Hi there,
I need a self contained apartment for me and my kids for 2 months starting 1st nov...does anyone have any suggestions, of course would love to be close to park, and central kunming, but the self contained I can find online are booked or way too dear. I could prob go up to $50 per night for right place but really could do with cheaper...
Any ideas appreciated,
Cheers,
Lee
If you are looking on line I cannot understand why it is so expensive for a short term let. You will get a family room in a cheap hotel for less.
Check the prices. They are sometimes in local currency, but online they use the '$' sign as not all websites read Chinese character for currency.
There is a guy who often advertises on here for apartment letting. Do a search.
Not a recommendation as I have never tried any of the apartment hotels in Kunming. From my stays in other cities, I can say some have kitchens; if that is a requirement best to call and ask. Probably only one bed, though another temporary bed could be added for additional cost. Internet is usually ethernet wired (need your own laptop) and may not always work properly or is slow. Sometimes the toilet is western or just a squat/shower combo. Also, some may or may not be able or willing to register foreign guests, but that will become apparent if you are trying to deal with them in English.
Or just book two rooms at either of these

Or try the suite at this newly built hotel near YuanTong Temple which is 5 min walk to Green Lake. This chain is safe and clean. And can accept foreigners.
