Exploring Ancient Charm, Dreaming Back to Qi Gongguan – A Homestay Experience in the High-Ranking Official's Residence within Pingyao Ancient City
Nestled in the heart of Pingyao Ancient City, Qi Gongguan stands as a historic residence gently embraced by time. Today, it welcomes every traveler eager to traverse through the ages and seek a spiritual home, not merely as a homestay but as a journey through time and space, allowing you to personally experience the extraordinary elegance and refined lifestyle of a former high-ranking official's residence.
Qi Gongguan, a mansion bearing centuries of elegance, was once the proud symbol of the Qi Zhuxuan family, who served as the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. Its unique architectural style, featuring a layout of five rooms and three courtyards complemented by exquisite towers and chambers, reveals the Qi family's profound cultural heritage and prominent status. As you stroll amidst the grey bricks and tiles, every brick and tile seems to narrate past glories and stories.
Now, Qi Gongguan has been meticulously transformed into a high-quality homestay that blends classical and modern elements. Here, you can not only immerse yourself in the authentic ambiance of an ancient mansion but also enjoy the convenience and comfort of modern living. Inside the guest rooms, classical decorations seamlessly integrate with modern facilities, enabling you to appreciate the charm of history while enjoying the warmth and coziness of a home.
Choosing Qi Gongguan Homestay means opting for a distinctive travel experience. You can leisurely wander through the alleys of the ancient city, exploring corners forgotten by time, or sit quietly in the courtyard of the homestay, savoring a pot of good tea and enjoying a rare tranquility and leisure. Don't forget that Qi Gongguan is just a stone's throw away from famous attractions such as the Pingyao Ancient City Wall, Pingyao Ancient County Government Office, and Rishengchang Bank, allowing you to easily appreciate the style and charm of the ancient city.
Come to Qi Gongguan, and let's together roam in the river of history, feeling the unique charm and ambiance belonging to Pingyao Ancient City. Here, you will gain an unforgettable travel memory and allow your soul to truly relax and rejuvenate.

Lovely little boutique hotel. Really well located near to all the sights of Pingyao. The owner went out of her way to help us, recommending us two good places to eat and arranging transport. Nice breakfast as well.

The location was great; along a quiet alley just minutes away from the MingQing street. Hotel is a residential place and has beautiful courtyards. The breakfast was delicious, we even requested for extra helpings! Hotel offers pickup and dropoff at Pingyao Gucheng Station and helped arranged for a knowledgeable private guide for our day.

Historic building with oodles of character, makes you travel centuries back in time. Some amenities would benefit from a little update, but staff is welcoming and service is excellent.
