Buffet breakfast is very good on food choice and quality. Dinning environment is pleasant. Gym is a bit dated and small but ok. Staffs are very pleasant, friendly and helpful. Bed is too soft for me, maybe fine for others. Kettle in room was dirty and filthy.

This hotel is located right at the center of 上下九街. Very convenient to most of the downtown destinations. Clean and quiet. The staffs are all helpful and always smiles. Specially Timmothy Liu at the front counter, very polite and experienced on processing check in and check out procedures with delay.

They reused slippers. Need to pay for it if you take the used slippers away. Most hotel provide them free after you used the new ones. Also need to ask for toothbrushes.

The hotel was right at the doorstep of ShangXiaJiu Pedestrian Street, lots of shops and eating places to explore. The lobby was at Level 6, very nice and cozy as well. We really appreciated it that connecting rooms were available during our stay and very happy with the rooms. The property is a little old, but I'll still stay there because it's in the heart of Guangzhou. Taxis are easy to get from the hotel lobby at Level 1 as well.

Very close to a large shopping street. And close to the mall and train station. Was very impressed with the hotel's location and cleanliness. One thing, I found the shower, sink, and faucet area could be cleaner. Otherwise, very happy.

This hotel is acceptable for the price. It is an older establishment in a convenient location. Service is average. Adding more bell hop services would help because the reception lobby is on a different floor. We actually had to lug our bags into the lobby ourselves. Having stayed in newer hotels on other trips, this hotels seems to need refurbishing and better cleaning, especially in the bathroom.

Great location right on the very busy Shangxiajiu pedestrian shopping street, surrounded by 100s of restaurants and shops with cheap prices, close to historic landmarks right in the middle of original authentic old Guangzhou. Rooftop pool on 14th floor is excellent, always empty, great place to relax every afternoon after a busy business day. This is the main attraction to us. Big breakfast buffet, roomy rooms, a bit old, but very nice. We have stayed here many times.

A great hotel location
Got alittle problem at the front desk. Was told that there was no twin room which I requested for, but was eventually solved by the supervisor. No toothbrush, no tooth paste, no comb, no shower cap, no cotton bud provided in the bathroom from 1st sep 2019 onward due to environmental issue. However you can request throught the front desk for them. Breakfast choice is sufficient. Bed abit soft but still acceptable.

On the last day, while we are washing the hands in their restroom on the check in floor, a male sworker came into the restroom without any advance notice or knocking the restroom door. He just get a piece of cloth from the store room and then went out of the room without giving any apology. It seemed that it's very normal for him to do that. We were extremely surprised and weired why a man is allowed to go to the female toilet of a hotel under internationl brand. We

Holiday Inn Guangzhou - 4 star
The Hotel is in an area that when you enter takes you back a little. Once inside the Hotel the atmosphere is friendly. Counter staff can speak English and the wait time for booking in is not too long. The standard room is very spacious and the shower pressure is wonderful. Breakfast is inexpensive and a very good variety of food for around A$14.00 per person. At the front of the Hotel is the pedestrian street with plenty of shops - mainly for young people. A big shout out to Leo who helped us with finding locations and transport. If I was to visit Guangzhou again I would certainly stay at the Holiday Inn without any hesitation.
