The location is great, right on the edge of the old city. It's less than a 20-minute walk to the old city, or a short taxi ride for the minimum fare. Getting to Yungang Grottoes takes about half an hour. The environment is quite quiet and the facilities are decent. I particularly loved that the projector came with VIP access! Breakfast was healthy, clean, and hygienic.

Facilities: The design is excellent, and all the amenities are thoughtfully arranged and very practical. The bed and pillows are incredibly comfortable; lying down felt so therapeutic, and I fell asleep almost instantly.
Hygiene: The hygiene was impeccable.
Environment: The location is perfect, within walking distance of Daiwang Mansion, Drum Tower, and Huayan Temple. After watching the iron flower performance at night, it was just a short stroll back to bed.
Service: The service was incredibly attentive and prompt. The butler recommended many delicious local eateries, and they were all indeed fantastic. The tea at the front desk was also delightful; I'd fill my thermos every time I went out – it was so comforting. They even offered a thoughtful bedtime gift, making the overall experience incredibly pleasant.

Guest UserTraveling solo to Datong, I was looking for a quiet place to stay for a few days, and 'Zhi Fou Zhi Fou Courtyard Designer Inn' perfectly fulfilled all my fantasies of a 'hidden courtyard retreat.' The inn is located inside Wuding Gate, on Ziyun Huacheng Jiuxianli street, right at the doorstep of Daiwangfu, making it convenient to go anywhere. The north gate area is quiet, and it's an easy stroll to the ancient city center.
I booked the 'Deep Sleep, Leftover Wine | Zhi Fou No. 2 Courtyard · Listening to Rain Family Suite,' which was more than enough space for one person. The room was clean and tidy with excellent facilities. What impressed me most was the bed – the mattress was just right, not too soft and not too hard; once I lay down, I didn't want to get up. I later learned that the owner truly invests in their bedding. The tea room was my favorite spot every day. Brewing a pot of tea and reading a book, with the silhouette of the ancient city wall outside the window, that sense of tranquil relaxation amidst the hustle and bustle is something I hadn't experienced in a long time.
I must particularly praise the service. The owner hadn't eaten after returning from the Hanging Temple late at night, and one of the staff members ran out to buy instant noodles for him. These small details really warm your heart. The free pick-up service was hassle-free, and the owner even helped me book a reservation at Fenglin Pavilion. The welcome fruit and snacks were also perfectly arranged. The inn allows pets without any extra charge. Although I was traveling alone this time, seeing other guests with their dogs sunbathing in the courtyard felt incredibly heartwarming.
The biggest fear when traveling alone is staying somewhere desolate, but here, the elegance of the designer courtyard, the warmth of the housekeeper, and the tranquility of the ancient city wall made me feel incredibly well taken care of. Next time I bring my family to Datong, I will definitely choose this place again.

Julz d’traveller*The staff are nice to accomodate us.
*The place is close to the scenic spot (few minutes by car).
*The breakfast is not too bad. Few choices but it will fill you up.No drinks (juice or coffee).
*The accomodation was nice to drop and pick us up at the scenic area.They dropped us off to the bus station going to Datong city.
*Problem was the bad odour coming from the toilet. We think it’s from the drainage. We can’t even open the door for few minutes for air to come in because it is freezing. It’s negative degrees.
*The room was nice and comfortable. I can’t find photos or video of the interior. The size of the room is perfect. It has a long bench.Table with 1 small chair.Tv, closet, slippers,toothbrush, hair dryer,kettle and 2 bottle of water.
*Last picture was epic:)

This guesthouse boasts an excellent location in the East Street of Gulou (Drum Tower) in the ancient city. It's a tranquil oasis amidst the bustling downtown, with a rich historical background. It faces Guandi Temple directly, with Taiping Tower to its north, and a Fo Xiaoban specialty store just 10 meters to the east. Walking west leads you to Gulou (Drum Tower), and Huayan Temple is just 600 meters away. Along the way, you'll pass numerous popular restaurants like Zini 369, Longjuxiang, and Fenglingge. The ancient city's tourist shuttle bus station is also a convenient 20-minute walk away. The rooms have an antique charm and feature a wet/dry separation bathroom. The host provides warm and attentive butler service, even greeting guests at the door and helping with luggage. There's also a friendly cat in the courtyard you can pet. It's a pet-friendly establishment.

