Too pity not be able to attach pictures here. We had a wonderful room with large bed, the staff are trained to deal with foreigners and they do it in a quite smart way- even they often forget parts of the restaurant order... The rooms in the yard are quiet- we have been afraid of the noise, because of the location in the middle of main walking street. But we have been surprised. And they have a well-working heating system, also in the restaurant (means not typical Chinese). I can imagine going there again in winter to work in a peaceful atmosphere of an historic place.

用户ni****对平遥天元奎客栈点评
If you visit Pingyao for traveling to the ancient city, it will be great if you complete it by stay in the ancient city. This hotel located in the middle of the ancient city. This hotel''s employees are very kind always smile. The hotel quiet clean even Pingyao it self quiet dusty and the air quality not good (smoggy).This guest house still need additional amenities to make it more standard like paper for face (not just toilet paper), some hooks for the room as well as in the bath room. They also need to improve their water supply (the flow of the shower too slow) and the quality of water (in the morning quiet often the water become reddish). Supply compliment bottled drinking water should be as per day stay not just on check in day.Their Chinese menu (Pingyao''s local foods) just so-so (just noticed why in every dishes they fried with flours ?), for western breakfast quiet good. Price not cheap but since Pingyao it self is very commercial so can acceptable. So just enjoy it.
