I agree with Kittyhead, the main interest is: It's close to Tienanmen Square & the Forbidden City. My opinion about this hotel is a bit so-so, it's a good hotel, lot of services, nothing really bad but it could be more confortable and clean. People are nice, nothing to say about that. We were unlucky because first night was very... More

There is a 24 hours McDonalds right... More

Buffet breakfasts were a great start to the days sight seeing. Not everyone spoke English but there was always someone who could - staff... More

I stayed at the Guangzhou during March as part of a tour of China. First of all, anywhere you travel within China you will experience language difficulties if you don't speak Chinese! We had a tour guide and friends in Beijing who helped us out enormously with translations. Some of the reception staff at the Guangzhou did not speak much... More
