太原富力铂尔曼大酒店
An indoor pool at the R&F Plaza business junction
About this hotel
太原富力铂尔曼大酒店 positions its indoor pool at one of Taiyuan's busiest commercial junctions, close to R&F Plaza and R&F Centre, which makes it a practical stay for anyone whose trip runs through that side of the city rather than the Coal Trading Center further out. Rooms are well-appointed with air conditioning, a minibar, seating area and city views, and the dining area includes an electric kettle alongside the usual private bathroom with a bath and hairdryer. Vast event space sets it apart from the smaller business hotels nearby, useful for guests attending a conference rather than a small meeting. A fitness centre, ticket service, tour desk and luggage storage cover the practical side, and the hotel notes it is actively reducing its reliance on single-use plastics, a sustainability detail not mentioned at other Taiyuan pool hotels. Taiyuan Zoo is a 10-minute drive away and Taiyuan Forest Garden 15 minutes.
- Indoor pool near R&F Plaza
- Vast event space
- Fitness centre and tour desk
Our take
This suits guests attending events or conferences near R&F Plaza who want an indoor pool without travelling out to the Coal Trading Center cluster. The vast event space is the standout feature here, more suited to groups than solo business travellers. Anyone wanting a spa centre alongside the pool should book Kempinski or Sheraton instead, since the pool here stands largely on its own without an attached wellness floor.
- ✓Book well ahead if travelling for an event, the vast event space draws conference groups that fill nearby rooms fast.
- ✓Ask the tour desk about Taiyuan Zoo, it is a straightforward 10-minute drive and easy to fit into a free afternoon.
- ✓Request a city-view room specifically, not every category includes the view as standard.
Why we love it
- Indoor pool near the R&F Plaza junction
- Vast event space for conferences and groups
- City-view rooms with a proper seating area
- A stated effort to cut single-use plastics
Why guests love itOur conference filled most of the vast event space here, and the indoor pool was a welcome way to close out two full days of sessions rather than heading back to a plain hotel room. The city view from our room looked straight out over the R&F Plaza junction, which some might find busy but I liked having the activity below. The tour desk arranged a quick trip to Taiyuan Zoo on our one free morning without any trouble.
