Datong Jixiashan · SUNYATA Resort Hotel
"Staying at Ji Xia Shan for four days and three nights in Datong was an absolute delight, a truly pleasant surprise! It was my first experience with the Ji Xia Shan brand, and I'm already looking forward to visiting Meili! We stayed in the Dieyin Courtyard room, which had a small private courtyard. Each tree in the room and throughout the hotel had a tag identifying its species – such a cute little detail. The room's snacks and fruits were refreshed daily, and the nightly sweet soups were never repeated. The first night was bird's nest soup, the second was corn soup, and the third was brown sugar peach gum. Breakfast was a semi-buffet, with small portions allowing us to sample many dishes, which was great for avoiding waste. For our anniversary, the hotel specially decorated our room and even gifted us a delicious, freshly made cake. We felt a bit bad that we couldn't finish it all and caused some waste. The hotel's overall design creates a comfortable and cozy atmosphere, bringing a sense of peace and tranquility. It feels full of positive energy, with its water features and swaying tree shadows exuding vitality and spirit. The staff are all young, well-groomed, and professional ladies and gentlemen. They are warm, generous, and their service is natural and friendly, which was very endearing. Stepping out of the hotel, the view is expansive, directly facing the eastern city wall. Downstairs are Dongnanyi and the hotel's own Yungang Art Museum. During our trip, we caught the 'Pine Under the Mountain' exhibition and learned that the brand's founder is actually from Shanxi. Datong itself is a fantastic city. Besides its numerous ancient buildings that are a feast for the eyes, it has a rich, comfortable, and natural local atmosphere. 😌"
Renyi Inn
"First off, the location is great! In the center of the ancient city, but at night we don’t hear the crowds outside! The hosts were lovely and very accommodating. I am traveling with 7 family members and they all had an amazing time. The rooms were extremely clean and the hosts were hospitable. When we needed ice packs, cold water, they delivered them and gave us some to go. The courtyard in the center was beautiful, with birds, fish, peacocks. Everyday we enjoyed tea and fresh fruit!"
Howard Johnson Plaza Jindi
Offering world-class sophistication in the city centre, this elegant international destination is famous for its outstanding wellness facilities and panoramic views of the developing skyline.
Datong Onetwo Hotel（Datong ancient city Daiwangfu shop）
"Our family of four spent one night in Datong to break our week in Beijing, and this hotel was such a breath of fresh air from our more "utilitarian" hotel in the capital. We stayed in the Lushun room. It was modern, clean, airy, and had good room temperature control despite being the shoulder season. Highly recommended if staying there with kids, as they can have their own separate area and parents can truly relax. We didn't try breakfast, though, as it's a 10-minute walk away, and we just wanted to rest in the morning. We just ordered food in."
Dadan Hotel
"I initially booked for one night but I decided to stay for another night. Total two nights in the same room. Room is very clean, very quiet and the bed was superb, I slept very well. Staff super friendly and helpful. Hotel's location is about 10mins taxi from the old town centre but it is very convenient. If you don't like super crowded area with noisy street vendors and many tourists, I would recommend this place. I personally really enjoyed staying at this hotel, will definitely stay here again if I come back to Datong in future."
Longxuan Residence Light Luxury Elegant Accommodation
"The hotel is located close to a lively area, making it very convenient to explore nearby shops and restaurants. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. They kindly picked us up at the railway station and helped us arrange a car rental to visit Xuankong Temple, Yingxian Wooden Pagoda, and the Yungang Grottoes. The breakfast was also delicious and a great way to start the day. Their hospitality and assistance made our trip much easier and more enjoyable."
Yunzhong Chaoran Pavilion (Huayan Temple Branch, Datong Ancient Town)
"This hotel is a real treat! A beautiful hotel with large rooms, an excellent breakfast and outstanding service. Highly recommend staying at Yunzhong Chaoran. Thank you for a fantastic stay."
Nanshe Courtyard | Designer Vacation Homestay (Datong Ancient City Huayan Temple Branch)
"We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The staff were kind, attentive, and always ready to help. One day, we had to leave early for a tour and were going to miss breakfast and the hotel thoughtfully prepared snacks to take along, which was such a considerate gesture. The room was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. The bed and shower were excellent. And breakfast is also very good. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area."

"I rarely leave reviews, but this trip was truly wonderful ☺️ Everything exceeded my expectations. The environment was beautiful, every photo turned out great, and the service was excellent.

youqing hotei
"This hotel offers a fantastic overall experience. The service is thoughtful and attentive, and the staff are incredibly warm and welcoming. The room was spotlessly clean, very spacious, and well-equipped. They even have a kids' play area! There's a great selection of snacks, a coffee machine, and a rich variety of breakfast options, including the delicious Datong-style knife-cut noodles and lamb offal soup, which were highlights. The location is also excellent, making travel and getting around incredibly convenient. My stay was comfortable and hassle-free. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I visit."
JinHuangQi Homestay (Huayan Temple in Datong Ancient City)
"The hygiene, environment, and service were all excellent. However, the facilities weren't perfect. The TV was on top of the sofa facing the door, making it awkward for children to watch. Also, the soaking tub was too small; it was very tiring for adults to use."
Wanxin International Hotel (Datong Wanda Plaza Branc
"Overall, this hotel in Datong has a pretty good environment and facilities, making for a comfortable stay. However, some minor details could be improved. For example, there were no shoe-shining supplies, which was a bit inconvenient. It's generally good, but I hope the hotel can pay more attention to these small details to enhance the guest experience."
Yu'an Jing Hotel
"The hotel, which was newly built this year, was recommended by Ctrip based on my preferences. It was labeled as a "healing hotel," and it was indeed comfortable and cozy. Not only was it comfortable, but the breakfast also had a wide variety of options, and the environment was clean and cozy!"
I Lai Hotel
"Fantastic Datong Stay! This hotel was a gem! From the start, the experience was warm, kicking off with complimentary noodles and coffee—a lovely welcome treat. The staff is exceptional. Even without speaking Chinese, their warm attention was constant. A huge thank you to Rachel and her colleagues! They were an absolute A-Plus for English speakers and flawlessly handled booking my local bus to the Xuankong Temple and Yungang Grottoes. Truly lifesavers! The location is perfect, being just minutes away and easily walkable to both Datong Old Town and the magnificent City Walls. For convenience, there are plenty of local restaurants and a handy convenience store right nearby. The room itself was spacious, spotlessly clean, and refreshingly smoke-free, and the bed was very comfortable. It was great that we could slightly open the window to manage the heat and humidity. (Just a small note: I do prefer a standard showerhead to the rain shower, but that's minor!)"
