experience was fantastic. **Service:** Before check-in, Jessica proactively contacted us to ask about our needs. Her service was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. She also shared lots of hotel tips, recommendations for nearby restaurants, and attractions in Kunming. **Environment:** The high ceilings offer a fantastic view of Kunming's city skyline, which is absolutely stunning. During the day, you see the bustling traffic, and at night, the city lights up beautifully—it's like Kunming's version of Manhattan, haha. **Facilities:** The bedding was soft and comfortable. The executive lounge offers cocktails and snacks in the evening, which was great. I also checked out the pool; it's about 25m long, the water is clean, and the temperature was perfect."
