FUNGEE Hotel (Dongxin Plaza, Datong) ★★★★

📍 No. 30, Yunbo Road, Pingcheng District, Datong

"The room was clean and bright, and the zero-pressure mattress was incredibly comfortable. The smart facilities were a nice touch. I loved the claw machine in the lobby, and the game coins left as a room surprise were a lot of fun. The breakfast had a great variety, and the local lamb offal soup and knife-cut noodles were delicious. The free laundry room and Hanfu experience were unexpected bonuses. The service was attentive, the location was convenient, and it offered excellent value for money. Definitely worth returning!"

9.2 (851 reviews)

Lihao International Hotel ★★★★★

📍 10 meters southwest of the intersection of Rende North Road and Huaixian West Street, Huairen

"The hotel was new and the rooms were clean, but the service was terrible! We arrived at the front desk at night, and there were three or four staff members standing there laughing and joking. After I showed my ID, they told me that someone had already checked me in?! It turned out that after a long discussion, they realized it was because a man with the same name as me had booked the same room type, and they gave him the room I had booked in advance (I had noted that I didn't want the last room and wanted it away from the elevator)?! Such a big hotel?! Don't they even check the information when registering guests? The phone numbers are different, and the genders are different too?! While I was standing at the front desk late at night waiting for them to resolve the issue, the receptionist kept yelling about what to do about the man's booking?! Where was I supposed to stand?! She didn't even apologize, and she was yelling at me about the wrong booking!! Am I supposed to fix her problem? Is this how you train your staff for such a big hotel? And this is supposed to be number one on the luxury list? Is this the level of service you're providing? Don't tell me it's because there are too many guests during the Chinese New Year. If you're so busy during the holidays, how could you make a mistake checking guest information? After making me stand for at least ten minutes, they finally gave me a room. They even gave me a last-minute room near the elevator! When I saw this, I called the front desk, and they said, "Oh, all the rooms you booked are last-minute rooms?" Why didn't you write on the booking page that all City View Suites are last-minute rooms? It felt like the staff didn't know what they were doing; the service was completely disproportionate to the hotel's quality! Oh, and by the way, the laundry room was closed during the New Year period, and they didn't mention this at all when I messaged customer service during booking. 😃 The score is for cleanliness and hotel infrastructure; service is zero."

9.7 (545 reviews)

Pingyun Bieyuan (Ancient City Wall Store) ★★★★

📍 No. 10-5, Zone 3, Renhe Fang, Ziyun Huacheng, Gucheng Subdistrict, Pingcheng District, Datong

"Extremely satisfied! Every day, drinks, teas, coffee capsules are replenished, and the room is cleaned meticulously. The mattress is also super comfortable. The staff are very polite and always greet you. They provide L'Occitane toiletries, which, while not super expensive, show attention to detail and elevate the experience. The breakfast is lavish and starts at 7 AM; I recommend going early as it can get crowded. The restaurant downstairs is delicious, affordable, and no waiting in line – fantastic!"

The hotel's decor is a bit dated, but the staff's enthusiasm more than makes up for it. The front desk was always helpful with any issues.

Kyoto International Hotel (Datong Daqing Road RT-Mart)

"Facilities: The hotel seems newly opened; all the facilities are brand new. Cleanliness: This was disappointing. Upon arrival, the front desk said they had assigned us a cleaned room, but the toilet was disgusting and hadn't been cleaned at all before we checked in. However, the staff were very responsible and quickly called someone to clean it. Service: The front desk staff were welcoming, and the female manager was attentive and responsible. The breakfast was a bit too simple, and the restaurant was small, with only 6 square tables and 1 round table. During the summer peak season, you might have to wait for a table in the morning."

"This hotel is truly excellent, and the staff are incredibly warm and attentive! As soon as you enter the lobby, the front desk staff greet you, and they're patient in answering any questions. The self-service tea bar, coffee, and snacks are all great too. The rooms are spacious, very clean, and even come with an AI assistant (Xiao Ai Tong Xue), which is super convenient. The breakfast spread is also extensive, with plenty of hot and cold dishes, main courses, and fruits! Seriously, I'm not exaggerating – I genuinely recommend this place for anyone visiting Datong! 👍🏻"

Shangdu  Hotel Hotels in Datong

Shangdu Hotel

"This hotel offers massage and bathing facilities. The rooms are spacious, and the bedding is quite comfortable. We were a large group, so we booked three rooms. In one room, the duvet cover felt a bit damp, probably due to the weather and not being dried thoroughly. We reported it, and they promptly replaced it. I particularly want to recommend the massages in the massage area; the technique was excellent, and the price was very reasonable. It was perfect for unwinding after a day of city walking. The only slight drawback is that the restaurant is shared with the adjacent eLong hotel, and the food there wasn't quite up to par."

"A very nice, calm, and clean hotel. The staff were extremely kind and helpful throughout our stay. I highly recommend it. The driver arranged by the hotel was excellent as well, and I would also recommend booking activities directly through them."

"The bedding was so soft and comfortable, I slept like a log. The bathroom was spotless and odor-free, showing great attention to detail. The hotel was very thoughtful, providing a map that indicated distances to various places, which was really helpful. Plus, it's right next to 'Beiwai Renjia,' literally right next door, which is super convenient – especially if it's busy, you can just order takeout and bring it back to the hotel. 'Hongya Restaurant' is also right nearby. All in all, it's incredibly convenient. I'll definitely stay here again next time; it's easy to get everywhere, especially for dining. Very satisfied!"

OKDAY Hotel (Datong Ancient City, Huayan Temple, Datong) ★★★★
"I stayed at this hotel for two days and had a poor experience. I initially chose it because it had parking and was close to the attractions. When I arrived, the security guard was very welcoming, and parking was convenient. Upon entering the room, I found the facilities to be excellent, as it's a newly opened hotel. However, the front desk's service attitude was very disappointing. When checking in, the self-service machine wasn't working, and the front desk didn't inform us, making us wait over ten minutes to complete the check-in. Since two adults were staying, we wanted two room cards for easier access. When I asked the front desk for an additional card, they didn't immediately agree, which made me feel quite uncomfortable. The complimentary children's slippers and toothbrushes were too small, unsuitable for children over seven years old, and the hotel didn't seem to have a solution for this. The cleaning staff's tidiness was also subpar. It seems the hotel staff hasn't been properly trained. For a new hotel, the facilities and rooms are quite good, but the staff training is genuinely poor. This is my honest experience after two days, and it's my first time writing a hotel review. I hope the hotel can make improvements."

Datong Hanting Holiday Hotel (Datong Ancient City) ★★★
"The advantages are that it is very close to the ancient city, the beds are relatively clean, and the baths have flush water. Disadvantages: 1. It is inconvenient to eat around. 2. The room is very small, with a double bed and no room for two people to put their suitcases. 3. It may be a newly opened hotel and it is not very standardized yet. The front desk service is not good enough. The drain in the shower room is a bit blocked, which is not very smooth, but it does not affect the bathing. 4. The hotel elevator is not a card-operated elevator."
