Hotels near Shanhua Ancient Monastery, Datong

One of the best stays I've staid in so far! The architecture is amazing, location perfect in the city center yet easy to reach for taxis, it's spotless clean, cozy warm and the owner is a really nice guy who enjoys inviting his guests for a tea and conversation. If you go to Datong, stay in this place and you'll be happy!

Great location, easy to find, the staff are very friendly and helpful. Comfortable and modern room, good breakfast. Great value for money, warmly recommended!

The Yunzhong Chaoran Pavilion was newly renovated just prior to our stay in January 2026. The whole building is spotless, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. The staff make an effort to understand you, and are adept at using translation apps when conversation breaks down. They have a “Xiao Du” feature , similar to the American “Alexa”, where you can ask it to turn lights off and on, as well as to open and close the curtains . The receptionist patiently helped me to learn how to use it - and frankly , it was great practice for my pronunciation of Mandarin. Finding the hotel is as challenging as any other located where vehicles are not permitted to enter. We were fortunate to have a taxi driver who helped us figure out where the hotel was, and then walked us there. Datong is not yet well known as a tourist destination. However, it is a reasonably close drive to the Hanging Temple and the Grottoes, as well as the Wooden Pagoda. There is plenty to see within walking distance. The city space around the hotel is under construction- I expect it will become a lot more popular in the next two years.

Owner lady is very friendly and helpful. Location is convenient place in old city. I want to come to Datong to stay this house.

Good location to ancient city , the room is clean and the front desk and staff are friendly and helpful too. Strongly recommended!

Awesome homestay in Datong. Great for families too. Highly recommended.

Great location, just right around the corner of the old city. The room is clean. Both girls at the reception are very nice and helpful especially when you are not speaking the language. They helped organise the taxi for me to go visit places. Amazing place to stay with these amazing people. I sure will return some day.

The staff upgraded us to a suite room upon check-in. Also provided daily fruit platter and 梨汤. Supper of 刀削面，egg and warm milk was great! Special commendation to 郭六女 for good service. Parking convenient.

The hotel is clean and hygienic, and offers free luggage storage. The rooms are spacious, with mirrors and large wardrobes (including blankets), and a long sofa large enough for one person to sleep on. It's very close to Datong Ancient City; you can see the Drum Tower and the Nine-Dragon Wall within walking distance.

Extremely happy with my stay here! Room is very spacious and clean, and I was within walking distance to most of the attractions and restaurants. The staff here are very friendly and they always went out of their way to make my experience in Datong memorable! I'm especially grateful because the manager showed me how to order food from local restaurants using my phone and get it delivered straight to my room! 10/10!!
