Jing's Residence, Pingyao Rooms Description:

The 19 meticulously renovated bedrooms and suites reflect the unique character of the residence. Natural materials create a sophisticated yet relaxing environment. Decorative features range from ancient carved wooden window frames and timber structural elements to bamboo flooring and rice paper ceilings. Many touches pay tribute to local culture and traditional handicrafts: bed heads are made of lacquer or silk; beds provide modern comfort but they recall the design of the age-old kang; decorative ceramic panels are reminiscent of the shape of coal briquettes and antique Chinese wash-basin stands are completely at home in the luxuriously fitted bathrooms. Modern functional features are subtly incorporated in the rooms such as Internet access, flat screen TV and individual bedside reading lights. This enables guests to enjoy an international standard of modern luxury and convenience that goes far beyond the usual " local" hotel environment. Yet at the same time the hotel conveys the sense of being immersed in a historic environment.Two large suites are located at the back of the residence in accordance with the tradition of locating the most prestigious rooms in the more secluded rear buildings. The 70-square meter suites are on the second level and they benefit from a unique bird' s-eyes view over Pingyao' s rooftops. Privileged guests can even enjoy this unique view from the bathtub that is strategically placed in the middle of the open-spaced suite and forms an integral part of the striking design.
