An excellent hotel with excellent concierges services. They helped us booking the train tickets and provided us very useful information about the local areas. I specifically wanted to thank Mr. Chen who assisted our transportation to another hotel with 5 big pieces of luggages. It’s little hard to find big car in that hotel area without pre booking. So his help was much appreciated!

The White Swan should be an icon of Guangzhou, but my experience was deeply disappointing. Service was slow and unprofessional, dining staff came across as rude, and I was bitten by mosquitoes countless times. For such a renowned hotel, better service and proper pest control are urgently needed.
