Guangzhou Yueda City International Hotel

Disappointing Stay at Yueda Financial City International Hotel The Yueda Financial City International Hotel unfortunately falls short of expectations, particularly for foreign travellers. Despite a few positive points, the overall experience left much to be desired. Pros: Cleanliness: Despite its outdated décor, the hotel is clean and appears well-maintained. Breakfast Variety: The breakfast offered a reasonable selection, which might be acceptable for international guests (though notably lacking cheese, which seems to be standard in many Chinese hotels). Cons: Location: The hotel is far from Guangzhou’s city centre, making it inconvenient for anyone hoping to explore the city. It’s also not easily accessible via metro, and the tangled network of nearby roads and highways makes getting a taxi from the metro station a frustrating experience. To add to this, the hotel’s entrance is tucked away at the rear, obscured from the main road, which makes finding it even more challenging. Décor and Room Design: The outdated, overly traditional décor feels better suited to older guests with specific tastes. More concerning, however, is the bizarre room configuration. The bed is positioned near a window to the bathroom, leaving no privacy whatsoever. This setup is especially inappropriate for guests travelling with colleagues or acquaintances. Elevators: The elevator system here is just a joke. Long waits and overcrowding are standard, adding unnecessary frustration to daily routines. Air Conditioning: The air conditioning was a significant problem during our stay. The room’s air smelled of soil, and despite reporting it three times and having engineers inspect the system, the temperature never dropped below 24°C. Coupled with a room without windows, the lack of proper cooling made the stay uncomfortable. Breakfast Chaos: The breakfast area was overcrowded and noisy during our stay. Long queues, chaotic conditions, and the lack of sufficient seating made the experience unpleasant. The single coffee machine frequently broke down, displaying Chinese error messages, and required multiple attempts to get a cup of coffee. Amenities: For a supposed five-star hotel, the amenities were subpar. Only one tissue box and half a roll of toilet paper were provided, along with a half-used bottle of shampoo. Solid soap bars were provided instead of liquid soap, adding to the outdated feel of the hotel. Conclusion: This hotel does not live up to the standards of a five-star property. The poor location, impractical room design, malfunctioning air conditioning, and chaotic service made for a disappointing stay. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone, especially foreigners looking for convenience and comfort in Guangzhou.

Hygienic condition is good. The location is near the metro station.

Superb location. Easy to access to the convention hall and near to mrt. Convenience store and F&B area all within walking distance. Room is big and bed very comfortable. Great place to rest and relax after a long and taxing day.

Excellent stay. Nice location, ambience all great. Would like to come again.

Be careful while booking hotel rooms. Not all having windows. Had to pay extra rmb 100 for a room with window. Have direct shuttle bus to canton fair.

The service was beyond any expectations: i’ve got the upgrade and early check-in upon arrival. Nice free coffee and ice cream, good location, large rooms with bathroom window. The visit was short but nothing disturbed.
