Price is average. Service is average. Location average. Room is average. The hotel was located in Tianhe area which is the most expensive area in guanzhou. altothe hotel a bit old but still quite comfortable. Overall it was still a nice hotel to stay.

Stayed here on business for 4 nights in Oct 2017. As other reviewers have mentioned, this was probably a high class hotel 30 years or so ago but is now a little old and tired, and in need of modernisation. On the positive side staff are very helpful even though many of them don’t speak much English. Rooms are a good size and the bathrooms are better than many similar hotels (excellent shower). The location is excellent for shopping and restaurants, and was very close to my meeting locations. However, there are a few too many negatives for me here. Firstly the bed was extremely hard - the hardest I’ve ever come across in all my years of travelling. I didn’t sleep comfortably for my entire stay. At weekends the ‘club’ on the third floor is quite loud and music continues until 2am - I could hear it quite clearly on the 6th floor. I was also quite disappointed in the breakfast which was poor with little choice of food compared western hotel chains. The breakfast room is ultra-modern and does not fit in with the rest of the hotel strangely! Overall this hotel caters mainly to Chinese businesspeople on a budget. I would stay at the Marriott or Sheraton in future which are very close by, but for budget-conscious business travellers it’s worth a look.
