Romantic Hotels in Shanxi, China

The room was very clean and the environment was great. I stayed for three days in total. The landlady was very welcoming and brought fresh fruit every day. She even upgraded me to a room with a view of Huayan Temple, which I really appreciated. There were also many cute little birds in the small courtyard, and even two peacocks, making it feel like a mini zoo. Very satisfied.

The B&B is close to the North Gate, so it was pretty easy to find. The owner even picked me up from Pingyao Ancient City Station late at night, which I really appreciated – it made my travel experience so much better. They carefully explained the locations of attractions and gave me a map. When I left, they even gave me some vinegar as a gift; they're incredibly warm and welcoming. Seriously, if you're coming to Pingyao, you should definitely stay here, haha! It's safe, clean, and the facilities are all there. For longer stays, they even proactively clean your room. The decor has a local flair too – who wouldn't want to try sleeping on a traditional heated 'kang' bed without any fuss? Thanks for everything, I'll definitely stay here again next time. Loved it, loved it!

Before booking, I was most concerned about the air conditioning, and I finally got to experience it firsthand. Datong's heating supply runs until April 15th, a full month later than Tianjin. During the heating period, the hotel's air conditioning only provides heat, not cool air. So, contrary to what many online reviews suggested, I couldn't use the AC to cool the room and had to rely on opening the windows to alleviate the heat. However, I couldn't keep the windows open while sleeping, which left me feeling very dry and uncomfortable when I woke up. The first night of my stay was the second day of the Qingming holiday. When I showered that evening, the water pressure from the showerhead was pitifully low, so I had to make do with the handheld spray. Thankfully, the bathtub's water temperature was reliable. By the second night, with a drop in occupancy, both the breakfast service and the shower pressure were much better. The swimming pool is open from 6 AM to 9 PM. I feel it opens too early and closes too early. Wouldn't 8 AM to 11 PM be better? The hotel lobby is very spacious. Since Fenlin Pavilion is located in the Wyndham lobby, the Yungang side actually feels more upscale and grand. Fenlin Pavilion stops issuing numbers before 7:30 PM and closes at 9 PM. For lunch, they're open until 2 PM. Commercial facilities in Datong really aren't that competitive. There's no sliding door between the room's bathtub and the bed, so privacy is nonexistent. The omnipresent crystal chandeliers and mirrors give off a somewhat 'Middle Eastern prince' vibe. The sensor-activated nightlights near the floor get a hundred stars – they're incredibly convenient for midnight bathroom trips. Even a coffee machine and a refrigerator are provided. The breakfast's 'dao xiao mian' (knife-cut noodles) are a specialty, and the coffee is good. However, the dessert selection is meager, with only one or two options.

✨ The overall design of the room is full of sense, and the modern and simple style makes people shine. The ceiling lighting layout is reasonable, the atmosphere is warm and bright. The ground is clean and tidy, without any dust or stains. The bathroom is spacious, well-equipped, and the experience is very comfortable. The bedding is soft and the quality of sleep has improved a lot. The overall stay is very satisfactory, it is recommended 👍!

I've been to Xinzhou Ancient City a few times, and I genuinely feel that Futian Yuhua Hotel is the absolute best hotel here. The rooms are spotless, they deliver fresh fruit daily, and the beds are incredibly comfortable. The private hot spring bath experience was fantastic, and there was a constant supply of complimentary drinks every day. From the moment you step through the main entrance, you notice the incredible attention to detail – it's clear the owner has excellent taste. From the moment I called about parking, a butler was already waiting at the entrance. The service was warm and thoughtful. When leaving, they even reminded me to take a complimentary bottle of water and offered tissues, showing how much they genuinely care for their guests. On the day of check-in, I couldn't figure out the stopper for the hot spring pool, but after a quick call, someone came to help within less than a minute. I'll definitely be bringing my family back to stay here again in the future and will highly recommend it to my friends.

Excellent location, right by tourist attractions and next to a mall, making dining and shopping super convenient. A pleasant surprise was the complimentary afternoon tea for two and evening cocktails for hotel guests. You can also enjoy views of the Ferris wheel at night. The front desk is on the 40th floor, and all drinks, like coffee and tea, are free. The room was very clean and quiet, with a great layout. It was a very enjoyable trip. I'd call this the king of value-for-money stays!

