Popular Pingyao 4-star Hotels

Great place in Pingyao. It is reasonably priced, a bit out of the very center (meaning also out of tourists crowds that can be quite noisy in the evenings and mornings), but still close, has same old-style design as the more popular and well-established places that cater to foreigners, but priced twice as much. Pick-up and drop off service is provided - just contact the hotel in advance via phone using the reception of tour previous hotel - no one speaks English - it will solve your communication issue if you do not speak Chinese. At the place itself everyone is very eager to help - use your phone app to translate. Onwer helped me to buy tickets to Pingyao attractions and Terracota Army as I was heading to Xian next (available only through WeChat Pay that is in turn is not availablefor foreign tourists as of April 2023). If you go to Shuanglin temple, be sure to ask to buy tickets through WeChat for you as well. I was able to buy physical one by pure compassion of local guard who asked the staff to open ticket office just for me (Probably was the only foreigner in Pingyao at a time). Please also note that as of April 2023, the reconstruction works in the historical city parts are continuing, so, large chunks of the city within the walls are not looking as great as it could have been. The very center of the city is mostly untouched though and you can still come and explore. If going in spring, be prepared for the temperature swings. I got a temperature drop from 28C to 3C within 2 days by the moment I got to Pingyao. It was even snowing at night.

Beautiful accommodation and super friendly staff, helped us a lot since we cannot speak chinese, like buying tickets for attractions, suggesting nice local restaurants and even accompanied us outside the city walls since it was a hot day. We are super happy to have chosen this place and we really recommend it! 😊

This is a gorgeous hotel that is centrally-located inside the ancient city with great service. It’s like living in a museum! The hotel is housed in a thoughtfully renovated ancient college with a beautiful courtyard for chatting, eating, and chilling. The rooms are large, clean, and quiet. I really enjoyed the traditional mat style bed. The hotel is a short walk away from the bustling Main Street. It was very convenient to walk to most attractions inside the walled City. The hotel owner also arranged free transport to take me to the high speed rail station. The service was wonderful. No complaints! If you’re staying here, I recommend checking out not just the ancient walled city but also the ancient temples in the area. I would stay here again without hesitation.

If you want to explore the ancient town of Pingyao, then this hotel is fantastic. It's 15mins away from the high speed railway. They pick up and drop out off outside the city. With the covid regulations in place, the hotel supported me through the process and helped me gain entry into the city. I was then collected and driven to the hotel. Check-in was smooth and the lady helped me to book tickets for the Pingyao theatre show at the same time. I received a free upgrade from a double room to a suite. All in all, a fantastic holiday, and a great experience.

Very nice. The hotel staff provided great service. We called the front desk in advance to make an appointment at Pingyao Ancient City Station. The pick-up and drop-off service was very considerate. They took the initiative to help with the luggage. When we arrived at the hotel, we were given a map of Pingyao Ancient City. The whole stay was very comfortable~

This is a homestay transformed from the old house of Hou Wangbin, which is more than 300 years old. Every brick and tile was built at that time. On this basis, it has been carefully designed and renovated. It is a magical thing to live in this 300-year-old house in Pingyao Ancient City and experience the flow of time! The housekeeper service of the homestay is very professional and in place. Not only did they help pick up and drop off the luggage, but they also recommended tour routes and locations according to our time in Pingyao. You must go to the restaurant for dinner. It is said that the authentic Pingyao local chef has been here for more than 20 years. Every dish is exquisite and delicious, and the ingredients are very good!

A very pleasant and pleasant trip. I took the high-speed train from Beijing to Pingyao in the morning. Before I left the station, I received a call from the shopkeeper, who arranged a driver to pick me up at the gate of the ancient city. The courtyard is a very well-preserved three-entry Jin residence, which is not much worse than those mansions in Wang's Courtyard. The house is full of details, making people feel very comfortable and warm. After checking in, the shopkeeper directly took out the map of key tourist attractions in the ancient city and the attractions outside the ancient city that she had helped to draw. We talked about our interests and finally decided to go to Shuanglin Temple and Wang's Courtyard the next day. The shopkeeper also helped to arrange a very reliable chartered car driver. Overall, I didn't have to worry about it. The shopkeeper was reliable when there was something! The courtyard is only a few minutes' walk from the main road. The most enjoyable thing is to drink the shopkeeper's health tea and chat for a while after shopping in the evening~ I have to say that the shopkeeper is a very energetic person, and a few words make people feel refreshed~ In short, it is a perfect experience, worth bringing family and best friends together~

This is a beautiful hotel in the juice of the old town of Pingyao, located not far from one of the gates of the old town and about 15 minutes walk from the center and the main streets. The room had a lot of charm, with the traditional bed which, to my surprise, was comfortable even with the rigidity. I could not enjoy the patio because of the mosquitoes but it is really very charming! The young woman at the reception and the Ayi (the aunt who takes care of breakfast and cleaning) are people with a heart of gold who will do everything to enhance your stay. You have the choice of Western or Chinese breakfast, personally I enjoyed the Chinese breakfast which is typical of the region. I recommend this hotel 100%!

Very good - it is better to have breakfast. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The first time I came to Shanxi, the first contact was the hotel staff, too kind, the service was super good. We have not set off yet, the hotel has already begun to arrange our time, tell us which parking lot to park, and the battery car pick-up brother sent us to the hotel. The hotel is in the center of the scenic spot, and it is very convenient to go to any scenic spot. We arrived late and have not eaten yet. The hotel recommended several better restaurants in the scenic spot. We chose Hongwuji. There are coupons at the hotel, which is 30 yuan cheaper. The next day is breakfast included. We took the children to eat very full. It is worth coming. This trip is very fortunate to choose such a good hotel. Next time, it is definitely the first choice 👍👍.
