Datong Hotels with Kitchens

"My child absolutely loved this room! Besides being spacious, it was incredibly well-equipped. They even provided free earplugs and makeup remover wipes, not to mention complimentary tricycles and bicycles for exploring the ancient city. It was very quiet at night, making for a peaceful sleep. And the front desk staff? Their service was exceptional – truly made our stay comfortable and pleasant. The breakfast, served on a street in the ancient city, was just a few hundred meters away."

"The environment here is fantastic! The decor is super luxurious, and the hygiene is top-notch. The service is also very attentive, and they even offer equipment rentals. It's incredibly close to the main scenic spots. This time, I didn't make reservations, so I couldn't visit the Yungang Grottoes and the Hanging Temple, but next time I'm in Datong, I'll definitely stay here again!"

"The hotel is new and surprisingly quiet despite its central location. Parking is convenient, and it's easy to find using navigation. It offers good value for money, with very new facilities. The mattress and pillows, in particular, are brand-name and incredibly comfortable, allowing for a truly refreshing sleep. There's always room for improvement, and I hope it continues to get even better! See you next time!"

"Datong, the ancient city of Shanxi, welcomed me for three days out of my eight-day journey through the province. From the airport pickup and morning meals to the comfortable accommodation and car rentals, the hotel truly embodied the warmth and sense of belonging captured by the phrase 'Datong under heaven, one harmonious family.' The owner personally picked me up, and she was wonderful—elegant, cheerful, and incredibly welcoming. The room she arranged was clean, tidy, bright, and peaceful, making for a truly comfortable and relaxing stay. The breakfast options were perfect for a Cantonese palate, and they even had coffee available, which was a thoughtful touch."

"Highly recommended. First off, the room is spacious, the facilities are brand new, and the design is really unique. They offer slow charging for electric vehicles, which is super convenient. Their breakfast is a must-try, especially the knife-cut noodles and the lamb offal soup – they're even better than what you'd find outside. Plus, it's incredibly close to Kaige, which is a huge bonus!"

"Stepping into Datong Ancient City in the afternoon, the first pleasant surprise was stumbling upon Renyi Inn. The inn's antique courtyard, adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, and warm red lanterns, instantly brought a sense of calm. The family who runs the inn is incredibly humble and kind, their conversations warm and thoughtful, making you feel right at home. What's even more admirable is their exceptional care for animals; the inn is like a mini-zoo. They treat every little creature with gentleness and patience, which in turn fills the entire courtyard with life and spirit. Upon entering, a majestic grey parrot, both poised and lively, greeted me from the front desk – I'd never seen such a large pet parrot before! Two smaller parrots chirped happily nearby, completely unafraid of strangers, lively and adorable. Outside my room was a small courtyard with two tea tables. After a 'special forces'-style day of temple hopping, when I was tired to the point of tears, sitting there enjoying a cup of tea was incredibly relaxing. In the adjacent fish pond, a dozen or so vibrant koi, each weighing at least two to three pounds, swam gracefully, their bodies stretching elegantly. Next to the pond, a large and a small tortoise slowly ambled, quiet and therapeutic. In a corner cage, a tiny grey squirrel darted around, agile and playful. As dusk fell, watching the lights reflect on the pond and listening to the soft sounds of the small animals, the weariness of travel seemed to melt away in this gentle atmosphere, leaving my heart filled with peace and healing. I thought this wonderful experience was complete, but to my surprise, a new delight awaited me the next morning – two peacocks, 'Wenqing' (blue and white) and 'Xiaofeng' (emerald green), strolled leisurely in the courtyard with their magnificent tails fanned out – yes, they even have names! The eye-spots on their tail feathers shimmered, as if they were wearing the entire starry sky, beautiful like something straight out of an ancient painting. For a moment, I couldn't tell if I was in an inn or a secret wonderland. Renyi Inn is far more than just a place to stay; it's a hidden gem within the ancient city. The harmonious coexistence of people and animals creates a warm and healing atmosphere, adding countless gentle and delightful moments to this journey."

"I spent nearly a week at Datong Milan/Magnolia Hotel (Dai Residence branch) and it was a very pleasant and enjoyable stay Location: - Nestled a quieter part of the ancient city, that provided a peaceful retreat after each day of exploring. - 10 minutes to some of the attractions of the old town - 15-20 minute walk to the popular restaurants and more attractions - 30 minute walk to Huayan Temple and its nearby street markets. I'm always happy to walk but if needed, I could always use DiDi to take me around. Falling asleep without street noise is something I like. There is a bit of building work going nearby, which is happening all over Datong Ancient City, but nothing too major. Nearby is the Ancient City's wall, but walk past that and you can see the locals dance in the morning in the park or walk along the canal/moat in the evening. Room: The room was surprisingly spacious, offering plenty of room to spread out and relax, a welcome change from cramped city accommodations. The staircase is a bit narrow, so those with lots of big luggage might struggle (no lift) Importantly, it was very clean and well equipped. I especially liked the Chinese tea ceremony set! Service: - Despite a noticeable language barrier, everyone went above and beyond with smiles, helpful gestures, and clear efforts to communicate. - Especially the manager, who told me about local food to try, things to do and asked if I needed anything. She noticed that I was bringing back leftovers from the restaurant, and bottled drinks from the shops, and said I could use the fridge. - I can't speak Chinese so when the delivery driver came to drop off my order, the staff will take it from the reception and bring it to me. - Unfortunately, breakfast isn't available here - Drinking water topped up. Humidifier and mosquito repellent were provided when needed. I will not hesitate to book here again on my next visit and I highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking comfort and genuine warmth in Datong!"

"The room had excellent natural light and ventilation, was meticulously cleaned, and provided all necessary toiletries. The soundproofing was good, ensuring a undisturbed rest. The facilities were new and in good working order. The surrounding area offered convenient dining and shopping options. Overall, the stay exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it."

"This newly built hotel is amazing with elegant antique decoration furnitures & equipped with smart facilities. The location is very convenient, within walking distance to the lively ancient city. Beautifully prepared breakfast was served every morning. The boss & family are super friendly, nice & provided impeccable service. Giving us thoughtful excursion ideas & recommendations which saved us a lot of time & efforts. We highly recommend this hotel without a doubt & would definitely return again in the future."

"Overall, the hotel was very good. The room was modern and comfortable, and the staff provided good service. The only downside was the housekeeping quality. On the first day, the room was very clean, but after that, the cleaning was not done properly. It felt like they only removed the trash, and the floor was wiped very superficially — I couldn’t even walk barefoot on it. Some days they provided only one towel, and some days there were no slippers at all. The housekeeping and room supply quality really affected the overall experience, and it matches other reviews mentioning inconsistent cleanliness. 整体来说，酒店各方面都很好，房间现代、设施齐全，工作人员的服务态度也很不错。 唯一的缺点是客房清洁。 第一天入住时房间非常干净，但之后的几天，打扫明显不到位，像是只倒了垃圾，地面也只是随便拖一下，完全不能光脚走路。 有些天只给一条毛巾，有些天甚至没有提供拖鞋。 这样的客房清洁和补给品质，确实影响了住宿体验，也与其他评论中提到的“清洁质量不太好”相符。"
