This inn is situated on the east side of Huayan Temple Square, right next to Huayan Temple. It's also a short distance from other attractions like Chunyang Palace, the Drum Tower, and Daiwang Palace. With numerous eateries nearby, such as Longjuxiang Shaomai Restaurant, it's incredibly convenient for both sightseeing and enjoying local delicacies. The inn's interior boasts traditional-style decor, creating a tranquil and timeless ambiance that truly transports guests back in time. Each room is uniquely themed, and while some might be a bit compact, they are distinctively and tastefully furnished, offering a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Furthermore, the rooms are immaculately clean.

A very pleasant stay at the Pipa Old Inn. A very historical building, though the place is equipped with all necessary modern amenities save for an elevator. Fortunately the staff very helpful assisted us with lugging up our heavy luggage to our room on the 3rd floor. Very beautifully decorated and strategically located in the heart of Datong Ancient City. Very pleasant and helpful staff who helped us plan and arrange our trips around Datong though sadly, they weren't very proficient in English (but that's common in China). Free breakfast was included in our stay and there was a decent spread though the menu didn't change much over our stay there save for one or two vegetable dishes being rotated. Overall definitely worth a return trip and stay in Datong Ancient City.

Excellent experience.  Hotel has such rich history based on Wang Zhaojun, a famous ancient Chinese heroine beauty and the story of her playing pipa. The history even published a book on her history.  It is in central area within the Datong ancient history.  Boss lady served on Sunday and eagerly shared local delicacy at breakfast.

This guesthouse truly embraces a wonderful sense of traditional cultural heritage. The service is excellent, and I highly recommend it. Its location is superb, situated right near the Bell Tower and adjacent to Huayan Temple and the Daiwang Mansion Scenic Area. There are also many restaurants nearby, such as 'San Dao Cai', making dining very convenient. The service is incredibly thoughtful and personalized, and they provide a delicious breakfast. What truly stands out is that the guesthouse itself feels like a small museum; staying here offers an extraordinary experience, making it an excellent choice for any traveler.

The hotel boasts an excellent location and a pleasant environment. It's equipped with a washer and dryer, and parking is conveniently available nearby. The Drum Tower is right outside, making it perfect for evening strolls and enjoying the night views. It's also very close to other attractions. The service was warm and attentive; for guests driving, staff will guide you to the parking lot and assist with your luggage. Breakfast offered a good variety.
