Hotels With Spa in Shanxi, China

The hotel lobby is grand, perhaps reflecting the local aesthetic with its minority architectural style – tall and impressive. The hotel isn't in the ancient city, so we had to take a taxi there every day, which took about 10-15 minutes. The service was excellent; they delivered a fruit plate daily, which was a very thoughtful touch. Although the hotel has been around for many years, the decor doesn't feel dated. The value for money here is outstanding. Aside from its distance from the ancient city, it completely exceeded expectations for the price. I would definitely choose Yungang Jianguo again when I next visit Datong.

🌟 Amenities: There's a beautiful fountain ⛲️ at the entrance. I'd wanted to stay here since my first night in Taiyuan, and I finally made it! 🌟 Even though the Kempinski Hotel Taiyuan is a bit older, an old Ferrari is still a Ferrari, right? 🌟 The service was excellent. We sent our luggage over before we even arrived, with the driver. When we called the front desk, they immediately helped us arrange everything. Upon arrival, we just gave our name and our bags were brought right over. It was very thoughtful and heartwarming. 🌟 The breakfast was delicious, and they had my favorite cucumber juice. Breakfast ends at 10:30 AM.

Our group of four went to the Shanxi First Hot Spring Hotel, thinking it would be conveniently located within the Wang Family Courtyard. We ended up loving it! The hotel environment was superb! 👍🏻 Getting up early to climb the city wall and see the swirling mist was like stepping into a fairyland. The air was fresh, the hot spring water smooth, and the night view even more beautiful! Dinner was delicious, and breakfast was plentiful! Everyone is planning to come back! The manager, Xiao Wang, and my husband hit it off immediately, and he even gave us souvenir coins!

Let me elaborate. **Courtyard Design:** Very beautiful, many scenic spots within the ancient city are decorated in a similar style. **Room Amenities:** Given the prime location, the room isn't large, perhaps around 15 square meters. It has all the essentials and is very clean. The mattress was comfortable. Of course, it can't compare to high-end or luxury hotels. Its main advantage is its excellent location; it's very convenient for exploring, and you can easily pop back for a rest when you get tired. **Service:** The staff were very service-oriented. When we arrived, there weren't many guests, and the service was very attentive. **Breakfast:** It's not a buffet; it's a fixed-menu breakfast, like a 'nine-grid' style. It looks very appealing, and the taste is decent enough to fill you up. Overall, it's a good stay. Naturally, for this price point within the ancient city, you shouldn't compare it to hotels of the same price outside. It's incomparable, primarily due to its superb geographical advantage.

Although the hotel is old, it's clean and tidy, and even the toilet is electric. However, the bathroom ventilation is really poor, so those prone to an upset stomach should be careful. The online rumor that guests don't have to wait for a table at the restaurant is false; you still need to go downstairs at 4 PM to get a number and wait until 5:30 PM for dinner service to start. The breakfast is indeed rich and delicious, and the coffee is freshly made by a dedicated barista. The bathing area, though small, is very clean. As soon as someone finishes showering, a staff member immediately comes to clean it. The only minor drawback is that the water in the hot tub was a bit too cool. The turndown service giving only one 'Crispy Shark' snack for two people was confusing. Overall, it's good. The location is superb, and you can walk to all the major attractions.

The hotel was well located. The room exactly like it was described online. We reserved two rooms without windows for one day it was cost efficient! Unfortunately I could not reserve directly 4 breakfast online only two (one per room), we have to pay directly at breakfast for the two others one. We stop at Datong to visited one of UNESCO site and see the all Datong city. We thought more foreigners will visit this beautiful small city. No one speaks English (and that’s ok) but for a 4 stars hotel the front desk lady looks a bit lost with the check in procedure for foreigners (and I work in a 5 stars hotel in beijing so I know the procedure as a French working in China). Also, the isolation is bad, the front desk already inform us upon check in but we did not thought we will heard even the other room bathrooms flush. Thank you for this night your hotel is beautiful

I brought my mother to Taiyuan for a trip this time. I wanted to be close to the attractions, so I chose to stay at Hubin International Hotel. The check-in experience was excellent: the front desk upgraded our room, and we had a beautiful view of Yingze Park from our window. The concierge actively helped us with our luggage, and the floor manager prepared a warm turndown service for us. At breakfast, a young lady in the restaurant introduced my mother to Taiyuan's famous local dishes. Although it's early winter, this trip to Taiyuan was very heartwarming.

This review is completely unsolicited, and as a Chinese person, I wouldn't mislead another. First off, the location is incredibly convenient. You can spot the hotel right from the traffic light at the North Gate of the Ancient City Wall, making it perfect for visiting attractions like the Ancient City Wall, Huayan Temple, Shanhua Temple, and Daiwang Mansion. Secondly, the hotel itself is very welcoming. There's a children's play area and a coffee shop on the first floor. The rooms are genuinely clean and quiet. The air conditioning vents are built-in, so it's not blowing directly on you, which is very comfortable. Each tissue even has a different blessing on it, and the facilities are all very well-equipped. Also, the sliced noodles at the restaurant are delicious! They're much more to my taste than those at Dongfang Sliced Noodles, for example. We checked in on the evening of the 29th, which was during their soft opening, so there weren't many guests. However, they still diligently prepared breakfast according to our preferences after asking what we wanted. Hats off to them! Finally, the service is truly exceptional! I called in the morning of check-in to reserve a parking spot, and in the evening, they asked about our breakfast preferences for the next day. There was bottled water available in the hallway, and they patiently answered every single question. The experience was truly, truly excellent. To sum it up, I wholeheartedly recommend it! Full marks!

The hotel was famous and adjacent to a tourist attraction. The service was nice, except for a young male driver (for the commuting car that connected the hotel's buildings and the tourist attraction's gate), who seemed a bit reluctant or tired at work and lacked communication skills or etiquette (since the hotel claimed itself to be a five star hotel, it is not uncommon for guests to have higher expectations than elsewhere). It is said that the hotel was built in the 1950s. Thus, it was not surprising that many facilities seemed relatively old, especially when compared with newer hotels. Overall, the hotel could be a good choice.

The room is quite satisfactory. The location is good. The service staff is very friendly. The front office manager is very enthusiastic. The guest relations director Jin Xiaoyu. Shi Haixing, the concierge, Wang Hongyao, the environment is very good, I will come again next time
