Cool Location”

Clean, reasonably priced hotel located in an old warehouse district. Many of the old buildings have been turned into F&B establishments and bars, including the very cool Taikoo waterfront. Minor quibbles - it is not very near to the subway (~15mins walk) which is not great in the rainy season, and also the rooms have no fridge.

Another visit still happy”

staff helpfull, rooms big and clean,bathroom top quality

I have now stayed in this hotel many times in the last three years and always find it a satisfying experience. Front desk always has at least one English speaker. My Agoda bookings are always found and honoured without trying added extras. Wifi in my room without cost,quiet location and atmosphere, the wharf around the corner has food and drink into early morning.Taxis know the address without having to look it up. My last stay I even received a room upgrade which was a nice feeling although I didnt need the extra room and TV, desk,lounge mini bar etc as I come for work not play and the bedroom was big enough with desk, internet and wifi for me to work and be able to open my three large bags without having to put them on the bed or walk over them on the floor. The bed is big and comfortable, linen and towels clean and in good condition, bathroom great with quick hot water with toiletries provided. So long as the tarrif remains the same I will book myself and my staff there again. The staff are helpful when asked for something and always have a smile and greeting in passing.

Not for the western business traveler”

The hotel is clean, staff friendly and helpful. A few staff could speak good english. The breakfeast buffet had a nice mix of Asian and Western food, along with fruits, bread, and excellent fresh brewed coffee. The bad.... anything related to the internet, forget about it. The internet is slower tha dial-up. Forget downloading documents. Forget about using Skype. Anything Google related is blocked, but many other sites are blocked as well. Most major Western hotel chains in the city don't have the above mentioned issues. The beds are straight up Asian style... like a slab of concrete. The rooms are clean and decorated well. Well, not as nice as the Western chain hotels, but nice. For the Western business traveler, stay at the Westin.

The hotel is well located, "close" to the metro -10/12 minute walk. Staff is not very friendly but effective. Food is absolutely terrible, I never had such a disgusting breakfast. Beds were very comfortable. Bathroom is surprisingly nice for a mid-range hotel like this one, with a nice rain shower. No fridge. Air con in chinese which makes it impossible to operate, so temp was stuck at 26C. Overall, OK.

Gondola Taikoo Hotel Guangzhou experience”

I like the centralised location of the hotel, the accessibility of nearby shops and restaurants, and ease of bus transport.

We were given the superior twin room that has wifi. But the wifi was weak and most of the time I was not able to access the server even though it was connected to my cellphone and laptop. The staff at the reception refused to give me a LAN cable and insisted that resetting the wifi will work. The drainage in the shower was choked and the toilet floor was flooded despite my complaints. The shower head broke and the toilet flush was not working, but they rectify the problems immediately. The housekeeper was discreet and pleasant.
