4-Star Hotels in Datong

I spent a long time choosing this guesthouse on Ctrip. What attracted me was its: airport/train station pick-up and drop-off service, special breakfast, proximity to taxis, elevator, laundry room, smart toilet, separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom, water dispenser, fruit and drinks, and foot bath. I stayed two nights and would recommend it to friends; the twin room was incredibly spacious. The owner's mom makes amazing bread! She even packed it up for us when we left. The owner also helped with laundry, drying, and neatly folding our clothes before bringing them to our room. It's very convenient for those driving, as it's close to the parking garage entrance. I ate at Wei Zhuang Datong Restaurant nearby twice, and I thought it was even better than Feng Ling Ge. There were several weddings in the area over the past two days; I could hear the electronic fireworks every day.

The room was great, and the underfloor heating kept it very warm. The courtyard (siheyuan) is absolutely beautiful. The underground parking was also very convenient. The service was excellent. I didn't use my car for two days, so leaving wasn't the smoothest. I had to rush to Yungang Grottoes and left before 7 AM, getting a bit delayed at the entrance. The parking fee was 100 RMB (even though there was a free parking voucher, it didn't link successfully), but the owner paid it for me. This is a very responsible establishment, and both the owner and the housekeeper are wonderful. The location is super convenient, and the breakfast is incredibly delicious. Many thanks!

Terrible! I strongly object to secretly leaving positive reviews using a customer's phone. I will definitely leave a positive review if asked, but doing so secretly is going too far. I stayed two nights and placed two separate orders. The first night, I arrived at the hotel at 11 PM, and the door lock wouldn't lock, and the security zipper was missing. The staff tried to fix it, but couldn't. I had to make do for the night without being able to change rooms. The second night, I called to ask for a room change, and they readily agreed and even gave me a gift (two bags of cold noodles and three drinks). My stay was very pleasant. On the third day, when I checked out, the front desk, perhaps afraid of leaving a bad review, asked me to leave a positive review. I said okay, I was in a rush to catch my flight, I'd leave it later. The front desk then said, ”Could you please pull up your Ctrip order so I can check it?” When I handed the phone back, I saw them tap it and return it to me. I realized they had left a positive review. I was in a hurry to get to the airport and didn't have time to leave one. I find this behavior very offensive. Do they treat their customers like dirt? This is the first time I've encountered such an employee among all the Manxin stores nationwide. Shouldn't we improve the quality of our employees?

The place is very clean, and the environment is really cozy, making for a very comfortable stay. The shower pressure is fantastic, I'm very satisfied, it's such great value! The staff (specifically, a young lady) was very welcoming and even thoughtfully prepared breakfast for us. Five-star recommendation!

The environment here is great. It's located within the ancient city but away from the super crowded areas, so it's really quiet at night. The only downside is that cars aren't allowed in the ancient city, so dragging luggage can be a bit of a walk. The courtyard is perfect for a chat and a cup of tea; it's quite tranquil. The service was very good. You can tell they put a lot of thought into everything; it's all very refined. The afternoon tea was lovely, and both the dried apricots and mandarins were delicious. For breakfast, you can choose between lamb offal soup with rice noodles or刀削面 (daoxiao mian - knife-cut noodles). The facilities are quite comprehensive, with a coffee machine and a disposable bathtub liner. However, there's still room for improvement. The air conditioning in the room works, but it can make the air quite dry. The water heater is electric, and it's a bit tricky to get the hot and cold water balance just right. If two people shower consecutively, the next person has to wait quite a while. Overall, it's still a good place to stay. It's very convenient for exploring the ancient city, and it's not far to take a taxi to the grottoes.

I booked a twin room for the summer. First, the good points: The hotel is very new, and there's a common area on the third floor atrium with a nice environment. The washing machines are good. Breakfast was great, and the breakfast staff and front desk personnel were very friendly. They provided toilet seat covers, which was excellent. It's about a 15-minute taxi ride to the ancient city, which isn't too far. Not far from the hotel, there's a main branch of a noodle shop where local residents have lunch and dinner. Now, for the downsides: Some rooms overlook the parking lot, so you might occasionally hear some car noise, but it's not too disruptive. The sink is right by the entrance, which makes the room feel a bit cramped, and the toilet is quite close to the bed. Overall, the price isn't expensive, and the service is good. There are a few minor drawbacks, but they are acceptable. I recommend Du Ji Sunit Hot Pot, about 2-3 kilometers away, and Long Ju Xiang's takeaway for milk skin yogurt!

It is truly a stroke of luck to stumble upon such a heartwarming hotel during an exhausting journey. I chose the Mercure Hotel at Datong Wanda Plaza simply because it was close to the high-speed railway station for a hassle-free trip, but I never expected to find so much comfort and peace of mind. On the day of my check-in, an unexpected heavy rain hit. Arriving at the front desk covered in mud and fatigue, I was greeted with a cup of welcome tea that felt like a warm embrace. The front desk staff were gentle and welcoming, and the check-in process was smooth and unhurried, completely dissolving the rush of travel. The room was impeccably clean with a minimalist yet cozy setup, and the soft bedding ensured a sound and restful sleep that washed away all my road weariness. The thoughtful amenities—such as the self-service laundry and the gym—are exceptionally friendly for travelers. Breakfast was filled with local warmth: a steaming bowl of sliced noodles (daoxiao mian) and sheep’s offal soup instantly gave me a true taste of Datong's local flavor. It’s not just a place to crash for the night; it feels like a gentle harbor along the journey. An unexpected encounter filled with delight and pleasant surprises. Because of you, the memories are all the sweeter—Mercure Datong Wanda Plaza!

I found this hot spring hotel online, and after seeing the good reviews, I decided to book a stay to try it out. The online reviews were absolutely right – the environment is beautiful, the facilities are excellent, and the rooms are comfortable, spacious, and spotlessly clean. The natural volcanic hot springs and pools have crystal-clear water, offering an incredible experience that instantly brought me immense satisfaction. Furthermore, the front desk service was incredibly welcoming; check-in was smooth and fast, and they patiently and meticulously answered all my questions. With such a comfortable environment and excellent service, I didn't hesitate to extend my stay.

This is my second stay here! It's very close to the ancient city, about a 10-minute taxi ride away, and also about 10 minutes from Datong South Station. The hotel has a high star rating, and the butler service is attentive and warm. The rooms are well-equipped with everything you need. It's truly perfect for families, as it allows for separate resting areas while also providing space to work. A big shoutout to the lamb offal soup with vermicelli at breakfast – it was delicious!

The brand really makes a difference; the quality is truly guaranteed. I've stayed at Huazhu before in Zhejiang, but this was my first time at Lux, and it's definitely a cut above. First off, the decor is incredibly distinctive – the furniture, bedding, oil paintings, and everything else show exceptional taste. The service was also incredibly thoughtful; they patiently explained local delicacies and sightseeing tips. Breakfast was great too, especially the knife-cut noodles, which tasted just as good as any outside noodle shop. We even made coffee soap! It's very convenient for visiting Daiwang Mansion and Huayan Temple. Highly recommended!
