The hotel has its own playground and swimming pool, and the kids didn't want to leave. The buffet breakfast had a dedicated children's area, offering nutritious and healthy options.

"The hotel looks very luxurious, and the breakfast restaurant is beautiful with a fountain. However, for such great facilities, I didn't expect the floors to be so thin. I could hear people walking upstairs all night – it was so noisy! The service was also really subpar, especially in the breakfast restaurant. I'm not sure if the staff are shared with Yungang. Anyway, the staff at the noodle and egg station, particularly the one furthest from the entrance to the restaurant, were awful. They were off-duty during breakfast, with only one person frying eggs while the noodle chef was nowhere to be found. They eventually showed up much later. With so many guests, their movements were incredibly slow. Even the staff clearing tables were much quicker than them. Honestly, it was off-putting and made me lose my appetite. The breakfast food was also terrible and completely didn't match the hotel's supposed luxury. Having traveled extensively, I usually find that upscale hotels offer better food than average ones, but Wyndham really reset my expectations. I felt like I was eating pig feed. You don't even need me to tell you; just look at how much food guests left on their tables, uneaten. That alone tells you how bad it was – good food wouldn't be left untouched. I even saw a whole bowl of noodles left on a table after guests had left. We genuinely didn't want to waste food; it was just genuinely awful. I truly felt like I was eating pig feed. They didn't treat us like people, showed no respect for us, and seemed to think anything edible was fine, never considering the taste."

"Every time I visit Datong, I choose to stay here. I mean, if it's good enough for central government leaders visiting Datong, how bad could it be? The rooms at Datong Hotel aren't huge and the facilities are a bit old, but staying here feels open and comfortable. This might be due to the thick walls and simple design of the older building, which means less mutual interference and a very quiet night's sleep. Just a couple of suggestions: could the fountain in the courtyard be turned off earlier in the evening, and could the music from the speakers in the courtyard be a bit softer? I chose this hotel for its peace and quiet, so it feels unnecessary and counterproductive for the hotel to create noise."

"We booked the Embassy Suite for a night. The room was very spacious, and the beds were comfortable and clean. However, the toiletries and amenities (no fridge for example) are very dated. The staff were very nice and welcoming and the location is perfect, very close to the old city and easy to get in and out of Datong. If they would maintain the rooms a bit this can be a great stay."

"The hotel breakfast was exceptionally good; I had planned to just grab a quick bite but was pleasantly surprised. I was debating between a light or full anesthesia early in the morning [humorous way of saying it was so good, it was mind-blowing]. Dinner was also great, offering excellent value for money. For about 500 per person, you can have a really good meal, primarily Cantonese cuisine. Since it's summer, there are a lot of people, so I recommend eating at the hotel to avoid queues. They have a private parking lot, and their travel photography service is also quite good. Unlike other places that often have hidden charges or push you to buy more, here it's just 399 for all your photos, with no pressure to select more or request extra retouches. It's great that the hotel didn't raise prices during the summer. I recommend booking in advance, as it's usually fully booked every day."

"This hotel didn't have any ratings yet, but I chose it based on a few glowing reviews. First off, there's parking right in front of the hotel, and if that's full, they have their own parking lot just across the road, and a friendly security guard will show you the way. The lobby has coffee, snacks, and even a kids' play area. Each floor is neatly stocked with bottled water for guests to grab whenever they like. I was amazed when I entered my room – it was huge! 👍 The bathroom had a separate wet and dry area, smart fixtures, and the TV was enormous – casting to it was a blast. The room was clean and tidy. There's a laundry room and a restaurant on the 2nd floor. For this price, getting all these amenities is definitely worth it! 😁 Now for the important part: the service. From the security guard and the front desk ladies to the maintenance guys, the housekeeping staff, and the restaurant workers – everyone greeted us with a smile and a friendly hello when we came and went. When you're traveling, who doesn't want to feel happy every day? 😍 The location is great too; it's convenient for all the attractions and there are plenty of delicious and affordable food options nearby. This is definitely my top choice hotel in Datong. I hope they keep up the good work, and I'll definitely recommend it to my friends! 💯"

Shangdu  Hotel Hotels in Datong

Shangdu Hotel

"This hotel offers massage and bathing facilities. The rooms are spacious, and the bedding is quite comfortable. We were a large group, so we booked three rooms. In one room, the duvet cover felt a bit damp, probably due to the weather and not being dried thoroughly. We reported it, and they promptly replaced it. I particularly want to recommend the massages in the massage area; the technique was excellent, and the price was very reasonable. It was perfect for unwinding after a day of city walking. The only slight drawback is that the restaurant is shared with the adjacent eLong hotel, and the food there wasn't quite up to par."

"The hotel is conveniently located near Wuyue Plaza, offers free parking, and even has charging stations. The room was spacious and clean, and the smart amenities were a thoughtful touch. Overall, a great stay!"

"This was my first stay at a Howard Johnson hotel, and I was very impressed with the service at the front desk, restaurant, and fitness center. The staff were all warm and courteous. I stayed for three nights and dined exclusively at the hotel restaurants. The Chinese restaurant had great food and was excellent value for money. They delivered fruit to my room daily, and in the evenings, the housekeeping staff brought a complimentary sweet pear soup. Given how dry the weather is in Datong this month, the pear soup was a thoughtful touch and great for my throat. I really appreciate the hotel's considerate service."

"The location is excellent, making it easy to get around. While the facilities and cleanliness could use some improvement, the overall environment is lovely and unique, with plants, birds, and fish creating a charming atmosphere. Our room was a duplex, so the living and sleeping areas were separate, which was great. Plus, there's a sunlit atrium that makes it feel just like home. The host was fantastic and offered warm service, even providing seasonal food multiple times. I would definitely recommend this place."

"The hotel offered good value for the price, with decent facilities and a high level of cleanliness. The location was convenient for drop-off and walking into the city, which felt easygoing. I wasn't particularly keen on breakfast options, but maybe my taste and that did offer a western option that we didn’t try. Overall, it was a great experience for the cost & the staff Helen & Fenny were very helpful and made our trip easy and seamless."

"Stayed here for 3 days while visiting Datong. The room was spotlessly clean and well-ventilated, with no strange smells. The bedding was soft and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. There's a convenience store downstairs, and it's a short, direct taxi ride to all the attractions, which saved a lot of time. Overall, it was a very comfortable stay. The front desk staff were all lovely young ladies who provided very attentive service. I highly recommend staying here if you're visiting!"
