Body air outlets of an air-conditioning-apparatus indoor unit each has a substantially trapezoidal shape in plan view and are each defined by a body-air-outlet outer side wall, a body-air-outlet inner side wall, and a pair of body-air-outlet end walls. The body-air-outlet outer side wall is provided with a deflection guide at each of long-side ends thereof. The body-air-outlet end walls are each provided with a sloping guide. The deflection guide has a deflection-guide upper surface that gradually projects toward the body-air-outlet inner side wall in a direction toward a body open face (toward a downstream side) and in a direction toward the central part of the body air outlet. The sloping guide has a sloping-guide upper surface that gradually projects toward the central part of the body air outlet as the sloping guide extends closer to the body open face (toward the downstream side).
