Dining Above the City: Where Shanxi Flavors Meet Sky-High Comfort
In the ancient capital of Datong, Shanxi, food is more than sustenance—it is a language of history, culture, and hospitality. At the Jianguo HIDDEN Hotel Flagship Store (Datong High-Speed Railway Station Wanda Plaza), we believe your culinary journey should be as elevated as your accommodation. Perched on the 15th to 21st Floors at the Northwest Corner of the Intersection of Xingping Street and Hengyuan Road, Pingcheng District, our dining experience is designed to offer a unique blend of authentic regional flavors, international standards, and the convenience of modern urban living.
Whether you are starting your day with a traditional Shanxi breakfast before heading to the Yungang Grottoes, enjoying a private in-room meal after a long business meeting, or exploring the vast culinary hub of Wanda Plaza below, the Jianguo HIDDEN Hotel ensures every bite fuels your journey with flavor, freshness, and care.
The Morning Ritual: An Authentic Shanxi Breakfast Buffet
For many travelers, the breakfast table is the first true introduction to a destination. At Jianguo HIDDEN Hotel, our breakfast service is a celebrated highlight, consistently receiving high praise from guests for its variety and authenticity. Served daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, our buffet is curated to cater to both the adventurous foodie and the comfort-seeking traveler.
A Taste of Local Heritage
We take pride in showcasing the rich culinary traditions of Shanxi Province, known as the home of Chinese vinegar and noodles. Our morning spread features iconic local delicacies that allow you to experience Datong’s culture without leaving the hotel:
- Hand-Pulled Knife-Cut Noodles (Dao Xiao Mian): Prepared fresh, these chewy, savory noodles are a Datong signature, often served in a rich broth or with traditional sauces.
- Lamb Offal Soup: A warming, hearty local favorite perfect for energizing before a day of exploration in Northern China’s cooler climate.
- Shaomai Dumplings: Steamed to perfection, these delicate dumplings offer a taste of regional craftsmanship.
- Shanxi Vinegar Delicacies: Experience the famous aged vinegar that defines the province’s cuisine, paired with pickles and cold dishes.
International Favorites for Global Travelers
Understanding our diverse guest demographic, including business travelers from Beijing, Taiyuan, and international locations, we also provide a robust selection of Western and international options. Expect freshly baked pastries, made-to-order egg stations, crisp salads, fresh fruits, yogurt, cereals, and premium coffee and tea blends. This dual approach ensures that every guest, regardless of palate, begins their day satisfied.
In-Room Dining: The “HIDDEN” Private Experience
True to our brand philosophy of privacy and tranquility, the Jianguo HIDDEN Hotel offers comprehensive in-room dining services. There are moments when the best meal is one enjoyed in solitude, perhaps while overlooking the panoramic skyline of Pingcheng District from the 20th floor, or when work deadlines require you to stay in.
Our in-room menu is designed for convenience without compromising quality. From light snacks and premium beverages to full meals, our kitchen team ensures that food arrives hot, fresh, and beautifully presented. Complimentary bottled water, fruits, coffee, and tea are refreshed daily, adding a touch of luxury to your private sanctuary. For those late-night arrivals after a train journey from the Datong High-Speed Railway Station, our evening supper offerings provide a comforting welcome when other restaurants may be closed.
Wanda Plaza Integration: A World of Flavor at Your Doorstep
One of the distinct advantages of staying at the Jianguo HIDDEN Hotel Flagship Store is our seamless integration with the Wanda Plaza complex. While our internal dining focuses on boutique quality and breakfast excellence, our location grants you immediate access to one of Datong’s premier culinary destinations.
Located directly within the building complex, Wanda Plaza hosts a myriad of renowned restaurants, cafes, and food courts. This unique setup offers our guests the best of both worlds:
- Variety: Choose from hot pot, BBQ, international chains, local eateries, and dessert shops just an elevator ride away.
- Convenience: No need for taxis or long walks; dining options are vertically connected to your room.
- Entertainment: Combine your dining experience with shopping or cinema visits within the same complex.
This synergy makes the hotel an ideal base for foodies who wish to explore Datong’s broader culinary scene while maintaining the security and comfort of their accommodation.
