This is an old-school hotel in Guangzhou, now managed by White Swan Hotel. It's in the heart of old Guangzhou, right by Haizhu Square and the Pearl River. They've recently launched a new service: a sightseeing double-decker bus where you can enjoy dim sum (morning tea) while touring the city – sounds great!

Facilities: Due to hardware limitations, there's no bathtub, but it's perfectly sufficient for business travelers.
Cleanliness: Tidy and clean.
Environment: There are many authentic Cantonese restaurants and Guangzhou snack shops in the vicinity.
Service: The front desk and room service are excellent!

I've been to Guangzhou many times, but this was my first stay at the White Swan Hotel, and it left a deep impression. First off, the location is excellent, right by Shamian Island, and just a short walk from Guangzhou Cultural Park (Thirteen Factories Museum). I booked an executive river-view room, and the young ladies at the executive lounge were incredibly warm and meticulous in their service, proactively asking guests what they needed. They not only upgraded my room but also extended my check-out time, which I really appreciated. The hotel's internal environment is also fantastic; the small garden in the lobby is truly refreshing. The hotel breakfast is very generous, with many varieties of congee alone, and plenty of Cantonese dim sum. Having dim sum by the river in the morning was a stylish experience. Thumbs up to this hotel!👍👍

I chose the veteran Guangzhou Baiyun Hotel because of its bustling commercial surroundings and convenient transportation. It's just a short bus ride to Guangzhou Wanguo Outlets, and other attractions are also easily accessible! I highly recommend trying the food at Da Ge Restaurant when you're in Guangzhou. Coincidentally, I visited on March 8th, and the hotel even warmly presented me with a rose!

Thanks to the front desk, they arranged for us to stay on a non-smoking floor, which we greatly appreciated! The room was clean and tidy, very nice!

I had a very pleasant stay at the Asia International Hotel. I was extremely satisfied with the overall experience. The breakfast was extensive and offered a wide variety of options, all while enjoying a beautiful panoramic view, which made the mornings even more special.
The swimming pool was also a great addition—clean, relaxing, and perfect to unwind after a busy day.
What stood out most was the staff. They were very friendly and helpful, and communication in English was excellent, which made everything easy and comfortable.
I would definitely recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.

Facilities: The room came with a small sofa and table, and the hairdryer worked great! 👍🏻 The disposable slippers were also quite thick and comfortable. 👍🏻 There was even a small lamp by the bed. 
Cleanliness: The environment was very clean and tidy.
Service: The staff were very dedicated. I even forgot something and they contacted me to help mail it back! 👍🏻
The hotel is super close to Guangzhou Station; you can see it right outside the East Plaza and Metro Exit A. For safety reasons, you need to pick up food delivery from the lobby yourself. The air conditioner made a slight noise, but if you're really tired and just want to sleep, you probably won't notice it.

This is supposed to be a non-smoking hotel but the first room they assigned me reeked strongly of cigarette smoke. They were nice enough to change it and I rushed out for dinner without checking the room cleanliness. After I came back, I noticed the toilet floor had hair and it looked stained.The hotel also has a very silly headboard design which was very dusty with dust probably dropping on your head as you slept. I was staying for 3 nights and for me cleanliness is paramount. Front desk were very nice and changed room for me again. There was a ***** hair on the toilet floor which the front desk staff Cici picked up...by then I gave up and realised it's a housekeeping issue with the hotel so I cleaned all the counter and table surfaces with my wet wipes. The next day the housekeeper came to clean the headboard which was so dusty she herself seemed shocked. She changed the bed linens and said she'd clean the toilet floor which she evidently didn't cuz when I used a wet tissue it turned up black. The next day a new housekeeper appeared who told me if I had any issues I should tell her directly otherwise she wouldn't get paid for cleaning the room. I really don't know how housekeeping is managed. Are they even trained properly on how to clean a room? The hotel is less than 2 years old and already looks worn out! 
I would've checked out early but felt bad for front desk who tried really hard with service recovery.
The location is also not that great, you'll get stuck in bad traffic if you take Didi on the weekends and Amaps recommended I walk or take the bus to Chen Clan Academy and Yongqingfang even though there's supposedly a metro station nearby.
The indoor smoking issue is also very bad, you can smell cigarette smoke while walking down the corridor at night and it came into my room through the central aircon.
Kudos to the front desk for trying their best to resolve things but I won't recommend this hotel.

Pros: This hotel has a wonderful sense of history and character, with a decor that beautifully blends old-world charm with modern touches. It was very clean, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bedding was excellent. The option to choose your pillow was a thoughtful touch. The bath towels were huge, big enough to wrap around your whole body. The bathroom was a wet/dry separation with excellent water pressure. I loved the full-wall vanity mirror. The room lighting was also very well-designed, ensuring that even with different schedules among multiple people, no one disturbed each other. The front desk downstairs was always helpful and responsive. The laundry room upstairs was an absolute surprise – incredibly well-equipped, even with shoe-washing facilities! Shamian Island itself is a very convenient location; you can leisurely walk to Yongqing Fang from here. 
Cons: The only minor drawback was the lack of enough hooks in the quadruple room bathroom, nowhere to hang the bath towels. Also, the swimming pool was out of order due to disrepair.

