Marriott Hotels in Guangzhou

We made a 2-night leisure visit during the Canton Fair. International brand hotels in the city were charging 3-4 times their normal rates. So we decided to stay at Marriott in the Baiyun District (near the airport though we never heard airplane noises during our stay) where the rates were still reasonable. A metro exit is right outside the hotel gate, but we never used it because ride-hailing is so convenient & affordable in China (RMB20-30 would take me to practically all the tourist spots in the city). The hotel is quite good - it’s new, clean & big with 2 blocks of rooms. Our standard room was spacious, with separate shower & toilet areas. Breakfast was also very good with usual Western food choices & even more Chinese food choices. The only complaint I have is that the free Wifi was so slow (only 2-3 Mbps) that I gave up and used my phone’s data plan throughout our stay.

Had a short stay at this hotel with my parents during our trip in Guangdong. Its indoor pool indeed is the catching point when I searched through my hotel choice. And it ends up to be a very satisfactory experience when we tried it. My mom and dad just love the pool so much - size is reasonable and it's very clean, the lighting makes it look stylish too. Other than the indoor pool, I also like its location...just a few steps to a few shopping malls where you can find a variety of shops and numerous restaurants. That's so convenient for short stay visitors to the place. Room is spacious, just that the hotel has a bit of age so I think the design is a little old and outdated. Overall, our stay at the hotel is a very pleasant one.

I had a very good implication to the hotel when my family checked in around 8 pm on that day. We got an upgraded suite and the counter staff Ms Ho is very helpful. With her kind instruction we managed to tried on AI taxi to a nearby shopping centre. It was such an experience going on a taxi without a human driver. The technology is so advance that I could not believed. Overall, we enjoy the stay very much. We look forward to next stay in next future. Kelvin Lau
