Hotels With Spa in Shanxi, China

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!

We spent out last night of our trip at Kempinski Taiyuan, and it did not disappoint. The receptionist upgraded up to a room on a high floor with a view of the city. They also gave us fresh fruits and free minibar. They had everything you would expect of a five star hotel, and the location is in a bustling part of the city. Would definitely come back.

My mother and I traveled together. First, let's talk about the location. It's not far from Yongtai Gate, a 1.2km taxi ride (minimum fare), or a 20-minute walk. Getting to other gates usually costs around 10-12 yuan. We booked a double room with breakfast for 198 yuan. This room was in Building B, which seems to be the older building. It's on a lower floor, so you can only see a tiny bit of Datong Ancient City. To get a good view of the ancient city, you need to book a higher floor in Building A. Overall, the hotel is very good, and the service is exceptionally thorough and generous. On the first day, we stayed in Building B and were a bit disappointed not to see the ancient city. However, the next day, the door lock had an issue, and the front desk moved us to a higher floor in Building A – a blessing in disguise! The complimentary evening bath facilities were also great, with free sauna access and very attentive service. The breakfast was quite rich, and the staff were enthusiastic, even helping to make freshly ground coffee. On the day we checked out, the staff saw we had an elderly person with us and provided takeaway boxes for them to pack some pastries for the road, which was incredibly thoughtful. Plus, all rooms have direct drinking water, and they provide plenty of free bottled water. There's also complimentary bottled water and ginger tea available in the lobby. We would definitely choose this hotel again for our next visit.

The front desk staff were very friendly and patient, answering all my questions. They even upgraded my room. The mattress was comfortable, and the two pillows, one firm and one soft, were also quite comfortable. The hotel's location is good, with many restaurants nearby and plenty of parking. The soundproofing in the room and hallway was decent. The only downside is the soundproofing of the windows. Near the Red Star Macalline shopping mall, taxis often wait for fares at night, honking their horns loudly when they need to enter or exit. The sound rises between the two buildings, and even with all the windows closed, the sound is as loud as if the windows were open, making life unbearable for residents on higher floors. I thought the higher floors, being away from the street, would be quiet, but the constant barrage of taxi honking, slamming car doors, loud noises, and rain is unbearable. I have to get up early to travel today... I barely slept a wink last night.

Hygiene: Excellent. All towels, bath towels, and bathrobes come in sealed bags, which made me feel very secure using them. Facilities: Excellent. Although it's an older hotel, the showerheads show their age but are very well-maintained and work perfectly. Environment: The location is great. The room card gives access to a small gate leading to Yingze Lake Park. It's a nice two to three-kilometer loop for a leisurely stroll. Service: Excellent. They offered complimentary welcome fruits, and you just scan a QR code to request more amenities. There's also a delivery robot that brings food right to your door, all very convenient. Suggestion: I hope they can switch from instant Nestlé coffee to pour-over coffee bags. Instant coffee feels too low-end and doesn't match the hotel's overall quality.

Excellent! First, let's talk about the location. It's centrally located in Datong, very close to attractions like Huayan Temple, Shanhua Temple, and the Nine-Dragon Wall, all within walking distance. Dining is also very convenient, with several restaurants recommended on Xiaohongshu nearby. Next, the service. As expected of an established hotel, the service is incredibly professional and enthusiastic. The doorman will help you carry your luggage to your room. I even saw them squatting down to meticulously wipe the entrance clean – truly dedicated, especially in this cold weather! Finally, I must mention the hotel's dining. The dishes come in small portions, and the service is very fast. All the recommended dishes are delicious, and the ambiance is first-class. My only regret is having such a small appetite! The breakfast buffet is also exquisite! And the complimentary bathhouse tickets were a great bonus. There are two pools with comfortable water temperatures and very clean water. The scrub masseur was also very professional. I stayed at the Garden Hotel for all 4 days of my trip to Datong, experiencing both buildings A and B, and both were great. Although building B doesn't include meals, it felt a bit newer than building A. This is the first time I've written such a detailed review, but it's genuinely excellent, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Datong!

Yang Cunlian, the waiter in Room 1216 of Jinhe Hotel, cleaned the room carefully, treated people kindly, and provided warm and thoughtful service, which was highly praised. Hao Piaoliang, the front desk waiter, took the initiative to help the elderly contact the travel vehicle, which made the elderly feel convenient for travel and was very touched. The restaurant was clean and tidy, and the service was warm. The food was delicious.

The environment is very good, a leisure resort, the environment is very good, the sanitary conditions are very good, especially the service is very good, I have stayed in many hotels, the service here is the best, I will choose here again in the future

The hotel is in a great location. There are lots of local restaurants downstairs, and there's also the Wanda Mall. I chose this hotel because I stayed there when it first opened. The front desk staff was very friendly, helpful, and attentive. I even got an upgrade. However, the room was much less clean this time. There was hair all over the bathroom bar, and the large shower head didn't work. This is something a five-star hotel shouldn't have. I hope you'll pay attention to this.

I came to see the concert and I liked the fact that the Intercontinental Hotel could pick me up. The service and environment were very good. There were some minor incidents in the middle, but they were solved quickly. The only question was that I vomited for two consecutive days after breakfast. I want to ask if the soft-boiled fried eggs in the hotel breakfast were sterile eggs?
