3-Star Hotels in Datong

This guesthouse has a lovely, lively atmosphere. The animals in the courtyard really bring the place to life, and their caretaker is so kind. The animals are well-behaved and adorable! The interior furnishings are very practical, and the two-story, loft-style room was a big hit with the kids. It also has a small balcony full of plants and flowers, which was perfect for drying clothes. The owner is incredibly welcoming and even brought fresh fruit every day at noon. The location is excellent too. Highly recommend!

We had such a lovely stay in Datong! The hospitality here truly exceeded our expectations. The host was incredibly friendly, caring, and always ready to help with anything we needed. They even offered to do our laundry while we were out sightseeing, and folded everything neatly after it dried — such thoughtful service. They also helped us order food and gave great recommendations, which made our trip so much easier. The room itself was surprisingly high tech, with a fun sound control system that made the stay even more enjoyable. Although the room is on Level 2 with no lift, the host kindly carried our luggage up during check in and brought it down again when we checked out. Their helpfulness really made a difference. Breakfast was lovely — nutritious, tasty, and just the right kind of start before heading out to explore. Overall, we felt very welcomed and well taken care of. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Datong.

A very good home stay/hotel that I highly recommend for anyone who travel to Datong. It’s at the entrance of the Datong Ancient City, very convenient to walk around for shops and restaurants. The hotel staffs and owner are very friendly to accommodate our needs. Lift is available and good for family with elderly. The pick up and drop off service to stations are the best! There are some problems on the bed sizes when we checked in but the owner resolve in a friendly way. Highly recommended for a special stay!

This guesthouse boasts a wonderfully elegant ambiance and a truly superb location. Stepping out, you're right on Gulou East Street, perfect for exploring, and Southeast Yi is just a few minutes' walk away. Despite its bustling street location, the guesthouse's courtyard offers surprising tranquility. We slept soundly through the night and woke up naturally, completely undisturbed. The owner and the housekeeper were incredibly thoughtful and attentive. They were always ready to answer any questions, from before our arrival until our departure, and their responses were always very detailed. Every day, the housekeeper would kindly ask us what time we'd like breakfast the next morning, and at the agreed time, she'd even come to our room door to let us know it was ready. I absolutely adored it!!! If I ever visit again, I would definitely choose Yishui Street.

As a solo traveler, I was a little apprehensive before my trip, secretly hoping there wouldn't be any unpleasant surprises, but it turns out I worried too much. This place boasts an excellent location in Wulong Alley, with beautiful surroundings that are safe and comfortable, and fully equipped facilities. Because it's not right next to the busiest snack streets, it's very quiet at night, allowing for a truly restful sleep – huge thumbs up! It's close to the North City Wall and convenient for visiting attractions like Huayan Temple, Daiwangfu, and the Nine Dragon Screen in the ancient city. It was also easy to reach all the eateries on my must-try list, such as Longjuxiang, Zini 369, Heshengcai, and Xijindao Snacks, and I managed to check them all off! I passed by Kuixing Tower and its wishing doll countless times; perhaps it was fate, haha 😄. For those who are too lazy to even walk a kilometer, there are shared bikes available. The owner is incredibly welcoming; they contacted me half a day in advance, added me on WeChat, and waited for me at the entrance. They went over all the important details and even asked about my breakfast preferences for the next day. The breakfast itself was perfectly portioned, exquisite, and nutritious. This place exceeded my expectations, another big thumbs up! Choosing this accommodation has made me even more excited for future solo travels. I hope the owner's business thrives, and I look forward to returning with my child and family sometime in the future for another visit.

I can’t stop raving about this inn. It is a B&B style three stories tall inn located inside the Datong Ancient City. Complimentary shuttle service between the airport or railway station made it really convenient for out of town travelers. The guest room was clean and equipped with modern facilities like automatic toilets, coded entry, projection screens, etc. The inn is located near the north gate of the city amongst other accommodations. Within minutes of walking is access to the top of the city wall where bike rental is available to ride along the wall. The inn is very quiet at night. The inn is family operated and everyone was very hospitable. What sets this inn apart from other accommodations in the area is their dedication to service. The owner knew I was a tourist and new to the area, she offered to pick me up if I got lost wandering the ancient city. The breakfast came with my reservation. When the owner found out I had to depart before breakfast serving hours, she went above and beyond to prepare food and served me 30 minutes ahead of schedule. The food tasted amazing and came with abundant varieties and huge portions. It was definitely not part of the service to drop off at another venue, but the owner took me to my next accommodation 2km away. I truly appreciate everything this inn and its staff has done for me. I am so glad to have chosen to stay this beautiful little inn on my first night in Datong. I will definitely stay here again without a doubt on my next visit.

This stay would have been absolutely perfect if it weren't for the 3.5x price hike during Golden Week. Of course, setting aside peak tourist season and my own bad luck, I was genuinely thrilled with this hotel. First off, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We received a welcome gift upon arrival and a small souvenir when we checked out. They also offered coffee and a late-night snack service, and even included access to the 4th-floor gym (unfortunately, we had to leave too early on our last day to try it out). Basically, they thought of everything a guest might need. The coffee shop on the ground floor has a really charming ambiance; I even saw a foreign guest enthusiastically typing away on their laptop, which really conveyed the comfortable atmosphere. The staff's recommendations for nearby shops and eateries also showed their love and pride for the local area. And indeed, turning right outside the hotel revealed a plethora of fruit and breakfast shops. Of course, if you're willing to venture to Sunji Baozi near Taiyangcheng, that's also a great option! Back to the room: it was incredibly spacious and newly renovated! The pillows and mattress were firm enough for a very comfortable rest, and the bed was huge! The shower had a thoughtful curtain, the water pressure was strong, and the hairdryer was super powerful. I particularly loved the scent in the bathroom; it smelled very natural, not artificial at all! Could I buy some of that scent, by any chance? The reusable slippers provided were excellent. The rubber sole design clearly considered the hotel environment – no wonder the packaging said you could take them if you liked them! I was genuinely tempted! The only minor flaw was the lack of a refrigerator in the room, perhaps because Datong's weather doesn't really require one… In terms of location, it's right by the ancient city. It's walking distance to both the tourist shuttle and the ancient city itself, though it might be a bit much if you're tired and feel like taking a taxi. For dining, it's very close to several popular restaurants, though we didn't get to experience any during Golden Week. All in all, this is definitely a hotel I would recommend to friends!

We went to 4 cities during our trip to China: Shenzhen, Datong, Beijing and Shanghai. This hotel in Datong is by far the best hotel I've ever stayed in. It has everything: clean, modern rooms, friendly and helpful staff and prime location. Seriously, if you plan to come to Datong you have to stay here, your body and mind will thank you. 10/10 stars!

Vienna 3 Best Hotel (Datong Branch) offered an excellent overall experience. The location is very convenient, making it easy to get around and find places to eat. The room was clean and tidy, with a cozy and comfortable decor. The bedding was soft, and the soundproofing was also quite good. The front desk staff were warm and attentive, and check-in was efficient. The facilities are comprehensive, and it offers great value for money. I was very satisfied with my stay and highly recommend it to everyone.

The location of the hotel is perfect. It is the right place to stay when visiting the Hanging Temple and Jin Temple. The room and bed are large, especially suitable for bringing children. It is no problem for a family of three to stay in a big bed. The bathroom is separated into dry and wet areas. The breakfast is also very good. Overall, it is very cost-effective.
