Shamian Hotel Reviews

First of all, the location, cannot be better on Shamian island, located opposite the river park with all the activities going on. The room was clean, comfortable with a great roof terrace (no real view), nice bathroom with piping hot water. My overall feeling is that the hotel is a little tired in need of refurbishment and decoration, but the location and room itself makes up for this. I would stay again

good location on Shamian Island

Hotel rooms a lil bit old, i think long time didn’t renovate it

It is adjacent to Shamian South Street. There are 711 and Qiaomei restaurants just outside the door. It is not far from the Pearl River bank. It is convenient and comfortable. You can run around Shamian Island in the morning. It is a relaxing trip with slow life and European architectural style.

I went to Shamian Island in Guangzhou this weekend and chose to stay on the island to better experience all aspects of Shamian. Of course, I couldn't afford to stay at the White Swan, and the Victory Hotel was a bit overpriced, so I chose the Shamian Hotel as the second best option. Shamian Hotel is located at No. 52, Shamian South Street, opposite Shamian Park. It is actually in the same building as Qiaomei Food. The first and second floors are part of Qiaomei Food, and the fourth floor also has the latter's VIP rooms and the hotel's office, and the other areas are the hotel's guest rooms. The 412 executive twin room I stayed in was actually the last one in the corridor. The room price was less than 400 yuan, and it was worth staying there. The decoration of the whole room is not luxurious, and it even retains the style of the previous guesthouse, but basically everything can be used to its full potential. Facing the entrance is the bathroom and shower room. What's more interesting is that his shower room has no sealed door, so I always wonder if the water will splash into the bathroom outside when taking a shower. On the other side of the door is the cloakroom and tea table. The door of the cloakroom needs to be carefully adjusted, otherwise it is not easy to turn off the lights. There are two small bottles of water on the tea table. I saw that someone gave a bad review for this, but I don't think it's worth it. There is a low sofa for luggage next to the tea table, separated by a trash can. The fabric of the sofa seems to have been polluted, but at least it won't dirty the luggage. Opposite the TV are two beds, and between the beds is a bedside table, which is still in the red paint style of the 1980s. There are two single sofas and a coffee table by the window. The sofa and coffee table are not arranged by the window. There is also a walkway behind. Going back to the other side is a corner desk, and there are also plugs to turn on the computer and mobile phone. Of course, when sitting here, the air conditioner is blowing directly in front of you, which is normal. Many hotel rooms are designed like this, because if it is not designed like this, the air conditioner will blow towards the bed. Although the whole room is very old, it is at least quite clean. During the two days of stay, no cockroaches or insects were found, there was no dust accumulation in the corners, no blood or stains on the sheets, and the toilet seat and towels were also clean. I am quite satisfied with this. Of course, I also need to point out that it is impossible to exterminate cockroaches in Guangzhou. When I was about to check out on the last day, I had already dragged my luggage out of the room, and I suddenly found a cockroach lying at the door of 409 in the corridor. This hotel is really in a bad shape. In addition, it should be pointed out that this hotel does not have breakfast. The reason is very simple. The location of the breakfast restaurant on the first floor is Qiaomei Food and another simple restaurant. If you want to have breakfast, you can go to Qiaomei, but I don’t recommend going there. The sixth floor of Taoranxuan next door has a more delicious view of the panoramic view of the Pearl River. Overall, Shamian Hotel is better than I thought. It is cheap but not low-quality, with a superior location and quiet and clean rooms. Except for being a little old, there are no major disadvantages. It is a good choice for personal travel.

The hotel is in a good location, next to two Cantonese tea restaurants and a 711, and it is very convenient for walking along the river. The north-facing rooms are damp, and it would be better if you upgrade to a south-facing room.

The hotel is good, there is free coffee, it is very convenient to go anywhere around, Xiaofang's service is thoughtful

I have wanted to stay at Shamian Hotel for a long time, and I am happy to have the opportunity to realize my wish this time. The hotel is very good, clean and tidy, and a little romantic. It is across the road from the White Swan Hotel, and the beautiful Pearl River is right in front of it, especially the night view is amazing. It is also convenient to eat, and there are all kinds of food. It is even more convenient to travel. There are many bus routes outside Shamian Island. More importantly, the entire Shamian is a scenic area, and you can see the scenery from any position and angle.

The room is large, the location is good, and the hygiene is good. The only drawback is that there is no air conditioning. It is still a bit cold at this time. I added a quilt, which is convenient for travel. It is very comfortable to watch the night view by the Pearl River at night.

The location is great. It is opposite Shamian Park and next to Qiao Mei and Tao Ranxuan. The room facilities are of the more traditional kind, and overall they are OK. Special praise for the front desk service.

The facilities are simple but the price/performance ratio is very high. It is located in the Shamian Scenic Area, opposite the White Swan Hotel. It is a ten-minute walk from Link Plaza and the subway station. Tao Tao Ju's main store is within walking distance. It is very convenient for eating and traveling.

Shamian Island is a must-visit place when you come to Guangzhou. The hotel is on the island, which is very convenient for dining or visiting. The front desk staff are very enthusiastic. It is also close to the subway station.

The room was quite clean, without any peculiar smell, but the facilities were a bit old, and the air conditioner could not be completely turned off, so it was still a bit cold for people with a cold. The TV had many channels, just in time for the Olympics, so it was ok to use.

The service is very good and cost-effective. There is a famous morning tea shop next door.
