The hotel offers a comfortable stay with clean rooms, and the staff were genuinely friendly and attentive. The location is quite decent, being a short distance from the city center and near the Canton Fair. However, I was a bit disappointed with the dining options, especially at breakfast, which didn't quite meet my expectations. Overall, it's a good value for money, but there are some areas that could use improvement.

I stayed at the Chateau Star River Hotel in Guangzhou and, while I enjoyed some aspects like the spacious rooms and the overall comfort, I was disappointed by the service and the location. The rooms were clean and nicely equipped, but the staff seemed poorly trained and could have been more attentive. The location was not ideal, being a bit far from the city center, which required a lengthy taxi ride. Dining options were decent but somewhat on the pricier side, given the limited choices provided.

Overall, this hotel has its ups and downs. The location leaves much to be desired, making it a bit of a hassle to get downtown. On the bright side, the staff were very friendly and went out of their way to help me when I faced some difficulties.

Overall, my stay at the hotel during the Canton Fair was a mixed experience. I truly enjoyed the view overlooking the Pearl River from my room, and the staff's friendliness was a highlight of my visit.

The location was convenient for the fair, but a bit far from downtown, which could be a drawback for some.
