Huaweida Hotel

Huaweida is a lovely hotel. Its bedroom is big and comfortable. It is also located in Tianhe commercial/shopping district so it is rather convenient if you're looking for malls and restaurants. Some of the receptionists also understand little English (quite a good standard for a local Chinese hotel) Go to the rear entrance of the hotel and you can find small restaurants, small shops and also a Tomato convenience store across the street. The hotel does not provide you with mineral water, so it's rather convenient to know that there is a minimarket just across the street. Cons: The bathroom is rather small. The hotel is not located near any MTR station ... so you have to find a taxi to go anywhere unless you are familiar with Guangzhou bus system. It's not hard to find a taxi in front of the hotel because you will find one in a few seconds. But it is HARD to find an empty taxi during rush hour (8-10am and 16-18pm). I had to wait for one hour to find a taxi before I finally decided to take an illegal transportation to travel in rush hour. It is almost impossible to find any available taxi during those hour. So you better prepare yourself. Overall I'm quite satisfied with Huaweida ... but just remember to not travel during rush hour because you will stuck for hours just to find a taxi to go back to or from the hotel.