We had a happy experience checking in at this hotel. The receptionist was very pleasant and helpful. We loved our room! It was bright and cheerful and spacious. The shower and drainage was very good.
Location is fantastic, near the railway station and many bus services, especially for going to Yungang grottoes. There was a mall, with a hypermarket in the basement and minimarts around.
What we like most was there was a washing machine and dryer for guests to use, free of charge!
If we ever come to Datong again, we would stay here. Highly recommend this place!

Guest UserWe had an amazing stay and would highly recommend this hotel!
The location is perfect for exploring the city center on foot. The hotel is brand new while beautifully preserving a traditional Chinese style, creating a unique and welcoming atmosphere.
What truly made our stay exceptional was the staff. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help with a genuine smile. They went above and beyond to meet all of our needs and even welcomed us with a lovely afternoon snack, which was a very thoughtful touch.
The breakfast was delicious, authentic Chinese cuisine with a wide variety of choices. We especially appreciated how seriously they take food allergies and dietary requirements, something that is unfortunately not common everywhere. Their attention to detail and willingness to accommodate every request made us feel truly cared for.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We will definitely come back on our next visit!

sylva7The hotel is new (the TV screen protector hadn't even been removed yet) and the closets weren't fully set up.
If you're arriving by car, you access the hotel via the second-level underground parking lot.
Communication with the staff on Trip.com before arrival was excellent when I needed information.
The rooms we chose were in the basement, but the hallway was lit by natural light through skylights.
The owners don't speak English, but we managed to communicate using a translation app.
They were very responsive and resolved any issues, even at midnight.
The showers are a bit cramped; either the shower cabin isn't perfectly square, or in the other room, the space between the shower cabin and the sink is restricted.
Housekeeping was done daily, and water bottles were provided.
However, the toilet paper was supplied in very small quantities. If you ask at reception, they'll give you more, but it's always a hassle to have to go and ask when a normal amount could be provided initially. We only had one roll, which didn't seem full, regardless of whether you had a room for two or three people.
The electrical outlets don't accommodate French plugs, similar to what you find in Shanghai and Beijing.
There's no laundry service available.
The location is good, in a new district that's still under construction.
The alley leading to it at night is lovely, with the illuminated storefronts of the various houses.
The hotel can arrange a paid taxi service between the station and the hotel for guests staying in the basement rooms.
The rooms are well-equipped; only a few finishing touches, like bathroom caulking, are still needed.

The hotel is located right by the roadside. It's a budget hotel, and the front desk staff were incredibly welcoming, leaving a lasting impression. Our stay was a pleasant surprise, far exceeding our expectations. From the moment we entered the lobby, the staff's friendly smiles and efficient, professional service impressed us. The rooms were elegantly designed, the bedding was very comfortable, and the bathroom featured a separate shower and toilet with ample water pressure – every detail reflected a commitment to quality.
The hotel's meticulous service was particularly commendable: upon learning we were traveling by car, they proactively offered suggestions on nearby transportation. This provided a perfect way to relax after a long journey.
The excellent location, comprehensive facilities, and personalized service complemented each other perfectly, making for a comfortable and pleasant stay. It wasn't just a place to rest during our trip, but also a part of a wonderful memory. This will definitely be our top choice for our next visit, and we will highly recommend it to our friends and family!

Amazing, 3 minutes from the train station and surrounded by a lot of restaurants. I was able to check in super early which was a very nice experience after a long train trip.
The room is just perfect, private bathroom, comfortable bed and it's a warm place.
