Enjoyable stay
Pros:

Stayed here for three nights, four days. Cost about 130 Euros.

Room was fine, spacious, with a comfortable bed, well aired, nice desk for my online work, and the toilet and shower were fine. Room was cleaned every day with water and clean towels always provided.

Service good, friendly and attentive.

Location was ok - central location although still a bit of a walk to the city sights.

The hotel has a few restaurants on site - but unfortunately we didn't try any.

Not the worst place to stay.....enjoyed my stay here.

Pleasant surprise
Pros:

Visiting Canton Fair, we stayed in the studio style rooms for a week, visiting local spots and Canton Tower. After days walking the large trade fair site, it was relaxing to return to foot massage and dinner in the open air restaurant. The local menu was great but we didn’t try the snake on the menu, maybe next time. We would definitely stay again

Pros:

Evaluating quality in Chinese hotels is usually challenging, because they either are expensive upscale 5 stars or rundown 2 stars garbage, its hard to find a good average 3 stars hotel.

After the stay between 20 to 27 of October, during the Canton fair, i am confident to say that this is a 2,5 star hotel, the main problems is the cleanliness of the beds and the smell of cigarettes. The breakfast was ok to me but my family didn't liked it, there was plenty of food but most of it was Chinese.
The price of the breakfast itself was very expensive, so do not buy it separately. There was a shuttle bus to and from the fair, and a reception party that gave me water and snacks, that was nice. And plenty of toiletries in the bathroom my room.

It is also located in a central region of the city, there was a subway entrance not very far away, and it's surroundings are very dirty.
I would recommend this hotel if you like to eat Chinese food, do not mind the state of the surroundings and find it at a cheap price, it's not bad, but i think you can find something better.

Not recommended
Pros:

A lot of redlight business going on there. The management is apparently involved in it.
If you want to sleep at night or on a business trip really the wrong place.
The environment is dirty. Room not cleaned, or cleaned with a dry toilet brush, the same as for the toilet. Never again. Hotel with brothel included.

Convenient
Pros:

It takes approx. 15 minutes walk from Kecun Metro D Exit to hotel. The advantage of hotel: offers free shuttle bus from hotel to Canton Fair and reverse. The breakfast is okay, but the seats are limited.There's a local market nearby the hotel and looks dirty all around.

Nice massage
Pros:

Am staying at the royal garden hotel for the canton fair. Went to the spa as it can difficult to find trustworthy ones in Guangzhou. We chose the 238 RMB 90 minute oil massage and were asked to pay 248 RMB which was fine (about $50 AUD) the spa is actually much bigger than expected with many rooms. Nothing too special about the rooms but we’re given a tea and slice of watermelon. A fresh pair of shorts and wrap top came out of their own plastic bag. Ladies we’re pleasant and I asked to be a little more gentle and they helped to translate what we requested on their phone. It was more of a transitional Chinese massage than a luxurious Swedish one (which was what I expected anyway, I wasn’t at a 5 star hotel!) it was a nice massage and met my expectations for the price. But don’t think your getting a luxury experience and you’ll enjoy yourself :) all in all a nice, decent priced massage in a clean room with nice staff.

교통편이나 아침식사 그리고 룸의 크기등은 아주 좋았어요. 그런데 방에서 바퀴벌레가 나와서 기겁을 했습니다. 룸관리에 신경을 써야 할 것 같습니다.

This is great little hotel in a convenient location and walking distance to the river, tram line and tower. With the local markets just behind the hotel we had some yummy dumplings and great to walk thru and see the local produce and people, and wonderful massage shops close by.

Pros:

The hotel can make or break your trip, This hotel has been excellent and exceeded my expectations in every aspect, few things may need improvement such as the musty smell of the room from the humidity but once you turn on the AC it will dehumidify the room and it becomes better, AC needs to be on all the time.

We really liked the Canton fair shuttle to go there, it was convenient. but coming back was a huge hassle as we never found the parking spot of the bus, but that is not the hotel's fault though.

The location is Excellent, 10 minutes walk to the Pazhou subway station, the area was amazing as it gives you the opportunity to experience how people really live in China.

The food/ complimentary breakfast, was very good, food in China was a real problem ( we cannot find good places to eat) but a good reliable start in the morning was soo helpful.

The room itself is a little on the outdated side, but still clean for China's standards, Many plugs in the room on 2 levels and it fits standard american plugs and USB.

Finally, the router is inside each duplex, which was amazing since you get a good signal all the time, I just wish it was password protected as it was a security issue, a VPN is highly recommended for both security and accessibility of google.

Staff were great for the most part, many did not speak English well -google translate helped- however many staff DID speak English very well.

I highly recommend this hotel!

Shocking experience!!
Pros:

I had a terrible experience in this hotel last week. There was a very drunk Brazilian man who was ranting away with racist remarks 9am on a Sunday morning in the hotel lobby. I was passing by the front reception counter and was shock he came after me. He kept hurling racist remarks and wanted to pick a fight on me. I tried to calm down. I pleaded with the staff in the reception counter to help me call security or the police. They ignored me and finally i was hit in the face by this man and he ran away. My Chinese colleagues came down and gave chase and caught this man in the road. I was also informed by another hotel guest that this man also created a scene 2 days earlier. I asked the front desk that i wanted to see the manager but they he was off duty! My advice to foreigners, stay away from this hotel. You dont want to be in a hotel were the hotel staff do nothing for your protection. It was shocking!
