Hot Springs Hotels in Shanxi, China

"This place has its own dedicated parking, conveniently located right behind Xinzhou Ancient City, making it super easy to get around. Charging and fueling your car is a breeze. You can bring back anything you buy in the ancient city and enjoy it at your leisure in your room. The private hot spring in the courtyard was a great experience – perfect for soaking while munching on snacks and sipping tea. It even has a retractable roof with lights, so you can enjoy it at night too. The service was top-notch; they provided a pet gift package and a welcome gift, which our dog loved! The staff were incredibly responsive, charming, and generous. We'll definitely be back!"

"This hotel is located within the ancient city scenic area, close to an underground parking lot, and not far from Xiurong Academy. There's a bar nearby, which can be a bit noisy, but it didn't bother my sleep. If you're a light sleeper, you might want to check with the hotel in advance. For late-night snacks, they offer congee and pre-packaged snacks like Daliyuan mini breads and biscuits. The breakfast spread is quite comprehensive, though there aren't many hot dishes. The hotel staff are all very polite and provide excellent service, and they even gave me a small souvenir when I checked out. Overall, I'd give it a 9.5 out of 10."

"This hotel opened in 2025. The hotel building is three stories, and the hot spring building is also three stories. The second floor of the hotel features a spa massage area, while the third floor houses guest rooms and an outdoor hot spring. The hot spring building has a hot spring pool on the first floor and a jjimjilbang (Korean sauna), restaurant, and playground on the second floor. I arrived at the hotel in the afternoon, checked in, and then relaxed in my room. The hot spring admission is included with my stay. While the hot springs are in a separate building, they're very close, making them convenient to get to. After receiving my admission ticket, I entered the hot spring building. The hot spring facilities are spacious and very clean, with a well-equipped children's area. There are both indoor and outdoor hot springs, and the overall environment is truly wonderful. After enjoying the hot springs, I had a meal, rested for a while, and then enjoyed some fruit at the restaurant. I had a very relaxing and comfortable night. The next morning, after breakfast, I visited the hotel spa I had reserved the day before. The hotel's value for money was excellent, and the fact that I could enjoy a massage while taking in the beautiful scenery was my biggest draw."

"I have been wrapped in high pressure by work all year round. I have stayed in countless hotels, large and small. I thought it was difficult to have surprises. This stay made me feel that the experience was better. The overall texture, space design, and room configuration have achieved a real five-star level. Quiet in the middle of noisy, You can feel the fireworks of the ancient city, and you can completely isolate the noise when you return to the room. The comfort of the bedding is very good. It has not been such a deep sleep for a long time. I have soaked in the hot springs. The fatigue of running here is completely smoothed. The service is also very good. It completely refreshed my understanding of the five-tier small city of Zhangzhou. I will come here for business trips later. This will also become my preferred resident hotel, and it is highly recommended that business high pressure people come here to rest and charge."

"I stayed in the ”Ning” courtyard, a large king room. The courtyard was unique and tranquil. Next time, I'm definitely booking the ”Chong” courtyard! Even though it's a historic building hotel with no direct elevator access, the concierges Zhang Yikang and Zhao Kaihao were incredibly warm and thoughtful. They promptly helped with my luggage both upon arrival and departure, and I sincerely thank them for that!"

