dustyone Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I stayed at the white swan it was nice and not bad price Link to comment
MRMC Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I here that the Shamian is clean and reasonable. A little less than Victory and much less than the White Swan. Link to comment
johnxiaoying Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 We stayed at the Victory, fairly good western breakfast goes with the room. Link to comment
Trigg Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I'm a fan of the victory. Not as nice as the Swan but a lot cheaper. Link to comment
Feathers268 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I'm a fan of the victory. Not as nice as the Swan but a lot cheaper.Cheap is good, very good. When people are talking cheap what is your meaninig? When I stayed in Kunshan cheap meant 200 yuan per night. Quality was that of say travelodge, room, fridge, tv,hot water for tea, even complementary tooth brush and breakfast.. Link to comment
oregonknl Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 In my opinion, White Swan is clearly the way to go, maybe the best in China, certainly the best in Guangzhou.... And it offers that rare opportunity (if booked right on line) to get a genuine 5 star hote for under $100.00 per night... But of course, priorities are different for different times.. This last time (Dec.) Fei and I stayed at the Silver Bay Bailing Hotel --- great views of the Pearl River, totally up dated rooms and baths---lots of marble ... 5 min cab ride to the Consulate, and on the edge of old Guangzhou great walking streets... Draw back is this hotel sees few westerners --- (even to visit the brothel on the 3rd. floor) so the counter staff speak no English, really--- but if you're with your SO, no problem.. Bailing is less expensive than the Victory.... Link to comment
Trigg Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 this hotel sees westerners to visit the brothel on the 3rd. floor) if you're with your SO, no problem.. ....HUH!!!! Brothel, SO, no problem??? HUH!! Link to comment
oregonknl Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Trigg, we discovered it by accident.... Someone on the elevator pushed 3 but chickened out and got off at 2 .... ....so the door opens on 3, and there is this guy, sitting around in front of a reception desk, reading a porn mag, and looking bored ... who suddenly jumps up with his best: "hi! come-on in! what do you want??? No pause for the now blushing Fei, so I jokingly try to pull her out of the elevator, and get major pistol whipped!! (fortunately, she didn't actually have a pistol....) Guy starts laughing, so do I, while Fei pushes the "close doors" button, and I'm lucky to still have both arms.... BTW Trigg, brothel at the Victory is in the basement ........ as if you didn't know...... Link to comment
