I absolutely have to give this place a five-star review! From booking inquiries to check-in and check-out, every staff member wore a smile and offered help proactively. When the front desk found out it was our first time here, they warmly recommended local food spots and transportation routes—so thoughtful!
Very clean room and the staff were lovely! It’s in a great location (the pedestrian street), and the walk from the nearest metro station is safe and takes you past lots of cute street food spots. The moon bridge and some bars are very close by too. Breakfast was a great spread of various Chinese dishes, but if you miss that, it’s not far to get to Shamian Island and a bunch of other sights. There’s an all day vending machine to get simple snacks and drinks on site. The rooftop is really cute too - the staff will bring you a free pot of tea once a day. Decorations were lovely and tasteful, old Cantonese vibes. A great stay!
Foodies can't go wrong choosing this place! The hotel's location is basically a culinary hub—within walking distance, you'll find traditional snack streets in the old town as well as trendy creative restaurants. It's also super convenient to head to Yongqing Fang or Shamian Island for meals and shopping, and when you return in the evening, you can unwind in the hotel's cozy tea lounge. Plus, the rooms are modern and well-equipped, and the service is genuinely thoughtful.
The hotel is located on the Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street, with very convenient transportation. It is a very distinctive hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The environment is very nice, with free tea and water. The view from the upper floor is very beautiful.
The staff were very courteous and available. And the subway, where you can go for a walk to yongvillage and sasha. The rooms are modern and clean, and at the top is a tea room with night vision equipment. Guangzhou is a real tourism day
For foodies and urban explorers, this location is absolutely perfect. Tucked away in a quiet alley of the Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street, you’re just steps away from legendary flavors: the delicate shrimp dumplings at Tao Tao Ju, the fragrant lotus seed buns at Lin Heung Lau, and the smooth, creamy double-layer milk pudding at Nam Sin. Spend your days wandering under the historic arcades, and your evenings savoring local delicacies. After dinner, take a leisurely stroll to Yongqing Fang to admire the iconic Moon Bridge. Every bit of the romantic old West Gate charm isn’t just an idea—it’s right outside your door.
For my first trip to Guangzhou, I really wanted to experience the authentic Xiguan style, and choosing this place definitely didn't disappoint. The hotel is tucked away in an old street, full of character. Following everyone's travel tips, I spent the day taking photos at Yongqing Fang, explored Shangxiajiu for food and shopping in the evening, and ended everything perfectly with a pot of tea on the rooftop. A perfectly planned day!
This hotel is right inside the Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street—step out and turn right, and you’re surrounded by iconic old-school eateries! Tao Tao Ju and Chen Tian Ji’s fish skin are just a short walk away. Feeling hungry late at night? No problem, just head out for a quick bite. And the view from the 9th-floor rooftop? Absolutely stunning city lights—it’s like staying inside a postcard. Best part? After a long day of exploring, you’re just five minutes from crashing in your room. Perfect for a lazy traveler like me.
Hotel was in a great location on ShangXiaJiu. The room was good and kept clean. Water pressure could be better. Amenities were great. Accessibility could be better
Business trip to Guangzhou, and I managed to squeeze in a mini-tour while here! The hotel offers free Wi-Fi and a cozy work area—perfect for wrapping up tasks. After work, I just step outside, and within five minutes, I’m at a time-honored local eatery treating myself to some comfort food. A stroll under the arcaded buildings (qilou) after dinner felt like a proper little adventure. Skipped the hassle of rushing to tourist spots—efficiency and relaxation, all in one.
My first trip to Guangzhou has been fantastic, especially with this hotel! Its location is absolutely unbeatable – I enjoyed morning tea at Guangzhou Restaurant and explored Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street in the evening. The best part? Whenever I felt tired, I could easily return to my room for a quick break. The staff were incredibly helpful too, enthusiastically recommending unique local spots around the area.
Alright, let me tell you about this hotel – it totally won me over. The service was so warm and the rooms were spotless, which made me feel right at home. But the real kicker? The location is absolutely unbeatable. You can easily swing by Yongqing Fang to soak up the old-school Xiguan vibe, and then hop over to Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street whenever a craving for authentic local snacks hits. Seriously, if you're looking for a great place to stay, this is it.

Great stay
Very helpful n friendly service. Great location. The breakfast spread was even changed from morning to morning.
I loved my stay. I was with my toddler and the staff was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure we were ok and well taken care of. Breakfast was good and there’s also lots to do in the area, very walkable and lively. Highly recommend!!

Cheap stay in an only OK area. It’s a shopping street but all the shops appear to sell the same stuff and it’s very generic. Far from the nearest train stations and taxis cannot take you to the door, they have to drop you off 600-800m away. Breakfast was very basic but free, service was excellent. Overall good for the money.
Incredible service from check-in to check-out.
All the staff were incredibly attentive, which made our stay very enjoyable.
Special bonus for the iced lemon tea service on the rooftop and the thoughtful assistance all the way to our taxi at departure.
Don’t hesitate — go with your eyes closed!
Really friendly and lovely hotel with great service especially with the tea floor. The location was fantastic as it was on a pedestrian street. Good food options and cafes nearby. Easy to get around with trains and walking.
This was actually my second booking at this hotel, and I’m happy to say the experience was just as good as the first time. The staff were, once again, incredibly friendly and helpful - they even allowed an early check-in, which I really appreciated.
The room was clean, comfortable, and free from any cigarette smell, which is a big plus for us. Breakfast was included and generous, and the overall service felt consistent with my previous stay.
Just like before, the small lane leading to the hotel has a bit of an odor, but once you’re inside, it’s quiet and very comfortable. The location is super convenient, right in the middle of a walking street with easy access to food and shops.
I’d definitely recommend this place and will keep coming back whenever I’m in the area.
