SabrinaxihuanziyouzizaidelvxingThe best decision we made for our family trip to Pingyao was booking this guesthouse. The owner was incredibly welcoming; they contacted us the day before our arrival to provide parking information and patiently answered all our questions. They even helped us with our luggage both at check-in and check-out, which was really thoughtful. We also got a discount on tickets for 'See Pingyao' by booking through them, and thanks to the owner, we even got a better discount at Hongwuji restaurant than what was offered on Dianping. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the ancient city, making it super convenient for dining and sightseeing. What truly impressed us were the well-equipped rooms. Watching a movie together on the projector TV in the evening was such a cozy experience. The bedding was so comfortable; it was the best night's sleep we had during our entire Shanxi trip. Unfortunately, our time was too short. Pingyao really deserves a two-night stay, and we'll definitely book here again next time!

My best impression is the hotel owners, They are very kind and when I asked for help, they would try their best. The location is great as well. You can walk to Pingyao railway station and Long distance bus station, to go to ZhanBi fortress and Qian's family courtyard, easily. It is also nearby the local market where you can do shopping and eating at a reasonable price. It is nearby the West gate. Oh.... It has an automatic toilet too, I love it 😍 FYI the other name is Moonlight guesthouse.

Guest UserThe hotel's location is absolutely central, right next to the City Tower on Nandajie. You turn off the bustling main street into a quiet alley, and it's just 20 meters to the hotel – truly an oasis of calm amidst the lively area. My biggest fear when staying in traditional courtyards within the ancient city is noise, but this place was surprisingly peaceful. The courtyard was completely quiet in the mornings, and as late sleepers, we weren't disturbed at all. The other guests were also very considerate, speaking in hushed tones. The owner and the young lady at the front desk were incredibly enthusiastic. They smoothly arranged our pick-up and drop-off at the train station, recommended restaurants (the hot pot place next door has a mini version that's delicious and not greasy), helped us book a tour guide, and arranged transportation. I'm writing such a long review because I was genuinely touched by their warmth. When we went to the old Pingyao train station in the morning, which is very close, they personally drove us there. Sitting on the back of their electric scooter felt so freeing – it had been ages since I'd ridden on the back of one! It was a blast!

CongcongdelvxingxiangComing to Pingyao, the best surprise was choosing this guesthouse.
First of all, the property belongs to the owner's family. It has a history, and it has been beautifully renovated and remodeled while maintaining local characteristics. The owners themselves live in the main house in the backyard, which gives it a lively, welcoming atmosphere.
The landlady was exceptionally warm and hospitable. Her introductions and tips for the local attractions were very practical, which truly helped us avoid tourist traps and save time—I am very grateful for that. They even picked us up at the high-speed railway station and prepared afternoon tea. Staying here was extremely comfortable and cozy.
The room was clean, fully equipped, the courtyard was neat and pleasant, and the location was also great—just a few steps away from the ancient city's main commercial street. Yet, the courtyard itself was quiet and peaceful without any noise. Highly recommended for motorcycle travelers; the alley is accessible for motorcycles, and right at the front door, there is an ancient sedan chair parking spot where you can park your bike, complete with surveillance cameras for peace of mind.
Drinking tea in this courtyard is simply wonderful, full of local charm. The landlady recently married off her daughter, so the decorations were still festive—I am sharing some photos for everyone's reference. I look forward to coming back next time.

YingziAn absolute 10/10 experience! A well-deserved 5-star review for Pingyao Tingbo Hotel, highly recommended! 👍 As soon as I arrived, I was drawn to the grey brick and red pillar entrance, which has such a unique ancient city vibe. Walking into the lobby was an instant eye-opener—the Neo-Chinese interior design is grand and upscale. The landscape feature wall in the lobby, paired with the suspended blue flying birds installation overhead, creates a dynamic and sophisticated atmosphere. The furniture and partitions in the lounge area feel very premium, complemented by exquisite ornaments and potted plants that show great taste. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming, and check-in was swift. The hotel environment is very quiet, yet it's super convenient for walking around the ancient city and exploring local food. They even offer a station pickup and drop-off service, plus a parting gift upon leaving. It is truly rare to find a hotel in the Pingyao Ancient City that blends traditional charm with brand-new, comfortable hardware. Excellent value for money! I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit. Highly recommended to everyone!

Guest UserWe chose Red Lantern Inn after being inspired by the film 'Raise the Red Lantern', and it completely exceeded our expectations. The location is stunning, and the rooms are beautiful, clean, and modern. The host was warm, attentive, and went out of their way to help in everything, from advising us good restaurants to giving us a ride to the train station, we loved every moment of our stay!

Guest UserIt was just an absolutely amazing experience from the very beginning and until the very end of our stay, not even just in the hotel, but in the city of Pingyao itself in general. Me and my friend are traveling very light and without guides, and in Pingyao we had only one day: from evening to evening of the next day. Huge huge thanks to everyone who made this day unforgettable and ultimately comfortable for tired us: Alice, Helen, Fenny, Hana, and all others who was there for us.
The hotel service is simply excellent: as soon as they learned about our late arrival, they immediately offered to meet us at the railway station, which was absolutely the sweetest thing. They brought us to the city gate, met us there, and walked us to the hotel. There they gave us a map, on which they explained in great detail where everything is, what is worth paying attention to, how it is better to build the route, and what opening hours different sights have. They also helped us organize a private transfer to Shaolin Temple the next morning. It was just perfect: we got there in 15 minutes instead of one and a half hours by foot, and after our walk in the temple they met us and brought us back. Also on the evening of arrival they helped us immediately buy the ticket for visiting all attractions of the city, valid for three days. And also they advised us where to eat, and gave us a hotel discount in both places. We did not regret it even once, the food was amazingly delicious in both places!
The hotel itself is just wonderful: it really looks exactly like in the photos. You want to photograph every corner and record how the sparrows are chirping on the roof, and how two wonderful cats are meowing. The room also matches and even exceeds expectations. A huge kang bed, very comfortable. Excellent shower with everything needed. Breakfast is included in the stay: the traditional Chinese one was very tasty! Unfortunately, we did not manage to eat the egg, it was freshly boiled and still hot, but we were hurrying to Shaolin Temple by opening time. Also the hotel has a laundry service, and special thanks for that too! Washing and drying were very fast, and we got our nicely smelling clothes back already after four hours, which was critical for us, because we were leaving the same day.
We felt like we really were honored guests, and we really appreciated it, even if only for one day.

wz8866Facilities: Well-equipped
Cleanliness: Always cleaned and very tidy
Ambiance: Absolutely stunning for a historical visit. This is a centuries-old inn, with seven courtyards deep. Being here felt like stepping back into the glorious era when Jin merchants thrived.
Service: Excellent. There are two incredibly cute kittens in the courtyard that my son absolutely adored. The owner even provided toys for playing with them. When we weren't out exploring, my son spent his time in the courtyard playing with the cats and had a wonderful time.
