White Swan is my #1 choice whenever I visit the Canton Fairs (both the Spring and the Autumn Shows). The hotel provides a free shuttle and boat ride to the exhibition hall directly daily during the fairs. The meal options during the fair have been nothing but extraordinary! The hotel staff, as well as their service, are superb as well! I highly recommend this hotel to all the visitors to Canton, both on business and for personal leisure.

The White Swan hotel has upgraded and renovated over the last few years and the result is amazing: an elegantly designed, professionally and warmly run hotel, filled with art in the halls and lobby, with delicious buffet or a la carte breakfasts and other meals. There is also a tasteful bar with night views of the city across the river and a lovely outdoor swimming pool and hot tub. Beautiful rooms feature great city or river views and super comfortable beds and bedding made for great rest between outings in this huge bustling city. The hotel’s location between the river and the old European quarters called the Shamian district, brings history and contemporary life together. This area is beautifully landscaped, and is filled with cafés and shops and bronze sculptures of daily life and leisure for children and adults. I look forward to returning. The only recommendation I have is that the front desk staff should know what a cultural treasure of international quality the modern museum right across the river is and have information, especially for foreign guests, about the small ferry from Ma Tou - a five minute walk from the hotel’s 1st floor entrance - which, for 2 yuan, takes one right across the river to the museum (which is three museums on one). Thank you, White Swan’s excellent staff, from bellboys and concierge, to front desk and restaurant staff and housekeeping.

We arrived at 8 in the morning because of an early flight and expected to just leave our baggage. In fact they let us have our room early which was fantastic. I’m sure the rooms at the back are great but the river room we had has such a spectacular view that it was worth paying the extra.

I've had a wonderful stay at White Swan Hotel. The hotel is clean, comfortable, has great amenities, and the staff is friendly. The location is also amazing. The hotel's foods are excellent, and the views from the room are great. Tried couple other five stars hotel in Guangzhou but always wanted to come back to white swan, I guess this is the only hotel on my Guangzhou list from now on.

it’s still the same issue. dining room staff need to be trained to compete with other fine dining restaurant. Had dinner at the jade river restaurant and tried the tasting menu and wasn’t too impressed. staff needed to be told to change the plates. very friendly but need to be more attentive. comparing with the fine dinner I had at the Grand Hyatt, jade river’s food and service and way way behind
