"Such a beautiful boutique hotel. Courtyard is so pretty and the rooms were really nice too. Bathtub in the bedroom (additional to the shower). Also very helpful and friendly staff, driver took us around the ancient town and told us about all the main tourist attractions. A short walk to the main streets (south street and west street). Would recommend :)"

GGuest UserAs a native of Shanxi, I have to accompany friends from other places to Pingyao from time to time. Because the attractions in central Shanxi are relatively dense and not far away, there are few opportunities to stay in Pingyao Ancient City. This time, I happened to take my family to Pingyao for an impromptu family trip. Pingyao Ancient City has changed a lot in recent years. The battery cars are managed uniformly and everyone changes cars outside the city to enter the ancient city, so the overall walking atmosphere is very good.
Taotang Hotel has a total of 10 rooms, each of which is very large. The overall hardware and software are very attentive, the traditional Shanxi courtyard design, and the butler-style service are comprehensively considered to be the highest-end hotel in Pingyao Ancient City. The hotel is located on the core main street. Because we brought children and large and small bags of luggage, the boss and the waiter personally picked us up throughout the journey, and the room also installed a child fence for the baby! Everything was done very carefully, and the food for the young baby was specially arranged in the kitchen without adding oil and salt! Thank you so much!
Different from the professional service training and rhetoric of traditional hotels; the boss and staff are more like family members, they don’t say any polite words but take care of the guests’ needs anytime and anywhere. We Shanxi people are reserved and real in our bones!
I wish the hotel business to be prosperous and all aspects will be further improved!
Welcome everyone to travel to Shanxi!

GGuest UserI've found this hidden gem of a hotel in the ancient city!
I recently visited the ancient city and stayed at a truly amazing hotel. I absolutely have to recommend it to everyone!
🌆 Perfect Location: The hotel is right at the north gate of the ancient city, allowing you to explore the city as soon as you step out of the hotel. Popular attractions and food stalls are just a few minutes' walk away. This location is simply unbeatable, saving you a ton of time and energy.
👦 Superb Service: When I arrived at the north gate, the handsome front desk staff was already waiting for me. They not only helped me carry my luggage all the way to my room, but were also incredibly attentive. During check-in, they meticulously explained the room's amenities, hand-painted a food map of the surrounding area, and recommended many local specialties, which immediately helped me find my way around.
🏠 The Room and Courtyard Have an Antique Charm: Upon entering the hotel courtyard, a vibrant, ancient atmosphere washes over you. Every detail, from greenery and rockery to flowing water, exudes elegance. The room was even more surprising, with its wooden furniture and carved window lattices, it felt like a trip back to ancient times. The bed was perfectly firm, and the linens were clean and comfortable, making for a truly peaceful stay.
👘 Special Jin Dynasty Costumes for Young Lady Photography: I have to mention the hotel's Jin Dynasty Costumes for Young Lady Photography service. The costumes the hostess meticulously prepared were truly exquisite, both in fabric and workmanship, far superior to those rented on the street. The hostess herself was beautiful and welcoming. Not only did she help me choose the perfect outfit, she also did my makeup and hair herself. She was incredibly helpful during the photoshoot, so I didn't have to worry about any awkward moments. The photos I took were incredibly well-liked on my social media.
I was absolutely delighted with my stay. From the service to the ambiance, every detail was truly captivating. If you're planning a trip to the ancient city, I highly recommend this hotel; I'm sure you'll love it too!

ZZhuangjianvwangThis is my first time in Pingyao Ancient Town. I searched for Pingyuan Mansion on Ctrip. I was pleasantly surprised. The butler-style service is considerate and thoughtful. From phone reservations to pick-up and drop-off at the station, I felt professional, comprehensive and well-trained service. The courtyard-style building is antique, with modern and trendy brand appliances. There are fruits every day, and there are souvenirs when you leave. The service is comparable to or even exceeds that of star-rated hotels. The breakfast tastes high-end, exquisite and delicious. The manager and the waiter are elegant, enthusiastic and polite, and the taxi call is thoughtful and orderly. The chartered driver Xiao Zhang is patient and dedicated, and also helped us introduce the local customs in detail, which benefited us a lot. This is an unforgettable and wonderful trip.

