We had a great stay! The room was comfortable, and having a projector instead of a traditional TV was a unique and enjoyable touch. The location was excellent, with plenty of shops, restaurants, and conveniences all within walking distance.

Moderately active elderly mother and daughter short trip. We had a good stay with stargaze with the standouts being the very convenient location especially for night owls. Plenty of shopping, food and massages in the area. We also wanted to commend the very hospitable and excellent service from the front desk to the morning buffet chefs. They often chit chat with my mother and she loved their recommendations for food. The rooms are quite basic but expected for the value in price. Thanks for the memorable time in Guangzhou

The front desk staff and the housekeeping ladies are very nice and helpful. The location is perfect, in the pedestrian zone, The building and rooms are remodeled and well maintained. The toiled and bath are not separated which is typical in the residential building in the area, but not common with hotels. The breakfast is very basic.

Just checked out after a two-night stay, and I’m pretty happy overall.The hotel is right on Pedestrian Street. Step right downstairs and you’re in the tourist area. The location is unbeatable. The room isn’t huge, but the layout is sensible and it has everything you need—super comfortable to stay in.Cleanliness was good: the bed linens were clean, and the AC and hot water worked perfectly.The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, answering all my questions. If you’re visiting this area and want something convenient, this place is definitely worth considering.

I absolutely have to give this place a five-star review! From booking inquiries to check-in and check-out, every staff member wore a smile and offered help proactively. When the front desk found out it was our first time here, they warmly recommended local food spots and transportation routes—so thoughtful!

This hotel left a very good impression on me. Its warm service and clean accommodation environment were reassuring. Most importantly, its location is extremely convenient. It allows easy access to Yongqingfang to experience the traditional Xiguan culture, and you can also explore Shangxiajiu anytime to sample authentic local delicacies. It is indeed an excellent accommodation choice.

In Shangxiajiu area, you can find everything you need right outside. The decoration style suits my taste; it has a bit of the old Guangzhou feel. The location is fantastic. When you're tired from shopping, you can just go back to the hotel and rest. The waiters all greet you with smiles and explain things in detail when you ask for directions. The corridor is beautifully decorated, and many people are taking photos there.

Foodies can't go wrong choosing this place! The hotel's location is basically a culinary hub—within walking distance, you'll find traditional snack streets in the old town as well as trendy creative restaurants. It's also super convenient to head to Yongqing Fang or Shamian Island for meals and shopping, and when you return in the evening, you can unwind in the hotel's cozy tea lounge. Plus, the rooms are modern and well-equipped, and the service is genuinely thoughtful.

The self-service laundry in the hotel is really very convenient. After several days of traveling, finally I can do some laundry. The viewing platform on the 10th floor has a great view. When I came back in the evening, I happened to catch the sunset, and I took several photos which were all very beautiful. The location is in Shangxianji. It's very close to Yongqingfang and Shafa for dining. Just a few steps away is a famous old restaurant.
