4-Star Hotels in Yunnan, China

When I booked, I specifically requested a quiet room, but the location they gave us was simply unbelievable. The room service staff were very good, I'll give them that, but it was so noisy. The soundproofing is truly terrible. I'm not talking about airplanes flying overhead; it's the constant noise from the hallway that's too loud, like a sports meet is happening right outside! It was supposed to be a family room, but there was no kids' club access, no app, and no screen mirroring! The bed was indeed comfortable, but what's going on with the air conditioning? When we first arrived, it was set to cool, but in the middle of the night, we woke up sweating because it was blowing hot air? Did you randomly adjust it for us? We couldn't even control it ourselves. The smart assistant just kept saying 'I'm here' but couldn't adjust the AC or open the curtains! Is this really a smart room? Only the cleanliness and bed comfort were somewhat satisfactory. The BBQ downstairs was both expensive and terrible!

My partner and I came to Yunnan for our honeymoon during the off-peak season. The front desk lady added me on WeChat beforehand to ask about our preferences and any special requirements. The concierge even thoughtfully sent us directions to the hotel. I have to say, Kunming really has so much delicious food! It's our first time here, and it feels like we could spend several days just exploring this area. **Facilities:** The overall furnishings are quite tasteful. Although the decor and history of this place feel quite dated, you can tell a lot of effort went into it. All the furniture is made of rosewood, and it's clear that the design of the pavilions, terraces, and soft furnishings perfectly aligns with Chinese aesthetics. It's truly beautiful, as if every scene was specifically designed by a professional. There's a really, really large executive lounge that's perfect for photos – it feels more like an upscale business club. It's also great for families and friends! Every single staff member's service was truly exceptional. They enthusiastically greeted us every time they saw us 😄 It was a very, very satisfying experience!

The hotel does not match the photos. The interior looks quite worn and outdated, and it is unclear when it was last renovated. Overall, the place feels rather old. The only real advantage was the view from the window. However, the balcony is not comfortable for relaxing. The elevators are also old and somewhat strange. It gets very hot inside. The air conditioning only works when you are in the room, so every time you return it is very stuffy and uncomfortable. There is no privacy at all: the toilet and shower are not properly separated and are completely transparent. One small positive point is that it was possible to leave luggage for a few hours after check-out. The location has its drawbacks. The street is very busy, and calling a taxi can take time, plus it is not very convenient for pick-up. The only convenience is that in the evening you can easily walk to the night market, which starts right next to the hotel in the same area. If you came specifically for the market, it may be suitable. Otherwise, most other places are quite far away.

The hotel room was spotless and very quiet at night, which is a huge plus for anyone who values good sleep – highly recommend it! The front desk staff was lovely; the lady at reception paid close attention to the notes I left on Trip.com and even gave me an eye mask. The location is super convenient for transport on weekends, and dining is a breeze with all sorts of malls downstairs and the old street right next door. Breakfast was also fantastic with a great variety of choices. I'll definitely pick this hotel again next time I'm in Kunming.

Had an amazing stay in the ancient town! The B&B's location is absolutely perfect, right in the heart of the old city, super close to the North Gate. Stepping out, you're immediately in the scenic ancient town, no wasted steps at all. The environment is exceptionally clean and elegant, with a fantastic ambiance that makes you feel relaxed the moment you arrive. A special thank you to the owner for their warm hospitality; the service was incredibly polite and thoughtful. They even kindly upgraded our room for free, giving us more space and comfort – truly a delightful surprise! Encountering such a thoughtful B&B in the Year of the Horse feels like good luck for success is coming my way. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the ancient town. I'll definitely stay here again next time!

This hotel is absolutely fantastic! The location is easy to find, and parking is convenient. The room was larger than expected, and the minimalist decor was perfect for photos. Most importantly, the cleanliness was impeccable; as someone who's particular about hygiene, I was extremely satisfied and have to give it a great review! Usually, I'm quite picky about hotel cleanliness, but this time I couldn't find a single flaw. You could tell the sheets and duvet covers were freshly changed, and there were no water stains or hair in the bathroom corners. The room had excellent soundproofing, and the blackout curtains were superb, allowing me to sleep until I woke up naturally. You can really feel the owner's dedication. Check-in at the front desk was super fast, full marks for efficiency. It's excellent value for money, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

This hotel is located in the Duoyishu Scenic Area of Yuanyang. We chose a room on the 4th floor with a terrace, and the view absolutely blew away all other rooms. We had a vast expanse of terraced fields right in front of us, perfect for photos at any time, especially stunningly beautiful at sunrise – no need to jostle with crowds at the Duoyishu observation deck. The room facilities were pretty complete, including a huge soaking tub, though it felt largely unnecessary. The hotel service was also excellent; they contacted us in advance about our arrival and parking. Since the hotel is situated on a hillside, it's not accessible by private car, but the hotel provides a minivan for pick-up and drop-off at any time. There's no elevator, but the hotel staff were very helpful with luggage up and down the stairs. The hotel offers breakfast sets and also has an à la carte menu. I highly recommend this place for guests who want to enjoy beautiful scenery without having to get up too early or rush to crowded scenic spots. All the photos and videos below were taken from the hotel room.

Bringing parents to Mangshi for vacation, it is too wise to choose the Penxi Hotel, whether it is the environment, health, service, facilities, location are online, the elders live super comfortable! The overall environment is quiet and clean. There are many tropical green plants in the lobby on the first floor. You can feel the tropical wind when you enter the door. The room hygiene is nothing to say, the bedding is dry and soft, the floor, window sill, and bathroom corners are cleaned, the bathroom is also separated from wet and dry, and the cleaning is super timely every day. The elders are particularly satisfied with the hygiene. The butler service is also very intimate, the whole process is patient and thoughtful, the check-in efficiency is super high, the staff takes the initiative to help with luggage, and the caring recommendation is suitable for the elderly to play routes. Any demand response is super fast, and the whole process is very thoughtful. The facilities are particularly suitable for the needs of the elders. The room is super large. The house is equipped with a Dyson hair dryer and Parma water washing. The mattress is moderately hard and soft. The central air conditioner is not noisy. There is a large bubble pool on the terrace. You can see the Golden Tower and Silver Tower when you take a bath. You can also see a super beautiful sunset in the pool. The location is superb, the parking lot is super convenient for self-driving, 2 kilometers away from Shwedagon Pagoda and Yinta, and it is very convenient to take a taxi. There are also local food stalls at the entrance of the village. There are many categories. You don’t have to go far to eat. The overall experience is full. It’s right to live here in Mangshi!

For this price and service, I have to give full marks! The airport shuttle, late check-out, late-night noodles, and welcome amenities are all fantastic! Besides these, there are so many little details, like the warm messages in the elevator, the free water available at each floor's elevator entrance, and the morning wake-up service – truly excellent! Just one small suggestion: it would be great if guests could choose whether they want the wake-up service the next day (I understand it might be to ensure guests don't miss their scheduled shuttle). This time, I received a wake-up call without being asked beforehand, and I wasn't planning on getting up yet, haha!

The service is top of the top. Owner very friendly l. He even pay didi first for us, since we cannot make transfer. He even very helpful when we asked about halal food. The room so nice with the best view on of hill. Very cold and calm in the morning. He even make a tea for use and gave some of tea for us to bring home. Highly recommended for those looking the place to stay.
