We had an amazing time at Elsewhere Hotel. The hotel is located in the old city centre of Pingyao, and it is an old building in Chinese style. When we arrived, we had a warm welcome with a cup of tea. The staff is really friendly, and they speak English very well. I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a hotel with greater hospitality! The staff helped us with tickets for several attractions in the old city. We really recommend to stay at this hotel!

I really made the right choice with this homestay in Pingyao! The location is absolutely a hidden gem—just a two-minute walk gets you to Rishengchang Bank, so there’s no need to get up early to soak in the Jin merchant culture. It’s super convenient to head back for a break after visiting the attractions. What’s more, the surrounding area is bustling with life. When you stroll out in the evening, the lanterns light up, and old shops and street food stalls are right in front of you, full of that lively, authentic vibe. No need to hunt for places to eat; just step into any spot, and it’s sure to be delicious. The biggest surprise, though, is the service here—they truly take care of every little detail. When I checked in, the owner warmly introduced local attractions, even telling me which shop has the most authentic Pingyao beef and the best time to visit Rishengchang to avoid crowds. That kind of thoughtful care makes the whole trip feel so warm. I’ll definitely stay here again when I come back to Pingyao. Great location, amazing atmosphere, and service that’s second to none—highly recommended!

This hotel is located in the very center of the city, so it is extremely convenient in order to fully enjoy the city by walk. At the same time, the bedrooms are well inside and away from the main street so that one can enjoy a perfectly noiseless night of sleep. Most importantly, the whole staff and especially the onwer are EXTREMELY kind, trustworthy and helpful: they even helped us shipping a bulky shopping item we bought in Pingyao to Italy. Absolutely recommended to any traveller and will 100% come back here next time I will visit Pingyao.

We had a truly enjoyable experience at this hotel. The property is new, beautifully designed, and tastefully decorated — every detail reflects a refined sense of style. Despite being in a different country, we immediately felt at home thanks to the warm and thoughtful atmosphere. One of the highlights was the excellent breakfast, freshly prepared on the spot every morning — a rare treat that made a real difference. The hotel is located in the northern part of the city, which is ideal for visiting Pingyao and exploring the area comfortably. A special mention goes to the hotel manager, who welcomed us with delicious local snacks waiting in our room — a kind gesture that added a personal touch to our stay. In short, everything exceeded expectations. If you’re planning a visit to this area, this hotel is an excellent choice. Super recommended

The staffs were absolutely amazing. One of the best services I have seen so far. The hotel offers free minibar for guests and breakfast is on ala carte basis and food quality is top notch. The hotel is located in ancient Pingyao city (no car zone). Taxi would have to drop guests off at main road which is few minutes walk to the hotel. I would recommend guests to take up pick up and drop off services offered by the hotel as all streets in Pingyao looks the same (like maze) and it's relatively easy to get lost while trying to find the hotel on your own.

An unforgettable lodging experience! This hostel mesmerized us with its well-preserved historical courtyard, making us feel as if we were living in a museum, steeped in charm and history. We had the pleasure of staying in both the room in the main courtyard and the Yaodong room. Each room was spacious, featuring super large, comfortable beds that ensured a restful night's sleep. The cleanliness and service at the hostel were impeccable. Every area was maintained spotlessly. The staff were warm and always eager to assist, making us feel truly welcomed. I highly recommend this hostel, particularly in the winter. Its perfect blend of historical elegance, modern comfort, and the added beauty of snow make it an unparalleled choice. Looking forward to my next visit!
