[2025 Jinghong Stay] Travel Guide for Pullman Xishuangbanna Resort (Updated Mar)

Geographical location & transportation: Pullman is located in the 'vacation hotel area' within the 'Sunac Tourism Resort'. The resort area is a relatively independent area, and you will see the vacation hotel area about 1 kilometer further in. Basically, only hotel guests will come in and out, the overall environment is quiet, and it feels more like a resort. There are three hotels in the hotel area, namely Pullman, Crowne Plaza, and Wanda Vista, and the one closest to the outside is Pullman. Hotel environment & room type: The hotel is a tropical resort style, and the Dai-style lobby is like being in a Southeast Asian outdoor garden. The lawn is very photogenic, and the parking lot is a big shot at a casual shot! The lobby is on the 3rd floor, and the rooms are located on the 1-7 floors. Please note that the deluxe rooms are all on the 1-2 floors, and the noble deluxe and above are on the 3-7 floors. We live on the 2nd floor. The vegetation outside the balcony is dense, so there is no sunlight in the room and it will be more humid and dark. If you mind, you can choose a room type above the noble or make a request to the front desk! Another point is that the room is too far away! It takes 10 minutes to leave the hotel every time, the room is 42m, each has a small balcony, and there is a bathtub. The bedding is comfortable, and there are many pillows to choose from. But the room decoration is old, and there is a bit of dampness, which is a bit different from other five-star hotel rooms, don't expect too high, there are mosquitoes in the room! The hotel's facilities and services are quite complete, outdoor & indoor swimming pools, gym, aerobics room, parent-child amusement room, bonfire party every night, travel shooting.

There are 3 resort hotels in the Xishuangbanna Ronshen Resort Zone. Guests who stay in Xishuangbanna for a long time can change hotels to experience different ones. The Crowne Plaza is located near the Pullman. Unlike the Pullman's Dai-style dwelling, the Crowne Plaza resembles a temple that continues the ancient Dai memory. 1. The hotel's public area is full of Dai-style charm, as if you've come to the hall of ancient Xishuangbanna culture. The temple-like architecture retains the outline of the ancient Dai temple, enriching the architectural landscape. It also feels like you're in a movie scene, making it perfect for taking photos. 2. The hotel lobby is warm-toned and features a tea area with a wooden style. The decorative details are rich in Xishuangbanna Dai regional culture and local customs, adding a primitive Dai charm to the space. 3. In terms of architectural function, the public space is mainly concentrated under the central main roof. The lobby, lobby bar, and restaurant are all located above, ensuring a unified style. In addition, the design of the public space particularly emphasizes the connection and interaction between indoor and outdoor spaces, adopting an open approach. From the lobby bar, you can see the hotel's outdoor central garden, without any obstructions or partitions. You can walk out freely, move around flexibly, and enjoy the natural scenery. 4. The hotel's central garden is spacious and beautiful, and it is the center of the hotel's public area. There are many small reflection pools around the central pool, enriching the vertical space. The hotel's indoor pool and fitness center are located near the outdoor pool, and they look like the main hall of the temple, blending in well with the landscape. 5. Because the hotel is connected to the Pullman next door, the in-store experience activities can also be shared. Guests staying at the Crowne Plaza can directly participate in parent-child experience activities such as Dai pottery making, handmade Dai paper making, and handmade Pu'er tea pressing in the lobby bar.

