Hyatt Place Taiyuan Longcheng

Hyatt Place Taiyuan Longcheng is a modern select-service hotel at 77 Huangling Road in the Longcheng area of Xiaodian District, Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi province, China. Longcheng is a contemporary business and residential quarter in the south-east of the city, with office towers, shopping centres and wide avenues, and the hotel sits among the area's commercial buildings. The old centre around Liuxiang and Yingze Street is a taxi ride away, and the area has good road links to expressways and the rail stations for onward trips. Hyatt Place is a brand designed around casual, bright public spaces and flexible dining, and the hotel follows this model with an open lobby that combines reception, lounge and dining areas, and a modern, uncluttered design rather than formal luxury. Rooms are offered in Standard, Deluxe and Suite categories, with Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a 24-hour front desk, and are typically designed with work desks and comfortable bedding suited to both business and leisure travellers. Dining generally centres on an all-day restaurant or grab-and-go counter serving breakfast with Chinese and international options and lighter dishes through the day. A fitness centre is generally provided in this brand, and guests should confirm other facilities with the hotel. Rates generally run from about CNY 400 to 600 (roughly US$55-85), appealing value for a global-brand hotel in a new district. Service is relaxed and efficient, appropriate for solo business travellers and couples. It is a good choice for visitors who value modern design and simple, efficient service in the Longcheng area at a moderate price.