This B&B in Pingyao is amazing! It has seven large courtyards (five entrances) and an elegant and grand environment. The owner is friendly and helpful, helping with discounts on tickets to nearby attractions, recommending places to eat, and providing maps for the free shuttle bus. The makeup in the photos taken by the hostel (the seventh courtyard) is also beautiful, and the person who took the photos has a very ladylike temperament. The house is large and tidy, the kang is unique and very comfortable to sleep on, and the bathroom is also new and clean. Very, very good.

The hotel lobby is absolutely stunning. Day and night, you face the serene Huayan Temple and watch the crowds in the square. It got colder today, but the afternoon sun was pleasantly warm. Room: I stayed in the Huayan room, the closest one to Huayan Temple. The room looked exactly like the hotel pictures – what you see is what you get. My only minor gripe is that the window is a bit small and faces the replica eaves of the ancient buildings in the square. The details outside the window aren't great; there's an unpeeled protective film on the outer window and a thick electrical wire dangling outside. Facilities: The 'Xiaodu' smart assistant is quite good. However, casting to the TV requires using 'Meibo,' which is really inconvenient. The bathroom is excellent; both the overhead and handheld showerheads can be used simultaneously, making for a very comfortable shower. The faucet design is also great, and there's a thoughtful clothesline in the shower area. The hotel has a laundry room available until 9 PM. Service: I stayed for four days and met six staff members – three men and three women – all incredibly polite. You can tell their service is thoughtful: on the first day, I had knife-cut noodles for breakfast. I didn't mention I don't eat cilantro or green onions, but they disappeared from my breakfast dishes in the following days. The evening foot bath tub is very comfortable, and the foot soak sachet contains red dates, Sichuan peppercorns, and astragalus (couldn't identify the others). The hotel's sea buckthorn juice and astragalus water are also good. Yesterday, I overheard a guest at the front desk complaining about the service, but honestly, it's quite good. When you call, a staff member will always come up to help with luggage. Dining: Breakfast is a set meal, and after a few days, it does get a bit repetitive. However, the knife-cut noodles and rice vermicelli are good, and the siu mai is also tasty. I hope they can vary the side dishes and pastries in the future, maybe offer some fried dough sticks or something... I also have to mention the hot drinks at the front desk: the latte is much, much better than Starbucks, probably because of the quality of the milk. Transportation: Transportation is very convenient; it's easy to get anywhere. I'll definitely come back next time, and I'd like to try a duplex room, haha. It wasn't crowded on Monday, so I peeked into a few empty rooms, and almost every duplex was unique.

Mu Qingchen: A time surprise under the ancient city wall, a perfect place for anniversaries When the hustle and bustle of cars and horses is gently blocked by the towering city walls, Mu Qingchen stands quietly in the deep alleys of Dongnanyi, becoming an unexpected surprise on our family's anniversary trip. Pushing the window is the quaint courtyard and mottled brick walls. In the morning, you are awakened by the wind chimes on the eaves, and at night you fall asleep quietly with the ancient city as your pillow - this unique time charm of Datong is the most moving background of Mu Qingchen. The warm easter egg of the anniversary, the heartstrings are quietly plucked! The moment you push the door, the carefully decorated room instantly lights up the atmosphere of the anniversary: the soft and warm light strings fall like stars, the petals on the bed are pieced into a heart pattern, and the handwritten greeting cards are sincere. This sense of ritual that far exceeds expectations makes the ordinary check-in moment sublimate into a precious memory anchor. The children's surprised cheers and the smile in the eyes of the lover are the best response to this intention. In the hinterland of Dongnanyi, you can enter the thousand-year-old picture scroll of the ancient city by pushing the window. The greatest charm of Mu Qingchen is that it is located in the beating ”heart” of the ancient city - Southeast Town. When you get up in the morning and take a stroll, you will be immersed in the fireworks of the city. Special restaurants, cultural and creative shops, and ancient courtyards are lined up. It takes a short walk to reach the magnificent Huayan Temple, and it is also close to climb the city wall to overlook the magnificent ancient city. This irreplaceable location gift allows us to truly ”live in the scenery”. Mu Qingchen is far more than a place to sleep for a night. It uses the bricks and tiles of the ancient city as paper and the caring service as ink to write a chapter of the anniversary full of warmth and surprises for us. If you are eager to find a place with convenience, style and humanistic care in the thousand-year texture of Datong, Mu Qingchen will be a name that lives up to your expectations in your journey - it understands the weight of ritual, and knows how to make the laughter of a family echo for a long time under the ancient city wall.
