This was my second stay, and the hotel gave me a pleasant surprise with a free birthday upgrade. I appreciate the hotel's arrangement. The hotel originally had two jacuzzis, but unfortunately, one was out of order. I hope that once it's repaired, it will attract more guests.

The front desk staff were incredibly helpful and professional. They went above and beyond to accommodate my extra requests due to personal reasons. Although the room was a bit older than I expected, it was very comfortable. After checking in, I went straight to the pool, but I had to buy a swim cap and goggles on the spot to be able to use it. The breakfast had a wide variety of choices and was delicious!

Had a very pleasant stay at Mercure Guangzhou. The location is excellent very convenient, with TeeMall nearby and plenty of shops, restaurants and food options within walking distance. A special shout-out to the hotel reception 小潘 and 小业! They were incredibly helpful and patient with all our enquiries during our stay, especially with receiving and handling our Taobao parcels. Their friendly and helpful service really made our stay more comfortable and hassle free. Would definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to Guangzhou.

The hotel is newly renovated and exceptionally clean. It's located near Sunac Mall and Sunac Sports City. There are many dining options nearby, and transportation is convenient. It's also very close to Guangzhou High-Speed Railway Station. Highly recommended. The breakfast is plentiful and delicious.

The hotel is clean and smells lovely. Its location is close to tourist attractions, and it's easy to find restaurants nearby. The staff are wonderful and provide excellent service, including the front desk, housekeepers, and doormen. Everyone is cheerful and extremely helpful. The room is newly decorated, clean, and the bed is comfortable. What I liked most was having a separate sofa area for lounging and a desk for working.

Highly recommended - 1) location is great, linked to onelinkmall and mrt, walking distance to nearby malls like grand view. 2) Good sized,comfortable one bedder for a couple with a toddler. Had a pillow menu which is much appreciated as the default was too soft for us. What stands out is 3) Their service. All their staff made us feel welcomed and were prompt to attend to our requests.

We had an amazing stay at Citynote hotel. The location was excellent. Just a few steps away from Dafo Temple and a few minutes walk from Beijing road shopping street. They also have an amazing dining experience with free midnight snacks. Will definitely stay here again.

What to know before visiting Guangzhou

Quick snapshot of Guangzhou City and its attractions

Guangzhou City is a lively destination where theme parks, observation decks and events & shows drive most bookings, with tours and zoos also popular. Demand swings through the year — strong peaks around January and quieter late-winter and late-summer lulls — so the city alternates between busy festival-style periods and calmer stretches.

Best months to visit and how prices behave

Klook booking data show January is the busiest month while August sees the weakest demand. Prices do not exactly follow demand: Klook data indicate August is typically the priciest month, while October is usually the cheapest. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for October or the quieter trough months; for peak-season atmosphere and events, visit in January when demand is highest.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most experiences in Guangzhou can be booked close to arrival—typical travellers book about three days ahead, with some last-minute availability a day before. If you plan to visit in January (the peak period), consider securing popular activities earlier since that is when demand rises; otherwise, flexibility and short lead times make spontaneous planning easy on Klook.
