Ji Hotel (Kunming Cuihu Renmin Middle Road)

The hotel has unbeatable location, which is just to the south of Cuihu Park. It is within walking distance to restaurants and tourist attractions. The rooms were clean. Those next to the main road could be a bit noisy at night. The breakfast was excellent where there were plenty of choices on offer, both western style and Chinese style. The staff were friendly.

The location was very perfect. Lots of shops and malls nearby and the railway station is a 15 minutes drive. I really enjoyed the buffet breakfast. The hotel is also very neat. The only thing I’d say is I’d have liked if they had bathrobes in the room too.

Overall, I like this hotel chain in general and would stay there again, both at this location and in other cities. This was not the first location for this chain that I have stayed at. Location: The hotel is located in a fairly central location. It is very close to Green Lake, though you'll need a map in order to know that. It's across the street from a KFC, 711, and Starbucks, and around the corner from a Burger King. There are also quite a few shared bikes (both electric and not) available from several different companies in front of the hotel. Amenities: Breakfast is available for an additional charge, and there is a laundry room. I used neither of these. The hotel room has a refrigerator and more than the standard two bottles of drinking water plus an electric kettle, tea set, two packets of tea, and some candy in a dish (that looked like it had been there for a very long time). This hotel chain is generally very good about giving you more water if you ask. The bed is very comfortable, the tv is huge, the shower is hot with good water pressure, and the room is clean overall. There were ink stains on the sofa, but no problems with the bedding. Some of the furniture/walls were starting to be in need of repair, but it's not a problem unless you're super picky. Safety/Service: The front desk staff are always very nice and helpful and willing to answer any questions that you have, but you'll need to speak Mandarin or have a translator handy. English is limited or non-existent. I felt safe in my room, and I didn't worry about leaving things in my room that I generally keep on my person in other hotels. The maid was also very kind and helped me when I saw her in the hallway and asked for help with a small problem (that was totally just my ignorance and too embarrassing to mention!). WIFI: Wifi is available, but there is no information about the network or password in the room that I could find. I went down to the front desk and the woman there put the password on my phone for me. Quiet: Well, there were some very loud and very rude guests staying in rooms near me. I don't know what the hotel's response would have been as I didn't all the front desk to complain. It definitely could have been quieter. There was no noise from outside the hotel, though. Problems: I stayed at this hotel three nights total but two times (one night at the beginning and two nights at the end of my trip). My second room at this hotel (when I stayed for two nights), there was a blinking light inside a grate in the ceiling that can only be seen when all the lights are out. It was really bothering me, and making it difficult for me to sleep. I called the front desk at approx. 12:30 in the morning, and they didn't quite understand my problem (completely due to my sub-par Mandarin), but they sent someone to take a look. The maintenance guy who came said he knew exactly what I was talking about once I pointed upward. He didn't need me to turn off the light and show him. He said there was nothing he could do. If they turned out that light, I would have no electricity in the room. He also said that it's like that in every room. I didn't remember seeing it in the first room I had stayed in at the beginning of my trip, and I also didn't remember it from when I had stayed for three nights at a different location. Whether it really exists in every room or not is here nor there, though it ought to be obvious that a blinking light that doesn't turn off when you turn all the lights off is a bad idea, and something ought to be done). It is possible that it exists in every room but that it's not visible from the bed in every room due to the placement of that grate.

Excellent stay, helpful staff, good location next to the lake, with plenty of shops nearby

Probably the best of the budget chain hotels I've stayed in. Very clean and comfortable.

Very standard Ji Hotel, new and clean, in a good location close to the green lake, with many malls, cafes, eateries around. Basic but very solid choice. Comfy bed.

全季一直都是出行住宿的首選，酒店的地理位置優越，去哪兒都很方便，步行十分鐘左右就是翠湖公園。入住時還贈送了當地的特色鮮花餅，前台的小姐姐很貼心安排了次日延遲14點退房。房間內的設施齊全，隔音效果也還不錯，晚上要吃葯找了前台要了杯熱水也很暖心的問我需不需要攪拌棒～退房又贈送了一把很實在的禮物梳子。乾淨方便舒適度高，總之入住的體驗就是很棒啦。

房間整體比較滿意，設施比較齊全，衞生良好。服務人員很細心發現我們水不太夠會主動多給留水。衞生打掃比較細緻。 前台服務很好，對遊客的提問都是細緻耐心的回答，沒有不耐煩。臨別還贈送酒店的小禮物和小茶點😊 設施整體還可以，就是化粧台頂燈太亮了刺眼看不清，房間裏沒有適合化粧的光源，不太方便！希望可以改進
