JING’S RESIDENCE, PINGYAO

JING’S RESIDENCE

STYLISH HOTEL

Inside, your private pavilion has a contemporary twist. Outside, it is part of the 260 year old courtyard mansion of a former silk merchant.

The unique setting of the fortified citadel of Pingyao – now a UNESCO World Heritage Site – is the perfect way to come face-to-face with the ancient Chinese world of dragons and pagodas, emperors and fabulously wealthy silk merchants.

You’ll also find the modern world has plenty to offer. Quaint alleyways crammed with fascinating shops, tempting restaurants and Jing’s Residence – a boutique hotel with stylish, individual pavilions gathered around traditional courtyards. Expect bamboo landscaping, tranquil water features, white stonework and brick-paved walkways linking courtyard to courtyard. And superb restaurant to cosy library and welcoming bar.

“EXCELLENT SAFARI IN REMOTE ZAMBIA”

We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.
