Hotels with Bars in Pingyao County

Pingyao Taotang Inn | The Ultimate Blend of Warmth and Luxury in a Jin Merchant Courtyard ✨ Just checked out and I *have* to rave about this hidden gem of a hotel in the ancient city! From the moment I stepped into Pingyao, I was completely won over by Taotang Inn's thoughtfulness. - Luxurious Transfer, Grand Entrance: As soon as I got off the high-speed train, a Maybach arranged by the hotel was waiting. The spacious back seat, supple leather upholstery, and smooth ride into the ancient city instantly melted away travel fatigue. Talk about arriving in style! - A Detail-Oriented Dream: Every corner of the room spoke of meticulous design – dark walnut wainscoting paired with warm-glow glass lamps created a retro yet sophisticated ambiance. The bedding was incredibly soft and gentle on the skin, and the mattress offered perfect support; I didn't want to get out of bed for two nights straight! The bathroom was an even bigger surprise, with high-end toiletries like Le Labo Santal 33 hand soap and Appelles mouthwash, plus the latest Dyson hairdryer. My hair was smooth and frizz-free after drying, the quality was truly palpable. - Heartwarming Butler Service: Whenever we left, the butler would always hand us a warm bottle of mineral water and patiently recommend authentic local restaurants, even planning our routes for us. After a tiring day exploring the ancient city, returning to the hotel's warm, soft lighting and peaceful courtyard instantly calmed us down. It truly felt like coming home. - Ancient Charm, Peaceful Retreat: The hotel itself is a beautifully preserved Jin merchant courtyard, with red lanterns hanging high and intricately carved wooden window lattices. During the day, we sunbathed and enjoyed tea in the courtyard, and at night, we drifted off to sleep listening to the quiet sounds of the ancient city. It perfectly balanced historical charm with modern comfort. This was by far the best choice of my Shanxi trip, no exaggeration! Next time I'm in Pingyao, I'm definitely staying here again. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality and a warm, inviting atmosphere!

This hotel has a fantastic vibe, apparently designed by a Beijing-based architect. The space is exquisite and super photogenic! The food was delicious 😋 and the butler service was excellent. The sound system in the room was amazing, and the in-room amenities were thoughtfully chosen and high-quality! Highly recommend! It's also very close to the high-speed train station, so you don't need to arrange transportation too far in advance.

What a pleasant surprise! This hundred-year-old courtyard, said to have once been a general's residence, completely met my expectations. The room amenities were excellent, and I particularly want to praise how comfortable the pillows were. The cafe offers complimentary coffee and tea from 2 PM to 10 PM, and the staff member there was incredibly kind and attentive. Breakfast was also exquisite and plentiful, especially the handmade noodles prepared by the auntie – absolutely amazing! The staff mentioned they're expanding, and the adjacent courtyard will soon feature a children's playground, gym, and meeting rooms. I'll definitely be back!

My friends and I love simple, bright, and fresh decor, which is why we ultimately booked this B&B on Ctrip. The pick-up and drop-off service was perfect for us non-driving independent travelers; the car took us to the entrance of the ancient town, and then the shuttle bus from the ancient town dropped us right at the hotel entrance. This was so much better than dragging our luggage through the ancient town like other tourists. Although the B&B isn't on the main street of the ancient town, it's a short walk from everywhere, which is very convenient, and it offers a quiet retreat from the bustle. The butler's service was incredibly thoughtful; they gave us a map of the ancient town and even explained how to explore and where to eat. Even though it's a renovated old house, the interior feels very modern, and the hygiene is excellent. They provide disposable bath towels, regular towels, toilet seat covers, and even bathtub liners. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with attentive service, definitely recommended.

Come to Pingyao to play, it is estimated that this is a newly opened hotel. The environment facilities have nothing to say. It is very clean and spacious. The hotel is convenient to go anywhere next to the ancient city. There are snack streets next to various restaurants to eat. The hotel service staff are also good. Everything is in place. Give me a good experience, and then Pingyao will live in his house! ! !

I chose this B&B after reading reviews on Ctrip while on the direct bus from Datong Ancient City to Mount Wutai. The first 12 photos are all beautiful photos of the B&B taken by a handsome guy. 👍The last two photos were taken by a newbie, an old naughty boy. 😂It was our first time in our lives to have close contact with the earthen kang (kang bed). It was so much fun. 🤭The best thing was that we met the kind and lovely owner and his wife who picked us up. Thank you for your hard work. 🙏💐I am very happy to meet you in such a huge crowd. 🥳If you like to feel like home after strolling around Pingyao Ancient City, choose Yushengde. 😊We also had a super active cat, Yu Yu Mimi, come today. 🐱Thank you also to the ladies at the B&B for staying for two nights. You guys contributed to our happiness and joy. ⚘️⚘️

Hotel is inside the ancient city,  A historical building complex, with elaborate decoration and old style furniture in the rooms and lobby.   Most rooms are on the smaller side.    Local businesses that dress up ladies in traditional costumes and makeup seem to prefer to use the courtyard to do photo shoots.    The rail station pickup and drop off was valuable as the station is 15-20 minutes drive from the old city, overall service was good,  breakfast was better than average - the buffet had enough variety, surprisingly some premixed coffee and no hot tea - Chinese don't drink tea anymore? 

From check-in to check-out, my stay was incredibly pleasant. The environment is quaint and tranquil, perfectly fitting the ancient city's vibe. The room was clean and hygienic, the bedding comfortable, and there was plenty of hot water. The service was attentive and thoughtful, and the location was convenient for getting around. It offers excellent value for money and is the perfect place to stay when visiting Pingyao.

Our stay at Xinghuacun Inn was excellent! Since we were traveling with elderly family members, they upgraded us to a suite, which saved us the hassle of going up and down stairs. Overall, it was a comfortable and pleasant experience. The inn's accommodations were clean and tidy, the room decor was elegant and cozy, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and it was wonderfully quiet, making for an outstanding rest. The staff were warm, thoughtful, friendly, and polite. Their service was meticulous and attentive, responding promptly to any request. They were genuinely reliable and made us feel truly welcome. The restaurant's food was authentic and delicious, with fresh and substantial ingredients. The dishes were abundant, tasty, and full of flavor. From the accommodations and attentive service to the specialty meals, everything was well-arranged and served perfectly. It offers incredible value for money and is our top choice for travel accommodations. Highly recommended!

A wonderful inn nestled in a tranquil location amidst the bustle of the city. From the initial pick-up and parking arrangements to the final departure, there was not a single unpleasant experience; they were incredibly attentive, helpful, and meticulous. The inn is elegant, clean, and tidy. The staff are friendly, patient, and responsive. The aroma of freshly baked bread fills the air daily, and the Chinese and Western breakfasts are cooked to order. While the variety isn't extensive, every bite is satisfying, especially the bowl of beef noodles, which is incredibly good! The room's simple and elegant decor perfectly reflects the ancient city's style. No matter how exhausted you are from exploring, returning to the courtyard provides a truly relaxing and tranquil experience. Overall, it was a truly wonderful two-day stay. I'd especially like to thank Ms. Dong Yanxia (I think that's her name) for her patient, meticulous, and attentive service, which has left me and my family with wonderful memories of this holiday!
