Cheap price for family of 4
The hotel had a slight smell of smoke especially in the room. I felt a little ill at times bc of it. The restaurant was nothing to write home about. We got to the buffet around 9:30am and food was cold. It said the hotel was international but I didn't find it to be international at all. Local hotel that catered to locals. 20 minutes from airport, 35 minutes from train station. Only 1 person spoke English and it wasn't that good.

Bad Hotel
This hotel is terrible. It has roaches. The staff members do not speak English, so non-Mandarin speakers should not stay here. Every time we asked a question, one of the ladies at the front desk kept laughing. We saw roaches in our room, and immediately went to the front desk to express our concern. They offered to move us to another room, and we saw another roach. Do not stay here. There are cigarettes on the floors throughout the hotel; people put the cigarettes out and leave them on the carpet and in the elevator.

nice hotel a bit away from central baiyun
My stay here started of well its a nicely furnished hotel, the staff where nice and try there best with the english they know which is limited, but google translate is your friend in this scenario. I stayed here for 10 days and towards the end requested to get a small single load of laundry done e.g. t-shirts underwear which i was not given a price for, and upon receiving them was charged about double the price i should have been charged in china. when i refused to pay i was harassed in my room by the laundry staff who refused to leave on 3 occasions at 11 pm at night and could not get the hotel manager to address the situation as he was not there at all during my stay . I was offered 20% off in the end. Generally speaking the hotel was ok my room was quiet and the bed was nice my main requirements

Good for a Chinese hotel
This was good for a Chinese hotel - western toilets and air conditioning. In the room I was in the wallpaper was falling down, the carpet looked fair. There were things we had to figure out on our own. For instance, the AC won't work unless a switch was in the on position by the door. We spent quite a while fooling with the AC controls on the wall before discovering none of that mattered unless the switch was on. No western options for breakfast. No one at the front desk spoke English, but they would usually be able to find a guest who spoke English and Chinese to translate for me. If you've spent time in China, this hotel will be fine for you and reasonable priced. If you've never been to China, you might want to pay more and stay at a newer hotel that is a western chain hotel (Sheraton or Marriott, etc.).

It's a beautiful hotel,big,clean & grand but on level 7 it was smoky around dinner time. A lot of people was smoking just beside the lift. About 17 mins to airport.

My Stay @ OUBON International Hotel
Very excellent facility to stay at. House keeping was great, always provided with what I needed. Provided free breakfast each morning, and room service, and message therapy available on site. Great place to stay at.

BAD LOCATION FOR CANTON FAIR
The distance of this hotel from the Canton Fair is wrongly stated in most websites... Its very far from Canton Fair, though u get a hotel shuttle to the fair which reaches you in about 50 mins. Everything except the location was 5*... beyond expectation... you wont get veg food around... room was very big and spacious... the staff was also good.

So So Hotel...not where the map indicated
Arrived in Guangzhou by train late at night. Transfer by taxi from station to hotel should have been 5 mins. Instead I spent over an hour in a taxi looking for a hotel that is more than 20 km away from where Expedia position it! This made the entire stay hard work. Thinking I was stupid, I met 2 Australian and one American the following morning in the lobby, all of whom made a booking based on locality and proximity to Pazhou, only to find it was an hour away in traffic. Diabolical.

Cheap and nice
Stayed at the Oubon for the canton fair. Hotel was great and the staff friendly. The only issue i had was that the map location for the hotel is well out. Hotel is north west of the city so close to the airport but a long way from down town. This being said the area around the hotel had plenty of "local" places to eat, felt safe and everyone that i encounter was friendly.

its nice new & clean hotel,
Its about 15 mins drive from airport and the hotel is situated very close to a KFC, bank, shoping malls, shops & night bazars where people are always bustling....but a minor draw back is its sitauted a bit far from canton fair and it takes 92 RMB just to go to canton fair but the good thing is that the hotel has its own bus service which shuttles people from & to canton fair and back....

Hotels.com上的地图是错的。导致错订了不合适的酒店,位置极差。
离市区远,交通不便,两个字:闹心!
