Everything about it was amazing. First of all, location is absolutly perfect, right in the center of the old town, right next to the crossing of the two main steets. And despite that, we were well isolated from the noise in the evening.
The room was very cosy, located at the back of a traditional courtyard. It was spotless and looked great. We even received a lovely little carpackage with local specialities.
And last but not least, the personnel was extremely kind and accomodating. Alice gave us all the tips and information on how best to visit Pingyao and helped us with reservations and ticket purchasing, etc…

Our stay was a truly exceptional experience. You are welcomed in a serene and relaxing environment.
The rooms were beautiful, clean and comfortable.
Located in the heart of the historic centre.
The staff went above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay, with special mention to Crystal, who was particularly outstanding. Her proactive communication before and during our visit made a significant difference. She assisted us in arranging transportation, booking massages, securing tickets for attractions, and even organizing a special birthday surprise for our family.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a blend of relaxation and exceptional hospitality.

Although the room we were given was in a different structure than the one in the pictures, the room was quite similar to the one illustrated.

Good location for the North Gate of the pedestrian city. Nice courtyard and room. Helpful mail and brief explanation about where to buy tickets. Pingyao is worth visiting and can be done with one evening/night and then a busy morning or a full day. WE LOVED THE PLACE 😁

Beautiful ancient city, and you still can feel the daily normal leaving of its inhabitants. Liked the most to have 99.9999% chinese tourist at this time of the year, Mid March. Only 4 westerners encountered. Chinese History at its best. Lots of historical places to visit and learn from ancient China. Unmissable for local and foreigner travellers.

Incredibly beautiful town, totally made up of traditional Chinese architecture (at least on the main streets). You can buy a ticket that allows entry into many of the sites, including the Draft Bank, Temple of the City God, Confucius Temple and so many more, and then spend a day wandering around exploring them as you come across them. (Note that some of the smaller ones have almost no English signs, so it can be difficult to know what they are!). We bought the ticket from a window nearby (1 minute east) of the draft bank, but there may be other places. It's also interesting to go up the City Walls and see the town from above.

Fantastic historic walled town where you can easily escape the tourist area. Very very unique however Pollution was a big problem during our stay as it is in the midde of a huge area full of factories. We spent the 2 days with our masks on.

We visited in November so starting to get chilly at night.
We visited in November so starting to get chilly at night. The numerous museums are interesting and give a good idea of times past. Great food in town but one or two restaurant and shop owners give more hustle than we'd like. Not too many tourists at the time we visited and we pretty much had the whole wall to ourselves. The old town is a comfortable size to walk around over 2 days. The 3 day "tourist pass" is well worth the price we paid.

Don't forget to visit MianShan which is 1 hour by car - you can easily spend 2 days there!
For dinner: a little bit away from the busy street you will find cheaper option. Or just try some small bites here and there.

We were there for 2 nights, 2 days.
We were there for 2 nights, 2 days. We arrived Friday at about 6pm and enjoyed walking around the old city, had a "fish in tank nibbling off dead skin off our feet" experience! Saturday we took a taxi to Wang's Family Compound, 50 km away. This is well worth doing - we took 3 hours to viist the compound which reminded us of a cross betwen the Great Wall and the Forbidden City.... On the way back we stopped at Shuanglin Temple - we only had 30 minutes there before it closed but it was more than enough - and I'd say this is very missable. Saturday evening we went to the excellent 20 minute 8pm laser show where they project historic scenes of Ping Yao onto the outside southern City Wall and the Yingxun Gate. Worth watching. Sunday we walked round some of the main historic sights including the Ancient Government Building, Ri Sheng Chang & the Residence of Ma's Family - all recommended.

Many many thanks to Alice and her team for being so welcoming and for helping me get the tickets to visit Pingyao’s main historical monuments. The place is clean, very quiet and ideally located. A moment out of time in an old house of the imperial era. +++ for the great breakfast!
The hotel looks amazing and it's in the centre of the ancient city! Staff was friendly and great, they spoke excellent English (best we heard during our entire trip). Rooms were comfortable and on overall amazing value for money.
The hotel on a very good location and in original style with very friendly personel. Perfect communication and very good and even free transfer from and to the station!
