Hotel Canton

Hidden Gem

I was extremely happy with the hotel, from the beginning I felt right at home. I currently live and work in Guangzhou, and I wanted to get away from my apartment when my girlfriend came here. The hotel staff is fantastic-many of them speak great english, and will go out of there way to understand you if you speak a little mandarin or cantonese. The Hotel is fabulous, the rooms are comfortable, the staff is very helpful, and the location is unbeatable. From the main entrance of the hotel, you can see down Beijing Street-one of the oldest streets in china. The hotel is only 7 minutes from the metro stop and you are a quick trip to any of Guangzhou’s many hotspots. This hotel was well worth the money and more! Exceeds my expectations.

Better than I thought

Pros: 1. Hotel is at the northern end of Beijing Rd. So it’s a good tourist location. 2. My room had wooden floors, which I liked. 3. Has buses to the Canton Fair 4. For the price I got, it was worth it. It was almost half the price of other comparable hotels. 5. quiet. 6. Free internet connection was fast. Cons: 1. Hard to get a taxi. 2. The desk in my room was small and hard to do some work. 3. The buses to the Fair only ran from 8am to 9:30am. Other hotels that I’ve stayed at had more buses running. 4. The typical hotel buffet breakfast was expensive and subpar compared to other hotels. 5. The hotel staff’s english skills weren’t that good. 6. The room had I was clean but the bed sheets and couch seemed a little worn down. 7. Had only 1 english channel on the television.

Hotel breakfast sucked. I think it was better to just walk down to the McDonalds.

Business Travel

The hotel was located within 5 blocks of a major shopping district and more importantly western style food.(McDonalds, KFC, etc.) The rooms are clean and although the staff tried to be helpful expect a language barrier, there was very few English speaking staff members. An example was the laundry service, they offered a great in house laundry service without a way to communicate a price or delivery day. Except for the shopping district the hotel was not located near any upscale restaurants or entertainment. Except to take a taxi to any of these places. The only two complaints were the air conditioning and mattresses. The staff turned the air conditioning off when they cleaned the room resulting in a long period of time to cool the room back down. The mattresses could have been a piece of plywood with a sheet over it. In all fairness I found this to be the norm in hotels in Honk Kong, Macai and Tapai. Overall I would recommend the hotel based on the price.
