Pingyao 819 Boutique Ancient Courtyard (Pingyao Gucheng County Government Store)

We loved this hotel in Pingyao! I cannot recommend it enough. Great location as it’s in the ancient city. The room was very clean and comfortable. The best part is the owner, when we first arrived he gave us a map and highlighted the main things to see in the ancient town, also told us about the free light show (we wouldn’t have known if he didn’t tell us) which is worth seeing. He also gave us some snacks when we said we were going to Mount Mian the next day. We also do not speak mandarin so all of our communication was through google translate. Staying here was such a highlight of our China trip! Highly recommend!!

Our stay was the most welcoming experience. The room is perfect and situated in this beautiful courtyard full of ancient chinese charm. The owner was very helpful and warm-hearted. When we arrived he gave us a map and marked all the major attractions for us. We communicated via translator and can recommend this place 100%!

Beautiful homestay in Pingyao. The building is perfectly preserved! The rooms are nice, the bed is hard and comfortable, hot water was good. Also very warm which is important in the winter. Perfect for a couple days! And walking distance to everything, like food, convenience stores, anything you need!

Traditional style accommodation. Amazing staff, the most careful and relaxed landlord we ever met ❤️. Always there but in a discret way. The place is so nice that people go there to produce photos dressed in traditional clothes. You can take photos with them! Rooms face a interior patio with little table for tea and nice talk. The mattress is a tatami style and the location is perfect. You are inside the old Town but not in the noisy area, but in the beginning of a small alley. Phone translator needed to communicate. Pingyao is a must visit city.

Avoid this hotel!!!! Don’t trust the reviews because the owner asked to do 5 star review ,hotel is so smelly and dirty,poor service for non Chinese customers,Pingyao has a lot of better hotels as this price and the same history building

the owner of this hotel is SO nice!!! even though i don't speak chinese, he made me feel right at home and even helped me organize a bike trip to the monastery nearby. boutique 819 is an amazing choice for backpackers like me. fair prices, super accommodation and kind owners!! thank you again!!

The hotel is beautiful, full of lights, old style fornitures and well decorated. Because of the style of the bed the mattress is thin. The host is extremely kind and helpfull.

Very friendly staff. The hotel was incredibly beautiful, traditional and in the center.

Пишем этот отзыв специально на русском языке, чтобы больше туристов из России и СНГ, которые путешествуют самостоятельно, узнали про этот отель и замечательный город Пинъяо. В старом городе очень много небольших отелей и частных апартаментов подобного рода, но мы рады, что выбрали именно этот! Отель имеет один из самых колоритных внутренних двориков в старом городе, особенно вечером! Находится в переулке близко к туристическим улочкам, поэтому там всегда тихо и спокойно. Номер выполнен в традиционном стиле, есть всё необходимое. Отличный вариант, если вы приехали на 2-3 дня. Хозяин отеля оказался очень гостеприимным: подсказал маршрут с местами, которые надо посетить в первую очередь (в том числе и вечернее шоу), посоветовал, где можно попробовать местные блюда, помог организовать фотосессию в национальном костюме, угостил местным уксусом, и вообще всегда был на связи и отвечал на наши вопросы и просьбы. Всем рекомендуем!
