Yunman Starry Sky Cliff Panoramic Resort Hotel

The room was very quiet, and from the balcony, you could see the pristine forest directly opposite. The hotel provided a dedicated butler group for communication, and service responses were very prompt. The lobby on the first floor had a great view, and sitting by the pool in the evening was very relaxing. The lobby also offered thoughtful amenities like mosquito repellent and wet wipes. Breakfast included local specialty noodles. Overall, it was a very satisfying stay.

The hotel is nestled in the mountains with fantastic views, especially when you're enjoying breakfast by the pool – it's incredibly refreshing! The breakfast itself was absolutely delicious too. The hotel's service and facilities were impeccable, and they even offer a shuttle bus directly to the Starlight Night Market.

The hotel lobby and the top floor are absolutely stunning, exceeding expectations and perfect for photos. The room was clean and comfortable, with well-stocked and high-quality amenities. The balcony offered a beautiful view of nature, and standing there in the morning to breathe in the fresh air set a pleasant tone for the entire day. There was also a dedicated airport pick-up service, and the staff were warm and polite. It was a truly excellent stay.

Overall, my stay was fantastic. The hotel is backed by pristine forest, offering a tranquil environment with stunning sunset views over the Mekong River. It's also conveniently located not far from Gaozhuang, making getting around easy. The infinity pool on the cliff edge offers exceptional views and is perfect for photos. The panoramic rooftop library is ideal for unwinding and relaxing. Drinks are available all day, and the stay includes welcome fruit and afternoon tea. The room comes with snacks and a refrigerator. The 24-hour butler service is highly responsive, and the room amenities are complete. This hotel is a great choice for those who prefer a quiet getaway and want to avoid crowds.

I checked out this morning and wanted to write down my experience from the past few days. My friend and I booked this hotel first, based on a recommendation, and then planned our vacation. As soon as we booked, we were added to the hotel's butler service group. I was so excited to visit the hotel even before our trip began! Our excitement was high on the flight from Tianhe to Gasa. We laughed and chatted all the way. As soon as we landed, we received a message from the hotel's driver, a lovely lady, saying she was at the airport and to take our time. It was so warm and thoughtful. On the way, she introduced us to Xishuangbanna and helped us plan our itinerary, which kicked off our four-day, four-night adventure. On the day we arrived, the hotel upgraded our room for free (it had a balcony with views of the Lancang River and Liming Bridge). We also received complimentary afternoon tea and snacks from the hotel (sweet ᵔᴥᵔ). We then had a special rice noodle dish (individually packed and unique). Afterward, we booked the hotel-Gaozhuang shuttle to explore the Starlight Night Market, where we bought many souvenirs (cute and unique). We also arranged our day trips to the Botanical Garden and Dai Ethnic Garden for the next day. After our sightseeing, we booked the Gaozhuang-hotel shuttle for 10 PM. We were exhausted when we got back to the hotel, so we each ordered a drink made by the hotel and headed back to our rooms. (The hotel even offers laundry service, which is incredibly thoughtful and made our experience even better). Early the next morning, a car picked us up and took us to the assembly point for our day trip (Mengbala Grand Theater). We embarked on a day of connecting with nature, experiencing ethnic culture, and having a lot of fun. The 'Saoduoli' (Dai girls) were all beautiful, and the 'Maoduoli' (Dai boys) were very friendly. The most fun and amazing part of the day was the water-splashing activity at the Dai Ethnic Garden, where we received a basin full of blessings (my 'eyes were wide open' ᵔᴥᵔ). That day, the butler also helped me retrieve a package. My inner monologue was a song lyric: '…unparalleled beauty.' Day three was a small group hiking trip to Jinuo Mountain, which we booked through the hotel's car fleet. It was so much fun!!! After breakfast at the hotel, our guide picked us up and drove us directly to Jinuo Mountain for a 4-kilometer wilderness hike. We were awestruck by the rainforest, vegetation, and small creatures. All six of us tourists were kept entertained by our guide throughout the journey. We tasted sour ants, spotted a bamboo viper (I found it first ʕ*ᴗ*ʔ), rode a bamboo raft, ate banana hearts, took tourist photos, and enjoyed a unique and delicious lunch. The experience was amazing! (I woke up with sore muscles the next morning ʕ◉ᴥ◉ʔ). After the hike, we also tried the hotel's beauty photography service. The makeup artist, photographer, and retoucher were all excellent, very professional, incredibly good value for money, and extremely patient. We were practically pampered into embryos ʕᵔ㉨ᵔʔ. On day four, we took a taxi directly from the hotel to the Main Buddhist Temple to visit the Dai King's Royal Garden. Finally, we took a taxi to Wantai, where we tried local specialties like 'Chong Jiao' (smashed chicken feet) and 'Paoluoda' (sweet coconut milk drink). The portions were generous! After eating, we strolled around and bought some handmade Thai crafts, which were really nice ᵔᴥᵔ. We originally wanted to explore the northern part of Xishuangbanna (via ferrata, primitive forest park), but the hotel was so popular that they informed us it was fully booked. Although the hotel offers luggage storage, we hadn't planned ahead, so we stuck to our original plan of heading to Kunming. Finally, I want to especially thank the hotel for their thoughtful, comprehensive, patient, and energetic service. Thank you to the two staff members who helped us load our luggage into the car when we checked out. They took care of us attentively from start to finish. It's no wonder they're so popular! (If you have the money and time, it's worth coming back countless times!!!) Throughout our trip, although we felt some places were a bit commercialized, it also made the journey simpler and allowed us to experience sincerity and warmth. Oh, by the way, we originally booked for two nights, and then applied to extend our stay for another two nights, which was even cheaper than the original price (double happiness)!!! Thanks again to the hotel staff, the car fleet drivers, and the beauty photography studio staff for always responding to our needs and following through on everything. I wish you continued prosperity and hope to see you again. ❃ႣᄎႣ❃ Future guests, don't worry! Although the hotel is on a hill, the views are fantastic, and getting around is very convenient (if you're a larger group or staying longer, you can charter a car and get a discount ʕ•⊖•ʔ). If you have any reasonable requests, don't hesitate to ask the butler for help. I wish you a pleasant journey ʢᵕᴗᵕʡ.

