The 10 best hotels in Guangzhou, China

August 13, 2022 Flossie Demartino

China’s third-largest city is the capital of Guangdong Province and a thriving commercial center. Its location on the Pearl River and proximity to Hong Kong has made Guangzhou a strategic port for centuries. Glimpse old temples and gleaming steel towers on an architectural tour. Visit one of four Chimelong theme parks for thrills and chills. Once called Canton, Guangzhou is considered the home of traditional (read Cantonese) “Chinese food.” Foodies will find more restaurants per capita here than anywhere else in China.

It's high time to resume breakfast at the executive lounge

Reviewed By HYSZ2020

The breakfast at lounge has been closed for a period of time already in view of the impact of COVID, as a diamond ACCOR member and a loyal guest of this hotel, I totally understand the situation and I feel ok to have breakfast at 2/F temporarily. However, the COVID has been quite under control in GZ these few weeks and you can see the business of the hotel is coming back gradually. You can't even find seats for breakfast during Thursday and Friday when those group of people finished the morning meeting and coming to breakfast......not to mention the Dragon Boat holiday recently. Having breakfast peacefully and comfortably at lounge is quite crucial for me indeed and it's high time we resumed the breakfast at lounge.

great hotel and staff

Reviewed By ceeleedh

I have been to probably too many Hotel Executive Lounges either in China or different parts of Asia. Seriously speaking, not many of them could trigger the home-ing feeling but Westin Pazhou is top of them. In the sense of breakfast and happy hours, well, I would not say they offer you the top notch but I am talking about the home-ing feeling. Westin Pazhou has never let me down. They know what I need, what I prefer, I guess not many of us could even get such feeling at our own home. Hah hah... Their teams have been excellent and they serve you with personal touch, not the kind of great 'cold' service with distance but the warm service like your good friends or family members. I must mention their PM shift leader Lyn has been the most experienced and impressive lounge staff I have ever met. No doubt, superior!

All fine other than slow WIFI

Stayed there while I was in Guangzhou for a quick business trip. Everything was quite OK and they also have a decent Gym and lounge. Staff were very helpful and attentive and breakfast was not too bad as well. As a the highest IHG number, you did get the recognitions in this hotel However the slow WIFI is the killer which may prevent me from staying there again.