"This trip was a complete and unexpected delight. My husband and I casually chose Xinzhou Ancient City from the map, not expecting much, because I thought all ancient cities were the same: quaint shops, sparse crowds, and touristy, commercially-run potato towers… However, this time, I truly fell in love with Xinzhou Ancient City. Our first stop was the guesthouse ”Peach Blossom Island. Jianghu.” The owner had sent us detailed directions and a list of times and locations for popular activities in the ancient city beforehand. Upon arrival, the owner and a friendly staff member were already waiting at the door, helping with parking and luggage. The interior was refreshingly decorated, giving off a feeling of ”entering Peach Blossom Island, filled with chivalry and loyalty!” Through the clean windows and tables, we could see the lush greenery of the inner corridor, a welcome respite from our cooped-up lives. A notice on the wall stated: if you are dissatisfied with the cleanliness or service, you can receive a pound of millet as a gift. 😁😁😁 I just want to say the owner is incredibly generous. After collecting our room key, we walked along the quietly flowing, intricately carved stone steps to our room. The ”green trees, red fish, and swimming turtles” along the way filled us with the joy of nature. Even the room names revealed the owner's chivalrous spirit and fondness for martial arts—Kongtong Sect, Huashan Sect, Wudang Sect… Snacks and fruit were already laid out in the room. The room was very clean, and the TV was a projector. We happened to be watching the Asian Cup U23 match that evening, and the projection was very clear; we could comfortably and clearly watch the movie from the bed. After settling in, my husband and I planned to explore the surrounding area. We were wondering where to go when the owner, seemingly noticing our hesitation, proactively came forward and introduced us to the brief history of the ancient city, the must-see spots, cultural and tourist attractions, and routes. With the owner's recommendations and warnings against pitfalls, my husband and I strolled around, enjoying delicious food along the way, and had a wonderful time. 😉 Xinzhou Ancient City is absolutely a perfect recommendation, but I won't elaborate further here. Because the return trip was quite long, I got up at 5 a.m. Before leaving, the owner even insisted on giving me a bag of millet weighing one pound. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 (ps: Can I have a ton of this kind of owner?) After leaving, the owner messaged me saying he'd left his slippers at the store. I was thinking of just leaving them, but then I realized I really didn't want them, since I'd worn them for years and had an attachment to them. So I told him to help me send them back and I'd cover the shipping cost. Later, the owner sent the slippers back, but refused to charge for shipping. 🤗🤗🤗 All I want to say is ”Peach Blossom Island. Jianghu,” see you again in the Jianghu! 🥰🥰🥰"

"A stay that completely exceeded expectations ～ I haven't lived in a homestay for a long time since the epidemic. The impression of the homestay before was actually not very good, especially I felt that the management was chaotic and the health was worrying. This time I came to the ancient city of Zhangzhou and found that the homestay is a feature, so I will try again. I am very satisfied! The housekeeper docked before check-in. The service was very warm and thoughtful. There was a battery car to pick up and drop off at the intersection. In fact, there were few steps, but it was intimate. ～ The small courtyard environment is very good, it is a scenery in itself, there are cute kittens and rabbits and small fish, the children have a great time playing ～ The room is very clean, the hot spring pool is very deep, the water is super fast, the rose dried flowers are provided, and there are daily fruit snacks. It is suitable for enjoying the linen and toiletries while taking a bath. The selection standard is very high, especially the toiletries, usually there are balmains that can be seen in high-end five-star hotels. Very unexpected, the quality of the toothbrush is even better than the quality of the five-star hotel, and the disposable towel toilet cover wet toilet paper is also provided, which is very user-friendly and completely broke my inherent impression of the hotel. And the location is first-rate, go out is the snack street, you can go home and rest at any time when you are tired. I will choose here next time I come to play."