Fantastic! The room was spacious, clean, and tidy. The staff were professional, polite, and well-trained. We booked a package that included buffet dinner and breakfast, which was excellent value for money. The buffet dinner offered a wide variety of dishes, including seafood, oysters, sashimi, salmon, and local Guangzhou specialties – truly abundant and well worth the price given the hotel's caliber. The restaurant staff were also very attentive and provided excellent service. The main courtyard of the Guangzhou Guest House is beautiful and offers a peaceful retreat amidst the city's hustle and bustle; even our ride-share driver thought it was a scenic spot. All in all, Guangzhou Guest House provided a wonderful start to our trip to Guangzhou, and we would definitely stay here again if we have the chance.

My stay in the deluxe twin room was excellent, exceeding my expectations throughout. The room was spacious and airy, with a simple yet elegant design, great natural light, and a fantastic view. It was immaculately clean and odor-free, with attention to detail evident everywhere. The two large beds were soft and comfortable, and the bedding was wonderfully smooth against the skin. Coupled with the quiet environment, I enjoyed a peaceful night's sleep without any disturbances.

The bathroom featured a dry/wet separation, with new and complete facilities. The hot water was plentiful and stable, and the toiletries were high-quality. In-room smart devices were convenient and easy to use, and amenities like the desk, sofa, and charging ports were well-appointed, making it comfortable for both work and relaxation.

The front desk staff were warm and professional, making check-in efficient and quick. Room service was prompt and the staff were considerate and attentive. The hotel's convenient location made getting around and dining out very easy. Overall, it offers exceptional value for money and is perfect for both business trips and group travel. I highly recommend it and will definitely choose to stay here again!

As a long-standing hotel, the overall service and management are excellent. The environment is clean and beautiful, and the food is delicious, easily comparable to popular restaurants outside. Before heading to Guangzhou, I was a bit worried after seeing some old-fashioned room photos in the reviews. However, to my pleasant surprise, the twin room we booked was on a newly renovated floor with a simple and stylish design that perfectly suits younger tastes. From that point on, there were no flaws whatsoever. This trip was absolutely perfect, and I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Guangdong!

I brought my mom here based on a travel blogger's recommendation. The blogger mentioned that the front desk helped with luggage upon arrival, but we didn't receive that service. The location is excellent; it's lovely to stroll along the river after dinner, and it's very convenient to get to the old town. We were given complimentary fruit. The cleanliness was just so-so, and some areas felt a bit dated. My main complaint is that the floors are thin, and the soundproofing from upstairs is poor. We unfortunately had children staying above us who were running barefoot at 11:30 PM, during naptime, and again at 6 AM. I reported it to the front desk staff, hoping they could speak to them, but instead of potentially offending the guests, they offered to move us to another room. I declined because I didn't want the hassle of packing and moving all our luggage. Unfortunately, the noise continued on the second night. This was quite bothersome to me.

The hotel is located in Songkou Ancient Town, making it convenient for exploring the surrounding area. The location is excellent. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 The hotel's exterior is beautiful, and even more picturesque on rainy days. 😍😍
The hotel is a renovated historic building, and some of the design elements (such as the windows) retain their nostalgic character. 🏠🏠 The rooms are bright, clean, and very comfortable.
The front desk staff was friendly and helpful, sharing detailed information about nearby attractions. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 It was pouring rain when we checked out, but the front desk staff not only reminded us to drive to the hotel's location, but also held an umbrella for us and helped us load our luggage into the car. Very thoughtful. 🥰🥰🥰

The room was very spacious with a great ambiance and good soundproofing, so we weren't disturbed during our rest. The service was also very attentive, and we even received small gifts like a fridge magnet and a keychain upon check-in – really thoughtful! 

**Facilities:** Besides being well-equipped, the underground parking garage has charging stations, there are USB ports on both sides of the bed, and the shower room, with its wet-dry separation, even has hooks for hanging clothes. So many thoughtful details! Definitely worth commending and recommending!

**Hygiene:** The entire room was very neat and clean.

**Service:** Extremely thoughtful. From check-in to check-out, everything was attentive. They even specially changed our room because of road construction outside.

Service: The staff were all very helpful and friendly. 👍

Environment: A stylish and trendy hotel, perfect for Instagram photos. 🏨

Hygiene: Spotlessly clean.

Facilities: The smart home features were a bit finicky. At night, the toilet would often auto-flush and open its lid even when no one was around. The lights also had a sound sensor, turning on with any noise when I was trying to sleep. Furthermore, the shampoo and shower gel bottles were constantly knocked off by the shower hose and were difficult to dispense. These are areas that definitely need improvement.

Facilities (positive aspects): On the positive side, the bathtub was excellent, complete with disposable bath liners and bath salts. Disposable toilet seat covers and other small amenities showed great attention to detail.

Environment (positive aspects): It was also lovely to enjoy a drink and moonlight on the rooftop in the evening. Both the room and balcony were very spacious, as was the bathroom. The toilet was pristine, with no odd stains, which speaks volumes about their hygiene standards.

Environment (location): The hotel's location within a pedestrian street was perfect for shopping and sightseeing. However, parking outside the hotel proved to be a major inconvenience.

Service (overall impression): I specifically chose this hotel because of the White Swan brand, and overall, I had a very positive experience. 👍
