Never stay here please.
Stay was horrible, nobody knows English. You ask for something at reception some stupid girls there always laughing.if you have any problems in the room you cannot make room service understand your concern. Horrible stay experience, will never recommend anyone to stay here.

it's really horrible experience
the room is dirty and smelly. it has a strong smell of cigarette in non smoking room. the toilet is unreasonably small that you will definitely hit the toilet bowl when you close the door. the shower head does not work. the bed is hard as rock and also has a strong smell of cigarette. I will never stay in this hotel. I don't think it worth a four star ranking, even not worth a two star ranking.

No hot water on upper floors
I was given a room on 19th floor, which does not have hot water. Upon asking about it with the unfriendly staff, I was told that I needed to have the water running for over an hour in order for the hot water to pump up to the 19th floor.

Don't expect much if you are foreigner...
Staff don't speak English,,mattress hard rock, linen will not be changed until you are prepared to flight. Breakfast same everyday stale and cold, I would suggest to avoid. Only plus side of this hotel is price and half decent location.

Don't book this MOTEL.
The space of bathroom is too small , the air conditioner didn't work properly. The room is old and not quite clean. Don't know who gave this hotel 4 stars... probably is 3 stars at the best.

The worst 4 star hotel I have ever seen
First of all, the address that is posted on the hotels website is not where it really is, it's actually a mile away... Then, before you check in, make sure that you speak Chinese because no one of the attendants in the front desk seems to speak basic English, the communication is almost Impossible!!!! The mattraces are hard as a rock, it tuke me hours till I was able to take a nap... There is a weird smell in this hotel, it is chasing you for days after it... I can't say anything about the food since I was so discussed by the uncleanliness of the staff that I haven't tried their food! Also, in my room the safe didn't work in the first two days of my stay, I would simply say that this is not a 4 star hotel under any circumstances!!!! There are many more hotels in this area that are ten times better...

The hotel meet the basic necessities and was conveniently situated to shopping complex, metro and other services. The price was affordable and refelct the quality of the hotel. There is room to improve the general standard further such as better option for breakfast as it was predominantly chinese style, and also service in the reception need to be more customer's friendly and process of checking in and out needs to speed up!!!

Chilly in Guangzhou
Overall the hotel was ok but we stayed in January and there was no heat. Granted, it was 40 degrees outside and the trees were green but I expect it to be warmer than 40 degrees INSIDE my hotel room. We used the hair dryer to heat the bathroom before taking a shower. (you got hot water if you ran the shower/sink for about 20-30 minutes.) Breakfast was a normal Asian breakfast; boiled eggs, green vegatables various breads/biscuits, coffee one day, no coffee the next. Hotel did have AC so it could be acceptable during a different time of year but I won't be back.

This is not the type for western travelers, hotel smells bad, lousy bathroom, poor facility, breakfast is cold, never change the menu, no service. I am glad I can speak mandarin otherwise it is very difficult to communicate with the counter staff. One and only one good thing is the location, it is near the subway, save a lot of money for taxi.

Simple hotel, quite an old one. I think that 4 stars is too much for this hotel - 3 is more certain measure. Quite a good location, near subway station. No wifi - only ethernet connection. If you are searching for modern and comfortable hotel - try to choose another one. If you prefer economy - this hotel is for you.

Worst 4 Star I've stayed
Due to a trade conference, I had a hard time getting a hotel room in Guangzhou. This is definitely worst 4 star hotel I've ever stayed in China. Tiny tub, no refridge in the room (which is pretty standard in most hotels). the hotel charges 10 RMB for a bottle of drinking water, most 4 star hotels give 2 free bottles of drinking water a day. I would rather book a hotel near the airport next time.

There are else hotels with same price but better service
First of all, the location of hotel is problem to me. when i arrived to the station of the air port bus near to garden hotel i could not find any taxi who will drop me there. I wonder why the taxi would not stop it is rare. and i walk all the way by my laguage to the hotel. second, The rooms are lack of maintenance. Our bathroom has water leak in the first day.

本以此房價已不求有甚麽享受,惟酒店員工質素實在不濟,没有基本常識,笑容欠奉,態度極差,check in 時差點取不到房(話没有訂房記錄,不識有"hotel.com"此網站)。酒店空有國際之名,實百分百舊式國內模式; 房未清潔好上手客人污物便給客人入住,曱甴在房內巡游,消滅後到退房日也未見清理(住了三晚)。一字記之曰 - 差!

値段なりのホテル
インターネット・朝食込の条件を購入しました。 広州滞在の際にはHoliday Innを常宿としていたのですが、今回は、Holiday Innが改装中(別チェーン名にて近日再開とのこと)で住所の近い本ホテルに宿泊しました。部屋のセーフティボックスが壊れていたり、すべての時計の時間がとんでもない時間になっていたのは予想の範囲ですが、フロントのスタッフは何かにつけて処理が遅くストレスがたまりました。ネットのスピードは大容量のデータ通信には向いていません。前述の内容が笑い飛ばせるような度量が有り、かつ海外旅行の経験値が高い方以外はお勧めしません。

最悪なホテルです。
今まで過去3年以上に渡り、出張にも個人旅行にも何度もEXPEDIAを利用しています。今までホテルで予約が確認できないことなど一度もありませんでした。しかし、このホテルでは確認できませんでした。30分以上待たされた挙句に、EXPEDIAに連絡してくださいというスタッフの対応を受けました。その後国際電話でEXPEDIAに連絡し、EXPEDIAから当ホテルへ連絡を入れてもらい、事が解決しました。結局ホテル側のミスでEXPEDIAにはなんの問題もありませんでした。また、冷蔵庫のは設置されているのですが、電源が入っていませんでした。古いホテルでにおいと湿気もひどく、二度と利用しません。
