Hotel Pet friendly di Shanxi, China

The owner, Brother Wang, was incredibly enthusiastic, providing exceptional service. He contacted us a day in advance to arrange pick-up and shared travel tips. What really stood out was when we decided to check out early and head to our next destination without prior notice; Brother Wang still got up early to drive us to the high-speed rail station. Considering it would have been hard to hail a taxi that early and how chilly Pingyao was in the morning, Brother Wang made us feel as warm as spring! He even upgraded our room for free. The inn's location is excellent, right on Yamen Street, very close to the City Tower, yet it's very quiet at night. The bedding was soft and comfortable, giving us the best sleep of our trip! PS: Staying here also includes free trials of Jin merchant traditional clothing for some beautiful photos!

Very good experience. The owners are friendly and provide pick up at the gate entrance. Pretty courtyard and the owners shared a lot of information on where to eat / shop at. Would definitely recommend this guesthouse to those wanting to visit Pingyao.

Great location! They offer complimentary shuttle service, and the building itself has a unique charm. It was a bit noisy due to it being peak season, but the staff member immediately arranged a room change for us, which we really appreciated. The shared taxi driver they recommended was also excellent.

Centrally located in the old town, the room was spacious and well-equipped with toiletries. The recommended parking lot had plenty of spots, and the owner even arranged for someone to help with luggage and turned on the AC in the room before our arrival. Overall, I was very satisfied.

I was very fortunate to choose Glory Homestay for my trip to Pingyao. Although it's outside the ancient city, it's incredibly convenient for getting around, just a 5-6 minute walk to the entrance, avoiding the hassle of traffic control within the ancient city. The room was clean and cozy, the bedding was so soft I fell asleep the moment my head hit the pillow. The owner is a 20-year veteran who was incredibly welcoming. He not only helped plan the route but also recommended many local favorites. The prices were very reasonable, only a few dozen yuan – truly excellent value for money. I highly recommend everyone stay here!

The inn is a historical building. The two-in-one courtyard is just behind the Majia compound. We are busy taking pictures as soon as we arrive. We live in ”childish”. Although there is no separation of dry and wet, we love it. It is sunny. In the morning, we see the sun and wine. It is very energetic. The boss is a young guy, the people are very good, because the old-fashioned lock is necessary to go out, others can not enter the house, so they trouble the boss to send supplies in the cabin, go back to get it at night. The homestay originally only had one pick-up or delivery service, and then the boss also picked up and sent it. Also help with the management. Great. I wish you a prosperous business!

This hotel is so cool people were taking pictures of it from the outside. There are many small museums in Pingyao that have the same sort of classic layout, but none of them are as well preserved and beautiful. Our room was very nice and quite comfortable, the staff was friendly and extremely helpful. The location is right in the center of town and in the heart of the main walking area. They also managed our transfer to and from the airport at no charge and the process was flawless. The breakfast was delicious and generous with things for every taste. I don't know if I'll be back to Pingyao, but if I ever return I will certainly stay here.

Traveling solo to Datong, I was looking for a quiet place to stay for a few days, and 'Zhi Fou Zhi Fou Courtyard Designer Inn' perfectly fulfilled all my fantasies of a 'hidden courtyard retreat.' The inn is located inside Wuding Gate, on Ziyun Huacheng Jiuxianli street, right at the doorstep of Daiwangfu, making it convenient to go anywhere. The north gate area is quiet, and it's an easy stroll to the ancient city center. I booked the 'Deep Sleep, Leftover Wine | Zhi Fou No. 2 Courtyard · Listening to Rain Family Suite,' which was more than enough space for one person. The room was clean and tidy with excellent facilities. What impressed me most was the bed – the mattress was just right, not too soft and not too hard; once I lay down, I didn't want to get up. I later learned that the owner truly invests in their bedding. The tea room was my favorite spot every day. Brewing a pot of tea and reading a book, with the silhouette of the ancient city wall outside the window, that sense of tranquil relaxation amidst the hustle and bustle is something I hadn't experienced in a long time. I must particularly praise the service. The owner hadn't eaten after returning from the Hanging Temple late at night, and one of the staff members ran out to buy instant noodles for him. These small details really warm your heart. The free pick-up service was hassle-free, and the owner even helped me book a reservation at Fenglin Pavilion. The welcome fruit and snacks were also perfectly arranged. The inn allows pets without any extra charge. Although I was traveling alone this time, seeing other guests with their dogs sunbathing in the courtyard felt incredibly heartwarming. The biggest fear when traveling alone is staying somewhere desolate, but here, the elegance of the designer courtyard, the warmth of the housekeeper, and the tranquility of the ancient city wall made me feel incredibly well taken care of. Next time I bring my family to Datong, I will definitely choose this place again.

Ok so here is my Honest review of this brand new hotel in Datong. I understand this is a brand new hotel so I hope this could help as a honest review. -Staff are helpful even for foreigners. They do their best to accommodate your questions and are very friendly. -Rooms are clean with all the necessary amenities. -Rooms dont smell like cigarettes/smoke unlike gmost other hotels. -Rooms are fairly spacious. -location is good, its still a fair 15-20min walk to alot of the sights such as the wall or the drama play but it is close to the fortress wall down south. -WIFI is very good, great signal. Things that i think need working on - The hotel is a little bit difficult to find, i dont recall seeing a sign, maybe becsuse it is brand new. I had to go into a neighbouring hotel to ask if it was the correct one and they helped me call this hotel and actually guided me here. - Although it says I have a courtyard window it is actually facing inside (as the rooms are undeeground) and the window is facing the hall way lol. - my biggest complaint is the lack of toilet roll, i was given one roll (which is fine) but the next day they didnt replenish it resulting in me running out...luckily I always keep tissue with me (A must in china for the public toilets) - As its basement level its hard to pick up reception on your phone. Overall, value for money I think is great for the location and the cleanliness. A few things to work on but its understandable for a new business.

Coming to Pingyao, the best surprise was choosing this guesthouse. First of all, the property belongs to the owner's family. It has a history, and it has been beautifully renovated and remodeled while maintaining local characteristics. The owners themselves live in the main house in the backyard, which gives it a lively, welcoming atmosphere. The landlady was exceptionally warm and hospitable. Her introductions and tips for the local attractions were very practical, which truly helped us avoid tourist traps and save time—I am very grateful for that. They even picked us up at the high-speed railway station and prepared afternoon tea. Staying here was extremely comfortable and cozy. The room was clean, fully equipped, the courtyard was neat and pleasant, and the location was also great—just a few steps away from the ancient city's main commercial street. Yet, the courtyard itself was quiet and peaceful without any noise. Highly recommended for motorcycle travelers; the alley is accessible for motorcycles, and right at the front door, there is an ancient sedan chair parking spot where you can park your bike, complete with surveillance cameras for peace of mind. Drinking tea in this courtyard is simply wonderful, full of local charm. The landlady recently married off her daughter, so the decorations were still festive—I am sharing some photos for everyone's reference. I look forward to coming back next time.
