“good hotel in quite area”
This is an excellent hotel with good facilities and good service in a quite, historic area (Shamian Island), away from the hustle and bustle of Guangzhou.
“Watch your credit cards”
1. Don't select any room higher than the lowest priced category, you'll get the same regular room in the end. I have stayed in this hotel five times and it doesn't matter what I had selected : "Superior" or "Business" , I always end up with the lowest category room, so why waste the extra few dollars!! 2. Make sure the receptionist(s) return the "guarantee" credit card slip that they used to hold funds, even then my credit card was mysteriously charged HK$ 5,084 by an entity (not this hotel) after I checked out., 25th November 2011. I have not used my credit card during the entire trip except at this hotel.
“excellent hotel”
Great location on Shamian island, good room, good price, good buffet, hair dryer in room, very clean, friendly people at the desk, Rebecca got me the car the driver I needed for a special trip. Great place to stay!
“A good hotel but need improvement”
The hotel is in a good location and a good neighborhood. We have stayed in this hotel in the past 10 years when we traveled to Guangzhou. However, we had a bad experience this time when we stayed in the hotel. First, we paid for a non-smoking room and was told the room was a non-smoking room from Expedia. But we arrived in the hotel and got to our room, the smoking smell was so strong we could not stand it. Then we were told that they would do some treatment to make the room as a non-smoke room. Since the room is small, we did not believe the room would be okay since we are very sensitive to smoking smells. Then we were told that the only non-smoking rooms are available in the executive class and some business class rooms. So we had to pay more to upgrade to a non-smoking executive room. The staff of the hotel did tried to help us, but we did not understand why our reservation did not tell us the truth. We hope this is not a way to lure the customers as a way of business practice.
“stuff is very kind, helpfull”
enjoyed staying there, if ı come back to guanzhou, ı would stay the same hotel
“My home hotel when I visit Guangzhou each time-excellent, safe and comfortable”
Guangdong Victory Hotel is an excellent place while people traveling in Guangzhou, nice and convienient location, great customer service, remodeled nice room with safe. So I will always book this hotel for my trip to Guangzhou each time. I just stayed there in August, 2011. I will visit again next Spring.
“Impressive Value and Great Service Staff”
Hotel is very good. For the price it is a great value. Located on Sha Main Island gives it an uncrowded (rare) locale from which to base and see the city. It is less than 1/2 mile from the Line 1 HongSha Metro stop which gives great access to explore Guangzhou. Although plentiful and cheap metered cabs are available to go from place to place. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Language is a slight problem, but patience on your part usually gets someone with enough English skills to communicate and get what you needed done. Staff was also very helpful with non-hotel recommendations (where and how to get a sim card for your cell phone, best bank to exchange for RMB). Wifi exists, but is iffy on floors 3 and above. It is slow, but it was slow everywhere else I visited in China, even Hong Kong.
“nice and peaceful neighborhood”
a nice hotel located on a peaceful island in the center of Guangdzhou
“Good but not great”
Great safe & quiet location. Unfortunately the hotel is pricey and the bathrooms are not very clean. Overall not a bad choice.
“pleasant surprise”
stayed at guangdong victory hotel because of its reputation among adoption travelers - had heard it was less expensive and more spacious than the white swan - had heard mixed reviews about its breakfast buffet, however - the buffet turned out to be wonderful, a nice blend of western and asian offerings - the room we upgraded to (original standard sized room was simply too small) was perfect, modern, fashionable and clean - service was great - we were thrilled with our choice
