This is a weird hotel indeed. Meant for the business traveller, this hotel's decor looks more suited in Disneyland than in the business district in one of the most important economic centres of China!
I cannot rave about the service standard, as it is pretty standard fare for any Chinese-managed hotel. In fact, some of the quirks of Chinese-managed hotels remain -- the lack of smiles, the occasional brilliance in pleasing guests but the regular blank look on the faces of the service staff.
But hold, the lobby of the hotel can sweep any jaded traveller off his feet! Such opulence it borders on obscenity. The drive to look, act and be Versailles France is REALLY over the top. Even the doormen wore 18th century period costume! And everything from the doors to the door knob are in period style. Yet the feel is somewhat tacky, because you KNOW these are fakes and fabrications.
The contrived nature of the hotel's decor notwithstanding, I must say the facilities are more than adequate for the business traveller. The internet speed was fast and the business centre well equipped. At the end of a day of rigorous meetings, it's nice to retreat to the room and enjoy a nice, hot bath in the pseudo-jacuzzi bath tub. A nice bottle of champagne will complete the wonderful picture, but alas, the price tag for the Moet and Chandon was prohibitive...
Because it's located in the Tianhe business district, and most of my meetings were in the vincinity, I find the location fine. I didn't have time to do any leisurely stuff, except for some last-minute shopping at the lobby gift shop (very expensive!). But if you're going to see some of the attractions of this city such as Shamian Island and Chen Family Temple, the hotel is far away from the traditional heart of activities.
Then again, taxis are fairly cheap in Guangzhou and the traffic is not as maddening as in unmanageable Beijing or crowded Shanghai. The metro also zips you to the centre of town relatively fast, though there's some walking in between.
All in all, I will recommend this hotel for its newness and facilities. But if you come thinking that this is a place full of character and class, you'd be sorely disappointed.
