Inns in Shanxi, China

A rather mediocre experience. I've been a Ctrip member for 15 years and rarely leave bad reviews, so I'll give this a passing grade of 3.0. The main reasons for the average experience were: 1. My baby had a fever in the middle of the night and couldn't get up the next day. I wanted to take some breakfast back to the room, but they wouldn't allow it, and the staff's attitude was quite stiff. At over 1700 RMB for two nights for three adults and one child, the price wasn't cheap. Since the hotel couldn't be understanding towards me, I can't be understanding towards them in my rating. 2. There must be floor heating or central air conditioning, because the room was extremely dry, even drier than indoors in Beijing during the heating season.

Highly recommend this one !! The highlight of the trip was the staff. So kind! They picked us up from the train station and dropped us off the next day. It was amazing! They also stayed awake till late to give us take away breakfast for the next day. They are helpful with tips about the city and give you a map and infos. The hotel and the room are really nice. The only thing I’m slightly disappointed about is that by changing the reservation I lost my room upgrade and we were given a smaller one. But we didn’t ask for anything as they were really helpful with the other matters. Thank you!

I was so touched! Right after I got off the high-speed train, the inn owner was already waiting for me by the roadside in his car. Since cars can't enter the ancient city gate, the owner switched to an electric scooter and continued to take me to the inn, free of charge. The proprietress helped me carry my luggage to the second floor, which I felt really bad about, but was deeply moved by! I absolutely love the style of this room. After check-in, the proprietress grabbed a map and meticulously explained tips for exploring Pingyao Ancient City and important details to note, making everything very clear. I love Shanxi; I felt such attentive care here. When it was time to leave, the owner offered to drive me to the high-speed train station again. I felt embarrassed and decided to leave early and take a taxi to the station myself, then informed the owner via WeChat. He immediately asked if I had gotten into the car yet, offering to drive me if I hadn't. Oh, I was so moved! I told him I had really gotten into a car and didn't need him to drive, wishing his business prosperity and continued success! For anyone planning a trip to Pingyao Ancient City, choose this place; it's very reliable, you won't go wrong!

This hotel is located right in the old city, just a ten-minute walk to Daiwang Mansion and a one-minute walk to Huayan Temple, which is incredibly convenient. The owners are very warm and welcoming, and their service is excellent. They even offer complimentary fruit. The accommodations are great, with good soundproofing and all the necessary facilities. I highly recommend staying here.

The location is absolutely fantastic, right in the heart of the ancient city, offering a peaceful retreat amidst the bustling area. The room was comfortable and clean, the surroundings elegant, and the owner was incredibly welcoming, providing super helpful tips for exploring. A perfect stay! Great location, comfortable rooms, beautiful environment, and excellent service – if you're coming to Pingyao, you must stay at this 'Bie Chu Xian Ya' branch.

This inn is located right in the heart of the ancient city, making it incredibly convenient for sightseeing and getting around. It's just a stone's throw away from major attractions like the County Government Office, the city walls, the Escort Agency, the Exchange House, and Xietongqing. Step right outside and you'll find a street full of delicious food, creative cultural shops, and bars. Despite being so central, it's very quiet at night. The rooms are well-equipped, and the price is very reasonable. Highly recommended!

Pros: Xiao li can pick us up upon arrival at high speed rail station and send us there on departure day. Breakfast is nice as well. On the day we had to depart earlier at 6.10am, he prep simple food items like milk, bread etc Xiaoli also went through the places we can visit and food places to eat t He can also book attractions like 再见平遥 with discount eg outside selling at 238 rmb, he can help us get for 202 rmb. Overall, hospitality is top-notch. Surprise : Xiaoli gave us vinegar foc. 😘

The place is very beautiful and it's inside the ancient old town so it's very easy and convenient to walk around. The owners are very kind, they picked us up and dropped us at the train station. The breakfast was delicious and plenty. The room is so beautiful and clean, probably one of the best where we stayed during our China trip. Definitely recommend this place and will stay here again if we come back to Pingyao.

The room facilities were fully equipped and extremely comfortable. The front desk staff, especially a young lady, was very welcoming, patient, and meticulous in answering our questions and offering recommendations. Thanks to her, our trip was truly worthwhile, allowing us to fully experience the ancient charm of Pingyao Ancient City.

The hotel is located just within the old town after the north gate. The hotel is well decorated with a beautiful garden. The hotel room was clean and spacious. The hotel staff are superb friendly and helpful. In one of the nights in 平遥古城, I had left a shop without my haversack after my meal at the old town. I only recalled about my haversack when I returned to the hotel. Immediately, I reported the incident to the hotel staff. Without hesitation, the hotel staff 小武 brought me back to the said shop with his own bike in a cold weather. Although we managed to locate the shop, however, it had already closed for business and there was no people in the shop. It was nearly midnight at that time . Even though i didn’t manage to recover my haversack (cuz i needed to leave the town to another destination early in that morning), I sincerely appreciate 小武 for helping me to find my haversack. He also suggested to me to lodge a Police report so that my lost item could be recovered by mailing it back to my hometown. It was a good idea but I didn’t do it cuz the belongings in the bag were not valuable and nothing important. Once again , I really want to thank 小武 for his patience and service rendered to me. Cheers! 👍
