Best Pet Friendly Hotels in Kunming

I was lucky enough to choose this guesthouse for two nights on this trip. The courtyard is beautiful, and it was so relaxing to sit out there and have a beer after a day of sightseeing. The owner's coffee is also delicious. The room facilities are pretty good for a guesthouse, and it was kept very clean. The guesthouse is located right by Dianchi Lake, so it's convenient for a stroll. Our Luoyuhe room was a bit small, and storage space felt a little cramped; I should have booked an upstairs room. Everything else was great, and I'll definitely recommend it to friends and family visiting Kunming.

I loved my stay here. It is a few minutes walk away from the railway station. There's a bunch of restaurants, convenience stores around the area too. I work remotely so the foldable chair is appreciated, but it is not comfortable for long hours of working but everything is all right. The room is VERY NEAT and hygienic. And I also appreciated the free laundry and washer self-service. 8/10 experience for me. However, there's one thing I wish they could improve on. So going to the bathroom, it is one step above from the rest of the room. I was tired from traveling from Shangri-La and when I finished washing my face in the bathroom, I missed the step and fell, and I hit my head on the wall. It was an accident. It was my fault. I reached out to the concierge via Wechat and asked them if they have any ice for me since I bumped my head, they only said that they don't have ice. I wish they could've helped me at my time of need by buying ice for me from the nearby milktea shop or convenience store. I just felt i wasn't taken care of. I don't mind that the hotel has no ice available, but they could've helped me in some other ways. I was also dizzy at that point, so I just slept the rest of the day. Additionally, I also asked them a couple more questions but they were not responsive to me anymore. The hotel also provides free coffee and the room is kept clean by daily housekeeping, which I appreciated. Thank you!

The six of us are not Chinese. When we arrived from Dali, the receptionist told us our booking had been cancelled. I asked why, and she simply said bookings can be cancelled but could not give any reason. I was honestly shocked — in more than 20 years of travelling, I’ve never experienced anything like this. When she realised I wasn’t going to accept that explanation, her attitude changed immediately. She then asked for our passports to register us and started flipping through every page, as if we were suspicious or illegal travellers. That was also a first for me. We travel often and hold passports that are widely recognised worldwide, so this treatment was quite surprising. From this experience, I feel that if you are not firm, they may take advantage and cancel your booking, leaving you stranded. It’s quite worrying, so please be cautious. Also, the reception was unable to assist with booking transport to the airport, so we had to arrange everything ourselves. That said, we chose this hotel mainly because of its location near the wholesale market and its affordable price. The bed was comfortable, housekeeping was decent, and there are plenty of food options around the wholesale market.

Location: The location is absolutely fantastic, right in the city center. Parking, although the entrance is a bit narrow, we stayed for several days and there was always space for about five or six cars inside, so we usually found a spot when we returned each day, which was very convenient for self-driving. It's also close to the subway station, and there's a row of shared bikes right outside, making getting around super easy. Facilities: Everything you need is here. It's pet-friendly, and they'll arrange rooms for guests with pets towards the end of the corridor so as not to disturb others. The soundproofing in the rooms is excellent, making them very quiet. Plus, the room entrance/exit is super convenient for getting to the parking lot via the pedestrian escalator, and it ensures we don't disturb others, which perfectly met our needs. I'm grateful the hotel is so accommodating to our furry family members. Service: The service couldn't have been better! The housekeeping staff were active and friendly. I even forgot some clothes, and the hotel contacted me the same day and mailed them back! Amazing!

The hotel service was very attentive, and the overall atmosphere was excellent. Both the butler and the front desk staff were warm and professional. The suite has its own private hot spring, which is very clean and offers great privacy, allowing for two soaks. The hotel's shuttle bus can take you to the restaurant, infinity pool, and public hot spring, which is very comfortable in this weather, and the kids loved it. The highest restaurant, Cloud Top, offers à la carte dining; their stir-fried bitter greens with red beans were delicious – I've never had them prepared that way before. The breakfast buffet is also served there, and the service is great. The rice noodles were much better than the takeout we had the day before. In the evening, you can also watch the sunset near the infinity pool. Overall, this place is definitely worth staying at. I originally wanted to extend my stay for another night, but the hotel was fully booked, so I'll have to come back next time~

This was by far the BEST accommodation we stayed in China!! We booked two rooms because I'm travelling with my sister and her boyfriend. Both rooms were extremely clean, the best comfortable beds ever, hot shower, air con, all the toiletries were good quality and the staff were amazing!!!! They helped us out with everything!! Even though they don't speak English or any other language (like elsewhere in China), they were extremely helpful and we managed to communicate with the translator. We stayed two nights but we would have loved to stay longer which was not possible because visa's expiring soon. When we got there, they made us delicious noodles with beef and vegetables and my brother in law is still dreaming to get the same tasty noodles somewhere else in China 😊 We don't know the names of the hosts, maybe they are wife and husband (we are not sure) but surely this was the top accommodation and treatment we have received in China so we would like to thank you two again for everything you have done for us. We are sure your next guests will enjoy their stay at your place just the same as we did. Thank you from Sarah, Myriam and Fabio.

This is my go-to hotel whenever I travel! It's right in the city center, close to all the major subway stations, and you can get to the airport in just half an hour by metro. There are tons of local eateries around, making it a place I never want to leave. Most importantly, the room was impeccably clean, spotless even. The staff were all super helpful, patient, and polite. The facilities are great too; you can do your laundry for free, and luggage storage is also convenient and complimentary. The breakfast spread was varied and delicious. I'll definitely be back if I get the chance!

Before, I heard friends say that Kunming is the most suitable place for freelancers to live. After spending a few days here, I really feel that the climate and environment are very comfortable, and the cost of living isn't high. I was also lucky to stay in a hostel with a big TV, so I could watch the World Cup every day. Sometimes the owner would also play documentaries about ethnic minorities and organize games, but as an introvert, I chose to avoid them 🤣. That's not the point, the main thing is that I get to pet dogs every day!!!!!! 😆😆😆 There are three dogs at the hostel: the aloof Little Black, the deep Blue, and Kunkun, the Pee King 🤫 Also: the owner has a secret menu!!! You need a secret code (Lao biao, I am Biao shu). Facilities: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cleanliness: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Environment: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Service: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Great location that it is near a lot of food places, a store, and the Stone Forest. Even though I already visited Stone Forest on my visit to Kunming in 2018, this was still a good room in that I get my privacy. Hotel workers were nice in that they gave me more water and wanted to make my bed even though I didn't need it. I liked how it had a heater in there to keep me warm whenever the room got too cold. The thing that I was unsure of is how much freedom and accessibility I get in being able to cook things in the kitchen at times and I was confused about whether I was allowed to eat the food that the cook makes, or it is only for guests that order food and pay for it from him. Sometimes the cook is unpredictable in that I don't know when he comes to cook between the lunch and dinner hours. The front desk women were friendly and helpful in giving me information about certain things. I appreciate it when they loaned me a phone charger temporarily when mine broke until I can get a new replacement one. Thank You for that. The only thing I would have to say, is that it is too far from the city center from the train station in where I need to be in order to catch the train to Hekou and cross the border into Vietnam.

This time in this hotel we got the room on the first floor and this room was quite awful. Toilet is stinky and has problems with flushing, the window outside passing all the sounds from the street and it's annoying. Other rooms aren't so bad, but on the first floor better never choose.