GGuest UserYisu Mansion brought me too many surprises and touches. I recommend everyone to choose her home when coming to Pingyao. First of all, I really want to write a review and share it with you. The store has not made any request to write a review. The landlady was warm and thoughtful, and arranged everything for us in an orderly manner. No matter what time you travel, the mansion's car is always on call. In short, listen to the boss lady and avoid all pitfalls. The rooms in the mansion are very clean, and the whole courtyard is filled with the smell of the ancient city. I have a few recommendations: You must watch Pingyao Again, it’s so shocking. Just let the lady boss draw you a map of the scenic spots. I have tried it for everyone. Don’t make the mistake of choosing Kang Qian Ji, Bai Shan Xi, and Hong Wu Ji. If you want to bring some Pingyao beef, just ask the proprietress to buy the kind she has for breakfast. I highly recommend asking the boss lady to contact you for travel photography, the photos are so good😀. If there is one drawback, it is that the proprietress is too low-key. She secretly tells everyone that her private wine is so delicious that you must buy a bottle and try it. If I don’t tell you this, the boss lady won’t take the initiative to tell you either😄

GGuest UserA few days ago, I went out with my boyfriend and booked this inn with a relatively high cost performance. I mainly like the ancient style of decoration. It was my first time staying in a kang and I felt very comfortable. The kang was very big and the bathroom was very clean. Overall, it was very good. From the second floor, you can see the scenery of the city wall, which looks very nice!

AAnonymous UserThis hotel was stunning. Located in the heart of the city. Very charming, it feels like going back in time.
Staff is extremely nice and helpful. Crystal at concierge was there for us all the time.
Definitely recommended.
Only down point: the hotel is very difficult to find. To keep a higher level of exclusivity there is not a single indication on the street. Took a while and some local help to manage.

+ It is a new and beautiful place to stay.
+ Very kind, friendly and polite staff.
+ Spacious bathroom.
+ When leaving early the taxi driver can pick you up in front of the hotel.
Cons
— The hotel is too expensive.
— Not a smoke free hotel. There was even smoke inside the lobby and the second night it was all over our room too (airconditioning?).
— The first night we tried the dinner, but it was not good. They have photos of the food, but it doesn’t match with what you get. We ordered salmon sushi and got FROZEN sushi instead which was obviously not eatable.
— When we asked for a tea on the terrace we were charged 48 Yuan per person which is way too expensive.
— The bedroom is a bit too small and has the same size as the bathroom.

VVAYangExcellent location with a nice intro buffet dinner for local cuisine and breakfast included. Next to an important Taoist shrine and provision shops. Also within 5-10 min walk from the “New East Gate” which is important if you want to take a taxi for sights outside the walled city. Note outside vehicles are not allowed to get into the walled city. Extremely helpful staff and the high speed rail station to hotel transfer service is much appreciated especially since outside taxi cannot get into the hotel location. We speak mandarin and found the ancient city tour guides well worth the money. Look for the guides with the standardised purple windbreakers in winter. Standardised price but worth every cent. Glad my family took the detour to Ping Yao

SSven FBA very nice hotel with very friendly staff and nice rooms. We recommend the VIP building. The breakfast was chinese and western. The hotel is placed outside the city wall and can be reached easily with taxi or DiDi, but only a few steps to enter the ancient city area. The only field to improve is some basic English for foreign guests, but at the end we managed to communicate :-). See you again!

JJeffery.truongThe ancient city Pingyao and the Yundingxuan hotel blowed our mind. The hotel provide free pickup from the train station. We took the high speed train arrived at Pingyaocheng station which is around 15 minutes away from the ancient city. When you enter the city wall gate, you will be amazed of the narrow streets and cobblestone road. Picked Yundingxuan hotel because it was closed to the North gate so
If the taxi was to dropped us off it’ll be a short walk but the driver dropped us off near the hotel because cars are not allowed within the main streets.
The hotel is closed to 200 years old and have characteristics of the Ming and Qing dynasties. I was born in Vietnam,
With roots to China but raised up in the US since I was 7 years old. I’ve seen Chinese movies but nothing will prepare you to the hotel and the ancient city. I was surprised how big the hotel complex was. All the staff were very nice, the main host spoke English, and the breakfasts were traditional Chinese breakfast. We stayed two nights and we felt safe throughout our visit. My wife and daughter appreciated the three hotel cats and all the felines throughout the city.
I’m sure the other hotels are fantastic and will give your a unique experience but I can vouch for Yundingxuan. Just be prepared to get out your comfort zone but be amazed by the visual and taste of Pingyao Ancient City.
