Grand Hyatt Guangzhou

“Simply the best, my home in Guangzhou”

The best place to stay in Guangzhou. My home in Guangzhou, near the mall, near the business, near the transportation and inside a fabulous park.

“Great breakfast but bathroom layout was unusual”

1st trip to Guangzhou and Tianhe is part of the new city centre, with Grand Hyatt being on the northwest side of Huacheng Park/Square. It's location is very good, with a short walk to the river to the south, and a quick cab ride to the major malls (Parc Central, Grandview Mall) to the north. The lobby was on the 22nd floor near the top. Suppose its for safety / security access, or maybe the architect was just having fun designing it this way. We has 2 connecting rooms, which were a mirror image. The rooms are very large, with a small sofa and writing desk. The bathroom was very well-stocked with all possible amenities. The bathroom had a very unusual layout, with the shower stall in the centre of the room, surrounded on 3-and-a-half sides by glass. It took a bit of puzzle-solving to slide and shift doors and curtains to close off for privacy, and makes walking around a bit of a maze, especially at night when the lights are off. There was a half-sized bathtub, which made no sense, one can only immerse fully seated with legs fully curled up. The included breakfast at the Market Cafe was the winner. After crossing the interconnecting sky bridge between the 2 buildings, it takes up a whole floor with a triangular layout, with the food in the centre and tables and seats all around the perimeter. The bakery and pastries were at the entrance, with the Chinese food options toward the right and Western options to the left. Even after 4 days' stay, I didn't manage to try all the offerings once through, there were so many choices and most of them satisfying. Would be back again if I needed to stay in this area.

“Location 👌”

Location was beyond perfect beautiful view from my room & it was clean. Price was good. No noise - so a 10. Definitely a home away from home.

“Old hotel at CBD with luke warm service”

A recent two-night business trip stay didn't make me want to return to this hotel in any hurry. It was a grand hotel, but sadly losing the glittering part.

A recent two-night business trip stay didn't make me want to return to this hotel in any hurry. It was a grand hotel, but sadly losing the glittering part. Location-wise, it's at the centre of the CBD, walking distance to malls and neighbouring office buildings. There are plenty of F&B places around, and it's a nice place to take pictures of the landmark Canton Tower. The hotel looks old from many angles. I stayed in the newly renovated corner room with large windows. The room is clean and spacious, but I didn't like the bathroom at all--tiny bath not usable, the shower is weak, and the location of the washbasin is strange and impractical. Restaurants have places leaking. or broken. Food offerings at breakfast, room service and the cafe were dismal. Service at both the executive level and the lobby was minimal. It feels like a hotel happy to accommodate domestic conferences guests and doen't care much about the rest.
