I had a fantastic stay on Christmas Eve and even had a Christmas buffet on Christmas day there which was varied and included everything I could have wanted! Easy if you don't speak Chinese within the hotel, good luck if you leave!
"Clean and Calm"
lovely, clean and calm after the business of Guangzhou.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Always a good experience"
Friendly helpfull staff, good food and very comfortable, clean room. I have stayed in both the east and west wings on a number of occasions over the last 3 years and would not rush to stay anywhere else. The hotel is well positioned on the Pearl river with plenty of good restaurants near by and good shopping a short stroll away.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Lovely location"
A quiet and easy location for Guangzhou and definitely a haven away from the busyness and traffic of Guangzhou city. We stayed in the East building and it is safe and pretty at night strolling on the island and along the pearl river near by. The hotel is close to the metro which is easy to use and you could always catch a taxi from there.The hotel staff […] were friendly and could communicate in English. The room service was almost immediate and we felt well looked after but left alone. The breakfast was fine with plenty of choices both Asian and European. All in all I would recommend the Victory to anyone needing a quiet and comfortable stay in Guangzhou. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Victory?? More like Defeated!!!"
I stayed in the west wing March 2012 because the reviews on Expedia seemed good about this hotel however i got a bit of shock when i arrived if im honest. The room wasnt very clean, wallpaper peeling, cracks in ceiling, window dirty, carpet stained and smelt, furniture chipped and I could not get a signal for the free hotel wifi unless in the lobby. However, […] the breakfast was ok, location of hotel was good and staff were friendly. I would say this hotel is just about 3 star but a poor one at that. The bottom line was that the room just seemed dirty and not clean. I would not stay here again. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Guangdong Victory Hotel - Nice neighbourhood"
Location is good. Nice and quiet hotel. Pleasant Neighbourhood. I stayed in the West Wing and the standard room is extremely small. Toilet is newly renovated but furniture is old. I was told that the East Wing room is larger and nicer. The service staff were helpful and overall I would stay I had a nice and pleasant stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Almost Perfect"
I have no regrets to recommend this hotel for everyone who plans to Guangzhou for leisure travel. The room, washroom, breakfast and service are better than my expected. I stayed two nights at the executive room of its West Wing. The room is well renovated and its washroom is really large and clean. Its complimentary breakfast buffet are free and delicious. […] And the hotel gave us an afternoon tea/coffee with cookies voucher every day to enjoy (FREE). Only 10 minutes walk to Chinese massage shop with have Chinese Herbal Doctoring service. Only 10 minutes taxi to every famous shopping street and other parks. The only weakness is its location is quite far away (nearly 25 mintues of taxi distance) from the Guangzhou East Train station with expensive hotel car service (about 200RMB each way). But you can simply to take a taxi (around 45-50 RMB per way). Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good Location but Confusing Hotel"
I love Shamian Island, where Guangdong Victory is located, with it's artistic and art deco buildings. So very different from the rest of Guangzhou. Unfortunately, can't say the same of Guangdong Victory's service. First of, it a bit confusing re their East and West wing. Then they have various room categories to deal with that you won't be able to […] make rhyme or reason out of. We had the Business Executive Suite. I requested for a non smoking room with a king sized bed. At least they got the non smoking right. As for the king sized bed, if what we got was a king sized bed, then I must be a giant!!! (I'm actually just 5 feet 6 inches tall) Worst part came when I brother-in-law and his wife decided to join us on this trip. I booked another room a couple of days later and got the same price. However, when we arrived to check in, we were informed that my bro in law's room is on the West Wing which is the smoking wing, despite my non smoking king sized bed request. We complained and showed our booking forms and the front desk staff, after passing us around from staff member to staff member finally got around to explain that both bookings, mine and my bro in law's, were done on separate days and that mine had a "promo" upgrade to the East Wing (non smoking) while my bro in law's didn't hence they will have to stay in a smoking room. After much argument, then the objective became evident, to be "upgraded" to a non smoking room, bro in law will have to pay RMB50 more a night. They just agreed as we were dead tired from traveling so far. But this just goes to show that there seems to be something terribly wrong with this hotel. After all that brouhaha about promos and discounts, smoking or non smoking, when we checked out, the front desk actually forgot to charge my bro in law that add'l RMB50!!!

"Good Choice"
Eight minute walk from main shopping and eating areas and although other restaurants in direct area were more expensive a meal in the hotel cost only $22 for two. Quiet and relaxing however stairs to negotiate main road could cause problems for those with handicaps.Otherwise a good stay.Genuine Expedia guest review

good value, no problems with the hotelGenuine Expedia guest review
The reasons I do not recomond this Hotel because the front desk clerk try to rip me off. The cost of Tax from the Hotel to airport should be HK $80.00 instead he tell would cost me $ 300.00,Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent value"
I live in Hong Kong, so I use this hotel every time I visit Guangzhou, which is at least twice a year. We used to stay in the East building, but since they renovated the West building, we prefer to stay there. This hotel is excellent value and the buffet breakfast is of decent quality. I have stayed at 5 star hotels many times, but prefer staying here […] due to location, service (as in no complaints), and bang for your buck. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Lovely hotel and very reasonably priced"
Shamian Dao is a great location, which is much quieter than the rest of Guangzhou. Early in the morning, locals are out on the street playing badminton on the footpath and doing tai chi. We stayed in an Executive Room in the West Building (which contrary to many of the reviews we read is actually the older building, although recently renovated). The […] only downside is that the gym and other facilities are around the corner in the East building, but it's a short walk. We found the staff to be generally helpful and to have pretty competent English (not perfect, but pretty good). The food on Shamian Dao is much more expensive and touristy compared to other areas. Consider walking across the canal, past the Qingping market (also called the medicine market) and down the side streets to eat in little hole in the wall places (if you're adventurous).

