The Brilliant Resort near Kunming (still 1hour from the (old) Kunming airport and nowhere near the city) has only spacious villas, tastefully furnished, with private hot and cold outdoor pools and any luxury you can wish for. Everything is in top condition, well working and clean. The villas are set in a lush tropical garden. The resort features a gym,... More

We stayed for one night at this hotel in the middle of a three week private tour in September 2011 with Oriental Travel of London. It was one of the highlights of our holiday as we were upgraded to a villa with private pool and hot spa pool which was a pleasant surprise as otherwise would have only been given... More

The swimming pool & jacuzzi were dirty; the changing rooms appeared vandalised; the location opposite a coal fired power station was awful; spas not seen or used as although included in the tour price, we found this wasn't the case on arrival and we weren't even allowed to see them before paying. ; nowhere else to eat in the environ...

We spent two nights here in May, 2010 and really enjoyed our stay. Although there is little English spoken by staff they did there very best to accommodate all our requests. The spa at the resort is amazing especially the hot pools which is world class. Massages are quite expensive (1000 yuan approx) but there are one or two cheaper... More

The websight of the hotel seems to indicate that all the rooms are top standard. In fact, there are two wings and the one where we got our rooms was certainly not of the SLH standard. However, the front view was beautiful even though a walk through the hotel garden exposes a construction site on one side and a coal... More

Just want to drop a line as people always discount "China domestic hotels". We all know why but it is not fair to Brilliant Resort & Spa if it is perceived the same way. This resort is no less than Banyan Tree or any international luxury resorts in the world. I am so overly impressed not just with the villas... More
