This hotel despite some favourable reviews in obvious guidebooks - LP/RG shame on you - is a miserable dive that is not geared up to accepting foreigners. Only a few staff speak English, the rest are rude and evasive. In a modern China where there are the best hotels and service in the world, this lack of effort, and the lack of desire to improve themselves is not acceptable. Rooms are small, dirty, smelly. Air con did not work; fridge hummed constantly; beds hard; restaurants were average with surly staff. Even the assistant manager failed to book a car to the airport and also failed to let us know.

Hotel is average in terms of cleanliness. Beds weren't the best. Service was ok but not a lot of english spoken. Kunming itself is very commercial so unless you really have to see the stone forest it is best to avoid the town.

Hotel is reasonably close to shopping areas.

Nice Hotel by Chinese standards.
However - very noisy during the 3 days I stayed there due to ongoing construction work in the hotel. Clearly the hotel should have warned about this in advance or closed the hotel during the renovation work.
The hotel has internet access from the rooms, but speed is very slow - a common problem in China.
