4-Star Hotels in Datong

I spent a long time choosing this guesthouse on Ctrip. What attracted me was its: airport/train station pick-up and drop-off service, special breakfast, proximity to taxis, elevator, laundry room, smart toilet, separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom, water dispenser, fruit and drinks, and foot bath. I stayed two nights and would recommend it to friends; the twin room was incredibly spacious. The owner's mom makes amazing bread! She even packed it up for us when we left. The owner also helped with laundry, drying, and neatly folding our clothes before bringing them to our room. It's very convenient for those driving, as it's close to the parking garage entrance. I ate at Wei Zhuang Datong Restaurant nearby twice, and I thought it was even better than Feng Ling Ge. There were several weddings in the area over the past two days; I could hear the electronic fireworks every day.

This boutique hotel is conveniently located in the old City. The hotel staff are very friendly and even fetched us from the train station. Hotel room is spacious and comfortable. I accidentally dropped a ring in the lobby and the staff picked up and returned to me. Very pleasant staff and highly recommended.

Terrible! I strongly object to secretly leaving positive reviews using a customer's phone. I will definitely leave a positive review if asked, but doing so secretly is going too far. I stayed two nights and placed two separate orders. The first night, I arrived at the hotel at 11 PM, and the door lock wouldn't lock, and the security zipper was missing. The staff tried to fix it, but couldn't. I had to make do for the night without being able to change rooms. The second night, I called to ask for a room change, and they readily agreed and even gave me a gift (two bags of cold noodles and three drinks). My stay was very pleasant. On the third day, when I checked out, the front desk, perhaps afraid of leaving a bad review, asked me to leave a positive review. I said okay, I was in a rush to catch my flight, I'd leave it later. The front desk then said, ”Could you please pull up your Ctrip order so I can check it?” When I handed the phone back, I saw them tap it and return it to me. I realized they had left a positive review. I was in a hurry to get to the airport and didn't have time to leave one. I find this behavior very offensive. Do they treat their customers like dirt? This is the first time I've encountered such an employee among all the Manxin stores nationwide. Shouldn't we improve the quality of our employees?

The place is very clean, and the environment is really cozy, making for a very comfortable stay. The shower pressure is fantastic, I'm very satisfied, it's such great value! The staff (specifically, a young lady) was very welcoming and even thoughtfully prepared breakfast for us. Five-star recommendation!

The location is truly unbeatable. It's inside the ancient city but not right in the middle, offering both convenience and peace and quiet. They even have their own underground parking, which is perfect for those driving. Getting in and out of the ancient city by car is a breeze with no traffic jams, and walking to the city center is super easy! The ambiance here is so charming and historic, it really sets the mood, and the courtyard is fantastic for photos. The service is warm and attentive, and the room was cleaned thoroughly every day. If I ever come back to Datong, I'll definitely choose to stay here again.

The brand really makes a difference; the quality is truly guaranteed. I've stayed at Huazhu before in Zhejiang, but this was my first time at Lux, and it's definitely a cut above. First off, the decor is incredibly distinctive – the furniture, bedding, oil paintings, and everything else show exceptional taste. The service was also incredibly thoughtful; they patiently explained local delicacies and sightseeing tips. Breakfast was great too, especially the knife-cut noodles, which tasted just as good as any outside noodle shop. We even made coffee soap! It's very convenient for visiting Daiwang Mansion and Huayan Temple. Highly recommended!

I booked a twin room for the summer. First, the good points: The hotel is very new, and there's a common area on the third floor atrium with a nice environment. The washing machines are good. Breakfast was great, and the breakfast staff and front desk personnel were very friendly. They provided toilet seat covers, which was excellent. It's about a 15-minute taxi ride to the ancient city, which isn't too far. Not far from the hotel, there's a main branch of a noodle shop where local residents have lunch and dinner. Now, for the downsides: Some rooms overlook the parking lot, so you might occasionally hear some car noise, but it's not too disruptive. The sink is right by the entrance, which makes the room feel a bit cramped, and the toilet is quite close to the bed. Overall, the price isn't expensive, and the service is good. There are a few minor drawbacks, but they are acceptable. I recommend Du Ji Sunit Hot Pot, about 2-3 kilometers away, and Long Ju Xiang's takeaway for milk skin yogurt!

