We spent 7 nights at Mercure/Sofitel in Xian and had a truly wonderful experience, very largely as a result of the smiling and very helpful locally engaged staff, who all had a good understanding of English. Whilst Guangzhou Sofitel is sumptuous and beautifully furnished, the locally engaged staff do not measure up to the high standard of the Xian staff.... More

A great hotel to stay at while visiting the Canton Fair. Try the red Mini chauffeur service from the airport. Check was very quick, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful More

This Sofitel is truly exquisite. Sofitels pride themselves on their "Life is Magnifique", but that is an understatement for this property. My brief stay there was in keeping with the true spirit of luxury for which Sofitels have come to be renowned. The location is excellent, close to both the CBD and the East Railway Station, the property is immaculately... More

The room we were given contained a single king bed and we were provided with a baby bed (not a porta-cot, an actual bed with... More

Beautiful new hotel in the TianHe District (but consider the Sheraton and Marriott (though the Four Seasons and Mandarin Oriental will also be joining the ranks soon), both of which are newer and more centrally located for shopping and metro access). If you are non-Asian, you will find possibly more English speaking staffs here to cater to you, and if... More

Very well located, excellent for business travel. The restaurant was very good, and the fit out modern. More

I just completed my first stay during the May 2012 Canton Fair. The room was great, internet speed was superb, and the staff were all excellent. I got a nasty cold during my stay. The main Chef, Remco Vaatstra, took the time to make a special cold remedy for me; boiled coke and ginger. I know it sounds weird but... More
