Howard Johnson Plaza Jindi

Best hotel in datong, in city centre near ancient wall, very kind front desk receptionist, friendly staff all around, always ready to assist you, older hotel, don't worry, it's very classy and elegant. Highly recommended

Spacious room, clean and comfortable. Breakfasts were more than adequate with a choice of varieties. Hotel location was ok just outside the wall though neighbouring shops were all shuttered. Taxis plentiful and inexpensive. Nightly dinner was at the hotel restaurant - good food, surprisingly very affordable prices and extremely good services from the staff. What stood out most were the very helpful, cheerful staff, at the front desk, restaurants, and cleaners!

This is not a 5 star hotel. Although it's close to the old city wall, it's a 30 minute walk to the old city center. The cleaning lady woke us up despite the "do not disturb" sign (she knocked non-stop for 5 minutes!). We showed her the sign and she asked if we wanted some fruit. I was so mad! The reason I pay for the hotel, is to sleep! Also we found a lot of hairs on the floor, on the bed... It's not clean. The gym and pool are gloomy, the lights turned off. The lobby staff are excellent and helpful, but we won't stay here again.

The hotel is dated but the service and amenities make it five stars. Pool is pretty sad though. Probably the best location in Datong.

Beautiful and very big room, comfortable bed, amazing breakfast. Very good value for money

Staff were friendly and went the extra mile to make me comfortable. They were also able to arrange a private car last minute to take me to Xunkong Temple and the Yungang Grottoes. Love the VR headset and tea in the room!
