Guangzhou! Affordable hotels worth a second visit!! So comfortable!!
Tested! Four Points by Sheraton Guangzhou, Dongpu, perfect for family trips!
I recently took my family to Guangzhou and stayed at the Four Points by Sheraton Guangzhou, Dongpu. The experience was amazing, so I had to share it with you!
🏨 Hotel exterior and location:
The hotel has a traditional Chinese garden style, and you feel a sense of peace and relaxation as soon as you step inside. It is part of the same group as the Marriott Hotel and Element Hotel, and they share a common area. The location is great, right next to Baiyun Culture Square Station on Line 2. Nearby are CapitaMall Yunshang, 5th Runway Shopping Mall, and Guangzhou Children's Park, making it convenient for shopping and taking the kids out.
🧹 Soundproofing/cleanliness: The hotel is very clean, the rooms are tidy, and the soundproofing is good, so it's quiet at night.
🏘️ Room type/layout: I booked a selected twin room, which was just the right size and had a reasonable layout. However, the bathroom is relatively small, with only a shower and no bathtub. When showering, you need to pull the hidden doors on both sides of the sink, which is more convenient.
🛌 Supplies/facilities: The bed is really comfortable, as expected from a Marriott hotel, and the quality is guaranteed. The hotel has a gym and swimming pool. Although the pool is outdoors and gets direct sunlight in the morning and afternoon, the facilities are well maintained. There is a children's club in the common area, which is shared by the three hotels, and you need to register your room number to enter. The children's club is a good experience, and there aren't many kids on weekends, so the kids can play to their heart's content.
💰 Per capita consumption: I booked for less than CNY 600, which included breakfast for two. The price on other platforms is about CNY 600, so the price difference is not big, and the cost performance is quite high.
🍳 Dining: Breakfast is served in the buffet restaurant on the first floor, with a wide variety and great taste. There are 6 types of porridge, more Western baked goods, and relatively fewer Chinese dim sum, but the overall taste is very good.
💁♂️ Service: The hotel staff are enthusiastic, respond quickly, and are very professional. They smile and greet guests, and even chat and play with my daughter, which is very friendly.
💗 Other tips:
1. The hotel has a large common area and a Peninsula Restaurant. Most areas have a roof design, so you can walk around without getting sunburned, which is very pleasant.
2. This hotel is suitable for business and family trips. Although the children's facilities are not used much, this means that the kids won't be crowded when playing and can have more fun.
My stay at the Four Points by Sheraton Guangzhou, Dongpu was really good, and I was satisfied with the location, facilities, and service. If you have any family hotel recommendations, feel free to share them in the comments!
