This is my second time in this hotel and I have found that the staffs are very helpful. There was a mistake in my initial bookings (2 rooms) and it was settled very promptly by the assistant manager. A few quirks 1) Arrangements for transport were very prompt but the prices are a little high. 2) I wanted to print... more

I am an American Chinese and speaks the local dialect. This hotel has the best location in town. I was returning to the hotel after a quick snack and was holding a half finished can of soda. The doorman stopped me from entering because food/drink is not allowed in the lobby, That's fair enough, so I stepped aside and wanted... more

The hotel is located in the old part of town. Great for tourists but may be not for business. Its located in the south west of town which has alot of character. Right next to the famous heritage street. The hotel location is far from Guangzhou East Station (trains to HK) and canton fair ground. The traffic is so bad... more

I have been staying at this hotel for at least 40 nights a year for the past 3 years and always love this hotel and thought of it as my home away from home. Sadly, since earlier this year, this hotel has signed a contract with the world's leading courier company and now all their transiting U.S. pilots and cargo... more

Really pleasantly suprised with the hotel - located in the throbbing heart of Guangzhou, check in was easy and professional, room was huge, clean and well appointed. Staff all spoke good english and helpful without being overbearing. Only criticism is room service food, quality and taste was poor - other than that a really great mid level hotel! more

I enjoyed this hotel and the prices are good, especially out of Canton Fair times. My room was very spacious and clean. I didn't eat there. The location: The hotel is right on a famous pedestrian street that you'll probably visit anyway - it's a part of town packed with bargain shops, restaurants and bustling people. It is in what... more

I stayed for one night in mid September 2009, as my flight landed in Guangzhou in the early morning and I was enroute to Shenzhen the following afternoon. This is a truly outstanding hotel, particularly for the price. I booked the Deluxe Room, which at the time cost $65.48 US advance purchase through booking.com. The room was very large, containing... more

i just finished staying at the holiday inn shifu in guangzhou, china and had a wonderful experience. i had stayed there previously in may '08 and remembered that it was a top-notch hotel then and even though it's listed as (only) a 3-star establishment (out of a possible 5), i would give this place at least a 4-star rating... first... more

Stayed in this hotel for 3 nights in early August 2009. We love every minute of it. Is very convenient, right in the middle of the most busy shopping street and with several famous Cantonese restaurants less than 5 minutes walk away. The hotel breakfast is 88 RMB per person and is a disappointment. We only took the hotel breakfast... more
