Hospitals in KM aren't good. If you can give birth in HK or Thailand, that will probably be better. Angel looks fancy, but as viyida said, it's the same doctors as the other hospitals with the same

backwards attitudes to childbirth and pain relief.

depends what you call near. Walking distance, maybe not, but there several bars scattered around ChengGong. Try Mojar it's got several fridges full of imported beer, super cheap happy hour (8pm onwards) and mexican/western food.

Sofitel has good views but the food is just good rather than superb in my experience. Never eaten at Intercontinental but it should be decent and it's a nice quiet part of town. Or if you have time for a 1-2 hour journey each way and overnight stay, the the Hilton Hotel at Fuxian Lake is beautiful and they have some pretty decent food considering it's quite remote location.

Anyone who has spent an evening in O'Reilly's and an evening in Moondog would not vote for O'Reilly's.

It's daft to give awards when people can just continuously vote for themselves by using different email addresses. How many of the votes were made by new members I wonder? Until the voting data is published, the awards can have little credibility.

a very pleasant park with a tall pagoda you can climb and take photos of the city if you wish. Roses in summer, blossom in spring, nice lawn to sit on, bbq areas.

Recently the food seems to be better. Decent steak at a decent price, decent pizza, some decent wine, and the music is more suitable these days (Rammenstein wasn't the right mood music for Cantina)!

Had lunch - grilled chicken on top of mashed cuttlefish and a salad. The chicken was tasty and well cooked, and there was plenty of meat/fish to fill up even a hungry person. The salad was overdressed and nothing special - I won't order one next time. The service is a decent imitation of what you might find in the west. A large menu of food and drink. A nice civilised place to go for food or drink, but some of the dishes (i.e. the steaks) are very pricey. You could easily spend 300rmb+ per person here. Equally, it is possible to have lunch for under 60rmb per person (as we did). Warning - the bottle of water on each table costs an eye watering 48rmb! Don't be a sucker by opening it!

Went for a spot of lunch. Best pizza I've had in Kunming by some distance. In fact, one of the best pizzas I've ever had - quality ingredients, thin base, cooked to perfection. Sashimi salmon tasted very fresh and was well presented. The drinks are expensive, and one of the waiters was letting the side down by being a bit scruffy and impolite (hence not 5 stars), but definitely go and try the pizza.

Not bad. Pizza base was a little thick for my taste. Great selection of craft beers in the fridge, a few beers on tap, and well priced mixed drinks and cocktails. Staff were pleasant. A 14" pizza is the perfect size for two people, and very reasonably priced at 45-70RMB. Beware that the English menu, whilst written in perfect English, is not necessarily accurate. I ordered the 'local one' pizza expecting pepperoni and mango but got neither. The waitress explained that was a mistake on the menu. Would be nice if the menu corresponded with what you get on the plate! Hopefully this will get sorted.