"Great location poor room condition & cleanliness"
Rooms not clean, very small even by Chinese standards. Bathroom, carpet and walls all in bad state of disrepair and we checked several different rooms to confirm if ours was a one-off. It wasn't. Staff friendly enough, nice hotel surrounds and location. Would not stay here again, I have stayed in many hotels in China that I would recommend before this […] one.

"Located in old westernized town"
Good location as it's in the old westernized area. Metro station is not close, you need to take taxi to the hotel. If you don't have a big baggage you can walk. Main building (West building) is traditional and a little old, while East building is nice and clean, but not bar at site. Overall, it's a nice hotel.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good hotel overall. Great location."
Got a cheap "standard" room, as it was the Canton fair and rooms were double the price everywhere. So I had no window, and the wallpaper really needed to be replaced. But the location is great, and the service excellent. Overall, I would go back (but in a better room!)Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Don't skimp"
The executive rooms in the west building, (older than the east but renovated in 2007), provides free internet and free breakfast, (we saved over $100). The buffet is outstanding, featuring easter/western fare. The room is spacious and we had a large, private balcony on the third floor. Romantic setting and a large, clean bathroom. Very comfortable […] bed. The only complaint for this traveler was the cost to print a document in the business center...this adds up and is unnecessary. Overall, a great hotel in a great location...Shamian Island is a special place in China and Guangzhou! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"A nice hotel which is value for money"
I am very satisfied with the quality of the hotel. The surrounding is nice, the staffs are helpful and the room is clean and well-equipped. I think this hotel is much better than the other hotels which are twice more expensive in the same region. Besides, I am happy with the internet service provided, which is free-of-charge. It would be even greater […] if breakfast coupons were provided instead of tea coupons. But anyway, this hotel is comfortable and good for business trip. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Very Good Hotel"
We were transferred free of charge by golf cart to the metro station when we checked out, which was also very impressive. In all we had a very pleasant stay in this hotel. Only minor complaints: why the hotel didn't want to change AUD? Lucky we had some HKD in hand otherwise at that night we would have been unable to go out to shop.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Guangdong Victory Western Annexe, Shamian Is, Guan"
A well located hotel in peaceful green surrounds, but close to everything via the nearby Metro and riverside walkways. On arrival despite the highly discounted rate we'd paid, we were upgraded to a suite - a spacious room with large balcony, overlooking attractive parks. Breakfast choices were somewhat limited, but well priced. Highly recommendedGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Most comfortable stay ever!"
I was only planning on a one night stay for my business trip. Due to unforeseen circumstances i had to extend my trip for another night. Although the hotel was a little pricey, I was willing to pay for it. I had enjoyed my first night in the room, the queen sized bed was so soft and comfortable and i had it all to myself! Overall the cleanliness was […] 5 out of 5 stars. On my second night, complimentary fruit was served. While i was out, my room was made for the 2nd time that day, a little sweet treat placed on my pillow to wish me goodnight, which i thought was a nice touch and put a smile on my face. Having stayed in many hotels in China, i must say I am impressed by the decor, the impeccable service and the cleanliness. Good work! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"En Oase i Guangzhou"
Guangdong Victory Hotel er opdelt i to bygninger - en vest og en øst. Jeg har kun været i hotellets vestbygning. Executive Double Room var meget stort og komfortabelt med alt i udstyr man har brug for - endda computer på værelset. Rengøringen var rigtig god - og man havde fornemmelsen af der blev hygget lidt om en - bamse på sengen osv. Hotellet har […] gratis WLAN dog meget ustabilt. Morgenmaden var stor buffet med alt hvad hjertet kan begære - også hvis man ikke kan lide kinesisk mad. Fitnessrummet var godt udrustet med maskiner i god kvalitet. Området omkring hotellet er fantastisk. Shamian øen er bygget i kolonistil med mange flotte bygninger og grønne arealer. På Shamian kan man vågne til fuglefløjt!

"係check in慢左d,其他都唔錯。"
原來呢間酒店分東西兩座,訂時無為意自己訂既係邊座,去到東座時攪左十幾分鐘先知係西座.....西座似乎係新的,Executive Double Room,所有野都唔錯,有個露台,幾大下,重有部電腦,有wifi,由於當日全日大雨,我地響房都唔覺悶,不過個wifi成日斷線,唔係好得。食早餐地方好開揚,食物ok。 環境唔錯,好靜,易搵野食,交通方便,由門口行去地鐵都係幾分鐘,渡假來講非常唔錯。Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Bra hotell i lugnt och charmigt område."
Ett perfekt ställe att koppla av på efter en lång dag. Sängarna är mjuka vilket inte alltid är fallet på kinesiska hotell. Bra restauranger, en Starbucks nära hotellet och ett lugnt och charmigt område att flanera i. En av Kantons största shoppinggator ligger 15 minuters promenad bort genom den intressanta medicinmarknaden. Skall man till mässan så […] har hotellet en shuttlebuss dit och tillbaka varje dag, (ca 40minuter). Vi bor här varje år. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

L'hotel est situé sur l'île de Shamian qui est l'ancien quartier européen franco britannique.

"chambre désuet d'une ambiance "néocoloniale""
très bonnes, emplacement très très pratique, proche du métro sur une île - le petit déjeuner compris dans le prix n'était pas forcément tout à fait frais ce qui est certainement du à une surcapacité de l'hôtel par rapport au nombre de personnes effectivement présentesGenuine Hotels.com guest review
