For this business trip to Guangzhou, I chose Jianguo Hotel Guangzhou next to Guangzhou East Station. Originally, I only wanted it to be close to the high-speed railway station, so that I could stay without any trouble after getting off the high-speed railway. However, I didn't expect to be immediately attracted by it after staying - in the busiest core area of Tianhe, I can not only enjoy the convenience of travel, but also feel the hustle and bustle of Guangzhou. The experience of this trip is fully filled.
Get out of Guangzhou East Station and walk for ten minutes to reach the hotel, without having to drag your luggage around the subway station. At the moment of entering, the exhaustion of the journey was relieved. As an old five-star foreign-related hotel, the lobby has no overly fancy decorations, and the calm and atmospheric style is full of appropriateness. The check-in process at the front desk was very fast. Knowing that I was coming to Guangzhou for the first time, I proactively handed over a hand drawn map of the surrounding cuisine, circled the authentic morning tea shops and Laoguang Sugar and Water Shop nearby with a red pen, and even reminded me of the opening time of the hotel buffet breakfast, saying, "Come at 7:30, shrimp dumplings and shaomai are just steamed.
The view of the room on the high floor I booked is particularly good. The french window is facing the direction of Tianhe Sports Center. In the evening, you can see the people running at night in the stadium. The CBD lights in the distance slowly light up. The room is much more spacious than hotels in the same price range, and the high count cotton bedding is soft, which can relieve the exhaustion of rushing in just a few minutes. The sound insulation of the whole house is particularly well done, and when the door is closed, there is no sound of traffic from the east station downstairs. Even if you stay up late the day before the early flight to change the plan, you can still sleep soundly. The most considerate feature is that the desk is equipped with a high-definition projection interface, which ensures smooth online meetings and project planning without any lag, making it particularly friendly to business travelers.
The buffet breakfast in the hotel is the epitome of Cantonese cuisine. The steamed shrimp dumpling has a thin skin and a large filling. You can taste the whole fresh shrimp when you bite it, and the Congee is cooked densely, soft and glutinous. With the newly fried deep-fried dough sticks, you can taste the authentic Cantonese flavor. In addition to local specialties, there is also a wide range of coffee, salad, and Western style baked goods. Even if you are not used to Cantonese morning tea, you can find a suitable choice. After breakfast, you can go downstairs and walk for five minutes to Tianhe Sports Center. In the morning, you can run two laps along the track and meet many people who do morning exercises. Even in the wind, the smell of Dim sum wafts from the nearby tea house.
The most outstanding feature is its location advantage. It takes only ten minutes to walk to Linhexi subway station and three stops to directly reach Tianhe Sports West business district. There are also numerous internet famous shops and time-honored restaurants in the surrounding area, making it easy to stroll and play. It takes 20 minutes to take the subway to the Pearl River New City and Guangzhou Tower. Even if you go to Baiyun Airport, you can quickly arrive from Guangzhou East Railway Station to Line 3, without wasting time in the evening rush hour. There is a 24-hour convenience store downstairs. You can also buy hot Congee and sugared water after working late at night without waiting for takeout for half a day.
In the past, when I came to Guangzhou for business trips, I always wasted a lot of time commuting. However, this time when I stayed at Jianguo Hotel Guangzhou, I realized that by choosing the right place to stay, I can easily catch the convenience and fireworks of Guangzhou without having to do complex strategies. Next time I come to Guangzhou, I will definitely choose this place again.Show more
