It is in central Kunming, so not too far from anything. The hotel is beautiful with very nice rooms. The staff is great, as you would expect from a Sofitel. The star of the show is the breakfast buffet. It is huge! So many items to choose from, both Western and Asian, and top quality on everything (especially the bread and pastries!). Seriously, it rates up there among my favorite breakfast spreads ever, all 6 of us agreed! The fitness and pool are very nice as well. This is where you want to stay!

The service in this hotel is good: the response time to requests and requires are short: they are trying to improve and to meet our needs: they tried to change rooms for us when we complained it was too hot in the room. They gave us free extension of checking out until 5pm as we needed it. It was really helpful for us. The air conditioning in this hotel is not working properly: for the 24 hours we stayed in the hotel, it was kept to 24 degrees, even though they have sent the technical to check it multiple times and agreed to switch rooms for us, it just didn’t work. Other rooms are also of this same temperature level. As mentioned in several other reviews, the air con in the entire hotel is not working properly. So people who has the expectation of being able to control the temp in the room by yourselves or having it cooler than 24 in hot days should reconsider their booking: the entire hotel including lobby and bars and restaurants are somewhere between 24-26 degrees. And no need to waste time to switch rooms as it’s all the same.
Response from Property: Dear valued guest: Bonjour! Thank you very much for your stay and providing your valuable feedback. I apologize for not providing you with a good stay experience due to the room temperature. Please allow me to express my sincerest apologies to you. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused to your evening rest due to the issue you mentioned about the air conditioning not heating. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our negligence and hope for your understanding. We are well aware that this is your care and support to the hotel. We have shared your feedback with relevant departments and repaired the room air conditioning. In addition, we also tested the air conditioning in the hotel rooms to avoid affecting the guest's stay experience due to similar incidents. At the same time, we also invite you to visit the hotel again. You can contact us at any time, and we will arrange a room for you in advance. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us. We sincerely hope to offer you a better stay experience in the near future.

Though its in the centre of the city, nothing really exciting surrounding the hotel. Need to call taxi to go anywhere. The hotel is well built, with nice style with classic french way. The lobby is big but a bit dark. The room is good size and the best part is the bathroom. It's huge with a very nice tub. It's same as most of the hotels in China, aircon can only tune to 23degree celcisus. Though window can open to get some cool fresh air in, the blanket is still too warm for the weather. Breakfast is on the top notch, even for international standard.
Response from Property: Dear valued guest, Bonjour! Thank you for choosing to stay at the Sofitel Kunming and providing feedback to the hotel. At Sofitel, we strive for continuous improvement and hope to provide every guest with a high-quality experience. Therefore, your feedback is crucial for our improvement. Please rest assured that we are taking appropriate measures to address the lighting and air conditioning issues you have reported in the room. We will do our best to prevent it from happening again in the future. Thank you again for sharing your comment and we’re really looking forward to welcome you again and make your next stay Magnifique .

Overall the location was great and the food was tremendous. However the room was dated and smelled of cigarettes even though we had a non smoking room. Room was a little hot for our liking even though we had the thermostat as low as it goes.

At the same time, we also appreciate your feedback of the room hygiene. Your comment has been promptly shared with related team, and we have strengthened the inspection of the room's cigarettes smell and daily supervision of future operations. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused to you. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us and apologizing again.