Initially, I only booked one night, but after experiencing it, I extended my stay for three more nights. The butler service was excellent and very responsive to all my requests. The breakfast was quite rich, and the infinity pool on the first floor of the hotel is very photogenic. Even sitting in the lobby on the first floor is a pleasure, surrounded by the forest. The room was clean and tidy, and the separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom were a huge plus. The book bar on the eighth floor was quiet and comfortable. This hotel is definitely worth staying at.

The hotel upgraded us to a suite, which was much larger. Since the hotel is located halfway up the mountain, it has a high vantage point and excellent views. The balcony directly faces the Lancang River, which is wide and flows majestically, with green mountains behind. In the morning, dining on the first floor by the window, you can hear birds singing. The breakfast selection was decent, and the room facilities were also good, clean, and hygienic. The hotel has its own small parking lot, and since it wasn't peak season, parking was very convenient.

This hotel is perched on a cliffside with amazing views. Many shuttle drivers questioned why I chose this place, saying it's inconvenient to get around. But I actually found the accessibility to be fine – too much convenience often means crowds and noise, and I prefer a quieter atmosphere. The afternoon tea fruit was good, but the coffee quality could be improved, same for breakfast, though it was perfectly adequate to fill me up.

This is the most comfortable hotel I've stayed at in Xishuangbanna. The environment is absolutely wonderful and super clean, and the bed is very comfy. The large pool on the first floor is great for swimming, and our room even had a balcony bathtub. The service was absolutely amazing, they almost carried me to bed! The front desk offers coffee and tea, and there's complimentary afternoon tea upon check-in. The breakfast in the morning has a fantastic variety. They also offer photography and laundry services. There's even another pool and a reading area on the 8th floor. Out of all the hotels I've ever stayed in, this is by far the best and most comfortable one.
