Boasting free bikes and views of inner courtyard, Pingyao Hu lu wa Home Inn is a guest house set in a historic building in Pingyao, 300 metres from Qingxu Guan. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, a 24-hour front desk and a shared kitchen, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The guest house has family rooms and facilities for disabled guests. Super friendly and serviceminded host, employees and host family. Beautiful traditional guesthouse in a quiet street inside the walls of the old city. The breakfast was very nice, the backyard was very well decorated and calming. Our taxi driver from the train station called the guesthouse, so the owner came and picked up the luggage into the ancient city. Highly recommended . Thank you. PS: I forgot to deliver one key, I will send it to you.

Popular points of interest near Pingyao Jiaxin Guesthouse include North First Escort, Ancient Dwellings Expo Garden and Huiwulin Traditional Wushu Gallery. Taiyuan Wusu International Airport is 93 km away. Totally amazing place to stay! Highly recommended. First of all, it is only 7 mins walk from the ancient city of pangyao. It is also so nearby the railway station. You can go by DIDI or bus, both are so convenient. Second, the decor of the place is AMAZING! I couldn’t help take pictures and video when i first came it. They even have a swing and glass-fish! The staff are so friendly and nice people. The Owner gave me water when i first came and when i left. Whenever i ask for anything she always helps. They have bar and food there with nice prices. I didn’t eat there but saw the food, it looked so delicious. The rooms were also amazing, it is two levels bed and mine was the one above. Surprisingly, it was so comfortable too. When i move it doesn’t vibrate into the bottom bed. The toilet is clean and they have shower gel, hair shampoo, small towel, and toothbrush with toothpaste ready for you to use. The air conditioner works fine and the wi-fi is connected from my room.

Guests staying at this guest house have access to a patio. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, full-day security and luggage storage for guests. The best hotel I have ever stayed in. Amazing location, right in the center of ancient town of Pingyao but still very quiet. The room is very beautiful, clean and there is all you need for a comfortable stay. Ji is amazing. I highly recommend a short or longer stay at the Ji Family Courtyard Inn.

Featuring a garden, Pingyao Cloudy Guest House is located in Pingyao in the Shanxi region, 200 metres from Lei Lutai Residence and 600 metres from Pingyao Ancient Government Office. This property is situated a short distance from attractions such as Tongxinggong Escort Agency, Ming and Qing Street, and China Rare Newspaper Exhibition Hall. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, a shuttle service, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. I had a wonderful stay and a great travel experience thanks to the amazing owner. 1. They offered a pick-up service, which was very convenient since private cars are not allowed inside the old town. 2. We received plenty of restaurant coupons, maps, and travel tips. 3. There was no push to upsell services, but whenever we needed something, the owner provided a perfect solution at a very fair price. 4. The house is well-maintained, full of character, and has a rich historical charm. 5. After we checked out, we still had several hours before our train, and they kindly offered us a place to rest. I would definitely come back again if I have the chance!

Set in Pingyao in the Shanxi Region, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Xiangshengyuan Hostel features a terrace and views of the city. Free WiFi is available throughout the property and free maps of Pingyao is offered. This is a family-run hotel with the whole family pitching in. They were delightful and keen to be helpful with lots of cups of tea, advice and assistance with purchasing tickets. It felt like I was staying with friends. Very little english, but fearless with using translation apps. Very thoughtful - gave me a bottle of water for the train home after dropping me at the station. The standout for this property was the staff. I wish them every success with their business.

Coming with local setup, each room here will provide you with a cable TV and air conditioning. Complete with an electric kettle, the dining area also has a dining table. Wooden bed with Chinese red quilt and a small table, wooden furniture and candle light create cosy ambience. The traditional Kang bed would ensure a nice sleeping experience. Featuring a shower, bathroom also comes with a hairdryer and free toiletries. Service was great. We were picked up at the parking lot with a shuttle bus. Dinner in the hotel was perfect and delicious. They even offered gluten free food! The owner family were very friendly and supported us in any situation. We strongly recommend this hotel as it is a pleasure to stay there. We surely will come back, when we are around this area again.
