Hotels near Huaisheng Mosque

We stayed for the 2nd time at garden hotel for canton fair. Usually local hotel is crappy in service even though they put 5 star hotels. But, Garden 5 star hotels equal to Sofitel Hotel. GREAT. The room are spacious, the lighting is great and water pressure is fantastic too. Also, the cleanliness are great. we try some restaurants in the hotel such as the 30th floor and Japanese restaurant on 2nd floors. The Japanese restaurant are great and must try when you are staying here. reasonable prices and great portion and most important: great taste. During canton fair, they provide hotel-fair shuttle and they were really nice too in providing sandwich and water before boarding the bus... nice attention to customers.. also, when we are boarding back from the fair, we are given water too... nice touch. Also, do not forget to utilize the canton fair promotion of buying RMB1000 credit for just RMB500. Great value..

Wow, so first I'm a 50yo traveller who spends a lot of time in upmarket hotels. I'm not easily impressed, and prefer niche brands like Banyan Tree over the Hyatt/Hilton larger market brands. Add to that, my expectations of Guangzhou were a little trepidatious. So imagine our surprise when we found such a luxery hotel, with simply the best bed I have ever slept in, and the most diverse and extravagant breakfast I have seen anywhere incl Thailand holiday resorts (well done to F&B manager Adam). Seriously, DO NOT SKIP BREAKFAST! Concierge staff were definitely helpful (you need that in China!), and checkin/out was very efficient too. All round, 5/5 on every dimension.

The hotel was nice and lobby looked modern and impressive, nice that it's directly attached to the (very upscale) mall. Rooms were decent size but could be updated a bit. Very disappointed with the toiletries, just the cheap dispenser of all in 1 shampoo/conditioner/face wash that 2 star hotels put in the shower to save on money. I would expect much better from a "5 star" hotel. Also the shower was terrible, fluctuated from freezing to boiling. There were nice bathrobes and slippers though. Service was good, front desk staff spoke very good english, decent middle eastern restaurant very close (and reasonable). Nightlife, restaurants and shopping close by and right by the subway station so easy to get to. I would definitely recommend the hotel but if you're expecting 5 star - I would go somewhere else. I would say it's more of a 3.5 to 4.

The hotel is actually called Ying Shang Hotel instead of Insails Hotel. It is situated about 500metre from Ximenkuo subway station. For the Muslims, there is Huaisheng Mosque about 1km from the hotel and infront of the hotel there is just 1 halal restaurant served by the Uighur muslims. Hotel room has no window and the wifi connection was lagging. They do not provide international socket in the room so you need to get either international adaptor or the china's 2pin flat adaptor to charge all your electronic devices. During check in, front desk staff look and sound unfriendly, after 3 nights of the stay she was slightly friendly. Overall stay was acceptable even though it was not excellent. I might be back again.

Considering that most hotel rooms in nearby Hong Kong are high-cost tiny cubicles, the prices at Yingbin are stunningly low. It's a 5-star hotel in elegant facilities and accoutrements. Our room was huge -- about 325 sq ft. All the finishings were in marble, with updated bathrooms. Very comfortable and huge bed. Excellent location -- we were able to walk easily to Beijing Road, and the historical areas of Liwan -- not to mention falling out of the hotel into shoping, shopping, shopping and eating, eating, eating: both the specialities of Guangzhou. It also has the tremendous convenience in its compound (lovely, by the way) of an bus service hourly to Hong Kong-Kowloon and Hong Kong airport (saving the traveler the schlepp back to the train station and then further transport to HK airport). Compare the price of this formerly government hotel for high-level guests to international chains -- it's less than a quarter of their prices! For us, the place was excellent.

have stayed here on many occassions, great grand spacious hotel and only a $5 cab fare anywhere in gaungzhou close to all shopping.taxis all know this place. 5 stars at 4 star prices lots of western food places within walking distance and a massive new supermarket(aust/us style)and best of all the coffee club first one in china just around the corner. rooms have free fast wifi and lobby has free wifi, great bar, awesome full service massage/spa. plus many more pluses. best of all the staff actually remember you and genually happy to see you again...

Stayed here a year ago and left a rather negative review on booking.com but its so much better now! Friendly staff, great service! Although, I’d recommend asking front desk to call a cab and not the security guard because he ended up flagging which was what we could’ve done. But still a very good and comfortable place to stay. Near to Ximenkou station and tons of halal food nearby! A few minutes walk to Huaisheng Mosque. Really happy the friendly security guard got promoted. So, so happy for him. Kudos!!

