Hotels in Cuihu District, Kunming

This is a really lovely hostel! It has its own charming courtyard, a coffee shop, and a restaurant. Honestly, it's a significant improvement over the so-called 'great food' at Chishan02 in Chongqing, which I stayed at previously. The hostel organizes regular weekly activities, and there are always a lot of international guests, which is great. The location is absolutely unbeatable, and the layout is really well-designed. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces are incredibly tidy. Definitely a great find!

Facilities: A bit old, but generally pretty good. The bed is neither too soft nor too hard. The duvet is fine with the AC on, but it can get a bit warm without it, given Kunming's large temperature variations. There's a small garden and an outdoor hot tub, but apparently it's not usable. It's very photogenic though! The living room and bedroom are separate, which is great for families or multiple families staying together as you can chat comfortably. There are also seating areas in the room corridors where you can relax and talk. Being inside the scenic area, the courtyard rooms are quiet. Other room types might be a bit noisier. At midday, it can feel quite bustling outside with traffic and vendors calling out. The courtyard suites, however, are not noisy at all. The location is in the Jinbi area, not far from Nanping Old Street. Just cross a road and walk through Nanping Hui, and you're in a commercial area. For food and drinks, there are snacks right downstairs, though not many main courses. I think the options across the street are better. The hotel breakfast is à la carte and needs to be ordered a day in advance. We tried it one day, but after that, we opted for takeout or ate out. The hotel service is quite good. They have a butler service, and the staff's attitude is very pleasant. When we had a delay, they helped us coordinate a later checkout. For transport, since it's within the scenic area, you'll probably need to walk a bit after getting off the car. However, you can also have your car drive to the parking lot, and there's an elevator near the exit that takes you up.

I had a pleasant stay at Grand Park Kunming. The hotel is in a convenient location with easy access to popular attractions, restaurants, and transportation, making it a great base for exploring the city. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, with everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The bed was comfortable, and I appreciated the quiet atmosphere after a full day of sightseeing. The staff were professional, friendly, and helpful throughout my stay. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and they were always willing to assist with any questions. Overall, Grand Park Kunming offers excellent value, comfortable accommodations, and great service. I would happily stay here again when I return to Kunming.

The hotel is located right by Cuihu Lake. You just walk down a small alley next to it for about 2 minutes, and you're there. The room is spacious, clean, and the bedding is very comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. This hotel offers great value for money, and I'd definitely choose it again in the future.

Location: The location is absolutely fantastic! Downstairs, you'll find a pedestrian street, and the Shuncheng Shopping Center is right there. There are also about half a dozen other malls nearby, making dining and getting drinks incredibly convenient. Service: The staff were very welcoming and friendly. We were given a high-floor room, and the breakfast was quite good – they even provided a complimentary breakfast for our child. We didn't get a chance to try the late-night congee, but I imagine it would have been good too. Cleanliness: The cleaning staff were very enthusiastic and did a thorough and clean job. There's also a large Miniso and Mixue Ice Cream & Tea downstairs, which are always bustling with people. It's a great spot for families with kids.

The hotel's location is superb, right by Cuihu Lake, and within walking distance to Yunnan University, popular districts, and many long-standing restaurants. The service is excellent; the 24-hour complimentary laundry service, where they wash, fold, and return your clothes to your room, is incredibly convenient and a real time-saver. The downside is that the room is quite small. The lake-view room I booked barely offered a view of Cuihu Lake, so there's no need to specifically book a lake-view room. However, considering the location and price, it's acceptable. The only major inconvenience is the transparent pull-down curtain in the bathroom, which offers absolutely no privacy when two people are staying. I hope the hotel can replace it with a curtain that actually provides proper遮挡 (obscurity/privacy).

A really nice downtown hotel. The front desk staff were super helpful, and they even welcomed us with flower pastries. The room was spacious, and the bathroom had a great wet/dry separation. Breakfast was incredibly varied, and they even offered a late-night snack! Their rice noodles were just as good, if not better, than what you'd find outside. When we checked out, they even gave us a souvenir, which was a lovely touch!

Our trip to Kunming and our stay at Gongxili was absolutely perfect – no regrets at all! The location is incredible, right on Dongxi Temple Pagoda Pedestrian Street. You step out directly into the old street market, and it's just a few minutes' walk to Jinma Biji Archway and Nanping Street. If you're craving some douhua rice noodles, you can find them anywhere just outside. The hotel is a beautiful new Chinese-style courtyard. While it's bustling outside, the moment you step into the courtyard, it's instantly peaceful, and it's a great spot for photos too. The front desk lady was super friendly, offering complimentary fruit tea upon arrival and responding quickly to any requests. Our room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, and it even had its own direct drinking water dispenser, which was convenient and hygienic.

Five stars, highly recommended! This is an old, established state guesthouse in Kunming that you absolutely must stay at. Its heritage, views, and service are all top-notch. The location is unbeatable, directly facing Cuihu Park. Open the French windows and you're greeted with lake views and weeping willows. In autumn and winter, you can even spot red-billed gulls. Yunnan University and the Yunnan Military Academy are within walking distance, making it convenient for exploring the old city without much travel. The hotel's design was partly conceived by I.M. Pei, blending new Chinese style with retro Art Deco. The lobby's gilded lotus sculpture, rosewood carvings, and vintage staircase create an incredible ambiance. The gardens are tranquil and elegant, and every photo you take captures the unique, understated elegance of a historic five-star hotel. Service is gentle, understated, and perfectly balanced, never intrusive. Upon check-in, guests receive fresh flowers and welcome fruits, and the room is refreshed daily with Yunnan-style floral arrangements. Turndown service includes peach gum and white fungus soup, along with seagull-shaped cookies – thoughtful details that truly shine. The 24-hour butler service is on-call, and staff members politely greet guests, always professional and sincere. The room comfort exceeded expectations. The bedding is soft and plush, and the soundproofing is excellent. During the dry season, the whole-house humidity control system is a lifesaver, especially for those with allergies. The bathroom features a built-in TV in the bathtub and electric privacy glass. All mini-bar drinks are complimentary, and there's even freshly ground Yunnan small-grain coffee, adding a distinct local touch. Breakfast is served in the lake-view restaurant, offering a rich variety of authentic dishes, including freshly prepared Crossing-the-Bridge Noodles, 'posu bao' (flaky steamed buns), and rose 'naiba Jiu' (a local milky wine). Dining by the lake creates an exceptional atmosphere. The accompanying heated pool is clean and uncrowded, perfect for relaxation. Whether for business or leisure, this hotel is perfectly suited. Its century-old refined quality is irreplaceable. I will definitely choose Cuihu Hotel again on my next visit to Kunming!

It's really hard to find a legitimate hotel like this for this price in downtown Kunming. Many nearby hotels, not much cheaper, look like self-built four or five-story buildings from the countryside. Just 20 meters to the left when you exit is Shuncheng Shopping Center, Kunming's largest commercial complex. Walk through the shopping center and you're at Wuyi Road Metro Station. Cross the road and it's a short walk to attractions like Kunming Old Street and Cuihu Park. It's incredibly convenient for getting around.
