XINHAOMEI INTERNATIONAL HOTEL

Really enjoyed my stay and wish I had stayed at the this place a few months earlier when I had also come to Panyu. The hotel is near everything ... Food.. trains.. shopping .. and the factories which I was here to visit. One of the main features they promote is the comfort of their beds, with funny videos on repeat in the elevators (couldn't understand them but it was clear what they are about)... And they aren't lying. Probably the most comfortable sleep I have had in a long time. The breakfast is also okay, not great, but they rotate food every day (I was at hotel for a week). The one drawback is they do not have no smoking rooms. The room I was in didn't smell though so maybe they have fabric that doesn't hold the smoke. But if you are super sensitive probably not the best place. Also no one speaks English... Even basic requests like a late check out is really hard to communicate.. so bring a translation app. But even then they don't seem to understand the basic requests that guest would often make. Overall though I highly recommend the hotel.

The check in process took longer than I thought. The Chinese staff at front desk had difficulty to trace my reservation. And she had problem to use my English name to match the reservation. Probably there are not many guests using hotels.com to book at their hotel.

The location is close to the walking streeet with lots of things to eat nearby. It's situated in a busy district, yet the room is quiet and comfortable. The Chinese buffet breakfast is good too, with a variety of choices to choose from. If they can provide some coffee with better quality, not just 3-in-1, that will be awesome.