Pros: 1. The location of the hotel is great. Its very centralized with loads of eateries around it. 2. The theme of the hotel is cool, together with its various deco, all of which blend in nicely. 3. The staffs were friendly. The bell boys were quick to help with our luggage every time we alight from the taxi. 4. Its very easy to get hold of a taxi there compared to the last hotel I stayed, which is Joven Star Hotel. 5. The room was clean and tidied up nicely the next day. 6. For this price, you probably have to pay at least 30% more for other hotel. 7. A 24-hour mart is just next door on the right of the hotel. 8. The Macau restaurant on the right too (level 2) offers nice food at value for money prices. Do ask for the set meal menu for bangs on your bucks! 9. Every cabby seemed to know this hotel compared to the last two I have stayed where the drivers had to scratch their head hard to figure out where they were! I heard from one of the cabbies that this hotel is more than 20 years old and well-know around GZ. 10. The WI-FI in the room is an absolute +++ point of the hotel! 11. Need I say more? Cons: 1. The “mini” supermarket offers little goods and essentials. 2. The saloon looks doggy and old. 3. The TV in the room is very small. 16” for that room size! 4. The safe box is extremely hard to figure out how to use it. Took me 20mins!!! (tip: after step 1 which is to ‘activate” the safe, step 2 is to lock the safe before step 3 which is to key in the password! Weird!!!)

Pros: 1) Clean towels and clean sheets 2) Personal caring items are equipped 3) The female counter staff who works at the 12am shift speaks good English 4) Trendy decorations - a fusion of contemporary western art and traditcanton style decors. 5) Impressive toilet setting Cons: 1) Although I knew this is one of those boutique hotels, the setting of the queen room with windows can be rearranged better. The Queen Bed is placed in the middle of the room which leaves a 15cm gap between the rear end and the wall which a TV is also mounted. It means every time when u need to walk from one side of the room to the other (the desk and toilet, for example), you need to bend over and squeeze through the gap between the bed and wall. Well, inconvenient setting. 2) Thin walls. 3) While the background music in the corridors boosts up the ambience a bit, it is rather annoying cos the walls are so thin that you can hear the ding dong sounds throughout the night.

Like everywhere in China since this hotel, we couldn't get online on our Mac laptop. The staff, but for one or two, had (almost) no English, but tried their best to help. Much depends on staff rosters as to when you get an English speaker. They provide a map on their website as to how to get there from the Main Railway Station, but if coming from Guangzhou East, it's best by far to get the Line 1 train to Ximenkou, exit D, turn right and at the major intersection nearby follow the pavement right again. The New World Hotel is 5 minutes or less up that road on that side. Do not deviate!

The hotel was easy to get to from Guanzhou East train Station where we arrived form HK. The staff was very courteous and helpful and offered the option to upgrade to a Suite as the apartment we had requested was only available on the smoking floor. The best thing about the hotel is the staff-- Many spoke good english,were pleasant and took initiative to recommending places to visit and arrange taxis etc. Room service was prompt and the lunch in the cafe was very good. The room interiors felt a little aged and dull.

We were offered fruit platter on arrival after going to two hotels previously with one booked in processing status though agoda but no rooms was available and the other hotel said they are not connected to booking.com the partner of agoda anymore and require around 150-300+CNY more on top of the booking price due to the high demand of rooms in the area although a confirmation was given. We were most relieved later on (3hours+wasted upon leaving the train from Guangzhou East) as I called the counter of Crowne Plaza the second time that they finally found my booking as they said on the first call the reference number does not belong to them. Anyways thanks for the hotel's services and the room was even quipped with Chinese tea pots beautifully presented and a spectacular view for guests with club benefits if you pay slightly higher prices for it. Joined their membership hence welcome vouchers were distributed to us and we had a relaxed time and enjoyed the countdown-evening in room.

The Hotel had everything we needed! Staff were friendly and helpful and one lady manager in particular spoke excellent English and was extremely helpful in answering any questions we had regarding places to go and how to get there ! A big thank you to her! Unfortunately I've forgotten her name! The hotel is walking distance to 2 metro stations and there are a lot of different eateries close by as well as convenience stores. All in all I would recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Guangzhou ! Just be aware that although it says on most booking sites it has a pool it doesn't!

I had a very pleasant and relaxed stay at this hotel. Breakfast was very good too. All of their staffs were friendly and especially Sandy, the manager, was a very talented and helpful for her guests. She kept checking with me if all was okay with my stays and tried to provide the best service as much as possible. The facilities and amenities are pretty satisfactory. They have a small van that offers a free travel between the hotel and the Canton fair. However, keep in mind that the seat is limited (up to 6 ppl or so) so it can be fully booked quickly. You better check the availability with the hotel in advance. The only downside of this hotel for me was the location. It has a beautiful view of the Pearl River but is located on the busy street. They have a night club across the street so it can be a bit noisy at night - even thought it didn't really bother me when I was sleeping. If you like nightlife, this may be good for you. Overall, this hotel was a very nice to stay. I loved this small boutique hotel and will probably stay again in my next trip!

This hotel is definetly value for money as it is probably the cheapest 4 star hotel in the district. Breakfast is cheap at 60rmb and the scenary is very relaxing and peaceful. Rooms are comfortable however,the only downfall is that the TV needs to be plasma and more english channels required. The hotel has many social facilities that one may indulge in and enjoy. Have stayed there previously and will stay there again in the future.

