★★★★★ 9.2 (3,287 reviews)

"Extremely satisfied! Every day, drinks, teas, coffee capsules are replenished, and the room is cleaned meticulously. The mattress is also super comfortable. The staff are very polite and always greet you. They provide L'Occitane toiletries, which, while not super expensive, show attention to detail and elevate the experience. The breakfast is lavish and starts at 7 AM; I recommend going early as it can get crowded. The restaurant downstairs is delicious, affordable, and no waiting in line – fantastic!"

Yunzhong Chaoran Pavilion (Huayan Temple Branch, Datong Ancient Town)

📍 No. L15 Courtyard, Fuxueli, Yunlu Street, Pingcheng District, Datong
★★★★ 9.7 (390 reviews)

"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."

"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."

📍 No. 14 Courtyard, Jiaojia Lane, Pingcheng District, Datong
★★★★ 9.6 (45 reviews)

"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."

"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

"The hotel's location is superb; it's the perfect choice for exploring the old city, with all the sights and great food nearby. The hotel is very clean, the restaurant food is delicious, and the staff provide excellent service. As I was traveling alone and wanted to try local specialties, the staff kindly reduced the portion sizes, which was great – tasty and no waste! The room facilities are new, but there's a minor issue: the sink and shower are in separate areas, and the bath towels are kept under the sink. This makes it inconvenient to grab a towel after showering. If you take it into the shower beforehand, there's nowhere to hang it. Perhaps a hook could be added?"

Garden Hotel Hotels in Datong

Garden Hotel

"Centrally located in the ancient city, right next to Gulou, and within walking distance to attractions like Jiulongbi, Huayan Temple, and Daiwangfu. Great food options like Longjuxiang are also nearby. It's so convenient to pop back to the hotel for a rest when you're tired before continuing your sightseeing. The hotel staff are all very polite and always greet you with a smile. The hotel is very clean, and the drinks in the mini-fridge are surprisingly affordable, even cheaper than outside! We specially tried the recommended Chinese restaurant, and the food was delicious, especially the ribs – so tender they practically melt in your mouth, absolutely amazing. I was very satisfied with this stay and hope the hotel continues to thrive."

"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! 💯"

Lihao International Hotel Hotels in Datong

Lihao International Hotel

"In the morning, I saw the sunrise over Hengshan Mountain from the 20th-floor buffet restaurant. In the evening, fireworks lit up the street outside my window. Enjoying a cup of coffee by the electronic bonfire at midday was the most pleasant moment. I spent an unforgettable Spring Festival holiday in Huai'ren, Shanxi. Thumbs up to Ms. Cheng at the front desk, Ms. Tang in room service, and Ms. Mulan in the breakfast restaurant for their meticulous and thoughtful service! 👍"

Wan Tu · Yunqi Mountain Villa (Datong Ancient City Branch)

"I've been to Datong many times, always staying in chain hotels because I'm worried about the hygiene of guesthouses. But this guesthouse I stumbled upon was a wonderful surprise! It was incredibly clean, the facilities were new, and it was very quiet! The room wasn't big, but the owner's attention to detail was evident in every detail! I'm a bit of a clean freak, and the cleanliness was truly remarkable! The owner and front desk staff were also very welcoming and attentive, practically always ready to help! It's right next to the Prince Dai's Mansion, and there are electric scooters for rent right outside, which is very convenient! My eight-year-old son absolutely loved it! I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Datong!"

Wyndham Grand Plaza Royale , Datong ★★★★★
"Wyndham Grand Hotel Datong 1. The hotel's facilities are top-notch. 2. I experienced both the 'Forest Realm' and 'Memphis' room types, and both were absolutely perfect. The rooms are spacious, and the toiletries are L'Occitane. My children loved it so much that they didn't want to leave the room, preferring to play inside all day. 3. A special shout-out to the room attendant, Li Yuxi. She is incredibly kind and nice, and her work is meticulous and thoughtful. 4. The lobby staff were also very patient. Downsides: The breakfast was genuinely very crowded and quite chaotic. The restaurant staff, from the noodle station attendant to those handling dish collection, were frankly not professional enough. It felt completely out of sync with the service philosophy expected of a five-star hotel's software configuration. With so many diners, it was noisy and messy, almost like a free-for-all."

"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!"

"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!"

"We spent four tonight's in Datong hotel, although this hotel's grandeur is somewhat jaded,we still felt we were staying somewhere special. Thoroughly enjoyed our balcony overlooking the gardens at the entrance. What impressed us most of all was the restaurant in the adjoining Grand Hotel. After a month, travelling in China,this was the most delicious and interesting food we encountered. It was so good we ate there each night and it gave us the opportunity to try a varied range of Chinese dishes. Datong was a really wonderful place to spend a few days, and I would highly recommend it."
