Kunming Changshui International Airport

Home Inn

Nice place, very friendly and accommodating staff including even maids and caretakers. Especially one of the receptionists was very patient with our basic Chinese (but they speak good English too). Perfect breakfast. Clean rooms. We spent there three nice days.

. Dont go with how it looks from the outside. It's a very nice hotel. I stayed there during my overnight stay at Kunming, paid by my airline career. So I have no expectation and I was pleasantly surprised. 
First the rooms r very clean. They r adequately sized. Each room has clean comfortable beds, TV , electric kettle, sitting area with table and comfy chairs.
The bathrooms r quite nice. Clean towels and enough free toiletries. Even sleepers. Running hot and cold water. Free breakfast ! I even had a mountain view room
The Only complaint is an airport hotel should keep front desk employees who can speak and understand English! A country where u cant use google translate, it's very hard to communicate!

With this cheap price we didn't expect that much, but the hotel was really nice. The room was clean, the beds confortable and the bathroom very good compared to other chinese hotels. Together with the very good location its a perfect city hotel if you don't want to spend too much money.

The hotel is centrally located, even if a little obscure as it is converted from an old building along Qingnian Lu. It is only a stone's throw from central Kunming. There are plenty of rooms even on busy weekends, and the people at the reception are friendly and helpful (when they are not overwhelmed by guests). The rooms are of decent sized, ok beds and really nice warm water 24/7. Reliable, free wifi in the entire premise! The local breakfast is also decent for 15rmb.

And no matter how we tried to tip the super-friendly and diligent cleaning lady on our floor, she insisted it's her job and refused to take a single rmb from us. We were really impressed.

Our main complaint is with the stairs. There is no lift at the reception, and so dragged our numerous luggages up the main stairs (no concierge service service around) to the lift which is quite a distance away. Then there are rooms that are kind of in-between floors, so another flight of stairs to navigate at our floor. It's only after that we found out that the lift does go to the first floor at the back of the building (through the side carpark entrance), but no one bothered to tell us.

The hotel staff would also be happy to provide a map and point you in the right direction, but that is as much travel advisory they are able to provide. The hotel partners with a local agency to offer a few standard day tours, but don't know much about them and will only direct us to call the agency to inquire. I guess being more focused on locals, this is not a core business.

Overall this place provides you with a comfortable, clean, functional and affordable room in a central location. So it works if you just want a good place that works to stay for the night. Besides it makes no sense to come expecting the comprehensive services of a full service hotel.

Tip 1: If for some reason you are staying for 2 days or more in Kunming, it makes sense to buy the Home Inn card. For 50rmb it gets you a 20% discount during your first stay, and the card pays for itself.

Tip 2: To get there just remember the address if you are cabbing there. The entrance might not be easy to spot, but following the number you will know if you've overshot.

This was just how I felt on checking in from my last leg of tour in Yunnan. If you don't mind the flight of stairs to the 1st floor for the lift and the traffic noise outside the hotel. Room facing the front was inevitably so but during peak hour only. Shops line both sides of the 2.5 km long Qingnian Lu. My taxi driver who said he was very familiar here, did missed the hotel.Telling him the number 151 put him back to track.The receptionist and staff are very courteous. The double room is clean, functional in size and good basic requirements. The 15rmb buffet breakfast  worthy. 
A 30 mins walk to Cuihu Lake to see seagulls. To the left walk to the Parkson and just next to it a Mall of various restaurants, western and 'guo qiao mi xian' a must try. Not far from here are the Dongfeng Square and also the JingMa Fang, shops and restaurants. JingMa Fang can be reached by commuting the No. 4 bus (1rmb) opposite Home Inn. Stations are announced in chinese and english. From JingMa Fang station hop on to No.73 bus to get to Yunnan Nationalities Village entrance fee 90rmb. At the drive way here you will find travel agent tout who will take you to the Dianchi Lake Western Hills nearby for a price which include entrance ticket, cableway, self guided tour and transfer.
Kunming World Expo, The Golden Temple and the Black Dragon Pool are all within easy excess from the hotel.
