Pingyao Tian Shun Yi Guild Hall

What a wonderful place we had the chance to get for a night, the reception was really great toward us, helped us to get here from the train station, offered us a lot of gifts and helped us with places to visit during our trip.

This is without doubt the ideal place to stay in Pingyao Gucheng. It is located pretty much equidistant from the 4 gate towers - smack in the middle of the ancient town. It is right at the edge of the no-car zone (which is approximately the Southern half of the Gucheng), and this means that the hotel's car can drop you off right at the hotel's gate, and there is no need to roll your luggage down a street or transfer from car to electric cart. The Gucheng's main street is 5 minutes' walk away, easy access to all the restaurants, shops and main attractions. The hotel oozes old world charm, yet is up-to-date with modern amenities like heating in both room and bathroom, comfortable beds, key cards, etc. Hygiene and service were impeccable. The driver picked us up from and dropped us back at the high-speed train station on time, front desk staff checked on our needs all the time, helped with our bags (driver calling ahead before arriving), gave us daily fruit platters and water, etc. We had a fantastic time, and felt more taken care of than anywhere else on this month-long trip in China. Definitely recommend this hotel.

The hostel is within the ancient city so it’s very convenient to walk around to eateries and attractions nearby. The services of the owner were excellent.

The reception was very lovely and I really enjoyed my stay. They even picked me up from the train station and arranged a ride back as well, which was very kind. The hotel is centrally located, right in the middle of the old town, and they also serve breakfast. Everything was good, and the value for money was excellent.

Great hospitality, lovely staff like the pretty receptionist Xiu Xiu and the boss that helped fetch to & fro. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom is a big plus for me. The bed is so comfy and the room is nice to laze in. The courtyard is truly scenic.