I stayed in this hotel for the canton fair from 17th - 19th april. The hotel provided free shuttle bus service from & to the fair. THis was great as it saved alot of time for taxi which is impossible to get after 4.30pm. Eventually we saved few hundred rmb on taxi alone. I had booked the River view standard which was great indeed. The view from the room was plesant at night time once all the lighting comes on. Very very relaxing. Also, Beijing Lu is jus 5 mins walk from the hotel , river was stones throw away & the Canton tv tower was approx 10-15mins taxi ride . The rooms were gd , breakfast was ok. As it was during the canton fair period so we had to pay 2.5times more of the actual cost. Recommended hotel for canton fair visit during morning time and city tour at night. Serves dual purpose.

I got a room for $28 or so on Agoda. Was beyond any expectations. Was very clean, comfortable. Very nice to have free bottles of water to drink. Shower was fine. Had the best dumplings of my life at the Dim Sum/Tea restaurant on the 5th floor. Also a massage place on the 6th floor (I forget if that's the 6th but you can ask). And, a Starbucks on the 1st floor! What more to ask for. The Hotel staff kindly let me leave my luggage at the Hotel for a night for free when I went out of town. Overall, recommend!

If you are looking a excellent hotel strategically located near metro, attractions, public transportation, shopping centers, street food and restaurants. There is also 24 hour convenience marts and street food around the corner. This hotel is a great place to rest and refresh after a day tour around the city and embark on a new adventure the next day. If you are a stay in the hotel all day guest to enjoy the pool, gym or hotel spa you won't find it in this hotel. There is also no hotel parking. There is a paid parking bay a few buildings down the block.

personally, it was very convenient to what i was doing in guangzhou. the hotel is new and the staff is still getting some of the service kinks out. they had a little trouble cancelling my credit card hold, and since my mandarin is virtually non-existant communication was difficult. this is a very chinese hotel, i did not see another western face during my stay. if you can deal with that, this is a great hotel for you. i would stay there again. the japanese toilets were an "out of control" feature.

I have enjoyed my stay at Paco Hotel, despite some confusion. The hotel is not located on Dongfeng Road, but it is in the center. The walk to the underground took me 10 min., and you can easily get a taxi just up the road from the hotel. I liked the design of my room, and it was very clean, laundry service was ok, they brought my clothes back later than it said on the sheet, but the clothes is clean and pressed, so the job is done. The staff was very attentive and nice, they helped me a great bit and were very polite. The bed was very comfortable, shower cabinet large and very clean. I had everything I needed in the room: a desk with desk light, fast internet (wifi), a wardrobe, hairdryer, a safe, a fridge, bathing robe (that was changed daily) and a TV (didn't really need that). I would definitely recommend this hotel, but don't take breakfast, the hotel does not serve breakfast, they give a voucher for burger king breakfast around the corner. As for the surroundings, there are many small Chinese shops around the hotel, including fruit shops, there is a Mexican restaurant around the corner and a burger king. 2-3 min walk away you can find a nice sushi restaurant, a pleasant caffe and a pizza hut (don't go there, food is bad). near to the underground there is a shopping mall, and another one (central plaza) 7 min walk away.

We have been here numerous stays over a span of 4 years. The hotel has us coming back with good hospitality and a well maintained hotel. The wear and tear is almost non visible! The breakfast spread is simple but still very good though I would say it has improved this year with a healthier spread and a neater more welcoming eating space. The train station is just opposite the main road with access to Line 5 and 6. They leave extra bottles of drinking water outside the hallway. Nothing huge but nothing I have not seen in other hotels either. Kudos to the hotel. Staff is also very helpful in helping with suggetions or directions. My last stay a big plus for giving us a free room upgrade and complimentary breakfast. Thanks Paco Hotel. Much appreciated and we look forward to more stays with you.

Halal restaurant at 2nd floor (Turkish Restaurant) Chinese halal muslim restaurant just 5 minutes walk in front of the hotel buildings 4 minutes walk to Xiaobei metro station (underground light transit train) -most important thing to consider- 5 minutes train (1 stop) to Mosque 5 minutes walk to Halal groceries. Qibla sign in room. Great hospitalities, helpful receptionist and manager. clean, comfort, and peaceful room. toilet with pipe hose (giler enko nak selet2 lepas membuang)..muslims really love this! i’ll stay again for sure! best ever hotel for muslim!

my stays at the king garden go back four years. management used a lot of trainees at the front desk, but they now have professional supervision and enough english to get by for english speakers. the b building has the more attractive rooms and public space the a building is the best value in town. with an agoida discount the b building is value for money. buffet breakfast is copious, gym is a bonus. the hotel restaurant is among the better cantonese cuisines in town. maintenance remains a weak point. safes usually need battery replacement. hand shower work but overhead shower is nonfunctional in many rooms. after four years you'd think someone would fix them. house staff are helpful though without english. setting, value, amenities are all plusses.