"To be honest, this is the first time I have taken the initiative to write such a long evaluation, but as the first guest of Lanting Hot Spring B&B, there is really much to say about the experience. The following is my most true evaluation of feelings, it is never to delay 😂 On the evening of the 19th, I flew to Datong from Hangzhou. Because the plane was late, it was almost 12 o'clock in the middle of the night. I called the proprietress in advance and told the proprietress that the flight was late and needed to arrive late. The proprietress had been waiting for us at the hotel. Because the kitchen had not prepared meals after the opening, she specially asked someone to cook a bowl of hot instant noodles. Late at night a bowl of hot soup, the stomach warmed, the heart is also practical, that simple care than any welcome ceremony is real. It’s really not easy to take a taxi here. I have to do something the next day. The proprietress specially asked someone to drive us there. The red envelope was also confiscated. , I feel really embarrassed Focus on the weather in Datong. I came from Hangzhou. Hangzhou was really stuffy and hot in July. The body temperature felt fast at 40 degrees, and the body was always sticky. But as soon as I arrived in Datong on the evening of July 19, there was a dry cool breeze out of the airport, and I felt that the whole person was comfortable. At night, there was no window in the room, the wind wrapped in dry air and gently blown in, the cover was just right, and the air conditioner was not needed at all. I slept until dawn. In the morning, the skin is refreshing, and the hair is not as easy to oil as in Hangzhou. This dry summer night is really enjoyable for southerners. Let's talk about the room. The first feeling of pushing the door in is spacious, clean and comfortable. The overall decoration is the kind of simple log wind, the wall is warm white artistic paint, the floor is covered with light-colored wood brick, and it is not cold to step on barefoot. There are not many furniture, but everything is very textured - a big bed facing the floor-to-ceiling window, a rattan-made recliner by the window, a small coffee table next to it, a kettle and cups are placed in wooden trays, neat and neat. What surprised me most was that when the curtains were opened, I could see the quiet street view and the distant mountain shadow. The light came in during the day, and the whole room was warm. The bedding is made of cotton and hemp, it is very comfortable to sleep close to the body, the pillow is just soft and hard, it is also considered that I have stayed in so many hotels, and the experience is ranked in the top 10 😂 What I want to boast about most is the private soup in the room. The soup pool is embedded in a corner of the window. It is not big, just enough for two people to soak in side by side. When the water vapor is steaming, it has a special atmosphere. The boss was very sincere and told me directly that this was a real hot spring from the underground. A few kilometers next to it was a volcanic group. The water temperature was about 35 degrees, not hot or cold, and the whole person was loose from the shoulder to the sole of his feet when he soaked in. I soaked for about half an hour, and I could obviously feel that my skin was slippery. I was tired during the day and was soaked in hot water. The boss said that the water contained sulfur and metasilicate. After the soak, it was really transparent and I slept very heavily at night. And when you soak in the soup, you don't have to go out of the room, wear a bathrobe and walk two steps to get into the water, how long you want to soak for, this privacy and convenience is incomparable to the hotel's public pool. The decoration style of the whole homestay is also very unified. From the lobby to the corridor to the room, it is the kind of clean log with warm light, no fancy decoration, but every corner makes people feel comfortable and relaxed. The proprietress said that the design was her own eye, and it could be seen that it did take a lot of thought. The next morning, the proprietress came to ask if she slept well, talked a few words, and stuffed a small gift when she checked out. As the first guest, I was really a little drummed at first, but I found that the bedding was comfortable, hot water was sufficient, and soundproofed. I used my heart everywhere. If you are tired of the sticky summer in the south, want to find a quiet place to blow the dry wind, soak in real hot springs, it is worth a visit here. I am not dragging, this is the real feeling of the day from the 19th to the 20th. I wish the new store is getting better and better, I must try the dinner next time, hahahahaha"

"The room was incredibly spacious, and the bathroom design was exceptionally convenient. The shower and toilet had a wooden door, and the sink was located outside with a small vanity mirror, making it very easy for everyone to use. The hotel is also very close to Daiwang Mansion, with many great restaurants nearby. The freshly prepared breakfast each morning was delicious. If we didn't go out in the afternoons, afternoon tea was provided. The environment was wonderful and very quiet. The service was outstanding, especially the front desk staff. The ladies and gentlemen at the front desk were all incredibly kind. Whenever we passed by, they would greet us. They were also very thoughtful, recommending local supermarkets and explaining everything in great detail. We really enjoyed the tea at afternoon tea, so we asked the front desk lady for a link to buy it. She was so nice and even gave us some, and then sent us the link the day after we checked out. They were truly incredibly attentive. When we first arrived, we were a bit early. The front desk gentleman greeted us at the entrance and directed us to parking, even sending us a video of the location. Once our room was ready, he also helped us bring up our luggage."

"This was my first visit to Xinzhou, and after extensive searching on the platform, I chose this guesthouse. It was incredibly clean, and the hot springs were fantastic. The owner is super friendly, and the service here is excellent, including complimentary shuttle service to the ancient city. The iron flower show is an absolute must-see – totally worth it! I highly recommend everyone come and experience it. Taking the kids to the hot springs was pure joy for them! Wishing the owner a prosperous business!"
