Hotels in Datong

"A very pleasant stay at the Pipa Old Inn. A very historical building, though the place is equipped with all necessary modern amenities save for an elevator. Fortunately the staff very helpful assisted us with lugging up our heavy luggage to our room on the 3rd floor. Very beautifully decorated and strategically located in the heart of Datong Ancient City. Very pleasant and helpful staff who helped us plan and arrange our trips around Datong though sadly, they weren't very proficient in English (but that's common in China). Free breakfast was included in our stay and there was a decent spread though the menu didn't change much over our stay there save for one or two vegetable dishes being rotated. Overall definitely worth a return trip and stay in Datong Ancient City."

"Excellent hotel, everything is perfect about this hotel. Excellent service from the reception and housekeeping staff. The room was excellent and extremely clean, very modern and big. Location-wise, it is excellent as it is only a 5-minute drive from Datong Railway Station. Breakfast was also amazing with a wide variety and high standard for a very reasonable price. Definitely will choose this hotel again if I am coming back to Datong."

"Very good boss, very good homestay 😭 knife-cut noodles are very delicious, the room facilities are very tasteful, it is very comfortable to blow the breeze in the small courtyard, the boss is very good to help us upgrade the room type, stayed for a few days and experienced a lot of local humanities, everyone is very enthusiastic, Datong is really a very good city, outstanding people and beautiful scenery, I will come again next time 🥹🥹🥹"

"Just realized I forgot to leave a review, so I'm specially coming back to write one! My sister and I stayed here for two days in Datong after attending a wedding in Taiyuan. The courtyard is lovely, and it was so comfortable just relaxing there. They also provide complimentary bicycles, which we used to cycle to attractions like Yanhuasi, Shanhuasi, and the Nine-Dragon Wall, and to explore local eateries nearby. The service was exceptional. Our initial room unfortunately still had a slight renovation smell, even six months after the work was done, so they promptly moved us to a family suite. The front desk staff were very apologetic and even offered us a discount. Later, when I came down with a stomach bug, the owner personally brewed Puer tea for me, chatted, and genuinely checked in on my well-being. We later learned the guesthouse is run by the owner and their friends, which truly explains its wonderfully warm and welcoming atmosphere."

"We booked 4 rooms this time, with 7 people in our group + 1 child. The rooms are very clean and each has its own character and name. There are tatami beds and double beds. A large tatami bed is specially arranged for children, so they can sleep peacefully 😁. The room is fully equipped with various disposable toiletries and an instant water kettle. I especially like the service 👍🏻. The breakfast variety is much richer than we imagined, including eggs, corn, pumpkin, sweet potato, millet porridge, minced meat noodles, small cold dishes, fruits, and they even made cakes for the children. On the first day we arrived at the B&B, the staff came to meet us and help with our luggage. It was raining, and they reminded us that there were umbrellas available at the door. I also boiled some hot water to drink. There is a big solid wooden table in the lobby on the first floor, with fruits and snacks on it. The children were very happy 😄. The inside and outside of the door are carefully decorated with green plants and hydrangeas, which is very comfortable. The geographical location is perfect for our travel, close to the main road, with parking spaces available. When we don't want to drive, we can take a taxi or stroll into the ancient city for shopping and eating. As soon as I went out, I saw the city wall. I went to see the night view on my last night! This time everyone praised the convenient location."

"The price is very high, the hot spring is not big but clean and hygienic, it has local bathing characteristics, the guests are basically regular customers, slow and comfortable. The back is also a major feature. It costs less than 100 yuan to enjoy an hour of squatting, pressing, pinching, and flushing. Basically, they are all done in a deep sleep. Unfortunately, there are too many people in the queue, and I can't wait for more than an hour. I can leave my hope to the next time."

"1. Location: The B&B is very close to the Yungang Grottoes, only about 20 minutes' drive away. The surrounding transportation and parking are convenient. 2. Breakfast: The breakfast time is very long until 11 o'clock. It is a buffet combining Chinese and Western food, and there is the local specialty knife-cut noodles. 3. The tatami room in the B&B is especially suitable for multiple people to stay in. Everyone sits together to chat and play cards. The atmosphere is super good! Coupled with the blessing of the mahjong table, I don’t want to sleep at night. I have so much fun! It is highly recommended to friends who like lively occasions or to families who want to have fun. It is very cost-effective."

"1The two days spent in this B&B were the most unforgettable time of this trip. The room is clean and well-equipped, and the owner's care and taste can be seen in every corner. What impressed me most was the ancient wall of the small courtyard. Drinking a cup of tea and reading a book there in the morning was simply a great enjoyment in life. Highly recommended to all friends who pursue quality and comfort. 2When I first arrived at this B&B, I was deeply attracted by its unique design style. The boss and employees are very enthusiastic. The design style is designed by a Japanese designer and incorporates Chinese thangka art. The boss's collection of thangkas are all hand-painted by Regong, and each thangka is considered to be a high-quality product. Standing in front of thangka, I feel that the whole world has become quiet, and my soul seems to have returned. This is not only a place to stay, but also a good place for people to relax and find their spiritual self. 3 I have always believed that the meaning of travel is not only to see the scenery, but more importantly to experience life. In this B&B, I found such an experience. From the decoration design in the room to the layout of each thangka, every detail makes people feel warm and clean. If you are looking for a place to rest your soul, this is definitely your first choice. This B&B left a deep impression on me. It not only has a beautiful environment, but also feels like home. You can explore the ancient city during the day and enjoy the warmth of home when you return to the B&B at night. In particular, the mattress and pillows were extremely comfortable and ensured a good night's sleep. This is a B&B full of charm and peace of mind. From the moment you check in to the time you leave, every moment feels like you are in a Zen world. Whether it is the internal layout of the room or the design of the external environment, they fully demonstrate the owner's extremely high aesthetic level and intention. If you want to find a spiritual home while traveling, I highly recommend this place."

"For anyone visiting Datong, I wholeheartedly recommend this guesthouse! It was the perfect first stop on my Shanxi trip, and the experience was superb. It truly operates at a high hotel standard; the attention to detail in the rooms was exceptional, even providing mouthwash and laundry detergent. Overall, from its prime location and beautiful interior to the impeccable service from the front desk ladies, everything was faultless. It's clear the owner runs this place with immense dedication and care. Both the exterior and room decor are incredibly stylish. The front desk staff and even the cleaning team were all incredibly friendly and helpful. From the airport pickup upon arrival to their help with luggage near the guesthouse, every detail was so thoughtful. During my stay, the front desk ladies were wonderfully accommodating, often assisting with packages and food deliveries. At checkout, I even received a lovely local Shanxi vinegar as a souvenir. In short, I highly recommend it. Should I return to Datong, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again."

"Living in ”Xunyou” on the first floor, the overall feeling is very good. Clean and sanitary, the interior environment is very elegant, the tatami room is large enough, with windows on three sides, but the two windows on the outside are not suitable for opening because there is construction outside. The dry area of ​​the bathroom is also large enough to fit two suitcases, but I personally feel that there is not enough space for cosmetics, and the toilet and shower room are not big enough. We were going to the Yungang Grottoes at 7am in the morning, so we didn't have breakfast. It's about one kilometer away from the center of the ancient city, so it's suitable for a slow walk."
