The Kunming Jin Jiang Hotel allows normal check in at 14.00 hours and normal check out at 12.00 hours. Check in was smooth. I  booked a Standard Twin room .

Our Standard Twin category room no. 2611 was located on 6th floor of the Fashion Building, the smaller of the two towers.  With 269 square feet, size of the room was moderate. The modern decored room have a large glass window.The room had two 51 inch standard queen sized bed,  a writing desk , a wardrobe with safe, a luggage stool, refrigerator, coffee and tea making facilities . Bed was ok with standard linens with limited choice of pillow with different firmness.

The lobby is large and bright and shopping on site and gift shop. Wifi is free for the guests inside room and wifi strength is good. There is fitness room, sauna, concierge service, meeting and banquet rooms. Breakfast is served at the 23rd Floor cafe of Business Building and can be ordered in the room. But there is no 24 hours in room dining facilities. (Rating 4) D. Dining options: The Kunming Jin Jiang Hotel has wide dining options. 1.The Roof Top revolving restaurant located on 23rd floor of the Business Building, offers great 360° view of the city skyline and serves authentic oriental cuisine. You can have buffet dinner at CNY 158 pp. Hotel guests gets 20% discount. 2. cafe, the coffee shop offers buffet breakfast at CNY 50 per person and all day small eat options. 3. Shanghai Restaurant located in the 2nd floor offers local cuisine. 4. Lobby Lounge offers choice of Chinese Tea and bits. 5. Momiji at Lobby level serves Japanese cuisine. (Rating 4.5). E. Overall service : The staff are extremely friendly. Though the official check in time is 2 PM, I arrived at 8 in the morning but was allowed immediate check in without any extra charge. Very rare gesture which is highly appreciated. It is truly value for money and extremely convenient choice to stay in Kunming be it leisure or business. However, the biggest problem is lack of English speaking staff, particularly at the restaurants. But this is general problem in Kunming due to low English speaking travelers to this city.(Rating 4.)   I shall recommend at this price and also for the ambiance and central location. (OVERALL RATING 4.5)

Not bad but would not stay again.

The Kunming Jin Jiang Hotel has a very good location, right in the heart of CBD. Friendly Airport Shuttle at just 25 RMB is a good option for commute. You also get Chauffeur driven Scooter Taxis right outside the Kunming Jin Jiang Hotel for commute to any place. The shopping area and lots of tourist attractions are very close to the Kunming Jin Jiang Hotel. Friendly and courteous staff, neat and clean rooms, crisp, fresh fruits in the welcome fruit basket. Recommended for stay.