This hotel is perfect for a family trip to Xishuangbanna! I was torn between the Crowne Plaza and Pullman before coming to Xishuangbanna. 🏡 The Pullman has a Southeast Asian feel, with rooms that combine Dai elements with modern design. 🍃🍃 Each room has a private balcony. I booked a 2-night package, and the hotel offered a free airport transfer. ✈️ 😘 I was planning to take family photos at Manting Park, but ended up taking them at the hotel instead. 😛 They even gave me 5 free retouched photos! The photos turned out better than expected, and the pool party was a blast! 🤗 I also got to try Dai pottery and a local peacock feast for free. 🦚 The hotel even offers free laundry for 5 items. My black mud-stained white pants came out looking brand new. I'm so happy! ^_^ Breakfast 🍡 Dai specialties, tropical fruits, desserts 🍮🍨🍭, cakes 🎂, waffles, main dishes, noodles 🍲, and Western food. The breakfast is so good that even my kids, who love to sleep in, get up early every day just to eat. 🍳🍳 Room amenities The hotel has over 400 rooms. We chose a twin room (1.35 m). When we got to the room, 🤔 I checked the bathroom, shower, and bed. Everything was spotless, and the bed was super comfortable. 🌻🌻 Things to do with kids Pets: Cute pet park 🐥, talking birds 🐦, and two real peacocks in the lobby. 🦚🦚 Crafts: Dai pottery, Dai paper, elephant foot drum painting, Dai brocade weaving... all of which are unique to Xishuangbanna. 🍀🍀 Pool: A huge pool surrounded by tropical rainforest 🌴, with a children's pool next to it (bubble party every day from 15:00–16:00). Entertainment: Children's slides, swings, running track, pink beach, etc. 🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️🏖️ Shows: Dai welcome dance, toasting song, and clown shows in the afternoon and evening. 🌻🌻 There are also many other activities, such as coconut tree climbing, little chef, mudfish catching, tea cake making, and tea ceremony classes. If you have time, you can try them all. 🍀🍀🍀 Dining You have to try the local food when you come to Xishuangbanna. The peacock feast 🦚 includes colorful sticky rice, grilled fish, grilled meat 🥩, and various cold dishes, along with a large portion of rice noodles for 2–3 people. I heard their Hani bamboo chicken set is also very popular. 😁 If you don't want to eat at the hotel, ordering takeout is also very convenient. Nearby attractions 10 minutes from the Flower Garden 🌷 and Manting Park, 15 minutes from Gaozhuang Xishuangjing and Starlight Night Market (there's a free shuttle bus 🚌 every day), and 20 minutes from the airport. ✈️ [About taking photos] 📷 The hotel has a pagoda, a huge central lawn 🍀, various rainforest banana leaves 🍃, natural scenery, and Dai elephant 🐘 stone carvings. You can take photos with your camera or phone in no time. The hotel also offers travel photography, and you can book a makeup artist.

Unmissable Intangible Cultural Heritage Experiences in Xishuangbanna✨ Dai paper is an ancient craft that has been passed down for thousands of years. From soaking the bark to drying the paper, every step is filled with the artisan's dedication. 🎯Dai pottery allows you to immerse yourself in the joy of handmade creations. As the wheel spins slowly, the clay gradually takes shape under your fingertips, transforming into various cute little objects. It is not just a piece of pottery, but a work of art that carries the wisdom of the Dai people's lives. 📿As for the palm-leaf manuscript, pick up a carving pen and engrave words on the palm leaves, experiencing the ancient way of writing. Each engraving seems to tell a thousand-year-old legend. The hotel has carefully integrated intangible cultural heritage projects such as Dai paper making, Dai pottery creation, and palm-leaf manuscript engraving into its activities. Here, you can enjoy a comfortable accommodation environment and embark on a cultural exploration journey anytime, anywhere. 🕹️Pullman Resort Xishuangbanna

