Convenient location, with a bus stop and subway entrance right outside. The room is clean and comfortable, the environment is pleasant, and the soundproofing is good. The street view at night is especially beautiful. It's very convenient to walk to Wuyi Square, Chunyang Palace, Shanxi Hotel, and Liuxiang Zhonglou…
The highlight of the hotel is the excellent and thoughtful service. During my two-day stay, they delivered millet and bean porridge to my room every day. Check-out was set for 2 PM. At 1 PM I was still out, and a lovely lady at the front desk named Li Miao told me not to rush and to be careful, and helped extend my…
The hotel has an excellent location, within walking distance from Taiyuan Railway Station.

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
