I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. It’s a charming historic place, yet very comfortable and cozy — even in November, everything was pleasantly warm, and the modern bathroom was a great touch. The staff were incredibly friendly, and I’d especially like to thank Helen for making my stay truly special. The location is perfect—just a few minutes’ walk and you’re right in the heart of the old town. I didn’t miss a thing during my stay. Thank you for having me as your guest; I felt completely at home and would gladly recommend this accommodation to my friends.

The traditional rooms were just beautiful! The best place to stay inside the ancient city and for a good price too.

We highly recommend this place! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. We could even bring our dog with us with no problem. The rooms are clean and beautiful, as is the entire hotel. It's located in the old town, close to the west gate. We used a paid parking lot near the West Gate and walked less than ten minutes to reach the hotel.

We booked this place near the west gate of pingyao ancient city. The hotel is in a historical building with beautiful decorations. The room was in the same style with typical kang bed. The room was very clean and the host left us a gift on arrival. All the staff talks English. Upon arrival Fanny shown us all the tours and the details on the city map and helped us book our tickets for the city attractions. We also enjoy playing Gomoku either her in the courtyard in the evening. Breakfast is typical Chinese but you can also have western breakfast with a little fee. Helen help us with the laundry and to find our way out of the city walls which was very nice! Warmly advice for a trip to Pingyao!

The hotel is close to the west gate, the walk to the main streets is not too long so you can get straight to enjoying the city. The room was comfortable and had everything needed. Staff was very friendly and helpful, although they did try to sell many different things. I would stay there again if I came back to Pingyao

Wonderful stay in historic building. Kang bed and linen very comfortable. Easy to find close to West Gate. Reception staff very helpful with advice on visiting city and help buying tickets - thank you Fanny! Don’t expect a buffet style breakfast; hotel’s historic building means it has very limited space for cooking.Western breakfast offered for a small extra payment but Chinese breakfast was better.

Else Where (Pingyao Leifu) Hotel is located in Leijia street, Xima Road, under the ancient city wall of a thousand years. It is close to the ticket number of "Rishengchang", the first bank in China. It can be divided into several scenic spots.

The hotel was first built in Wanli period, and has been repaired and supplemented for 400 years. It is a rare ancient courtyard in the north of China. The courtyard maintains the style of Ming and Qing Dynasties. Its integrity, authenticity, nature and hundreds of years of cultural heritage are few in the ancient city.

The courtyard is quiet, square and decorated with colorful paintings, which embodies traditional culture everywhere.

The couplets attached to the eaves post extol the beauty of mountains and rivers, mark the way of dealing with the world, and chant the ambition of the swan with elegant style. The courtyard is like stepping into a palace of traditional Chinese culture.

The traditional structure of ancient buildings and the traditional spirit of ancient Chinese courtyards are respected in other inns, which create a time experience with profound cultural connotation and beyond regional cultural characteristics for tourists from all walks of life.
