PingYao is a beautiful walled city and the Jing's Residence is among the best hotels within the walls. It is reconstructed from an old private residence with about 16 rooms each surrounding one of two courtyards. The rooms are beautiful and modern with low beds and updated plumbing. The public rooms are beautiful and an enjoyable place to start or... More

We stayed here 12th and 13th May 2013. We have stayed in dozens of Relais and Chateaux hotels over many years and this compare with the best. The accommodation and food are first rate. The chef is excellent and the service very good.This is a relatively small boutique hotel . The attraction here is the old fortified city of Pingyao... More

When you're heading to Pingyao- the world heritage city -, Jing's Residence is the place to stay;for overnight or like me, 3 nights to escape the Chinese urban scene - Beijing, Taiyuan or any nearby cities, whilst getting a dose of old culture. It delivers - tastefully restored old courtyard with modern but subdued amenities; unhurried serenity and absolutely attentive... More

Ping Yao is a unique experience in China, not to be missed. It is unbelievable that this old city will remain untouched by the same 'Sino-soviet' development so rampant across this huge country. And there is just no other way to experience it than to stay at Jings. These courtyard houses are typical of Ping Yao and have been adapted... More

We have stayed two nights at Jing"s Residence at the end of Feburary and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The hotel is in a very nice old house with beautiful roof and court yard. It is totally refurbished with modern comfort but preserving all charms of an old house. We enjoy lingering around the fire place in the lobby or... More

My girlfriend and I had a great long weekend at Jing's Residence. The room was beautiful and spacious, the food was outstanding and the atmosphere was very relaxing. Definitely get the massage and cooking lessons!

A superbly refurbished old property, with equally praiseworthy service from the manager, Imam, and his staff. Although centrally located, it's an oasis of peace and quiet, and therefore easy to relax in after a day's sightseeing. Start the day with an excellent breakfast in the restaurant overlooking the street, as Pingyao comes to life, and close it with a glass... More

We stayed here for two nights at the tail end of Chinese New Year in 2013. We were picked up at the airport by a member of the staff who gave us hot tea, snacks and moist towels and the quality of service just got better from there. The manager, Mr. Imam, was an extremely gracious and helpful host. The... More

Imam and the staff made us feel at home throughout our stay. The service was impeccable, something that's not exactly easy to find in China. We loved the setting too - it's in a beautiful courtyard house with modern touches. A great experience and a nice finish to our trip to Pingyao. Highly recommended.
