Pingyao Cheng‘s Courtyard

The room was exactly as pictured. The actual location is near the North Gate, making it convenient and elegant. The room was tidy and clean, showing that the hosts really take good care of it. The bedding was comfortable and relaxing, and the pillows were perfect, with both soft and firm options available. The provided snacks and light meals were delicious and tasty. We were rushing to see the sights and didn't have time to eat, so the owner offered us homemade pasta, which was very authentic and delicious – a memorable experience! The dates from the courtyard were very sweet, and they even packed some for us to take away ^ - ^. I would definitely stay here again if I come back.

The modern interpretation of the courtyard concept is very innovative. The overall environment is clean and tidy, and it's quite close to the North Gate, making it convenient to hail a taxi anytime.

The private car pick-up service was incredibly convenient. Upon check-in, they thoughtfully explained the best walking routes for Pingyao Ancient City and even provided dining vouchers. We tried three recommended restaurants, all of which were delicious, especially the local spot on the first day. The hotel facilities are excellent, and the Dyson hairdryer was a particular highlight – so good! The breakfast offered both Chinese and Western options, and the coffee was outstanding. We also met an elderly Australian couple staying there; they mentioned the high ratings on ***********, and I completely agree that it's well-deserved. There are even jujube trees in the courtyard, and you can pick and eat the fruit directly!

The design is fantastic, the jujube tree's vitality beautifully complements the Tiffany blue background. Both the service and hygiene are excellent. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

This place is absolutely incredible! No more saying Shanxi is a hotel desert. This Ming and Qing dynasty old mansion perfectly blends modern chic elements. Experiencing an open-air private hot spring with rose petals, a candlelight dinner, and then a special Fenjiu cocktail crafted by the owner, all within this famous Jin merchant's home, complete with smart home technology throughout—it instantly gives you the illusion of time travel. The sense of luxury is through the roof at this moment; indeed, the 'coal boss' aesthetic is flawless! Two hundred years ago, this would have been the wealthiest Jin merchant's abode. The service level far exceeded my expectations for a B&B. The overall stay experience is on par with international chain hotels, making it a destination well worth a special visit for a staycation. I heard they also offer their own customized niche cultural experience routes. I definitely need to come back and try that next time!

This guesthouse is located just a hundred meters inside Pingyao's North Gate. While it's a little removed from the county government and other core ancient city attractions, it escapes the hustle and bustle of the streets, offering a quiet and peaceful retreat. The architectural design is very thoughtful. The soft Tiffany blue palette blends seamlessly with the traditional brick courtyard. The three jujube trees in the courtyard add a unique touch of the ancient city's rustic charm, creating a perfect blend of old and new with a wonderful atmosphere. The service from the staff was exceptionally warm. Transfers were well-arranged, and the staff were very welcoming. The young owner was innocent and playful, even offering my younger brother some biscuits. The family suite we stayed in was incredibly comfortable and well-equipped. The butler provided meticulous care, ensuring both the elderly and children had a pleasant stay. Unfortunately, our trip was rushed, and we only stayed for one night, leaving with a feeling of wanting more.

The B&B is near the North Gate of the Ancient City. Parking was very inconvenient during the summer holiday, but the owner's brother helped us find a parking spot in advance and waited for us to arrive, then guided us to it. We could order drinks daily, and I particularly liked their coconut latte. Although the courtyard isn't big, it's very cozy, clean, and beautiful.

Perfect for couples or families, it's very quiet and in a great location near the North Gate. It's lovely to have a drink and chat in the courtyard in the evenings. Kids can also enjoy a bath and play in the water. We'll definitely be back next time!

After comparing several options on Trip.com, I chose Chengfu Jin Yuan. The design is great, and we got a free upgrade to a family room. The hygiene was impeccable, and the service was super warm and friendly. They even helped us with our travel itinerary. The breakfast was exquisite and delicious. Five-star rating, highly recommended!
