"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!"

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.

"The rooms are lovely and beautifully designed, and the location is excellent. All three courtyards are tastefully decorated, and the breakfast is delicious. Every staff member was wonderful.

Rui Feng Hotel Hotels in Datong

Rui Feng Hotel

"We had a very pleasant stay in this hotel. The staff members were very helpful and attentive. Breakfast was also very good! Our room was comfy and spacious, the only problem we had with it was that it felt too hot for us even with the aircon/heating off and right before we left we could feel some bad smell coming from the pipes. We didn't report this as we were leaving but we're sure the hotel would have helped and sorted this for us (they offered changing our room when we said it was too hot for us, for example). The location of the hotel was very useful to explore the ancient city and the hotel helped us book a private car to see the grottoes and hanging temple - great experience! We'd consider staying here again if/when we visit Dating again. :)"

Datong Jixiashan · SUNYATA Resort Hotel Hotels in Datong

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. 😌"

"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."

Garden Hotel Hotels in Datong

Garden Hotel

"Extremely satisfied! The location is fantastic, making it easy to pop back to the hotel for a break when visiting city attractions, no taxi needed. The service was excellent; buckwheat pillows and other items I requested were delivered to my room promptly. I also had a chance to try out the recreation center. The food was delightful. After trying several restaurants, I still preferred the flavors at Garden Hotel the most. I had two dinners and three breakfasts, and all were very much to my liking."

Xi Yue Hotel Hotels in Datong

Xi Yue Hotel

"First, the pros: the rooms were large, nice, and clean. 👌 The cons: the lobby was messy, and many people were smoking there. 🚬 The hot spring tickets were included, but we couldn't get in because it was too crowded; they told us to come back in the morning. The elevator smelled strongly of rotten cafeteria food. The breakfast food was mediocre. This isn't the chain Joya Hotel; it's a bathhouse hotel."

Yunzhong Chaoran Pavilion (Huayan Temple Branch, Datong Ancient Town) ★★★★
"The location of the hotel is good, easy access from main road to get big bags to it and also to go around the ancient city both during day and night time to enjoy all the landmarks. Missing signages make it a bit difficult to find the hotel at first. Also, while we had paid for a bigger rooms the room barely had walking space. It had no luggage storage space or cabinet. The washroom and room floor was not cleaned. Staff on the other hand are very friendly and willing to help with all the questions - on local travel, places to see, vegetarian food, etc. They find a way to help to the best. All in all was a good experience and would have been better with some adjustments."

"The experience was terrible. 1. The projector kept turning on for no reason, and I had to unplug it in the end; 2. I came back at 11:30 pm and wanted to take a shower, but found the toilet was out of power. Considering it was late, I used my phone to turn on the light while I showered; 3. I found there was an electrical leak in the sink when I washed my hair in the morning."

Four Points by Sheraton Datong Pingcheng (Datong Ancient City) ★★★★
"The hotel's location is excellent, within walking distance to the center of Datong Ancient City. Fahua Temple, Nine-Dragon Wall, and Huayan Temple are all nearby. Kailu Restaurant inside the ancient city is quite good, while Fengling Pavilion is just okay. The room is spacious and very clean, and they even provided 2 complimentary drinks in the fridge. There's an underground parking garage with free parking; just scan a code when you leave. I personally really enjoyed the lamb offal soup with rice noodles for breakfast, ordered it two days in a row. The fruit was fresh and tasty. If you like street food, there's plenty right across the road, and it seemed quite popular. Overall, highly recommended."
