The room offers a direct view of the ancient city, and the night view is beautiful. The facilities are good! Convenient transportation and a grand lobby. If you like walking, you can walk straight into the ancient city—a reasonable distance.

The room was spacious and comfortable, with a distinctive decor style, clean and well-organized. I was especially impressed by the handwritten note from the staff, which showed genuine care and sincerity.

Stayed at Datong Guobin Hotel. It's located just outside the city wall at the northeast corner of Datong's old town, so you can't walk into the old town—you need to take a taxi both ways.

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 →
