"The Most Convenient Place to Stay in Town" Camellia Tip by bpacker

Camellia, Kunming: 60 reviews and 9 photos

  Camelia Hotel, Kunming

Though many guide books say that this joint is a little 'rough' around the edges, I give it 2 thumbs up. The double bed room was clean, there was a hot/cold water dispenser, a great bathroom and a gigantic breakfast buffet spread.On top of that, there's excellent transport services to the Stone Forest and travel agencies to help you with the visa for your Tibet trip.

What more can you ask for?

Tips

How to go there: Don't bother struggling with the road name. Just say "Cha Hua Bin Guan" (Camellia Hotel) to any cab driver. They all know where the joint is.
