Though this hotel has low review here, when it comes to hotels.com I saw positive reviews. Stayed for 6N for the Canton Fair, even if they speak limited English they tried their best to communicate and know your needs.
During Canton Fair: They have scheduled shuttle service, 3 in the morning, 2 trips going back to the hotel. We appreciate that they provided bottled water and some biscuits while alighting the bus going back to the hotel. And we get back to the hotel they prepared fruit snacks.
Room: were well maintained, even if its a non-smoking room, since you’re in China (which everyone smokes) expect the smell, but i brought with me my diffuser, which helped a lot. Bathroom doesn’t have bidet, it has rainfall shower head and hand held shower.
Bed: very comfortable with goose feather pillows and a duvet
Transportation: convenient to get a taxi, if you’re having a hard time ask front desk to help you with their ride-sharing app (they have their own version of uber)
Surrounding Community: i suggest exploring the area as there’s a lot of local stores and business for food, don’t just eat inside the hotel, explore the community. It’s safe but still take precaution.
Tip: Since most locals doesn’t speak English, its better to know words in mandarin like: Cold water, Rice, Noodles, Beef, Pork, Fish, Vegetables. And if you’re going around the taxi, better have a screenshot of the chinese characters of the area and the address. You may download “Baidu Map” it’s their version of waze / google maps
