"We stayed one night at this hotel and had a really lovely experience. The service was wonderful, everyone was super helpful and friendly. They picked us up and dropped us at the station which was such a nice touch and made everything very easy. We had a very nice Chinese breakfast, they went through what was included. they gave us really good recommendations for things to see and where to eat in the ancient city. The hotel itself is very beautiful and quiet, which made the stay even more enjoyable. Pingyao Ancient City is such a charming place, full of history, and it’s definitely worth staying overnight to see it all lit up in the evening. We would definitely recommend this hotel and just want to say thank you to everyone for making our stay so lovely 😊"

"Tauthang Pingyao Boutique Hotel is truly the finest gem within the ancient city — a rare balance of soulful hospitality and refined comfort. The software of the hotel is extraordinary: every staff interaction feels warm, attentive, and genuine, as if being welcomed into a graceful private residence rather than a hotel. The amenities and physical environment match this excellence — thoughtfully designed rooms blending historic charm with modern luxury, immaculate details in every corner, and facilities that transform a stay into a cultural experience. It is a place where service and space complement one another perfectly, offering guests not only comfort but also a sense of belonging and inspiration.” Live as great as Jin billionaire"

"A 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!"

"The location is right by the ancient city gate. You can park your car directly at the gate and walk in. This homestay is very thoughtful; they helped us book discounted tickets for 'Another Pingyao' in advance, and during our stay, they assisted with calling taxis, booking restaurants, and arranging a tour guide. When an elder accidentally fell in the room, the landlady even bought spray and plasters for them. The room was very comfortable, and the breakfast had a good variety and was delicious; they were also flexible with adding or removing items, and there was a sweet soup every day. The only minor complaint might be that the pillows were a bit too firm..."

"Client service and proactivity needs to be improved. The hotel does not give any notice in advance that taxis cannot reach the hotel. We had to walk for 2 km with our luggage to reach the hotel. We had to ask the reception for a taxi on the day of departure. It never crossed their minds that we may need one instead of walking another 2 km! Lack of initiative ans sense of service Disappointing for one of the best hotels in town"

"This hotel boasts an excellent location within the ancient city walls, right by the pedestrian street. The service was impeccable; after parking at the north gate, two hotel staff members met us with a cart to help with our luggage. They then escorted us on a scenic vehicle directly to the hotel entrance. The hotel itself is incredibly picturesque, perfect for photos in traditional attire. It's quiet and elegant, truly making you feel like you've stepped back in time. All the facilities are new, featuring smart home technology, yet maintaining an authentic ancient Chinese style. The breakfast was plentiful, light, and nutritious, offering a good variety of meats, vegetables, and whole grains. Other meals can be ordered à la carte. I really love this hotel and would definitely stay here again if I return to Pingyao! Many thanks to all the hotel staff for their warm hospitality!"

"From check-in to check-out, my stay was incredibly pleasant. The environment is quaint and tranquil, perfectly fitting the ancient city's vibe. The room was clean and hygienic, the bedding comfortable, and there was plenty of hot water. The service was attentive and thoughtful, and the location was convenient for getting around. It offers excellent value for money and is the perfect place to stay when visiting Pingyao."

"My first trip of 2026 was completely healed by the thoughtful service at Pingyuan Mansion! As someone who's sensitive to the cold, my biggest worry when traveling is chilly accommodations, but the underfloor heating throughout the entire house was a pleasant surprise—I was enveloped in warmth the moment I stepped inside, instantly shedding my heavy coat and letting my fatigue melt away as I walked barefoot on the warm floor! The indoor temperature was just right, comfortably and naturally warm! What was even more touching was the consistently enthusiastic service. I received a confirmation message for pick-up before departure, and as soon as I exited the high-speed rail station, I saw staff who proactively helped with my luggage and opened the car door. We chatted about local travel tips along the way, and I easily arrived at my accommodation in just twenty minutes. Upon check-in, the front desk patiently explained how to use the facilities and even shared tips on avoiding peak tourist seasons during the New Year's holiday. During my stay, they responded incredibly quickly to any needs I had, and their attentive attention to detail made me feel incredibly welcome, like being at a friend's house. I must praise the free pick-up and drop-off service! During the New Year's Day holiday, train stations are crowded and congested. No need to worry about taxis or lugging luggage around; the hotel provides round-trip transportation from the station, saving you time and hassle—perfect for families traveling with elderly members and young children. From the comforting underfloor heating to the warm and attentive service, and the hassle-free station transfers, every detail at Pingyuan Gongfu Hotel caters to your travel needs. This New Year's Day, this pleasant accommodation experience made my trip incredibly enjoyable! I've already recommended it to friends who are traveling, and I'll definitely choose it again next time!"

"The hotel is at a good location, staff is friendly, room is clean and cosy. The hotel provide pick-up service from the train station, 2 ways, just need to let them know earlier so they can arrange."

"The location is great, nestled between Yingxun Gate (South Gate) and Shangxi Gate, making it convenient for sightseeing yet surprisingly quiet. The facilities are good, but what really impressed me was picture #2 [assuming this refers to a specific feature/amenity shown in a picture]. I hope they can plug in the outlets before guests check in. The buckwheat pillow was very comfortable! The service was excellent; they communicated in advance about pickup/drop-off and even offered to drive me to attractions. Breakfast was abundant, featuring local specialties like Pingyao beef. It was well-balanced and tasty. The menu changed over the two days, though for me, there was a bit too much meat. If a full buffet isn't feasible, perhaps offering an à la carte menu where guests can choose their items would help reduce waste. And the cats at the hotel are adorable!"