PULLMAN RESORT XISHUANGBANNA

|Xishuangbanna Pullman Resort Hotel Experience. For the last night of our New Year's trip to Yunnan, we chose to stay at the Pullman Resort Hotel located in the western suburbs of Xishuangbanna. 🔝Location: Yunnan is an impeccable travel destination. Since visiting Lijiang and Shangri-La in 2022, I have returned every year. It has been a week since we arrived in Yunnan, and this is the third day of our trip to Xishuangbanna. We have visited most of the major Dai attractions, so we decided to stay at the Pullman Hotel before returning home. As my introduction to 5-star hotels, I have stayed at many Pullman hotels under Accor, but this is my first time staying at a Pullman resort hotel. Like most resort hotels, it is located in a remote area, next to the Sunac Mall in the western suburbs of Xishuangbanna, and should be a supporting hotel. 🚦Transportation: The hotel is close to the airport, so you can see planes taking off and landing up close, making it ideal for guests traveling by plane. It is about a 30-minute drive from the center of Xishuangbanna, such as Gaozhuang, so we recommend visiting the attractions before staying here to rest before flying. The attractions in Xishuangbanna are scattered, so we recommend driving. Parking at the hotel is very convenient, and there are not many businesses nearby, so we recommend driving to eat or shop. 🏨Facilities and Services: The hotel is located in the western suburbs near the airport, surrounded by small hills and lush greenery, giving it a forest-like feel. The Southeast Asian-style lobby is very grand, adding to the vacation atmosphere. The lobby is bright, and the lobby bar, check-in area, and lounge area are well-distributed, ranking among the top hotels in Sunac. We stayed with a 30% discount with the Accor Plus card. The hotel is very friendly to Accor members, offering complimentary breakfast for two and drinks at the lobby bar, and even half-price breakfast. There is also a well-stocked minibar, with not only common carbonated drinks but also Yunnan's specialty tamarind juice, which left a great impression. It is worth mentioning that Pullman's bedding is excellent, and the pillows are the most comfortable I have ever slept on in a hotel. The brand is Pacific Coast, and they are not cheap. ⭕Great Experience: The hotel has two "cute" peacocks 🦚 in the center of the lobby to welcome guests, which is very effective, as guests love to take photos with them. The breakfast the next day was of high quality, with a wide variety of options, ranking among the top hotels in the same category, offering many Yunnan specialty foods that are popular with tourists, and members can enjoy half-price breakfast. In addition, during the New Year's holiday, the hotel hosts a bonfire party on the lawn, where dancers enthusiastically invite guests to dance with them. The sunrise in Xishuangbanna is late, so guests in high-floor rooms can enjoy a forest sunrise from the balcony.

Pullman Resort Xishuangbanna is a paradise for family activities! Bubble parties, bamboo pole dancing, bonfire parties... You name it! The petting zoo is a favorite among kids. For just 10 yuan, you can buy some feed and let your kids get up close and personal with the animals! But the room had a strong musty smell, the facilities were a bit old, and the ventilation wasn't great, which was a bit disappointing. But the breakfast was quite rich, and the Lao iced coffee was amazing! The deluxe king room includes breakfast, welcome fruit, a mini bar, a photo shoot, airport transfer, and butler service. We also got tickets to the flower garden (9:00 am–12:00 pm). Wanda Vista Resort Xishuangbanna offers luxury in the garden pool villa! Stepping into the resort is like entering a paradise. The garden pool villa is private and spacious, with every detail exuding luxury and comfort. The children's laughter is pure joy! The nine-grid snacks and fruit are colorful and fresh, and every bite is a gift from nature. Afternoon tea is so exquisite that you can't bear to eat it! The butler service is exemplary! They communicated with us on WeChat in advance and met all our needs, making us feel at home. The hotel is large, but the shuttle service is efficient and convenient, taking you to your destination in less than 5 minutes, making your trip smoother! The breakfast feast is another highlight of the resort! From Chinese hot dishes to Western pastries, from fresh juices to selected coffee, every dish is a temptation for the taste buds, making the start of the day full of energy and anticipation!

The hotel is close to the airport and high-speed railway station. It's hard to book a hotel that is not far away and reasonably priced during peak hours, and the transportation is also convenient. The hotel has complete facilities, the lobby is clean and tidy, and there is a lobby bar in front of the open lobby, which displays a variety of eye-catching desserts, and the price is also very affordable. I highly recommend trying their croissants!!! The hotel is very large and there are many beautiful photo spots. The most memorable thing for me is the alpaca that is warming up and a bunch of small mushrooms that grow after the rain🍄 If you observe carefully, you will find a lot of small scenes that can take beautiful photos. I highly recommend sisters who like to take photos to come!!

From June 7th to 14th this year, I visited Xishuangbanna, a Dai Autonomous Prefecture in China. At the Pullman Hotel, they offered free photoshoots in traditional Dai costumes. The air was fresh, and the weather was not too hot, making it an excellent time for traveling. At night, it was around 23 degrees, and during the day, it reached about 29 degrees. Xishuangbanna seems to be a popular destination for many young Chinese people. I saw many Chinese girls taking photos in traditional clothes at the Shengguang Market. The night view of Shengguang Market, said to be the biggest night market in Asia, is truly spectacular. If you get the chance, I highly recommend visiting Xishuangbanna~~