Finally checked out Mercure 2.0, and the overall experience was excellent. Upon entering the lobby, you're greeted by a unique French fragrance, paired with soothing chandelier music, instantly relieving travel fatigue. The lobby bookshelves and curved seating create a great atmosphere, perfect for taking photos. The guest room features earth-toned furnishings with soft, pleasing rounded designs. The gradual lighting without a main light is a thoughtful touch. The Sealy mattress and down pillows ensured a good night's sleep. The bathroom was spacious, the shower had consistent water pressure, and the toiletries smelled luxurious. Self-check-in was quick, and the robot delivery service was very convenient. The breakfast was a highlight, featuring temperature-controlled French bread, a mix of Western and Chinese options, and a variety of flavors. A 24-hour gym and self-service laundry facilities are readily available, making it suitable for both leisure and business trips. The overall environment was quiet, clean, and the service was attentive – highly recommended.

Traveling to Datong and blindly picking Fangxiangxuan B&B turned out to be an absolute hidden gem! It was hands down the biggest surprise of the entire trip, and I'm genuinely not just hyping it up. I was worried when booking because B2 sounded like a dark basement, but my worries completely vanished upon arrival—the air is fresh and it even comes with a little courtyard. After staying here, I just want to fiercely recommend it to everyone planning a trip to Datong. I fell in love with the courtyard at first sight. The traditional Chinese garden vibe is off the charts, meticulously kept and impeccably clean, with flowers and plants arranged just right. After a tiring day of exploring the ancient city, sitting in the courtyard for a bit, feeling the breeze, and zoning out instantly heals all travel fatigue. Plus, every snap is a masterpiece without even trying to find the right angle—your social media feeds will be fully stocked! A major shoutout to the cleanliness! It's the kind of immaculate that would make even a perfectionist give a thumbs-up. Every single corner of the room is spotless, the bedding is soft and crisp, and the mattress isn't that mushy kind that ruins your back. The bathroom is dry and odorless, and the floor is so clean I dared to walk around barefoot. You can tell the staff put real heart into it, not just a superficial show; sincerity shines through every detail. The amenities also completely exceeded expectations—fully equipped, thoughtful, and with brand-new, easy-to-use hardware. It's comfortable and hassle-free, blending traditional aesthetics with modern comfort without sacrificing the living experience for the sake of looks. That is truly rare. The biggest bonus has to be the manager and the entire staff—warm, welcoming, and yet completely tactful! They never over-disturb, but respond super fast whenever you need anything. They patiently answer questions and offer thoughtful local sightseeing and dining tips. Getting along with them feels like hanging out with an old friend, warm and relaxed with zero awkwardness. I was worried about feeling restrained while traveling, but Fangxiangxuan gave me the ultimate at-home chill vibe. The little welcome card was so heartwarming, and the handwriting was gorgeous too. When traveling, pretty houses are easy to find, and clean B&Bs are not rare either, but genuine, attentive service and a courtyard that lets you shed all your fatigue are truly hard to come by. Fangxiangxuan has officially raised my standards for Datong B&Bs. If you're coming to Datong and want a comfortable, worry-free, and heartwarming courtyard stay, just book Fangxiangxuan blindly! This will definitely be my top choice again next time I'm in Datong, and I'm already looking forward to my stay here with my besties next month!!

This is my second stay here! It's very close to the ancient city, about a 10-minute taxi ride away, and also about 10 minutes from Datong South Station. The hotel has a high star rating, and the butler service is attentive and warm. The rooms are well-equipped with everything you need. It's truly perfect for families, as it allows for separate resting areas while also providing space to work. A big shoutout to the lamb offal soup with vermicelli at breakfast – it was delicious!
