Shangri La Guangzhou

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Shangri-La Hotel, Guangzhou for a business trip and my experience was amazing. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, with ample workspace and quiet ambience which made it ideal for business travellers. I especially appreciated the stunning views of pearl river during my busy schedule. The hotel offered a breakfast buffet with a wide variety of local & international options. Overall it offered a flawless corporate stay experience.

This 5-star hotel lives up to its star rating. Room was comfortable, service excellent, the furnishings luxurious and the breakfast excellent. There are several expensive restaurants within the hotel to choose from. One could live in this hotel without needing to go outside. The WiFi was excellent. Location was notvso good for us. The places we needed to visit were not far on the map but the traffic congestion meant 30+ minutes in a taxi.

Visited Guangzhou for 2 nights and stayed in Shangri-La during my short stay in China. I would NOT recommend it if you are tourists and you want to be close to the famous scene sights. Our goal is to meet families in Guangzhou so it was not an issue for us. The garden in the back was very pretty but there was some constructions going on (in mid July), and they transferred dirts between spots. But overall the whole garden was impact. Had no problem circling in the trail. There was also a mini forest next to the hotel was you could take slow walk with full shades (important in hot, humid and sunny weather in summer). Elevator was pretty old. Had problem inserting the card to select floor. Even entering the room sometimes would be a problem due to the card problem. Got two scoops of ice cream for free as the welcome gifts. Also tried their afternoon tea with our family. Overall delicate and nice.