This time in Banna, I chose the Sunac Pullman Resort Hotel for a few days stay and here's my real experience~ Purely personal sharing, for your reference only~ 📍【Location & Transportation】 Pullman is located in the 'Resort Hotel Zone' within the 'Sunac Tourist Resort Area'. 🌊 The resort area is a relatively independent section, and you need to drive about 1 kilometer further inside to see the resort hotel zone, which is basically only accessed by hotel guests, making the overall environment quiet and more of a resort village feel. There are three hotels in the hotel zone, namely Pullman, Crowne Plaza, and Wanda Vista. Pullman is the closest to the outside. We rented a car for self-driving; it's 20 minutes from the airport to the hotel, and 25 minutes from the hotel to Gaozhuang. The recommended restaurants are mostly in Gaozhuang, and it's actually not very convenient to take a taxi. We went to Gaozhuang every day, so if you're looking for convenience, it might be better to stay in Gaozhuang🏙️ 📍【Hotel Environment & Room Types】 The hotel has a tropical resort style, with a Dai-style lobby that feels like you're in Southeast Asia🏝️. The outdoor garden lawn is very photogenic📷. The parking lot offers a great photo op at any random spot! The lobby is on the 3rd floor, while rooms are located on floors 1-7. ❗Note that Deluxe rooms are on floors 1-2, and only the more prestigious Deluxe and above are on floors 3-7. We stayed on the 2nd floor, and the dense vegetation outside the balcony meant no sunlight in the room, making it rather damp and dark. If this bothers you, choose a higher room type or discuss your needs with the front desk❗ Another downside is that the rooms are too far away❗ It takes 10 minutes to get out of the hotel every time. The rooms are 42㎡, each with a small balcony and a bathtub. The bedding is comfortable, and there's a wide selection of pillows. However, the room decor is outdated, and a bit damp compared to other five-star hotels, so don't set your expectations too high. There are also mosquitoes in the room. 📍【Facilities & Services】 The hotel's facilities and services are quite comprehensive, with an outdoor & indoor swimming pool➕gym➕aerobics room➕children's playroom➕nightly bonfire parties➕travel photography. 📷 Each room gets one complimentary travel photography session with Pullman! You get 5 retouched photos, makeup needs to be purchased separately, with 💰100 for simple makeup and 💰300 for elaborate Dai-style makeup. I chose convenience and had the photos taken at the hotel. The makeup artist was very attentive, and I was satisfied with the results, which were not as exaggerated as those done by outside shops. The shooting location is right next to Wanda, so there's no need to queue up in Gaozhuang~ The clothes for the shoot are thick and hot, so it's very convenient to shoot at the hotel! Additional retouched photos cost 💰80 each, and I added 320 in total for 9 photos! The hotel's breakfast has a wide variety, but the taste is too bad It's like chewing wax, which is a point of criticism 【Overall, I give it four stars⭐⭐⭐⭐ I booked it on a certain 🐠 for 💰970 with breakfast and dinner included, and the overall hotel experience was good. It's a viable choice if it's within your budget, but if you care about the convenience of transportation, staying in Gaozhuang would be better!

It's about a 40-minute walk from the water-splashing square to the vicinity of the Starlight Night Market🚶. 🛏Accommodation: 👑【Resort】Options include Crown👑, Pullman, Intercontinental, Bodo, Wanda Vista, and Xiyu. 💰【Budget Travel】You can find places about a 20-minute walk from the main battlefield. 🎈【Main Battlefield】Near the Gaozhuang Night Market or the water-splashing square. 📋Activity Itinerary: 🎊April 12th 【8 PM】Go to Gaozhuang Xishuang Scenic Area to participate in the float parade🎊. 🎊April 13th 【9 AM】Go to White Elephant Beach to admire the sand sculptures🐘, and there's also an exciting cockfighting show🐔. 【1 PM】Go to Guanli Lane to watch ethnic performances and dragon boat races by the river🐲. 【8 PM】Participate in the mass release of Kongming lanterns and water lanterns🎇. 🎊April 14th 【9 AM】Feel the joyous atmosphere of the float parade on the water-splashing square section🎉. 【1 PM】Head to Manting Park for the cultural and creative market👒. 【7 PM】Go to the Fortune Center to experience Yunnan's Dai dance💃. 🎊April 15th 【9 AM】Participate in the water drawing ceremony by the viewing platform on the river🚰. 【11 AM】You can start the citywide water-splashing carnival at the water-splashing square + Gaozhuang + Fortune Center💦! ⚠Some tips: ⚠The times are just for reference😜, please follow the actual event schedule! ⚠Be sure to bring your own basin, water gun, and raincoat👘, otherwise, they are too expensive in the scenic area. ⚠Prepare non-slip slippers, waterproof backpack, swimsuit and goggles, waterproof phone pouch, and other items in advance🎽. ⚠Don't wear flip-flops, sandals are the best choice👡, and don't wear one-piece Dai clothing, it's easy to have a wardrobe malfunction👗! ⚠Xishuangbanna is very hot🌞, make sure to apply sunscreen properly! ⚠Go to the events early, don't be late🕛. ⚠Girls should be careful of perverts👋, if you encounter any, don't be afraid, just call 110👮. ✨END✨, I hope everyone has fun😀!

