Apartments in Yunnan, China

The staff were really good, the room was spacious, and the soundproofing was decent. Being on the 31st floor, the view was nice. However, it's a bit far from the train station. If you have light luggage, it's fine, but with a 28-inch suitcase and other things, it was quite a struggle.

This is a well equipped apartment, with a sofa, dining room and more importantly a washing machine. I would like to compliment 婷婷. We arrived late, and she was very helpful. She gave generous advice and tips on looking for a supper late at night. She made sure we had everything we need even at that late time. Very grateful!

Excellent location, a short stroll to Tangzixiang metro station (including small local restaurants and convencience stores) and about 500m to Dongfeng Square and Jinbi Street tourist area. The owner/manager was friendly and helpful. Overall, good value for money, even considering the negative points below. Washing machine was a blessing, buy the spin cycle was not very strong. The loft bed was on a hard wooden platform with a thin mattress. I had a very uncomfortable sleep the first night, then discovered that the downstairs couch folded out into a sofa bed where I spent the next 4 nights. This was much more comfortable, but the side of the bed was not braced so that when I put my weight on the edge to get up, the whole thing tilted down to the floor, tumbling me out. Cleanliness was so-so - benchtops etc were clean but there was quite heavy dust on, for instance, the loft bulkhead ledges (which I cleaned to hang my smalls on to dry) and the window frames. Corners in the bathroom and shower also left something to be desired. The whole apartment could do with a very thorough deep clean. Cupboards, kitchen joinery, wardrobes etc were showing their age. A number of the walls and skirting boards had been painted with undercoat, so perhaps the owners are in the process of renovating. If so, it would be much nicer. Overall, for a single man staying over Chinese New Year, it was acceptable - especially for the price. But I wouldn't take my wife there if we came back to Kunming.

The room was spacious. The front desk staff was very nice when we checked in and immediately helped us with any issues we had. There's one room downstairs and two upstairs, each with its own bathroom. The living room is also very large, and there's a washing machine. Food delivery is super convenient, they bring it right to your door. Directly across the street is a local market, so finding food downstairs is a breeze, and getting a taxi anywhere is also very easy. Plus, afternoon tea was delivered to our room, which was lovely! I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Kunming!

The lady at the front desk on the 11th floor was incredibly enthusiastic. She gave us a free room upgrade, and the room itself had very new amenities and clean bedding. It was convenient to buy anything downstairs, and the hotel is only a 10-minute walk from the train station, making it easy to get anywhere. It was also quiet at night. A great hotel overall.

I have to say, choosing Novotel Living over a hotel for our family trip was an incredibly smart decision. Here's my review: **Service:** This deserves a commendation first and foremost. The staff were available 24/7, ready to assist with anything we needed. When we first checked in, a bathroom exhaust fan wasn't working. After informing the front desk, it was fixed by the time we returned from dinner. The apartment has an induction cooker for heating food, and when we requested pots, bowls, and cutlery from the front desk, they were delivered immediately. The service was absolutely fantastic! **Facilities:** The apartment's facilities are brand new. The refrigerator, washing machine, and range hood are all Haier brand appliances, and all the bathroom fixtures are German Villeroy & Boch. The decor, construction materials, and furniture selection were also very thoughtful. Whether it was the sofa, chairs, or bed, everything was super comfortable! **Cleanliness:** Housekeeping cleaned promptly and thoroughly every day. Towels, laundry detergent, toiletries, and drinking water were replenished regularly, and if we needed more, they delivered it right away! **Location:** The hotel apartment is right outside Exit A of Fuhai Station on Metro Line 5. It's incredibly convenient, yet without the noise and traffic congestion of tourist areas. An excellent choice of location! What's more, we initially booked a standard family room, but they spontaneously upgraded us to a free loft apartment! It had independent bedrooms on two levels and two bathrooms, which my family absolutely loved. Thank you for this wonderful surprise! I genuinely highly recommend this to families traveling with children; it's absolutely kid-friendly. A big thumbs up! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Stepping into the room, the cozy ambiance immediately melted away my travel fatigue. The bed was as soft as a cloud, ensuring a great night's sleep. The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area, and the toiletries had a delightful scent. The view from the window was picturesque, and the service was attentive and thoughtful, truly making me feel at home. The staff were warm, polite, and always ready to assist. Excellent value for money, I had a very comfortable stay here and highly recommend it!

The first impression can be a little confusing. The exterior and common areas around the building don’t look very clean or well-organized, and finding the correct entrance and exit can be quite difficult. If you don’t speak Chinese, it may be even more challenging, especially when arriving for the first time. However, once we got inside the room, it was a completely different experience. The room was very clean, spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. Considering the price, the room itself was excellent value for money. The location is also a big advantage. It is convenient and close to many places, making it a good base for getting around Kunming. Overall: Don’t judge this hotel by the exterior. 😄 The entrance and surrounding common areas may feel confusing at first, especially for international travelers who don’t speak Chinese, but the actual room was much better than expected — clean, comfortable, fully equipped, and very reasonably priced. A good budget-friendly option in Kunming if you prioritize the room, location, and value for money over the appearance of the building and common areas.

My overall experience at the Kunming Lichi Hotel was great. The environment was clean and elegant, with a quiet and comfortable atmosphere that made my stay very relaxing. The staff were attentive and polite, paying great attention to detail. The location is excellent, with very convenient transportation options nearby, making it easy to get anywhere. Overall, it offers great value for money, and my stay was very pleasant. The owner is very dedicated and handles the small details exceptionally well. Thumbs up! 👍🏻

The room decor is well-designed, the service is thoughtful and responsive, and the price is incredibly competitive. Its central location makes it convenient to get anywhere. There's a shopping mall and a Hema Fresh supermarket right across the street, making dining and shopping incredibly easy. It's comfortable for both business trips and leisure travel, and especially suitable for long stays. I absolutely love it and highly recommend it!
