Dian Lake Steigenberger Kunming

Nice place to stay, the surroundings are great! We will come back to this place.

Excellent hotel with wonderful facilities. The rooms were beautiful with nice lake views. Buffet breakfast was very decent. Would definitely stay here again.

Good place Bit unclear with extra cost amenities but very understandable staff Good service. Great breakfast

Well, it’s a nice enough hotel inside a fabricated former Wanda extended ***** mall. It’s not really close to anything —6-km to Xishan, Dian Lake, 9-10 km to city center. It’s main attraction appears to be an indoor skiing facility, which for anyone that actually skied before, is a 200-ft green circle that they classify as an “expert” run. They had some comic book/anime event going on so tons of people showed up for the weekend dressed up. Beyond the large ***** mall and running/bike track, I’m not sure if it has much more to offer. Personally, I’d advise anyone coming to Kunming to stay either in the city center or go prime spot Dian Lake. This entire concept has a half baked, 3/4 completed feel to it. The hotel is dead & while the place looks modern, it is cheaply built, the gym was unattended (not even sure if it was actually open), and pool hasn’t been open since the Omicron pandemic began in earnest in China. They told me this is a place that Wanda wanted to build up but after running into financial difficulties, it basically got abandoned all but for this area & I suppose they’re trying to monetize it as best they can.

I enjoyed every moment of staying at Wanda Realm Resort. Upon arrival, the hotel graciously upgraded our room to a premium suite. The staffs were friendly and helpful. The hotel had good surrounding stores and restaurants which is convenient especially as the location of the hotel was a bit far from other things. The balcony was also a bit dirty too. Still, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kunming as it's a very beautiful place.

I would absolutely not stay here again. The hotel room was very good, clean and modern. The first problem though is that the breakfast buffet was basically nothing but empty dishes that they didn’t replace unless you go super early! We tried to eat at 9, the buffet finishes at 10, but by this time very little food was left. The second problem is that construction is being done to the road that the hotel entrance is on. You have to take what is essentially a golf cart to and from through the tourist area which takes about 10 minutes. Sometimes we had to wait over 20 minutes for a cart to come and a few times on route had to wait on the side of the path for 15 minutes because of street performances. Overall we found this to be very inconvenient and take up a lot of time.