Before setting out, once the flights and hotels are arranged, you've basically completed 99.99% of the planning. Today, I'm going to share with you an ultra-comprehensive selection of hotels in Xishuangbanna👇 Banna's conventional accommodation choices 1⃣️ Gaozhuang/Xingguang Night Market 🌟 Gaozhuang is actually not the center of Banna, but a scenic area, located across the river from the city center, known for the Xingguang Night Market. ✔️ Pros: Overall not expensive; transportation from Gaozhuang to other places is not good, but staying in the scenic area makes it convenient to go to Xingguang Night Market and ride Snoopy electric cars, allowing you to experience local life in Banna, which is quite down-to-earth; convenient for checking in at popular stores ❌ Cons: Mostly homestays with varying levels of accommodation; some homestays can be noisy at night; prices tend to be higher in the scenic area 2⃣️ Water-Splashing Square 🌟 The area around Water-Splashing Square is actually Banna's urban area, not far from the riverside night market, where you can get a better feel for local life ✔️ Pros: Can order takeout; relatively quieter compared to Gaozhuang; moderate hotel prices; cheaper prices in general ❌ Cons: No very good hotels, just average; prone to traffic jams 3⃣️ Family Hotels 🌟 For the latter part of the trip with kids, I recommend going to Banna's family hotels to experience the holiday vibe, rest well while engaging in family activities. Generally, they offer travel photography sessions, making it easier to take pictures in the hotel Some with good reputations include: Crowne Plaza/Pullman/Wanda Vista (Sunac Hotel Group) Anantara (near the Botanical Garden) InterContinental (quite far) ✔️ Pros: Assured service, hotels come with beautiful Banna tropical rainforest scenery, lots of family activities ❌ Cons: Compared to similar five-star hotels, the price is high and the cost-performance ratio is low; the hotels are relatively old 📝 Homework copy: This time I stayed for five days, the first three days in Gaozhuang homestays (pictures 1-7), and the last two days in a family hotel from the Sunac Hotel Group (pictures 8-14). I changed hotels on the day of hiking in Jino Mountain, which overall was a reasonable arrangement for a family trip.

The Doubletree by Hilton Xishuangbanna Wanda is not only close to the airport, but also close to the two most important attractions in the city center. It is only a few kilometers away and you can visit it at any time. The banyan buildings piled up with glazed tiles, the lake reflects the beauty of the shore, and the rainforest scenery. The hotel is part of Wanda International Resort. Like other attractions in the resort, it belongs to Wanda Group. Guests staying at the hotel can enjoy 20% discount on Wanda Theme Park and Yuxiu Theatre Tickets~~ DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Xishuangbanna Wanda Since it was opened in Xishuangbanna, it was naturally full of smell. From the moment I entered the hotel lobby, I felt the strong Dai people's style. The lobby is an open and sleek spire-style building with ethnic dcor. The four huge pillars supporting the roof symbolize the elephant foot, and the painted elephant in the middle of the lobby is the symbol of the hotel. From the lobby bar, the view is very wide, and the view is full of lush scenery. The warm climate makes the flowers bloom all year round. Even in the winter, the beautiful Xishuangbanna is still full of vitality and greenery.
